IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Do not puncture refrigerant tube
• R-600a is used as a refrigerant. This product contains flammable gas (Refrigerant R-600a)
• CAUTION: Risk of fire or explosion. Dispose of refrigerator and refrigerant in accordance with
federal and local regulations.
• When disposing of a refrigerator, remove doors, door seals, and door latches to avoid
entrapment of children and animals.
• In order to avoid the creation of a flammable gas-air mixture in the event that a leak in the
refrigerating circuit occurs, the size of the room in which the appliance may be placed depends
on the mass of the refrigerant loaded in the system. The room must be 35.3 ft3 in size for every
8 grams of R-600a refrigerant inside the appliance. Please refer to the rating label on the back
of the refrigerator to determine the amount of R-600A refrigerant used in this product.
• The installation location should not be exposed to direct sunlight and not placed near any
electrical appliance or heat source, e.g. stove, oven or hob, radiator, etc.

a natural gas with a high level of environmental compatibility, which is flammable. Be sure to
keep open flames, sources of ignition, and high heat sources away from the unit.
• Ensure that none of the refrigerant circuit components become damaged during transportation
and installation.
