switch it on.

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

The alarm sounds 3 times in 30 second intervals if

the fridge door is left open or not completely

closed for 1 minute.

NOTE

• Contact the LG Electronics customer information

centre if the alarm sound continues even after

closing all doors.

High Temperature Alarm

The high temperature alarm is a function that

warns when the temperature of the freezer

increases enough to be a problem. The freezer

temperature display LED flashes and the alarm

sounds.

• This alarm sounds in the following cases:

- When the appliance is turned on for the first

time (therefore the freezer temperature is

high).

- When the freezer door is open for a long time

or opens very frequently.

- When the power goes out for a long period of

time.

- When larger amounts of hot food are placed

into the freezer.

Turning off the Alarm

Press the

Freezer

button until the alarm stops

ringing.

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.

OPERATION

ENGLISH

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

• Do not overfill the appliance. Cold air can not

circulate properly if the appliance is overfilled.

• 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 24 hours and automatically

switches off.

•

Express Freeze

must be switched on for 7 hours

before fresh products are placed in the freezer

compartment.

• To freeze food items quickly, store the food in

the top drawer. Food items will freeze most

quickly in the drawer.

• 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 shall be taken out of the appliance

and the food shall 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.
