OPERATION
ENGLISH
OPERATION
Before Use
Notes for Operation
Users should keep in mind that frost can form if
the door is not closed completely or if the
humidity is high during the summer.
Ensure there is sufficient space between food
stored on the shelf or door basket to allow the
door to close completely.
Opening the door for long periods can cause a
significant increase of the temperature in the
compartments of the appliance.
If the refrigerating appliance is left empty for
long periods, switch off, defrost, clean, dry, and
leave the door open to prevent mould
developing within the appliance.
Note that a temperature rise after defrosting has
a permissible range in the appliance
specifications. If you wish to minimise the impact
on the food storage due to a temperature rise,
seal or wrap the stored food in several layers.
Door Open Alarm
This feature is only available on some models.
The alarm sounds if the door is left open or not
completely closed.
NOTE
Contact the LG Electronics customer information
centre if the alarm sound continues even after
closing all doors.
Failure Detection
The appliance can automatically detect problems
during the operation.
NOTE
If a problem is detected, the appliance may not
operate and an error code is displayed even
when any button is pressed.
If an error code is indicated on the display, do
not turn off the power. Immediately contact the
LG Electronics customer information centre and
report the error code. If you turn off the power,
the repair technician from the our information
centre may have difficulty finding the problem.
Suggestion for Energy Saving
For the most efficient use of energy, keep all
inner parts (e.g. door bins, drawers and shelves)
on their original location.
Ensure there is sufficient space between stored
foods. This allows cold air to be circulated evenly
and lowers electricity bills.
Store hot food only after it has cooled in order to
prevent dew or frost.
When storing food in the freezer compartment,
set the freezer temperature lower than the
temperature indicated on the food.
Do not set the temperature of the appliance
lower than needed.
Do not put food near the temperature sensor of
the fridge compartment. Keep a distance of at
least 3 cm from the sensor.
Storing Foods Effectively
Food may freeze or spoil if stored at the wrong
temperature. Set the refrigerator to the correct
temperature for the food being stored.
Store frozen food or refrigerated food inside
sealed containers.
Check the expiration date and label (storage
instructions) before storing food in the
appliance.
Do not store food for a long period of time if it
spoils easily at a low temperature.
Do not place unfrozen food in direct contact with
food that is already frozen. It could be necessary
to reduce the quantity to be frozen if freezing
every day is anticipated.
background
20
OPERATION
Place the refrigerated food or frozen food in
each fridge or freezer compartment
immediately after purchasing.
Store raw meat and fish in suitable containers in
the refrigerator, so that it is not in contact with or
drip onto other food.
Refrigerated foods and other food items can be
stored on top of the vegetable drawer.
Avoid refreezing any food which has been
completely thawed. Freezing any food which has
been completely thawed again will lower its taste
and nutrition.
Do not overfill the appliance. Cold air can not
circulate properly if the appliance is overfilled.
Cool hot food before storing. If too much hot
food is placed inside, the internal temperature of
the appliance can increase and negatively affect
other foods stored in the appliance.
If you set an excessively low temperature for
food, it may become frozen. Do not set a
temperature lower than the required
temperature for the food to be stored correctly.
If there are chill compartments in the appliance,
do not store vegetables and fruits with higher
moisture content in the chill compartments as
they may freeze due to the lower temperature.
In the event of a blackout, call the electricity
company and ask how long it is going to last.
- You should avoid door openings while the
power is off.
- When the power supply gets back to normal,
check the condition of the food.
Maximum Freezing Capacity
For maximum freezing capacity, set the freezer
temperature to the coldest temperature setting.
Express Freeze
function will allow the freezer to
reach its maximum freezing capacity. This
generally takes up to 52 hours and automatically
switches off.
Express Freeze
must be switched on for 6 hours
before fresh products are placed in the freezer
compartment.
To freeze food items quickly, store the food on
the left side of the top shelf. If you need to store
more food, store it on the shelves in order
starting from the top shelf. Food items will freeze
most quickly in the zone.
To get better air circulation, insert all inner parts
like baskets, drawers, and shelves.
NOTE
The max freezing capacity of your appliance is
stated on the rating label inside the fridge
compartment.
Freezing the Maximum Amount
of Food
If large quantities of food are to be stored, all the
freezer drawers should be taken out of the
appliance and the food should be stacked directly
on the freezer shelves in the freezer compartment.
CAUTION
To remove the drawers, first remove the food
from drawers and then pull out the drawers
carefully. Not doing so could cause injury or
damage to the drawers.
NOTE
The shape of each drawer may be different,
insert in the right position.
Two Star Compartment
Two star (
a
) basket or drawer can be used to
store ice and food from -12 °C to -18 °C for short
periods.
Two star frozen food compartments are suitable
for storing pre-frozen food, storing or making
icecream and making ice cubes.
Two star compartments are not suitable for the
freezing of fresh food.

Ice and Water Dispenser
Before Using the Ice and Water
Dispenser
CAUTION
Keep children away from the dispenser to
prevent children playing with or damaging the
controls.
Throw away the first few batches of ice (about 20
cubes and 7 cups of water). This is also necessary
if the appliance has not been used for a long
time.
Clean the water dispensing system if they have
not been used for 48 hours. Flush the water
system connected to a water supply if water has
not been drawn for 5 days.
To clean the water dispensing system, flush the
water through the dispenser about 5 minutes
and throw away the first few batches of ice.
Do not use a thin crystal cup or chinaware when
dispensing water or ice.
NOTE
If you open the freezer door while water, cubed
ice or crushed ice is being dispensed, dispensing
will be paused. When you close the door, the
selected item will continue to be dispensed.
If the cup rim is small, water may splash out of
the glass or miss it completely.
Use a cup with a rim of over 68 mm in diameter
when dispensing water, cubed ice or crushed ice.
When the ice maker produces smaller ice cubes,
or the cubes become lumped together, the
amount of water supplied to the ice maker may
be low due to insufficient water in the water
tank. If ice is not used frequently or the freezer
set temperature is too warm, it may also lump
together.
It is normal for milky / cloudy water to be
dispensed after replacing the water filter. This
air in the water will eventually clear and is safe to
drink during this transition.

MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
General Cleaning Tips
Performing manual defrosting, maintenance or
cleaning of the appliance while food is stored in
the freezer can raise the temperature of the food
and reduce its storage life.
Regularly clean any surfaces that can come in
contact with food.
When cleaning the inside or outside of the
appliance, do not wipe it with a rough brush,
toothpaste, or flammable materials. Do not use
cleaning agents containing flammable
substances. This may cause discolouration or
damage to the appliance.
- Flammable substances: alcohol (ethanol,
methanol, isopropyl alcohol, isobutyl alcohol,
etc.), thinner, bleach, benzene, flammable
liquid, abrasive, etc.
After cleaning, check if the power cable is
damaged.
Cleaning the Exterior
When cleaning the outside air vents of the
appliance by means of vacuuming, then the
power cord should be unplugged from the outlet
to avoid any static discharge that can damage
the electronics or cause an electric shock.
Regular cleaning of the rear and side ventilation
covers is recommended to maintain reliable and
economical operation of the unit.
Keep the air vents on the exterior of the
appliance clean. Blocked air vents can cause fire
or appliance damage.
For the appliance exterior, use a clean sponge or
soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.
Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners. Dry
thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use
contaminated cloths when cleaning the stainless
steel doors. Always use a dedicated cloth and
wipe in the same direction as the grain. This
helps reduce surface staining and tarnishing.
Cleaning the Interior
When removing a shelf or drawer from inside
the appliance, remove all stored foods from the
shelf or drawer to prevent injury or damage to
the appliance. Otherwise, injury may occur due
to the weight of stored foods.
Detach the shelves and drawers and clean them
with water, and then dry them sufficiently,
before replacing them.
Regularly wipe the door gaskets with a wet soft
towel.
Door basket spills and stains should be cleaned
as they can compromise storage ability of the
basket and could even be damaged.
Never clean the shelves or containers in the
dishwasher. The parts may become deformed
due to the heat.
The automatic defrosting system in the
appliance ensures that the compartment
remains free of ice buildup under normal
operating conditions. Users do not need to
defrost it manually.
Cleaning the Condenser Cover
Use a vacuum cleaner with a brush to clean the
condenser cover and vents. Do not remove the
panel covering the condenser coil area.
We recommend that this be done every 12 months
to maintain operating efficiency.
