Safety information _03
• The refrigerator must be safely grounded.
- Always make sure that you have grounded the
refrigerator before attempting to investigate or repair
any part of the appliance. Power leakages can cause
severe electric shock.
• Never use gas pipes, telephone lines or other
potential lightning attractors as an electrical ground.
- Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk

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 AC115-120 V,
10 A, or more. If a grounding adapter is used, make
sure the receptacle box is fully grounded.
• If the power cord is damaged, have it replaced
immediately by the manufacturer or its service agent.
