LG Electronics LSC27925ST When YOU GO on Vacation, When YOU Move, Normal Sounds YOU MAY Hear

CARE AND CLEANING

REMEMBER: In a power failure, a full freezer stays cold longer than a partially filled one. If you see that food contains ice crystals, it may be affected. If the condition of the food is poor, or if you feel it is unsafe, dispose of it.

WARNING

DO NOT refreeze frozen foods which have thawed completely. The United States Department of Agriculture in Home and Garden Bulletin No. 69 says:

...You may safely refreeze frozen foods that have thawed if they still contain ice crystals or if they are still cold- below 40 °F (4 °C). ...Thawed ground meats, poultry or fish that have any off-odor or off-color should not be frozen and should not be eaten. Thawed ice cream should be discarded.

If the odor or color of any food is poor or questionable, dispose of it. The food may be dangerous to eat. Even partial thawing and refreezing reduces the eating quality of foods, particularly fruits, vegetables and prepared foods.

The eating quality of red meats is affected less than that of many other foods. Use refrozen foods as soon as possible to save as much of their quality as you can.

WHEN YOU GO ON VACATION

If you choose to leave the refrigerator ON while you are away, follow these steps to prepare your refrigerator before you leave.

1.Use up any perishables and freeze other items.

2.Empty the ice bin.

3.Turn OFF the Ice maker. NOTE: If the ambient temperature will drop below freezing, have a quailed service technician drain the water supply system (on some models) to prevent serious property damage due to possible flooding from ruptured water lines or connections.

If you choose to turn the refrigerator OFF before you leave, follow these steps:

1.Remove all food from the refrigerator and empty ice bin.

2.Unplug refrigerator.

3.Clean refrigerator, wipe, and dry well.

4.Tape rubber or wood blocks to the tops of both doors to prop them open far enough for air to get in. This stops odor and mold from building up.

WHEN YOU MOVE

When you are moving your refrigerator to a new home, follow these steps to prepare it for the move.

1.Remove all food from the refrigerator and pack all frozen food in dry ice.

2.Unplug refrigerator.

3.Clean refrigerator, wipe, and dry well.

4.Empty water from the defrost pan.

5.Clean, wipe and dry thoroughly.

6.Take out all removable parts, wrap them well and tape together so they don’t shift and rattle during the move. Refer to sections in Using your Refrigerator for removal instructions.

7.Depending on the model, raise the front of the

refrigerator so it rolls more easily OR screw in the leveling legs all the way so they don’t scrape the floor. See the “Door Alignment” section.

8.Tape the doors shut and tape the power cord to the refrigerator cabinet.

When you get to your new home, put everything back and refer to the “Refrigerator Installation” section for setup instructions.

WHEN YOU SHOULD SET THE ICE MAKER POWER SWITCH TO OFF (O)

•When the water supply will be shut off for several hours.

•When the ice storage bin is removed for more than a minute or two.

•When the refrigerator will not be used for several days.

NORMAL SOUNDS YOU MAY HEAR

•The ice maker water valve will buzz as the ice maker fills with water. If the power switch is in the ON position, it will buzz even if it has not yet been hooked up to water. To stop the buzzing, move the power switch to OFF position.

NOTE: Keep the power switch in the ON position before the water line is connected can damage the ice maker.

•You will hear the sound of cubes dropping into the bin and water running in the pipes as the ice maker refills.
