Requirements For Ground Connection; Recommended Grounding Method; Cfc Disposal - LG LTN16385PL Manual De Usuario

This appliance is not intended for use by children, persons with physical or mental disabilities, persons with reduced
sensory or mental capacity, or persons that lack 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.
Your old refrigerator may have a cooling system that
uses CFC's (chlorofluorocarbons). CFC affects the
stratospheric layer of the ozone.
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.
DANGER:
CHILDREN MAY BECOME TRAPPED

CFC DISPOSAL

REQUIREMENTS FOR GROUND CONNECTION

Ensure proper
ground exists
before use
CAUTION
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.
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.
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 LED, 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.
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.
