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:
•Removethedoors.
•Leavetheshelvesinplacesothatchildrencannot
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.

3 prong Ensure proper
grounding ground exists
plug before use
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.
