LG Refrigerator (French Door) Lo error code

Difficulty: Easy · Cost: $0 · Duration: Clears automatically when ambient temperature rises

Lo is not an error code. It is a warning that the ambient temperature in the room where the refrigerator is installed has dropped below -10 degrees Celsius. LG refrigerators are not designed to operate optimally in environments this cold — very low ambient temperatures can affect the compressor and cooling performance. If your refrigerator is in a garage or utility room during winter this warning may appear. Moving the unit to a warmer location or insulating the space will resolve it.

1

2
