· Two star compartments are not suitable for the freezing of fresh food.

Notes for Operation
· Do not use the ice water dispenser tank for beverages other than drinking water.
· Users should keep in mind that frost can form. If the door is not closed completely, if the humidity is high during the summer, or if the freezer door is opened frequently.
· 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.
· Do not open or close the appliance door excessively.
· The LED lamp is only intended for use in domestic appliances and is not suitable for household room illumination.
· 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.

Suggestion for Energy Saving
· For the most efficient use of energy, make sure that door bins, drawers and shelves are assembled properly.
· 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. For ice making in normal climates, the freezer temperatures should be set to -18 °C or colder.
· Do not put food near the temperature sensor of the fridge compartment. Keep a distance of at least 3 cm from the sensor.
· Please note that a temperature rise after defrosting has a permissible range in the appliance specifications. If you wish to minimise the impact this may have 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
· Food may freeze or spoil if stored at the wrong temperature. Set the refrigerator to the correct temperature for the food being stored.
· 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 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.
· Avoid refreezing any food which has been completely thawed. Freezing any food which has been completely thawed again will lower its taste and nutrition.
· Do not wrap and store vegetables with newspaper. Printing material of newspaper or other foreign substances may smear and contaminate food.
· Do not overfill the appliance. Fill less than 70 % of the space. Cold air can not circulate properly if the appliance is overfilled.
· 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.
· 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.
· Always keep the appliance clean.
· 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.

Max Freezing Capacity
· The Express Freeze function will allow the freezer to its maximum freezing capacity. This generally takes up to 3 hours, however, it will automatically turn off after a given time and can also be turned off manually at any given time.
· Express Freeze must be switched on for 2 hours before fresh products are placed in the freezer compartment.
· To get better air circulation, insert all inner parts like baskets, drawers, and shelves.

Symptoms
The automatic icemaker does not produce ice or produces a small amount of ice.
Ice is not dispensed.

Reason

Solution

Did you install the appliance recently?
Did you connect the water supply pipe to the appliance and open the supply valve? Is the water supply hose bent?
Have you dispensed a large amount of ice recently?
Did you set the ice maker switch or the automatic icemaker button on the control panel to ON?
Is the temperature of the freezer compartment set too high?
Have you been opening the appliance door frequently?
Is the appliance door completely closed?
Is there ice in the ice bin?
Is the ice clumped in the ice bin?

· The ice maker produces ice normally when approximately 48 hours have passed after the appliance is installed.
· Connect the water supply pipe to the appliance and open the supply valve completely.
· If the water supply hose is bent, the water flow could be compromised.
· It takes approximately 24 hours to produce more ice in the automatic icemaker. Please wait.
· Press I on the automatic icemaker switch or set ON for the automatic icemaker button on the control panel. (For more details on how to use, visit LG electronics website or use your smart device.)
· If the set temperature is too warm, ice will be produced slowly or not at all. Set the Freezer temperature to -18 °C for normal operation of the automatic icemaker.
· If you open the appliance door frequently, cold air will escape, lowering the speed of ice production. Do not open and close the appliance door frequently.
· If the appliance door is not completely closed, the temperature of the freezer compartment will increase, slowing down the ice production speed. Close the appliance door completely.
· Check whether there is ice in the ice bin.
· Separate the ice bin and shake it. Discard the remaining clumped ice after shaking the ice bin.

Symptoms Ice is not dispensed. Water does not come out.
Water tastes strange.

Reason
Unable to hear the sound of ice coming out?
Is the ice path blocked? (You can check the ice passage by separating the ice bin.)
The supply valve may be turned off? (For Plumbed models Only) The water dispenser tank may be empty? (Non plumbed models only) Is the water supply valve closed? (For Plumbed models Only)
Are you using unfiltered water?
Is the taste of water different when comparing it with the taste of water from the previous water purifier?
Has it been a long time since you installed and replaced the filter?
Have you flushed out the filter properly in the initial stage after installing it?
Has the purified water or cold water not been used for an extended period of time?

Solution
· In the control panel, select the modes for cubed ice and crushed ice alternately to dispense the ice.
· Ice may not be dispensed properly if the ice passage is blocked. Check the ice and clean the ice path regularly.
· Open the water supply valve.
· Fill the water dispenser tank.
· Open the water supply valve.
· Unfiltered water can contain a large amount of various heavy metals or foreign substances, so the filter may be clogged in the early stage regardless of the life of the filter.
· Has the purified water or cold water not been used for an extended period of time?
· If an expired filter is used, the purification performance may decline. It is recommended to replace the filter according to the filter replacement period.
· When you install or replace the filter for the first time, you need to remove air and activated carbon residue from inside the filter. Use the appliance after dispensing and discharging approximately 5 litres of purified water from the dispenser by pressing the water dispensing lever. (Activated carbon is harmless to humans.)
· The taste of old water may change due to bacterial growth. Use the product after dispensing and discharging approximately 5 litres (approximately three minutes) from the water dispenser.
