• Immediately unplug the power plug and contact an LG Electronics 
customer information centre if you detect a strange sound, odour, or 
smoke coming from the appliance.
• Do not place hands or metallic objects inside the area emitting the 
cold air, cover or heat releasing grille on the back.
• Do not apply excessive force or impact to the back cover of the 
appliance.
• Be careful of nearby children when you open or close the appliance 
door. The door may bump the child and cause injury.
• Avoid the danger of children getting trapped inside the appliance. A 
child trapped inside the appliance can cause suffocation.
• Do not put animals, such as pets into the appliance.

combustible gas. Gas leakage during appliance transport, installation 
or operation can cause fire, explosion or injury if sparks are caused.

benzene, alcohol, chemical, LPG, combustible spray, insecticide, air 
freshener, cosmetics, etc.) near the appliance.
