NOTE

Water Line Installation Instructions

CAUTION

When using any electrical device (such as a power drill) during installation, be sure the device is battery powered, double insulated or grounded in a manner that will prevent the hazard of electric shock.

INSTALLATION

CHOOSE THE VALVE LOCATION

Choose a location for the valve that is easily accessible. It is best to connect into the side of a vertical water pipe. When it is necessary to connect into a horizontal water pipe, make the connection to the top or side, rather than at the bottom, to avoid drawing o any sediment from the water pipe.

DRILL THE HOLE FOR THE VALVE

Drill a ¼ in. (6.35 mm) hole in the water pipe using a sharp bit. Remove any burrs resulting from drilling the hole in the pipe. Be careful not to allow water to drain into the drill. Failure to drill a ¼ in. (6.35 mm) hole may result in reduced ice production or smaller cubes.

NOTE

The hookup line cannot be white, plastic tubing. Licensed plumbers must use only copper tubing (NDA tubing #49595 or #49599) or Cross Link Polyethylene (PEX) tubing.

FASTEN THE SHUTOFF VALVE

Fasten the shuto valve to the cold water pipe with the pipe clamp.

Leveling and Door Alignment

ENGLISH

Leveling

After installing, plug the refrigerator’s power cord into a 3-prong grounded outlet and push the refrigerator into the nal position.

Your refrigerator has two front leveling legs— one on the right and one on the left. Adjust the legs to alter the tilt from front-to-back or sideto-side. If your refrigerator seems unsteady, or you want the doors to close more easily, adjust the refrigerator’s tilt using the instructions below:

Turn the leveling leg to the left to raise

that side of the refrigerator or to the right to lower it. It may take several turns of the leveling leg to adjust the tilt of the refrigerator.

Door Alignment

If the space between your doors is uneven, follow the instructions below to align the doors.

Remove the top hinge cover screws.

Lift the hook located at the bottom of the front side of the cover with a at-head screwdriver.

Loosen the top hinge bolts using a 10mm

or 13/32 in. socket wrench or open-end wrench.

Have someone hold the refrigerator door

so the space between the two door is even, and retighten the top hinge bolts.

Replace the top hinge cover.

NOTE

A are nut wrench works best, but an open-end wrench will suce. Do not over-tighten.

Open the doors again and check to make

sure that they close easily. If the doors do not close easily, tilt the refrigerator slightly more to the rear by turning both leveling legs to the left. It may take several more turns, and you should turn both leveling legs the same amounts.

Food Storage Tips

* The following tips may not be applicable

depending on the model.

Wrap or store food in the refrigerator in airtight and moisture-proof material unless otherwise noted. This prevents food odor and taste transfer throughout the refrigerator. For dated products, check date code to ensure freshness.

Food How to

Butter or Margarine

Cheese

Milk

Eggs

Fruit

Keep opened butter in a covered dish or closed compartment. When storing an extra supply, wrap in freezer packaging and freeze.

Store in the original wrapping until you are ready to use it. Once opened, re-wrap tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil.

Wipe milk cartons. For coldest milk, place containers on interior shelf.

Store in the original carton on interior shelf, not on the door shelf.

Do not wash or hull the fruit until it is ready to be used. Sort and keep fruit in its original container, in a crisper, or store it in a completely closed paper bag on a refrigerator shelf.

Storing Frozen Food

NOTE

Check a freezer guide or a reliable cookbook for further information about preparing food for freezing or food storage times.

Freezing

Your freezer will not quick-freeze a large quantity of food. Do not put more unfrozen food into the freezer than will freeze within 24 hours (no more than 2 to 3 lbs. of food per cubic foot of freezer space). Leave enough space in the freezer for air to circulate around packages. Be careful to leave enough room at the front so the door can close tightly.

Storage times will vary according to the quality and type of food, the type of packaging or wrap used (how airtight and moisture-proof) and the storage temperature. Ice crystals inside a sealed package are normal. This simply means that moisture in the food and air inside the package have condensed, creating ice crystals.

NOTE

Allow hot foods to cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then package and freeze. Cooling hot foods before freezing saves energy.

SMART DIAGNOSIS

ENGLISH

Should you experience any problems with your refrigerator, it has the capability of transmitting data via your telephone to the LG service center. This allows you to speak 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 eective diagnosis.

If you experience problems with your refrigerator, call 1-800-243-0000 in USA (1-888-542-2623 in Canada). 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 1-800-243-0000 in USA (1-888-542-2623 in Canada). Only use the Smart Diagnosis feature when instructed to do so by the LG call center agent.

(Some models).

Press and hold the Freezer button for three

seconds while continuing to hold your phone to the speaker.

After you hear three beeps, release the

Freezer button.

Keep the phone in place until the tone

transmission has nished. This takes about 3 seconds, and the display will count down the time. Once the countdown is over and the tones have stopped, resume your conversation with the specialist, who will then be able to assist you in using the information transmitted for analysis.

NOTE

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.

Open the refrigerator door.

Hold the mouthpiece of your phone in front

of the speaker that is located on the right side of the control pad, when instructed to do so by the call center.

NOTE

Call quality dierences by region may aect the function.

Use the home telephone for better communication performance, resulting in better service.

Bad call quality may result in poor data transmission from your phone to the machine, which could cause Smart Diagnosis to malfunction.
