OPERATION
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.
Door Open Alarm
The alarm sounds 3 times in 30 second intervals if the door is left open or not completely closed for 1 minute.
• Contact the LG Electronics customer information centre if the alarm sound continues even after closing all doors.
Suggestion for Energy Saving
• 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.
• 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.
• The automatic defrosting system in the appliance ensures that the compartment remains free of ice buildup under normal operating conditions.
Storing Foods Effectively
• 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 (more than 4 weeks) 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.
NOTE
global_main.book.book Page 13 Friday, June 5, 2020 2:36 PM
• 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.

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.
Freezing the Maximum Amount of Food
If large quantities of food are to be stored, the icemaker should be taken out of the appliance and the food should be stacked directly on the freezer shelves in the freezer compartment.
• Insert the icemaker in the right position.

Automatic Icemaker
Before Using the In-Door Icemaker
• The first ice and water dispensed may include particles or odour from the water supply line or the water tank.
• If discolored ice is dispensed, check the water tank and the water supply for a possible source. If the problem continues, contact the LG Electronics customer information centre. Do not use the ice or water until the problem is corrected.
• Do not touch the automatic icemaker with your hand or a tool.
• Do not remove the cover of the automatic icemaker.
• Dispose of the ice inside the ice bin if you go on vacation or if an extended power outage occurs.
• Be careful not to spill water when pushing the ice tray.
• The icemaker produces ice normally when approximately 48 hours have passed after the appliance is initially installed.
NOTE
global_main.book.book Page 21 Friday, June 5, 2020 2:36 PM
• If the ice bin is completely filled with ice, ice production will stop.
• Sound of ice dropping into the ice bin is normal.
• If ice cubes are stored in the ice bin for a long period of time, they may clump together and may not be separated easily. In such a case, empty the ice bin and allow fresh ice to be made.
In-Door Icemaker
The automatic icemaker can automatically make 40-84 cubes at a time, within a 24-hour period if conditions are favorable. This amount may vary according to the environment (ambient temperature around the appliance, frequency of the door being opened, amount of food stored in the appliance, etc.).

Normal Sounds You May Hear
The icemaker water valve will buzz as the icemaker fills with water. If the power switch is in the ON (|) position, it will buzz even if it has not yet been hooked up to water. To stop the buzzing, move the power switch to OFF (O).
• Do not keep the power turned on to the icemaker if the water line is not connected. Doing so can damage the icemaker.
Preparing for Vacation
If the ambient temperature will drop below freezing, have a qualified technician drain the water supply system to prevent serious property damage due to flooding caused by ruptured water lines or connections. Set the icemaker power switch to OFF (O) and shut off the water supply to the appliance.
