IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance is not intended for use by children, persons with physical or mental disabilities, persons with reduced

sensory or mental capacity, or persons with lack of experience or know-how, unless they have supervision or instruction

in relation to the use of the appliance by the person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to

assure that they do not play with the appliance.

Children becoming trapped or suffocated is not

a problem of the past. Discarded and abandoned

refrigerators are a hazard, even if they remain there

“for just a few days”. If you would like to dispose of

your old refrigerator, please follow the instructions

below to prevent any accidents.

BEFORE DISPOSING YOUR REFRIGERATOR OR

FREEZER WHEN NO LONGER IN USE:

• Remove the doors.

• Leave the shelves in place so that children cannot

easily become stuck in them.

Your old refrigerator may have a cooling system that

uses CFC’s (chlorofluorocarbons). CFC affects the

stratospheric layer of the ozone.

If you decide to throw out your old refrigerator, ensure

that CFC contaminants are properly disposed of by a

qualified professional. If you intentionally remove the

CFC refrigerant, you could be subject to fines or prison in

accordance with environmental legislation in effect.

IMPORTANT: Attentively read the following.

TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY

WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

FOR YOUR PERSONAL SAFETY, this appliance must

be properly grounded. Have a qualified electrician

check your wall outlet to ensure that the plug is

grounded properly.

RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD

Your refrigerator must always be plugged to its own outlet

which is adequately grounded. The energy current should

only be 115 V, 60 Hz, A. C. and fused at 15 or 20 A. This

provides the best performance and prevents an overload

which could cause a fire from the overheating of the

cables. It is recommended that a separate circuit be used

for this appliance, as well as a receptacle that cannot be

disconnected with a switch.

Do not use an extension cable.

It is your responsibility and obligation to replace two-

prong outlets with that of an adequately grounded three-

prong outlet.

Do not, under any circumstance, cut or extract the third

prong from the plug.

NOTE: Before installation, cleaning or replacing light

bulbs, you must disconnect the appliance from

the power source. When finished, plug the

appliance back in and adjust the thermostat to

the desired position.

USE OF EXTENSION CABLES

We do not recommend the use of extension cables.

However, if you still choose to utilize an extension cable,

it is absolutely necessary that it is listed in the UL (in the

United States) or CSA (in Canada), that it supports three-

pronged plugs and that the electrical current support a

minimum of 15 A and 120 V.

The use of an extension cable will increase the amount of

space needed behind the refrigerator.

WARNING

REPLACING ELECTRICAL CABLE

If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by

our service center or qualified LG technician to avoid

any risk.
