Grounding requirement
Your refrigerator must be grounded. Your refrigerator is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding
plug. The plug must be inserted into an outlet that is correctly installed and grounded.
Incorrect use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or service person if
the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether your refrigerator is correctly
grounded.
Electrical Connection
WARNING
This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a
three-prong plug which mates with the standard three prong wall outlets to minimize the possibility of electrical shock.
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord supplied.
This refrigerator appliance requires a standard 115VAC /60Hzelectrical outlet with three-prong ground.
This refrigerator appliance is not designed to be used with an inverter.
The cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling to prevent accidental injury.
Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the
receptacle.
Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. If the power cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or service
technician install an outlet near the appliance. Use of an extension cord can negatively affect the performance of the unit.
Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power cord is damaged, have it
replaced by an authorized service center.
Locks
If your Refrigerator is fitted with a lock, keep the key out of reach and not in the vicinity of the appliance to prevent children
being entrapped. When disposing of an old Refrigerator, break off any old locks or latches as a safeguard.
Freon-free
The freon-free refrigerant (R600a) and the foaming insulation material (cyclopentane) that is environmentally friendly are
used for the refrigerator, causing no damage to the ozone layer and having a very small impact on the global warming.
R600a is flammable, and sealed in a refrigeration system, without leakage during normal use. But, in case of refrigerant
leakage due to the refrigerant circuit being damaged, be sure to keep the appliance away from open flames and open the
windows for ventilation as quickly as possible.
