OPERATION
Before Use
Notes for Operation
• Before placing food in the appliance, clean the
inside and outside of the appliance with warm
water and a mild washing-up liquid to remove
manufacturing residues.
• 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
The alarm sounds 3 times in 60 second intervals if
the door is left open or not completely closed for 2
minutes.
The alarm will stop automatically after 8 minutes.
NOTE
• Contact the LG Electronics customer information
centre if the alarm sound continues even after
closing all doors.
Failure Detection
If the indicator on the display panel flashes once
per second within 30 seconds of the refrigerator
being turned on, it indicates that a malfunction has
occurred.
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. Do not store
excessive amounts of fresh food.
- If you want to freeze food over several days,
only store up to about 2/3 of the maximum
freezing capacity.
• Freeze food in portion-sized quantities for faster
freezing, easier thawing and processing.
