INSTALLATION OF THE REFRIGERATOR

1. UNPACKING

Before installing your refrigerator, remove any tape or temporary stickers. Do not remove any stickers that feature warnings, the model serial number or the technical label of the product located on the back of the refrigerator. To remove adhesive tape residue, rub it well with your fingers and a little liquid detergent. Clean with warm water and let dry.

Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable liquids or abrasive cleaning products to remove the adhesive tape or glue. These products can damage the surface of your refrigerator. The shelves come already installed in their factory position. Remove the shelves and replace them according to your spacing needs.

2. INSTALL IT AWAY FROM HEAT SOURCES AND HUMID AREAS

In places with high temperatures, freezing capacity can be affected and cause high consumption of electrical energy.

Never install in places with high humidity as this can cause oxidation and electric shock hazard.

3. THOUGH AND EVEN FLOOR

Your refrigerator must be leveled and placed on a strong floor. An unstable installation can produce noise and vibrations. If the floor is uneven, level the unit by twisting the height adjusting screw, this will eliminate unwanted sounds and vibrations.

4.5 cm FRONT TURN THE LEVELING SCREWS TO HEIGHT

4. AMBIENT TEMPERATURE

The refrigerator will work efficiently if room temperature is between 10 °C and 43 °C (50 °F and 109,4 °F).

5. A PROPER DISTANCE FROM ADJACENT ITEMS

Adequate air flow is needed for an efficient operation. Keep your refrigerator at a relative distance from other objects. Reduces distance between the unit and other nearby objects can diminish freezing capacity and rise consumption of electrical energy.

10 cm. 10 cm. 3 cm.

WARNING

EXCESSIVE WEIGHT HAZARD. Use the assistance of two or more persons to move or install the refrigerator. Not following these instructions may cause injury to the back and other parts of the body.

6. WAITING PERIOD

Wait at least an hour before connecting, after installation was completed.

7. CONNECTION

DANGER

FOR YOUR PERSONAL SAFETY, this device must be properly landed. Connect to a single undamaged socket. Not having proper installation will require you to call qualified personnel to achieve it.

Do not, under any circumstance, cut or extract the third prong from the plug.

It is your responsibility and obligation to replace two-prong outlets with that of an adequately grounded three-prong outlet.

Three terminal plug Duplex Outlet Make sure the connection is grounded

WARNING

REPLACING ELECTRICAL CABLE; if the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by our service center or qualified LG technician to avoid any risk. NEVER disconnect the refrigerator by pulling the power cord, always grip the plug firmly and disconnect it directly from the outlet.

USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

1. SHELVES

The shelves of your refrigerator can be adjusted to comply with your storage necessities; depending on the model you have it can include glass shelves or wired shelves. Storing your foods together and adjusting the shelves to different heights will ease to help you locate what you need. This also helps your refrigerator to stay shut longer which will save you energy.

IMPORTANT: While your refrigerator glass shelves are cold do not clean with hot or warm water. The glass shelves may break if exposed to rapid temperature changes or hard impacts. For your safety the glass shelves are made out of tempered glass so when at breaking they will fracture into tiny fragments.

NOTE: Be careful while moving or relocating the shelves, they are heavy. If moving the shelves is required keep in mind to locate them in a safe environment to prevent them from breaking.

Shelf (Refrigerator and Freezer)

Plastic Parts

Do not use abrasive, paper or rough products. These could damage the product.

Back Cover

In order to get an efficient performance of your refrigerator, clean the rear part of it at least twice a year.

Back Cover

The refrigerator does not work

• Check if any fuse is broken in the electric facility.
• Check if the power cord is correctly plugged.
• Check if the power outlet is not damaged.
• Identify if there are any high consume electrical appliances working at the same time, unplug the one that are not necessary.

There is a power interruption

• Check that no fuse is burned.
  • Check if the power cord is plugged.
• Check that the outlet is not damaged.
• Identify weather you have different high consumption equipment plugged at the same time, unplug the one you do not use.

The temperature of the refrigerator or the freezer is too warm or hot

• Check that the temperature control is in the right position.
• Place the refrigerator away from any heat sources or direct sunlight.
• Open the doors only when necessary.
  • There are too many food that block the air vents.
  • Don't let the doors open for too long.

I can hear some weird or abnormal sounds

• Check that the refrigerator is placed over an even leveled surface, if not, adjust the refrigerator using the leveling height adjusting screws.
• Remove the unnecessary object from the back or top of the refrigerator.
• Check that the voltage is the correct one, if not call your electric company.

There are some odors in the refrigerator

• Store all food in sealed containers.
• Frequently clean the refrigerator inside.

In case of a black out, call your electric company and ask how long it will last.

• In case of a 24 hour or less black out, do not open the refrigerator; this will keep the food fresh.
  • In case of a longer black out, do one of the following options:

• Pull out all of the frozen food and keep them in an ice chest.

• Put 2 lbs (0,907 Kg) of frozen ice (make sure you use gloves) for each square foot (28 L) inside the freezer. This task will preserve the food for 2 to 4 days. While handling dry ice (CO _2 ), wear gloves to protect your hands from frostbite.

• In case you do not possess neither ice chest or dry ice (CO2), consume your food as soon as possible.

REMEMBER: In a power failure, a full freezer stays cold longer than a partially filled one. A freezer full of meat stays cold longer than a freezer full of baked goods. If you see that food contains ice crystals, it may be safely refrozen, although the quality and flavor may be affected. If the condition of the food is poor or if you feel it unsafe, dispose of it.

Some humidity is formed in the cabinet's surface

• When the weather is humid is normal.
• The door might be opened, check that is properly closed.

The front part of the refrigerator is getting warm

• Do not worry, is part of the normal functioning of the refrigerator, and this happens in order to avoid condensation or "sweat".
• If this comes to happen, just clean with a dry piece of cloth.

The compressor works too frequently and for extended periods of time

• Check if the temperature controls are place in the maximum, if so, place then in the middle.
• Check that the doors are properly closed.
  • Do not store over heated products.
• Do not let the doors open for too long. Move away from any heat sources the refrigerator.

1. THE OVERALL PERFORMANCE OR EFFICIENCY OF YOUR REFRIGERATOR MIGHT BE AFFECTED IF:

• It is place near a heat source or humid area.
• You open the door frequently.
- If you introduce water or any object in the cold air vents.
• You block the air vents with food.
• You store hot food.

2. DURING VACATIONS WE RECOMMENDED YOU THE FOLLOWING:

• If the vacations are for a short period of time place the freezable food in the refrigerator.
• If you are going to be outside or away for a longer period of time, do the following:

→ Take out all food.
→ Unplug the power cord.
Leave the doors open to avoid bad odors.
→ Thoroughly clean the refrigerator.
→ Empty and clean the water bin not forgetting to purge the system (turning on the switch).
