IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

This manual contains several important safety notices. Always read and obey all of the following safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol is a warning to potential dangers that could cause death, injury

or damage to you, others or the product. All safety messages will follow after this warning symbol and the

word “DANGER”, “CAUTION” or “WARNING”. These words mean:

You may be killed or suffer fatal damage if you do not follow instructions.

You may be killed or seriously injured if you do not follow instructions.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor injury

or damage to the product.

All safety messages inform you of potential danger, advise you on how to reduce the risk of injury and tell you what

can occur if the instructions are not followed.

To reduce the risk of ﬁre, electrical shock or personal

injury, the following precaution measures should be

followed:

•NEVER disconnect the refrigerator by pulling the

power cord, always grip the plug ﬁrmly and disconnect

it directly from the outlet.

•Immediately repair or replace all faulty or damaged

service cables. Do not use cords that have cracks or

abrasion damage on the length of the cord or on the

plug.

•When moving your refrigerator, take care not to roll

over the electrical cord.

•DO NOT store or use gasoline or other combustible

liquids or vapors in proximity with this or any other

electrical appliance.

•DO NOT permit children to climb, stand or swing from

the doors or shelves of the refrigerator. This can cause

serious injury to them and damage to the product.

•Keep your ﬁngers away from areas in which they

can become caught, such as the doors, hinges and

cabinets. Be careful closing the doors when children

are near.

•Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning or repairing.

NOTE: We strongly recommend that any repair

services be performed by a qualiﬁed professional.

•Before replacing a burned-out light bulb, unplug the

refrigerator or shut down the circuit breaker to avoid

contact with a live wire (the bulb could break while

being replaced). NOTE: Setting the control to the OFF

position does not disconnect the power from the light

bulb circuit.

•Do not keep bottles in the freezer compartment, they

could explode after freezing and cause damage.

•For your safety, this product should be properly

grounded. Have a qualiﬁed professional check the

electrical circuit and outlet to ensure a proper ground

connection.

•Read all instructions before utilizing the product. Use

this product only as explicitly expressed in this guide.

•Once the refrigerator is operating, avoid touching cold

surfaces of the freezer with damp or wet hands; the

skin could become adhered to these surfaces.

•In refrigerators with an automatic ice dispenser, avoid

contact with moving parts of the ejector mechanism

or with the heating mechanism that discharges the

cubes. DO NOT place your ﬁngers or hands in the

ice dispenser mechanism while the refrigerator is

connected.

•DO NOT refreeze foods which have already thawed.

The Department of Agriculture of the United States, in

your Bulletin of Home and Gardens No. 69 establishes

that:

“...You can refreeze food that has thawed if they contain

ice crystals or are cold and below 40 °F (4 °C)”.

“...Ground beef, perishable food or seafood that is

discolored or has an unpleasant odor should not be

frozen or consumed. Consumption of melted ice cream

should also be avoided. If the odor or color of food is

questionable, discard it. The food may be dangerous to

consume”.

“Partial thawing or refreezing reduces the quality of the

food, especially fruit, vegetables and prepared meals.

The quality of red meat is less affected than other foods.

Use refrozen products as soon as possible in order to

maintain their quality”.

SAFETY MESSAGES

WARNING

DANGER

WARNING

CAUTION

This appliance is not intended for use by children, persons with physical or mental disabilities, persons with reduced

sensory or mental capacity, or persons with lack of experience or know-how, unless they have supervision or instruction

in relation to the use of the appliance by the person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to

assure that they do not play with the appliance.

Children becoming trapped or suffocated is not

a problem of the past. Discarded and abandoned

refrigerators are a hazard, even if they remain there

“for just a few days”. If you would like to dispose of your

old refrigerator, please follow the instructions below to

prevent any accidents.

BEFORE DISPOSING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

OR FREEZER WHEN NO LONGER IN USE:

•Remove the doors.

•Leave the shelves in place so that children

cannot easily become stuck in them.

Your old refrigerator may have a cooling system that

uses CFC’s (chloroﬂuorocarbons). CFC affects the

stratospheric layer of the ozone.

If you decide to throw out your old refrigerator, ensure

that CFC contaminants are properly disposed of by a

qualiﬁed professional. If you intentionally remove the

CFC refrigerant, you could be subject to ﬁnes or prison

in accordance with environmental legislation in effect.

IMPORTANT: Attentively read the following.

TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY

WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

FOR YOUR PERSONAL SAFETY, this appliance must

be properly grounded. Have a qualiﬁed electrician

check your wall outlet to ensure that the plug is

grounded properly.

3 prong

grounding type

wall receptacle

3 prong

grounding Ensure proper

plug ground exists

before use

RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD

Your refrigerator must always be plugged to its own

outlet which is adequately grounded. The energy current

should only be 115 V, 60 Hz, A.C. and fused at 15 or 20

A. This provides the best performance and prevents an

overload which could cause a ﬁre from the overheating

of the cables. It is recommended that a separate circuit

be used for this appliance, as well as a receptacle that

cannot be disconnected with a switch.

Do not use an extension cable. It is your responsibility

and obligation to replace two-prong outlets with that of

an adequately grounded three- prong outlet.

Do not, under any circumstance, cut or extract the third

prong from the plug.

NOTE: Before installation, cleaning or replacing light

bulbs, you must disconnect the appliance from the

power source. When ﬁnished, plug the appliance back in

and adjust the thermostat to the desired position.

USE OF EXTENSION CABLES

We do not recommend the use of extension cables.

However, if you still choose to utilize an extension cable,

it is absolutely necessary that it is listed in the UL (in

the United States) or CSA (in Canada), that it supports

three-pronged plugs and that the electrical current

support a minimum of 15 A and 120 V.

The use of an extension cable will increase the amount

of space needed behind the refrigerator.

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.

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.

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. For more information, see

the section on “Important Safety Instructions”.

The shelves come already installed in their factory

position. Remove the shelves and replace them

according to your spacing needs.

Moving Your Refrigerator:

Your refrigerator is extremely heavy. Make sure you

protect the ﬂoor when moving your refrigerator for

cleaning or servicing. Always pull your refrigerator

straight out when moving it. Do not shift from side

to side or “walk” the refrigerator when attempting to

move it as this can cause damage to the ﬂoor.

WARNING

EXPLOSION HAZARD

Keep all ﬂammable materials and vapors (such as

gasoline) away from the refrigerator. Not following

these instructions may cause death, explosion or ﬁre.

INSTALLATION

1. Avoid placing the unit near heat sources, direct

sunlight, or humidity.

2. To avoid vibration, the unit should be leveled. If needed,

adjust the leveling screws to compensate for an

unleveled ﬂoor. The front should be slightly taller than

the rear to ensure that the doors close properly. The

leveling screws can easily be turned by slightly tilting

the front of the refrigerator, turning the leveling screws

clockwise ( ) to raise it and counter-clockwise

( ) to lower it.

3. Install the refrigerator in an area between 55 °F

(13 °C) and 110 °F (43 °C). If the surrounding temperature

is lower or higher than previously mentioned, it can

adversely affect the unit.

CAUTION: Avoid placing the unit near heat

sources, direct sunlight or humidity.

ONCE INSTALLED

1. Carefully clean your refrigerator and remove and dust

accumulated during shipping.

2. Install accessories such as the ice bin, door racks,

shelves, etc., in their proper places. These are already

packed to prevent any possible damage during

shipping.

3. Leave your refrigerator on for 2 to 3 hours before

storing food inside. Verify that there is a ﬂow of cold air

in the freezer compartment to ensure proper cooling.

Your refrigerator is now ready for use.

WARNING:

•Take care when working with the hinges, base cover

and stops, etc. You may injure yourself.

•DO not place your hands or any tools in the air vents,

the base cover or in the bottom of the refrigerator. This

may cause injury or electrical shock.

CLOSING AND ALIGNING THE DOORS

Closing the Doors

Your refrigerator has two front leveling screws, one on

the right and one on the left. If your refrigerator seems

unstable or if you would like the doors to close more

easily, simply adjust the inclination of the refrigerator by

following the instructions below:

1. Plug the refrigerator into a 3 prong grounded outlet.

Move the refrigerator into its ﬁnal position.

2. Remove the base grille (Refer to the section on

“Installation of Base Grille”).

3. Use a ﬂat head screwdriver to adjust the leveling screws,

turning clockwise to raise the side of the refrigerator

and counter-clockwise to lower it. It may take several

turns to adjust it to the inclination you would like.

NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the

refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling screws.

This will make it easier to adjust the screws.

4. Open both doors again and check to make sure that

they close easily. If not, slightly tilt the refrigerator

further back by turning both leveling screws clockwise.

It may take several more turns. Make sure that you turn

both leveling screws the same amount.

5. Ensure that the refrigerator is even by using a level.

6. Replace the base grille.

Aligning the Doors

If the spacing between the doors is uneven, follow the

instructions below to align them:

1. Pry off the top hinge cover.

2. Loosen the screws from the top hinge using a 10 mm

socket or wrench.

3. Have someone help you hold the door in place or

place a spacer between the doors while tightening the

top hinge screws.

4. Replace the top hinge cover.
