LG Electronics LFC20740 Using Your Refrigerator, Ensuring Proper AIR Circulation, Multi-Flow

Page 17

USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

ENSURING PROPER AIR CIRCULATION

In order to ensure proper temperatures, air must flow between the refrigerator and freezer sections. As shown in the illustration below, air enters at top of freezer and circulates down. From bottom of freezer, air is forced up to top of refrigerator. Air enters refrigerator through top vent, then circulates and exists at bottom, where it returns to freezer.

MULTI-FLOW

Multi-Flow means powerful and effective cooling operation. This is especially noticeable when new food is placed in the refrigerator compartment.

If water or foreign substances enter the cool air vent while cleaning, efficiency will be lowered. In addition, if gasket is damaged, efficiency may be lowered because of escaping cool air.

DOOR ALARM

With this feature you´ll listen a alarm when the freezer or refrigerator door is not closed within 1 minute after it is opened. These tones repeat every 30 seconds.

The alarm is cancelled when the freezer or the refrigerator is closed correctly.

SETTING THE CONTROLS

(Models without water dispenser)

Your refrigerator has two controls that let you regulate the temperature in the freezer and refrigerator compartments.

Initially set the REFRIGERATOR CONTROL and the FREEZER CONTROL at position number “4”.

Leave it at this setting for 24 hours (one day) to stabilize. Then adjust the compartment temperature as desired.

Do not block any of cool air vents with food packages. If the vents are blocked, airflow will be interrupted and temperature and moisture problems may occur.

IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To prevent odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly. (See the Food Storage Guide section for details.)

LFC20740, LFC22740 specifications

LG Electronics has long been a leader in innovative home appliances, and its refrigerator offerings, particularly the LFC22740 and LFC20740 models, showcase their commitment to quality, functionality, and modern technology. These two refrigerator models are designed to meet the needs of contemporary households while adhering to the highest standards of energy efficiency and performance.

The LG LFC22740 is a 22 cubic feet, French door refrigerator that provides ample storage space without overwhelming a kitchen. One of its standout features is the Smart Cooling System, which employs advanced cooling technology to maintain optimal humidity and temperature levels. This system ensures that food stays fresh longer, thereby minimizing spoilage. The Linear Compressor, which is central to the Smart Cooling System, operates with fewer moving parts, leading to improved energy efficiency and reduced noise levels.

On the other hand, the LG LFC20740 offers similar quality but in a slightly smaller 20 cubic feet capacity. This model also utilizes the Smart Cooling System, ensuring that your groceries are kept at the perfect temperature, whether it’s a hot summer day or a chilly winter night. Both models feature a multi-air flow system that allows cold air to circulate throughout the refrigerator, maintaining consistent temperatures in every corner of the unit.

In terms of storage options, both LFC22740 and LFC20740 come equipped with adjustable shelving. This flexibility allows users to customize their storage space according to their needs, whether it’s for large party platters or day-to-day items. Additionally, the refrigerator compartments include humidity-controlled crispers, which are ideal for storing fruits and vegetables, ensuring they stay fresh and crisp longer.

For added convenience, both models feature an external ice and water dispenser. This not only provides instant access to chilled water and ice but also adds a touch of sophistication to the overall design. The sleek finish of these models, available in stainless steel, makes them an attractive addition to any kitchen décor.

In summary, the LG LFC22740 and LFC20740 are not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional and efficient. With their advanced cooling technologies, customizable storage options, and user-friendly features, these refrigerators are an excellent investment for those looking to upgrade their kitchen appliances.
