6 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Risk of Fire and Flammable Materials
This symbol alerts you to flammable materials that can ignite and cause a fire if you do not
take care.
This appliance contains a small amount of isobutane refrigerant (R600a), which is combustible.
When transporting and installing the appliance, care should be taken to ensure that no parts
of the refrigerating circuit are damaged. Refrigerant squirting out of the pipes could ignite or
cause an eye injury. If a leak is detected, avoid any naked flames or potential sources of
ignition and air out the room in which the appliance is standing for several minutes.
In order to avoid the creation of a flammable gas air mixture if a leak in the refrigerating
circuit occurs, the size of the room in which the appliance may be sited depends on the
amount of refrigerant used. The room must be 10.8 square feet (1 square meter) in size for
every 8g of R600a refrigerant inside the appliance. The amount of refrigerant in your
particular appliance is shown on the identification plate inside the appliance. Never start up an
appliance showing any signs of damage. If in doubt, consult your dealer.
CAUTION
CAUTION
• To reduce the risk of minor or moderate injury to persons, malfunction, or damage to the product or
property when using this product, follow basic precautions, including the following:
Installation
• Do not install the refrigerator where there may be a danger of the unit falling.
• The refrigerator must be properly installed in accordance with the Installation Instructions.
• This appliance does not require changes in installation or use based on altitude.
Operation
• Do not use aerosols near the refrigerator.
• This appliance is intended to be used only in domestic and similar applications.
• Do not strike or apply excessive force to any glass surface. Do not touch glass surfaces if they are
cracked or broken. You may be injured.
• Do not overfill or pack items too tightly into door bins. Doing so may cause damage to the bin or
personal injury if items are removed with excessive force.
Maintenance
• Do not use strong detergents like wax or thinners for cleaning. Clean with a soft cloth.
• Remove foreign objects (such as dust and water) off the prongs of the power plug and contact areas. Do
not use a wet or damp cloth when cleaning the plug.
• Do not spray water directly on the inside or outside of the refrigerator.
• Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when they are cold. They may break if exposed to
sudden temperature changes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the best temperature settings for my refrigerator and freezer?
A: The default setting for the refrigerator is 37° Fahrenheit (3° Celsius). The default setting for the
freezer is 0° Fahrenheit (-18° Celsius). Adjust these settings as necessary to keep food at desired
temperatures. Milk should be cold when stored on the inner shelf of the refrigerator. Ice cream
should be firm and ice cubes should not melt in the freezer. To switch the display from Fahrenheit to
Celsius, press and hold the Freezer and Refrigerator buttons until you hear a beep and the settings
in the display change.
Q: How do I set the refrigerator and freezer temperatures?
A: Continually press the Refrigerator or Freezer button on the control panel until the desired
temperature appears. The numbers will cycle from highest to lowest and then return to the highest
again with continuous pressing.
Q: Why do I hear a buzzing noise from my refrigerator periodically?
A: This may happen if you do not have a water source attached to your refrigerator and the icemaker is
turned on. If you do not have a water source attached to the back of the refrigerator you should turn
the icemaker off.
Q: Why does the icemaker tray look crooked?
A: This is a normal part of the icemaker cycle. The icemaker tray may appear level or with a slight tilt.
The change in position is to assist in the freezing process.
Q: My refrigerator is powered on and the controls are working, but it’s not cooling and the display
shows “OFF” (see below). What is wrong?
A: The refrigerator is in Display Mode. The Display Mode disables all cooling in the refrigerator and
freezer sections to conserve energy while on display in a retail store. When activated, OFF is displayed
on the control panel and the display remains on for 20 seconds. With either refrigerator door opened,
press the Ice Plus button 3 times consecutively while pressing the Refrigerator button. The control
panel beeps and the temperature settings display to confirm that Display Mode is deactivated. Use
the same procedure to activate Display Mode.
Q: My refrigerator is on and is cooling, but none of the lights are on and the buttons don't work.
The display shows "Sb".
A: The Sabbath mode is activated. (Only included on some models.) To turn it off, see the Sabbath Mode
section.

conflict between the AAA Rules and the rules set forth in this section, the rules set forth in this section will
govern. This arbitration provision is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. Judgment may be entered on
the arbitrator’s award in any court of competent jurisdiction. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide,
except that issues relating to the scope and enforceability of the arbitration provision and to the
arbitrability of the dispute are for the court to decide. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this
provision.
Governing Law. The law of the state of your residence shall govern this Limited Warranty and any
disputes between us except to the extent that such law is preempted by or inconsistent with applicable
federal law.
Fees/Costs. You do not need to pay any fee to begin an arbitration. Upon receipt of your written demand
for arbitration, LG will promptly pay all arbitration filing fees to the AAA unless you seek more than $25,000
in damages, in which case the payment of these fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. Except as
otherwise provided for herein, LG will pay all AAA filing, administration and arbitrator fees for any
arbitration initiated in accordance with the AAA Rules and this arbitration provision. If you prevail in the
arbitration, LG will pay your attorneys’ fees and expenses as long as they are reasonable, by considering
factors including, but not limited to, the purchase amount and claim amount. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if applicable law allows for an award of reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, an arbitrator
can award them to the same extent that a court would. If the arbitrator finds either the substance of your
claim or the relief sought in the demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by
the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all arbitration fees will
be governed by the AAA Rules. In such a situation, you agree to reimburse LG for all monies previously
disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Except as otherwise
provided for, LG waives any rights it may have to seek attorneys’ fees and expenses from you if LG prevails
in the arbitration.
Hearings and Location. If your claim is for $25,000 or less, you may choose to have the arbitration
conducted solely on the basis of (1) documents submitted to the arbitrator, (2) through a telephonic
hearing, or (3) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $25,000, the
right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Any in-person arbitration hearings will be held at a
location within the federal judicial district in which you reside unless we both agree to another location or
we agree to a telephonic arbitration.
Opt Out. You may opt out of this dispute resolution procedure. If you opt out, neither you nor LG can
require the other to participate in an arbitration proceeding. To opt out, you must send notice to LG no
later than 30 calendar days from the date of the first consumer purchaser’s purchase of the product by
either: (i) sending an e-mail to [email protected], with the subject line: “Arbitration Opt Out” or (ii) calling 1-

LIMITED WARRANTY 65
PROCEDURE FOR RESOLVING DISPUTES:

EXCEPT WHERE PROHIBITED AT LAW, ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND LG ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING
IN ANY WAY TO THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR THE PRODUCT SHALL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY THROUGH
BINDING ARBITRATION, AND NOT IN A COURT OF GENERAL JURISDICTION. EXCEPT WHERE PROHIBITED
ENGLISH
AT LAW, YOU AND LG BOTH IRREVOCABLY AGREE TO WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO BRING
OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
Definitions. For the purposes of this section, references to “LG” mean LG Electronics Canada, Inc., its
parents, subsidiaries and affiliates, and each of their officers, directors, employees, agents, beneficiaries,
predecessors in interest, successors, assigns and suppliers; references to “dispute” or “claim” shall include
any dispute, claim or controversy of any kind whatsoever (whether based in contract, tort, statute,
regulation, ordinance, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal or equitable theory) arising out of or
relating in any way to the sale, condition or performance of the product or this Limited Warranty.
Notice of Dispute. In the event you intend to commence an arbitration proceeding, you must first notify
LG in writing at least 30 days in advance of initiating the arbitration by sending a letter to LGECI Legal
Team at 20 Norelco Drive, North York, Ontario, Canada M9L 2X6 (the “Notice of Dispute”). You and LG
agree to engage in good faith discussions in an attempt to amicably resolve your claim. The notice must
provide your name, address, and telephone number; identify the product that is the subject of the claim;
and describe the nature of the claim and the relief being sought. If you and LG are unable to resolve the
dispute within 30 days of LG’s receipt of the Notice of Dispute, the dispute shall be resolved by binding
arbitration in accordance with the procedure set out herein. You and LG both agree that, during the
arbitration proceeding, the terms (including any amount) of any settlement offer made by either you or LG
will not be disclosed to the arbitrator until the arbitrator determines the dispute.
Agreement to Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver. Upon failure to resolve the dispute during
the 30 day period after LG’s receipt of the Notice of Dispute, you and LG agree to resolve any claims
between you and LG only by binding arbitration on an individual basis, unless you opt out as provided
below, or you reside in a jurisdiction that prevents full application of this clause in the circumstances of the
claims at issue (in which case if you are a consumer, this clause will only apply if you expressly agree to the
arbitration). To the extent permitted by applicable law, any dispute between you and LG shall not be
combined or consolidated with a dispute involving any other person’s or entity’s product or claim. More
specifically, without limitation of the foregoing, except to the extent such a prohibition is not permitted at
law, any dispute between you and LG shall not under any circumstances proceed as part of a class or
representative action. Instead of arbitration, either party may bring an individual action in small claims
court, but that small claims court action may not be brought on a class or representative basis except to
the extent this prohibition is not permitted at law in your province or territory of jurisdiction as it relates to
the claims at issue between you and LG.
Arbitration Rules and Procedures. To begin arbitration of a claim, either you or LG must make a written
demand for arbitration. The arbitration will be private and confidential, and conducted on a simplified and
expedited basis before a single arbitrator chosen by the parties under the provincial or territorial
commercial arbitration law and rules of the province or territory of your residence. You must also send a
copy of your written demand to LG at LG Electronics, Canada, Inc., Attn: Legal Department- Arbitration, 20
Norelco Drive, North York, Ontario M9L 2X6. This arbitration provision is governed by your applicable
provincial or territorial commercial arbitration legislation. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s
award in any court of competent jurisdiction. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except that, issues
relating to the scope and enforceability of the arbitration provision and to the arbitrability of the dispute
are for the court to decide. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this provision.
Governing Law. The law of the province or territory of your purchase shall govern this Limited Warranty
and any disputes between you and LG except to the extent that such law is preempted by or inconsistent
with applicable federal or provincial/territorial law. Should arbitration not be permitted for any claim,
action, dispute or controversy between you and LG, you and LG attorn to the exclusive jurisdiction of the
courts of the province or territory of your purchase for the resolution of the claim, action, dispute or
controversy between you and LG.
Fees/Costs. You do not need to pay any fee to begin an arbitration. Upon receipt of your written demand
for arbitration, LG will promptly pay all arbitration filing fees unless you seek more than $25,000 in
damages, in which case the payment of these fees will be governed by the applicable arbitration rules.
Except as otherwise provided for herein, LG will pay all filing, administration and arbitrator fees for any
arbitration initiated in accordance with the applicable arbitration rules and this arbitration provision. If you
prevail in the arbitration, LG will pay your attorneys’ fees and expenses as long as they are reasonable, by
66 LIMITED WARRANTY
considering factors including, but not limited to, the purchase amount and claim amount. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if applicable law allows for an award of reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, an
arbitrator can award them to the same extent that a court would. If the arbitrator finds either the
substance of your claim or the relief sought in the demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose
(as measured by the applicable laws), then the payment of all arbitration fees will be governed by the
applicable arbitration rules. In such a situation, you agree to reimburse LG for all monies previously
disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the applicable arbitration rules. Except as
otherwise provided for, LG waives any rights it may have to seek attorneys’ fees and expenses from you if
LG prevails in the arbitration.
Hearings and Location. If your claim is for $25,000 or less, you may choose to have the arbitration
conducted solely (1) on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, (2) through a telephonic
hearing, or (3) by an in-person hearing as established by the applicable arbitration rules. If your claim
exceeds $25,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the applicable arbitration rules. Any in-
person arbitration hearings will be held at the nearest, most mutually-convenient arbitration location
available within the province or territory in which you reside unless you and LG both agree to another
location or agree to a telephonic arbitration.
Severability and Waiver. If any portion of this Limited Warranty (including these arbitration procedures)
is unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect to the maximum extent
permitted by applicable law. Should LG fail to enforce strict performance of any provision of this Limited
Warranty (including these arbitration procedures), it does not mean that LG intends to waive or has waived
any provision or part of this Limited Warranty.
Opt Out. You may opt out of this dispute resolution procedure. If you opt out, neither you nor LG can
require the other to participate in an arbitration proceeding. To opt out, you must send notice to LG no
later than 30 calendar days from the date of the first consumer purchaser’s purchase of the product by
either (i) sending an e-mail to [email protected], with the subject line: “Arbitration Opt Out;” or (ii) calling 1-
800-980-2973. You must include in the opt out e-mail or provide by telephone: (a) your name and address;
(b) the date on which the product was purchased; (c) the product model name or model number; and (d)
the serial number (the serial number can be found (i) on the product; or (ii) online by accessing https://
www.lg.com/ca_en/support/repair-service/schedule-repair and clicking on “Find My Model & Serial
Number”).
In the event that you “Opt Out”, the law of the province or territory of your residence shall govern this
Limited Warranty and any disputes between you and LG except to the extent that such law is preempted
by or inconsistent with applicable federal or provincial/territorial law. Should arbitration not be permitted
for any claim, action, dispute or controversy between you and LG, you and LG agree to attorn to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the province or territory of your residence for the resolution of the
claim, action, dispute or controversy between you and LG.
You may only opt out of the dispute resolution procedure in the manner described above (that is, by e-mail
or telephone); no other form of notice will be effective to opt out of this dispute resolution procedure.
Opting out of this dispute resolution procedure will not affect the coverage of the Limited Warranty in any
way, and you will continue to enjoy the full benefits of the Limited Warranty. If you keep this product and
do not opt out, then you accept all terms and conditions of the arbitration provision described above.
Conflict of Terms. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the terms of this Limited Warranty
and the End User License Agreement (“EULA”) in regards to dispute resolution, the terms of this Limited
Warranty shall control and govern the rights and obligations of the parties and shall take precedence over
the EULA.
