WARNING

CAUTION

DANGER

Child entrapment and suffocation are not

problems of the past. Junked or abandoned

refrigerators are still dangerous…even if they will

sit for just a few days. If you are getting rid of

your old refrigerator, please follow the

instructions at right to help prevent accidents.

BEFORE YOU THROW

AWAY YOUR OLD

REFRIGERATOR OR

FREEZER

• Take off the doors.

• Leave the shelves in place so

that children may not easily

climb inside.

DANGER:

RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT

CFC DISPOSAL

Your old refrigerator may have a cooling system

that used CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons). CFCs are

believed to harm stratospheric ozone.

If you are throwing away your old refrigerator,

make sure the CFC refrigerant is removed for

proper disposal by a qualified servicer. If you

intentionally release this CFC refrigerant, you can

be subject to fines and imprisonment under

provisions of environmental legislation.

GROUNDING REQUIREMENTS

IMPORTANT: Please read carefully.

TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY

RECOMMENDED GROUNDING

METHOD

The refrigerator should always be plugged into its

own individual properly grounded electrical outlet

rated for 230 Volts, 50 Hz, AC only, and fused at

15 or 20 amperes.

This provides the best performance and also

prevents overloading house wiring circuits which

could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.

It is recommended that a separate circuit serving

only this appliance be provided.

Use a receptacle which cannot be turned off with

a switch or pull chain. Do not use an extension

cord.

Where a standard two-prong wall outlet is

encountered, it is your personal responsibility and

obligation to have it replaced with a properly

grounded three-prong wall outlet.

Do not, under any circumstances, cut or

remove the third (ground) prong from the

power cord.

NOTE: Before performing any type of installation,

cleaning,or removing a light bulb, turn the control

(Thermostat, Refrigerator Control or Freezer

Control, depending on the model)to OFF and

then disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical

source. When you are finished,reconnect the

refrigerator to the electrical source and reset the

control (Thermostat, Refrigerator Control or

Freezer Control, depending on the model) to the

desired setting.

• Repair or replace immediately all electric service

cords that have become frayed or otherwise

damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or

abrasion damage along its length or at either the

plug or connector end.

• When moving your refrigerator away from the wall,

be careful not to roll over or damage the power

cord.

• Keep fingers out of pinch point areas; clearances

between the doors and cabinet are necessarily

small. Be careful closing doors when children are

in the area.

• This refrigerator must be properly installed in

accordance with the Attention Installer

Instructions that were taped to the front of the

refrigerator.

• Don’t touch the lamp, in case of light on the long

time, Because it can be very hot.

• DO NOT refreeze frozen foods which have thawed

completely. The United States Department of

Agriculture in Home and Garden Bulletin No. 69

says:

…You may safely refreeze frozen foods that have

thawed if they still contain ice crystals or if they

are still cold—below 4°C.

…Thawed ground meats, poultry or fish that have

any off-odor or off-color should not be refrozen

and should not be eaten. Thawed ice cream

should be discarded. If the odor or color of any

food is poor or questionable, get rid of it.

The food may be dangerous to eat.

Even partial thawing and refreezing reduces the

eating quality of foods, particularly fruits,

vegetables and prepared foods. The eating quality

of red meats is affected less than that of many

other foods. Use refrozen foods as soon as

possible to save as much of their quality as you

can.

can be independently opened or closed.

You will have to exert slight pressure on the

doors to close them completely.

NOTE: In order not to move the refrigerator back

and forth, fix it with the 'Adjust' to the floor to

install and use.

USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

ENSURING PROPER AIR

CIRCULATION

In order to ensure proper temperatures, air must

flow between the refrigerator and freezer

sections. As shown in the illustration below, air

enters at top of freezer and circulates down.

From bottom of freezer, air is forced up to top of

refrigerator. Air enters refrigerator through top

vent, then circulates and exists at bottom, where

it returns to freezer.

MULTI-FLOW

• Multi-Flow means powerful and effective cooling

operation. This is especially noticeable when

new food is placed in the refrigerator

compartment.

• If water or foreign substances enter the cool air

vent while cleaning, efficiency will be lowered. In

addition, if gasket is damaged, efficiency may

be lowered because of escaping cool air.

Do not block any of cool air vents with food

packages. If the vents are blocked, airflow will be

interrupted and temperature and moisture

problems may occur.

IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between

both sections, any odors formed in one section

will transfer to the other. You must thoroughly

clean both sections to eliminate odors. To

prevent odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap

or cover foods tightly. (See the Food Storage

Guide section for details.)

SETTING THE CONTROLS

• Your refrigerator has two controls that let you

regulate the temperature in the freezer and

refrigerator compartments.

• Initially set the REFRIGERATOR CONTROL at

3°C and the FREEZER CONTROL at –18°C.

Leave it at this setting for 24 hours (one day) to

stabilize. Then adjust the compartment

temperature as desired.

• Refrigerator control: 0°C to 8°C

The lower the number setting, the colder the

refrigerator compartment will become.

• Freezer control: –21°C to –13°C

When the setting is at a lower number, the

freezer compartment becomes colder. But the

refrigerator compartment becomes warmer

because less cold air flows into the refrigerator.

• Express Freezing:

Press the Express Freezing key and the LED

will turn on. This function will remain activated

for 24 hours and intensify the cooling speed of

freezer and increase the amount of ice.
