LG LSC27935 Refrigerator
Frequently Asked Questions (10)
How often does the water filter need to be replaced, and how do I reset the filter indicator?
The water filter should be replaced once every six months. When the filter month indicator reaches '0', it is time to replace the filter. After replacing the cartridge, press and hold the LIGHT/FILTER button for more than 3 seconds until you hear a beep to reset the filter month indicator back to six. (Page 14, 19)
How long does it take for a newly installed refrigerator to start making ice?
A newly-installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice. The ice maker produces 5 cubes per cycle, totaling between 60 and 80 cubes in a 24-hour period depending on freezer temperature and door usage. You should also discard the first few batches of ice to allow the water line to clear. (Page 15)
What should I do if the refrigerator is not dispensing ice?
First, ensure all refrigerator doors are fully closed, as ice will not dispense if any door is left open. Check that the control panel is not locked — press and hold the Lock button for 3 seconds to unlock it. Also verify that the ice bin is installed correctly and that the ice maker power switch is in the ON (I) position. For a new installation, wait 24 hours for ice production to begin and 72 hours for full ice production. (Page 25-26)
What are the electrical requirements for installing the LG LSC27935 refrigerator?
The refrigerator must be plugged into its own properly grounded outlet using a 3-prong grounding plug. The power supply should be 115 V, 60 Hz A.C. and fused at 15 or 20 amps. The use of extension cables is not recommended, and you should never cut or remove the third grounding prong from the plug. (Page 5)
What water pressure is required for the ice maker and water dispenser to work properly?
Water pressure must be between 20 and 120 PSI on models without a water filter, and between 40 and 120 PSI on models with a water filter. If using a reverse osmosis system, the water pressure needs to be a minimum of 40 to 60 PSI. Water pressure below these levels may result in reduced ice production or poor water dispensing.

How do I set the refrigerator temperature, and how long should I wait before adjusting it?
Initially set the refrigerator control to 37°F (3°C) and allow 24 hours to stabilize before making any further adjustments. Press the REFRIGERATOR button on the control panel to adjust the temperature setting. Always wait at least 24 hours between adjustments to allow the temperature to stabilize. (Page 13-14)
What should I do during a power outage to protect food in the freezer?
If the power will be out for 24 hours or less, keep all refrigerator doors closed to help foods stay cold and frozen. If the outage will last more than 24 hours, either move frozen food to a frozen food locker or place 2 lbs. (1 kg) of dry ice per cubic foot of freezer space, which will keep food frozen for two to four days. When handling dry ice, wear gloves to protect against frostbite and ensure adequate ventilation. (Page 21)
How do I activate the Ice Plus function and what does it do?
Press the ICE PLUS button once to activate the increased ice-making function; the ICE PLUS icon on the display panel will illuminate when activated. The Ice Plus function runs the freezer compartment at its coldest settings for a 24-hour period to increase ice production. Press the button again to cancel the Ice Plus function. (Page 13)
What is the correct temperature range for installing the refrigerator, and how much clearance is needed?
The refrigerator should be installed in an area where the ambient temperature is between 41°F (5°C) and 110°F (43°C), as temperatures outside this range may adversely affect cooling ability. For proper air circulation and best cooling performance, maintain a minimum distance of 2 inches (5.08 cm) from adjacent items and surfaces. The appliance should be installed on a solidly constructed floor; carpeting and soft tile surfaces are not recommended. (Page 6)
How do I lock the dispenser and control panel, and how do I use the door alarm?
Press and hold the ALARM/LOCK button for 3 seconds to lock the dispenser and all control panel functions; press and hold again for 3 seconds to unlock. The door alarm will sound three times at 30-second intervals when a compartment door has been left open for more than 60 seconds, and will stop when the door is closed. Press the ALARM/LOCK button once to activate or deactivate the door alarm function. (Page 14)
