Safety Information
Before using your new wine cellar, please read this manual thoroughly to ensure that
you know how to operate the features and functions that your new appliance offers
safely and efficiently.
•This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless
they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliance.
•Because the following instructions cover various models, the characteristics of your
wine cellar may differ slightly from the wine cellar described in this manual.
•If you have any question, contact us at 1-800-SAMSUNG or find help and information
online at www.samsung.com.
•Refrigerant squirting out of the pipes could ignite or cause an eye injury. When
refrigerant leaks from the pipe, avoid any naked flames and move anything flammable
away from the product and ventilate the room immediately.
- Failing to do so may result in fire or explosion.
What you need to know about the safety instructions
•Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. If it is
necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-
blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance.
The marked rating of the extension cord should be AC 115-120 V, 10 A, or more. If a
grounding adapter is used, make sure the receptacle box is fully grounded.

- This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading of house wiring
circuits, which could overheat the wires and cause a fire hazard.
•If the wall socket is loose, do not insert the power plug.
- There is a risk of electric shock or fire.
•Do not use a power cord that has cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at
either end.
•Do not bend the power cord excessively or place heavy objects on it.

•Do not store explosive substances such as aerosol cans with a flammable propellant in
this appliance.
•Do not install this appliance near flammable material.
•Do not install this appliance in a location where gas may leak.
- This may result in an electric shock or fire.
•This wine cellar must be properly located and installed in accordance with the
instructions in this manual before you use it.
