I'm unclear about your question here: which "two files" are you referring to?
The leparc.ff02.pol.r1 file should be all you need. In fact, the default
water model there is TIP3P (non-polarizable). You need to specify something
like POL3 to get a polariable solvent.

This is determined automatically by whether there are non-zero
polarizabilities on the sovent atoms.

...good luck...dac
