The LG Design Philosophy for Microwaves

Design plays a critical role in harmonizing technology and human needs. In an effort to predict emerging needs and deliver innovative products to the public, LG has developed a comprehensive design philosophy that boils down to four basic elements: concept, style, interface, and finish.

At LG, we strive to make your home life easier and more enjoyable by creating digital appliances that fit your lifestyle and home décor.

Design That Integrates Sensitive Ergonomics and Digital Technology

In this era of digital technology, LG has been delving deeply into design and research. Our design team is focused on creating digital appliances that make life easier and more fun.

Digital technology is becoming an increasingly important tool in our modern lives. A growing number of products come equipped with “intelligent” microchips and networking options. This technology, though still in its early stages, has great potential—requiring our designers to put on their “inventing caps” to predict emerging trends, design new lifestyle concepts, and test out their designs on a demanding public.

Designing for the future

At the LG Life Soft Research Lab, established almost 20 years ago, researchers, designers, and trend scouts work to predict the future by examining and identifying consumer desires; observing the public’s interest in products; and developing design concepts and solutions based on this research.

This is how LG stays one step ahead of the game—we’re always working on products for the future. Our research is focused not only on new products and technological trends, but also on understanding customer and market behavior.

LG Kitchen Designs

A great deal of your daily life takes place in the kitchen. So we put careful research and deliberation into our kitchen designs to meet your needs. The four basic elements of our design philosophy—concept, style, interface, and finish—are carefully integrated in every LG digital kitchen appliance.

Microwave Designs

LG microwave ovens have revolutionized microwave cooking with ingenious features like SolarCUBETM, which combines halogen, sheath, convection, and microwave cooking to deliver foods that are moist and tender on the inside, and crisp on the outside. And, with stainless steel exteriors and hidden venting, our microwave ovens are sure to complement the aesthetic of your kitchen.

Does My Microwave Oven Require a Special Power Outlet?

LG microwave ovens are designed to operate on a standard 230V-240V household outlet. (They are also intended to be the only appliance on the circuit.) Our units are not designed for a circuit other than a 230V-240V circuit.

Grounding Instructions

LG microwave ovens must be grounded! If an electrical short circuit occurs, grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing an escape-wire for the electrical current. Our microwaves are equipped with a cord that includes a grounded wire and grounded plug. Be sure to insert the plug into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded. If you do not understand these instructions, or if you’re wondering whether your appliance is properly grounded, ask a qualified electrician; using a grounding plug improperly can put you at risk for electric shock.
