Defrost regularly to avoid heavy frost building on the evaporator which results in reduced cooling efficiency.

Push the defrost Knob after every 3 days / Ice Level reaches defrost indicator.

Ice Making

Fill ice trays with water, place in freeze Box.

To remove ice cube, gently twist Ice Tray.

Do not use sharp tool to remove ice tray, otherwise you may puncture the evaporator resulting gas leakage thus non performance of refrigerator

How to get good results

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.

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

Never overload your refrigerator or cover the shelves with paper or plastic sheets as it will reduce its efficiency.

Close the door properly, make sure that there is no gap between the gasket and the cabinet of your LG refrigerator.

Wipe excessive moisture on food or place it inside containers or plastic bags. This will help in retaining its freshness for a longer period of time.

Feel free to call your LG Customer Information Centre (CIC) / Branch / LG Representative in case your refrigerator has suffered a damage in transit.
