If you have an LG fridge, you may want to adjust the temperature to suit your preferences and needs. The temperature affects how cold your food and drinks are, as well as how much energy your fridge consumes. Adjusting the temperature on your LG fridge is easy and you can do it yourself in a few minutes. Here’s how to do it step by step.
To adjust the temperature on your LG fridge, you need to locate the temperature buttons on the fridge’s control panel and press and hold them to adjust the temperature for both the fridge and freezer compartments.
