LG India's Frost Free refrigerator range includes models equipped with technologies like Smart Inverter Compressor, DoorCooling+™, Hygiene Fresh+™ and other features, depending on the model.

How to install and set up your LG smart refrigerator in India

Setting up your LG smart refrigerator correctly can help ensure reliable performance and convenient everyday use. Before installation, select a suitable location with adequate space around the refrigerator and access to a proper power connection.

  1. Step 1: Choose the right location

    Place the refrigerator on a stable, level surface and ensure sufficient clearance around the appliance for proper ventilation.

  2. Step 2: Keep it away from heat sources

    Avoid placing the refrigerator in direct sunlight or close to appliances that generate significant heat. This helps the refrigerator maintain its cooling performance efficiently.

  3. Step 3: Allow the refrigerator to settle

    After installation, follow the instructions about when to switch on the appliance and when to load food.

  4. Step 4: Connect compatible models to LG ThinQ™

    If your refrigerator supports Wi-Fi, connect it to the LG ThinQ™ app to access supported smart functions such as remote monitoring, selected controls and notifications.

Always refer to the product manual for model-specific installation and setup instructions.

What should you do during power interruptions in India?

Power interruptions can be inconvenient, especially when the refrigerator contains fresh produce, dairy products, cooked food, and frozen items. During a power cut, one of the simplest steps is to keep the refrigerator and freezer doors closed as much as possible. This helps to minimize the loss of cold air.

Once the power supply returns, allow the refrigerator to resume normal operation. If your model is connected to LG ThinQ™, supported notifications and monitoring features can provide additional convenience.

LG also offers Auto Smart Connect™ on selected refrigerator models, which allows the refrigerator to work with a home inverter during power cuts. However, availability varies by model, so check the product specifications before buying.
