CARE AND MAINTENANCE

FOODSTUFF STORAGE Do not store food which goes bad easily at low temperature, such as banana, and melon. Allow hot food to cool prior to storing. Placing hot food in the fridge-freezer could spoil other food, and lead to higher electric bills. When storing the food, use a container with a lid. This prevents moisture from evaporating, and helps food to keep its taste and nutrients. Do not block air vents with food. Smooth circulation of cold air keeps fridge-freezer temperature even. Do not open the door frequently. Opening the door lets warm air enter the fridge-freezer, and cause temperature to rise. To adjust the temperature control easily, do not store food near the temperature control dial. Never keep too many foods in door rack, as this may stop the door from fully closing. Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment - they may break when frozen. Do not refreeze food that has been thawed. This causes loss of taste and nutrition. If it is necessary to quickly freeze fresh foodstuffs, place them to the lower drawer of the freezing compartment and push the "QUICK FREEZE" button; Frozen foodstuffs should be stored packed (in polyethylene film, aluminum foil, etc.) in the freezing compartment;

1.

2. For products with a stainless steel exterior, use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mildDetergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners. Dry thoroughly with a Soft cloth. Do not use appliance wax, bleach, or other products containing chlorine on stainless steel.

It is prohibited to use abrasive materials, gasoline, benzene, solvents, hydrochloride, hot water, hard brushes, etc., which may damage the refrigerator surface.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

GENERAL

Electric power failure. An interruption in electric power supply for 1-2 hours will not harm the stored foodstuffs. Try to less frequently open and close the refrigerator door during this period. DURING MOVE: Remove all foodstuffs and other objects from the refrigerator. Firmly secure the internal detachable parts (shelves, drawers, door baskets);

To avoid damage of the floor and adjustable feet of the refrigerator, turn them counter-clockwise before transportation; The refrigerator should be firmly secured in the truck to prevent its hits and falling inside the truck during transportation;

The refrigerator should be transported in vertical position in a covered vehicle. The original package should not be damaged during transportation; During loading and unloading, the refrigerator should be protected against hits.

BEFORE SWITCHING ON: If the refrigerator is transported in cold season, unpack the refrigerator in a warm room and do not switch on it for at least 12 hours.

ANTI-CONDENSATION TUBE: The anti-condensation tube is laid inside the enclosure around the front face of the refrigerator to exclude moisture condensation;

The refrigerator may greatly heat up in these places, especially immediately after switching on for the first time or at high ambient temperature.

Anti-condensation tube

REFRIGERATOR OPERATION FEATURES Cracking noise may be heard due to thermal deformations of the refrigerator components. Typical sounds from activation of the thermostatic controller and compressor are normal sounds occurring during operation of electric equipment in the appliance. The refrigerant circulating inside the refrigeration system may calmly gurgle, even if the compressor is idle. Do not worry, this is absolutely normal. The following sounds may be heard during operation of the refrigerator: - Clicks from actuation of the temperature sensor/switch; - Murmur of the refrigerant circulating in tubes of the refrigeration system; - Slight cracking noise from thermal deformations of materials. These sounds are not associated with any defect and they have a functional aspect.

Do not move or incline the refrigerator during its operation. Noise may occur in the compressor. This feature does not affect operability of the compressor.

If you keep the fridge-freezer in a hot, and humid place, frequently opening the door or putting a lot of vegetables in it may cause condensation to form. This has no effect on its performance. Remove the condensation with a dry, dust-free cloth. If droplets form beneath the cover of the vegetable drawer,keep vegetables or fruits wrapped with plastic wrap.

NOTE

Dry ice is very cold! Do not allow it to touch bare skin. It is well below F and will cause immediate frostbite and damage to the skin and other tissue. Dty ice frozen carbon dioxide. Use only in a well ventilated area.As the ice releases carbon dioxode vapor,it could cause light-headedness, fainting,suffocation, or death.

TROUBLE SHOOTING

If LED lamp is damaged,it should be replaced by the service center in stead of on your own.

SMART DIAGNOSIS(Option)

3 Hold the mouthpiece of your phone in front of the speaker that is located on the right hinge of the refrigerator door, when instructed to do so by the call center.

4 Press and hold the Freezer Temperature button for three seconds while continuing to hold your phone to the speaker.

5 After you hear three beeps, release the Freezer Temperature button.

6 Keep the phone in place until the tone transmission has finished. This takes about 15 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.

Should you experience any problems with your refrigerator, it has the capability of transmitting data via your telephone to the LG service center. This gives you the capability of speaking 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 effective diagnosis.

If you experience problems with your refrigerator, call the phone No. of LG Customer Information Center. 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 the phone No. of LG Customer Information Center. Only use the Smart Diagnosis feature when instructed to do so by the LG call center agent.

1 Lock the display. (Option) To lock the display, press and hold the Lock button for three seconds. (If the display has been locked for over five minutes, you must deactivate the lock and then reactivate it.)

2 Open the refrigerator door.

SMART DIAGNOSIS

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.

NOTE Call quality differences by region may affect 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 not work properly.
