CARE AND MAINTENANCE
FOODSTUFF STORAGE
• Do not store food which goes bad easily at low temperature, such as banana, and melon.
• Allow hot food to cool prior to storing. Placing hot food in the fridge-freezer could spoil other food, and lead to higher electric bills.
• When storing the food, use a container with a lid. This prevents moisture from evaporating, and helps food to keep its taste and nutrients.
• Do not block air vents with food. Smooth circulation of cold air keeps fridge-freezer temperature even.
• Do not open the door frequently. Opening the door lets warm air enter the fridge-freezer, and cause temperature to rise.
• To adjust the temperature control easily, do not store food near the temperature control dial.
• Never keep too many foods in door rack, as this may stop the door from fully closing.
• Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment - they may break when frozen.
• Do not refreeze food that has been thawed. This causes loss of taste and nutrition.
• If it is necessary to quickly freeze fresh foodstuffs, place them to the lower drawer of the freezing compartment and push the "QUICK FREEZE" button;
• Frozen foodstuffs should be stored packed (in polyethylene film, aluminum foil, etc.) in the freezing compartment;
• Volume of the upper drawer in the freezing compartment is the "two stars" section. Temperature inside this section does not rise above -12°C. This should be taken into account for storage of foodstuffs.
Energy-Saving Method
• Install the fridge in a shady,cool and well-ventilated place.
• Do not open and close the door frequently if not necessary.
• Please do not keep the door open for a long time, close door in the shortest time
Allow hot food to cool prior to storing.
• Too much food are not advised to be put in. Enough space should be kept for cool air circulating freely.
Do not set the temperature of refrigerator lower than needed. Do not put the food near the temperature sensor.
Food need’t store is not advised to be put in.
Place the deep-frozen food for thawing intorefrigerator; they can be used for cooling the refrigerator. Applicabe to some models only
Do not block air vents with food. Applicabe to some models only
CLEANING
1. Before cleaning, make sure that power supply is switched off;
2. Outside and inside, the refrigerator should be washed with a clean napkin wetted in warm water with a liquid detergent. Then wipe dry with a dry napkin;
3. After cleaning, make sure that the power cord is not damaged. Then tightly insert the plug to the power outlet.

• If the refrigerator is transported in cold season, unpack the refrigerator in a warm room and do not switch on it for at least 12 hours.
CAUTION!
Do not move or incline the refrigerator during its operation. Noise may occur in the compressor. This feature does not affect operability of the compressor.
REFRIGERATOR OPERATION FEATURES
Cracking noise may be heard due to thermal deformations of the refrigerator components. Typical sounds from activation of the thermostatic controller and compressor are normal sounds occurring during operation of electric equipment in the appliance. The refrigerant circulating inside the refrigeration system may calmly gurgle, even if the compressor is idle. Do not worry, this is absolutely normal. The following sounds may be heard during operation of the refrigerator:
- Clicks from actuation of the temperature sensor/switch;
- Murmur of the refrigerant circulating in tubes of the refrigeration system;
- Slight cracking noise from thermal deformations of materials. These sounds are not associated with any defect and they have a functional aspect.
ANTI-CONDENSATION TUBE:
• The anti-condensation tube is laid inside the enclosure around the front face of the refrigerator to exclude moisture condensation;
• The refrigerator may greatly heat up in these places, especially immediately after switching on for the first time or at high ambient temperature.

SMART DIAGNOSIS
SMART DIAGNOSIS(Option)
Should you experience any problems with your refrigerator, it has the capability of transmitting data via your telephone to the LG service center. This gives you the capability of speaking directly to our trained specialists. The specialist records the data transmitted from your machine and uses it to analyze the issue, providing a fast and effective diagnosis.
If you experience problems with your refrigerator, call the phone No. of LG Customer Information Center. Only use the Smart Diagnosis feature when instructed to do so by the LG call center agent. The transmission sounds that you will hear are normal and sound similar to a fax machine.
Smart Diagnosis cannot be activated unless your refrigerator is connected to power. If your refrigerator is unable to turn on, then troubleshooting must be done without using Smart Diagnosis.
Using Smart Diagnosis
First, call the phone No. of LG Customer Information Center. Only use the Smart Diagnosis feature when instructed to do so by the LG call center agent.

For best results, do not move the phone while the tones are being transmitted. If the call center agent is not able to get an accurate recording of the data, you may be asked to try again.
