Operation

Refrigerator Temperature Control

Specially designed knob gives your facility to control temperature inside Refrigerator.

Defrosting

It is natural for moisture in the air to condense on the cold surface. This leads to a regular build up of frost on the surface of the freezer and the cooling in the fresh food compartment. This frost accumulation reduces the cooling effect, thereby reducing efficiency. Therefore, periodic defrosting is necessary to ensure optimum performance.

The water in the drain tray evaporates by natural evaporation if defrosting is done once in two days. However, due to varied conditions of usage it is desirable to check the drain-tray occasionally and dispose of the water, if any, Please ensure that the chiller tray is in its correct position by pushing it to its correct position by pushing it to its extreme. Otherwise the defrosting water may fall over the contents of the refrigerator.

Manual Defrosting : However in some models, in case of defrosting or power failure the water directly accumulates in chiller tray, dispose off water directly from chiller tray by taking it out.

ICE MAKING

Fill ice trays with water, place in Freeze Box.

To remove ice cube, gently Twist Ice Tray.

SUGGESTIONS

SUGGESTIONS

Cover or wrap all foods that you put into your refrigerator with polythene or aluminium foil, preventing the mixing of flavours and to keep the food from drying. Do not store liquids in bottles in the freezer compartment since there is danger of their bursting.

λDon’t keep hot milk or hot food in your refrigerator. This will result in an increased temperature of other food in the fridge and may lead to deterioration.

λDon’t open the refrigerator door too often-hot air will enter and increase the temperature.

λDon’t keep the door open for more than 30 seconds at a time-cold air will rush out of the fridge.

λDon’t cover the shelves with paper or plastic sheets. This prevents air circulation inside the cabinet.

λDon’t use a knife or sharp instrument to remove the ice trays from the freezer or to remove the frost mechanically as it may damage the freezer coil.

λFridge will automatically switched off when the proper temperature is attained. Don’t switch off the fridge at night, this will create higher temperature inside the cabinet thus deteriorating stored foods.

λFeel free to call your LG Dealer or LG Representative in case your refrigerator has suffered and damage in transit. The Dealer or the Company Representative will assess the extent of damage and give you an estimate for repairs.

λDon’t switch on the refrigerator, unless a minimum period of four minutes lapses after it was switched off, either due to power failure or otherwise.

λDon’t allow food stuffs smeared with salt to come in direct contact with the freezer. It is a good practice to always keep the food in a container before placing in the freezer.

λDo not keep very hot objects on the table top since the plastic material may get damaged.

λDo not use or store inflammable materials like ether, benzene,

alcohol, medicine, LP gas, spray or cosmetics near or in the

refrigerator. It may cause explosion or fire.

λDo Not Modify or Extend the power cord length. It will cause electric Shock or fire.

λThe tempered glass on door can be broken by impact, do not touch the broken parts you may injured.

Safety : When disposing the refrigerator, remove the packing materials like gasket from the door. It may cause to lock

out the child.

USEFUL SUGGESTIONS

EXTERIOR -Use a lukewarm solution of mild soap or detergent to clean the durable finish of your refrigerator. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth and then dry.

INTERIOR - Regular cleaning of the interior and interior parts is recommended. If you have the Wash all compartments with a mild baking soda solution, then rinse and dry the compartment.

VACATION TIME - During average length vacations, you will probably find it best to leave the refrigerator in operation. Place freezable items in freezer for longer life. When you plan to be away for an extended period remove all food, disconnect the power cord, clean the interior throughly and leave each door OPEN to prevent odour formation.

POWER FAILURE - Most power failures are corrected in an hour or two and will not affect your refrigerator temperatures. However, you should minimize the number of door openings while the power is off. During power failures of longer duration, place a block of dry ice on top of your frozen packages.

IF YOU MOVE - Remove or securely fasten down all loose items inside the refrigerator. To avoid damaging the leveling screws, turn them all the way into the base.
