The power outage indicator lets you know if the power supply to the refrigerator has been cut off and the freezer temperature has risen to 18°F (-8°C) or higher. When power has been restored, “PO” repeatedly flashes on the display screen and the red Power Outage icon appears. When the indicator is on, all other control and dispenser functions are disabled until you confirm that you are aware of the power outage.

If you unintentionally turn on Showroom mode, the word “Showroom” will light up on the display (on some models). The sequence for exiting showroom mode varies by model, so please refer to your Owner's Manual for full instructions.
Sabbath Mode (on some models) is designed for those whose religious observances require turning off the lights and dispensers.

The sequence for exiting Sabbath mode varies by model, so please refer to your Owner's Manual for full instructions.

Most refrigerator control panels located on the door have a "Child Lock" feature which prevents unwanted use of the controls. When activated, the control panel buttons will not work. On most models, pressing the "Child Lock" button for 3 to 4 seconds will lock and unlock this function.
The control board is the most sensitive component in the refrigerator. Therefore, it is easily damaged when a surge of electrical current creates excessive heat. Refrigerators with a damaged control board can often be repaired, as the board is relatively inexpensive and easy to replace on its own.
With an average repair cost of $440, a refrigerator's control board is generally the most expensive part to repair. However, every situation is different. Repairs for refrigerator control boards can go from as low as $80 to as high as $800.
Follow the instructions below depending on your model and what you would like to reset: Reset your refrigerator: First, unplug it (or turn off the power at the circuit breaker), and then wait about five minutes for the electrical charge to clear out of it. Then, power it back on again.
But even if your refrigerator isn't under warranty, the good news is that the average cost of refrigerator repairs is between $200 to $400, which is significantly less than the cost of a new fridge. So, check that warranty before you make any decisions.
As you might expect, the compressor is one of the most important parts of the refrigerator so it is one of the most expensive. While you can purchase the part yourself, it's not recommended that you try to replace it on your own.
The average lifespan of a refrigerator is about 13 years. However, this number can vary depending on the type of refrigerator and how it is maintained. Some types of refrigerators can last as long as 20 years, while others may need to be replaced after as little as five years.
If the control panel on your LG refrigerator is unresponsive, this can be an indicator that the control lock is active, there is inadequate power, or there is a malfunction with the unit.
