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

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 put food near the temperature sensor of the fridge compartment. Keep a distance of at least 3 cm from the sensor.
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.
For the most efficient use of energy, make sure that door bins, drawers and shelves are assembled properly.
Do not set the temperature of the appliance lower than needed.

Storing Foods Effectively

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
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.Cold air can not circulate properly if the appliance is overfilled.
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.
For more space, you can remove bottle rack, egg tray, ice tray and fresh converter drawer.
Store raw meat and fish in suitable containers in the refrigerator, so that it is not in contact with or drip onto other food.

What number is the coldest setting on a freezer?

Some Bottom Freezer refrigerators have digital temperature controls located inside the fresh food compartment. These internal controls show temperature ranges with the numerical ranking of 1-9 with 9 being the coldest.

Why is my LG fridge not getting cold enough?

Check if the power cord is fully plugged in. Try unplugging the unit or trip the circuit breaker for 30 seconds to RESET THE REFRIGERATOR. You should hear the compressor kick back on and the unit will stabilize and start cooling within 24 hours.

Why side walls of the LG fridge are very hot?

Refrigerators generate heat during the process of making cold air. In order to cool this heat down, heat dissipation pipes are installed on both outer walls of the refrigerator, so when the product is operated, heat is generated on the side walls of the refrigerator.
