[LG refrigerator installation] How far from the wall should I install the refrigerator?

Troubleshooting

Try this

Ensures a reasonable space surrounds the refrigerator.

If the space between the refrigerator and surrounding walls is too narrow, the refrigerator will not be ventilated properly so that condensation may form on its outer surface which could result in lower efficiency and higher electrical bills.
If the heat generated by the cold air motor (compressor) in the mechanic room at the back is not able to be dispersed rapidly, the cooling capacity/cooling power of the refrigerator may be significantly degraded.
Make sure that the product is at least 10cm away from the wall.
Keep a gap of at least 2.5cm between the top of the refrigerator door and the cabinet in which the refrigerator is installed.


Secure a space of 10 cm at the back of the refrigerator and 10 cm on both sides.
Secure a space of 2.5 cm above the top of the refrigerator and 10 cm between the side and back.
