Power Interruptions; When Going On Vacation - LG LDC22720 Series Owner's Manual

REMEMBER: In a power failure, a full freezer stays cold
longer than a partially filled one. A freezer full of meat
stays cold longer than a freezer full of baked goods. If
you see that food contains ice crystals, it may be safely
refrozen, although the quality and flavor may be affected.
If the condition of the food is poor or if you feel it unsafe,
dispose of it.

• Unlock the cover of the light bulb using your thumbs
(1).

upwards (4).

POWER INTERRUPTIONS
1. In case of a black out, call your electric company and
ask how long it will last.
2. In case of a 24 hour or less black out, do not open the
refrigerator; this will keep the food fresh.
3. In case of a longer black out, do one of the following
options:
• Pull out all of the frozen food and keep them in an ice
chest.
• Put 2 Ibs (907 g) of frozen ice (make sure you use
gloves) for each square foot (28 L) inside the freezer.
This task will preserve the food fro 2 to 4 days.
• In case you do not possess neither ice chest or dry ice,
consume your food as soon as possible.

2.Unplug your refrigerator.
3. Empty the water from its tray.
4.Clean and dry it with a rag.
5. Pull out all of the removable parts, and wrap them with
adhesive tape.
6. Depending on the model of the refrigerator, lift the top
part of the refrigerator so it can roll with ease, or screw
the levelers so it will not scratch the floor. Consult to
the section "Closing and Aligning Doors':

refrigerator cabinet with an adhesive tape.
When your refrigerator arrives to your home, put
everything back into place and read the section

maker, remember you have to reconnect the water
supply.
