Remove the cover lamp by pulling outside, then pushing it left/right by finger. Make sure the bulbs are cool to the touch. Remove the lamp by turning it counterclockwise.

Suggestions on Food StorageWhen storing the food, cover it with vinyl wrap or store in a container
with a lid. This prevents moisture from evaporating and helps food to
keep its taste and nutrients.
Dont keep hot milk or hot food in your refrigerator.  This will result
in an increased temperature and increase in power consumption.Never overload your refrigerator or cover the shelves  with paper or
plastic sheets as it will reduce its efficiency. Put new lamp and tighten it by turning it clockwise. Make sure the bulbs is properly tightened (not loose). Put the cover lamp back and push it gently with your thumb till a click sound appears.

Do not open the door frequently. Opening the door lets warm air enter the refrigerator,
and cause temperature to rise.Do not store food which goes bad easily at low temperatures. Such as bananas,
pineapples, etc.Close the door properly, make sure that there is no gap between the gasket and
the cabinet of your LG  refrigerator.Wipe excessive moisture on food or place it inside  containers or plastic bags.
This will help in retaining its  freshness for a longer period of time.Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment - they may break when frozen.
Loading for Freezing - It is recommended to load newly introduced foods
on the following position for freezing.
Avoid placing moist food on deep interior refrigerator shelves. It could freeze
upon direct contact with chilled air. To avoid this it is better to store food in the
covered container.
It is desirable to store moist food (especially vegetable and fruit) in the vegetable storage compartment. If it
is necessary to store on a shelf of the refrigerator, put it close to the door
away from the back wall of the refrigerator to avoid being frozen by the
cool circulating in the refrigerator.
 
						

							13When storing eggs in their storage tray, ensure that they are fresh, and
always store them in a upright position, which keeps them fresh longer.Feel free to call your LG Customer Information Centre (CIC) / Branch / LG Representative in case your
refrigerator has suffered a damage in transit. It is recommended to use Voltage Stabilizer (0.5KVA) if power fluctuations are frequent and out of
specified voltage range (135-290V), Stabilizer usage increases the refrigerator life.
Suggestions
CleaningCleaning of Interior Parts is recommended. Wash all compartments with a mild
baking soda solution, then rinse  and dry the compartment. Use a lukewarm
solution of mild  soap or detergent to clean the exterior  finish of your refrigerator.
Wipe with a clean, damp cloth and then dry.
During VacationsDuring average length vacations, you will probably find it best to leave the refrigerator
in operation. Place freezable items in freezer for longer life. When you plan to be away
for an extended period, remove all food, disconnect the power cord, clean the interior
thoroughly, and leave each door OPEN to prevent odour formation. To operate again,
let the refrigerator run for 6-8 hrs. for stabilization.
ShiftingWhile shifting the refrigerator, two people should carry it for its safety. Fasten the
door with tape or lock to prevent opening of the refrigerator.Aheiv
