How to stop food from freezing in my LG GF-5D712SL Refrigerator compartment?

  To prevent food from freezing in your LG Refrigerator compartment, rearrange items with high water content away from air vents. If the refrigerator temperature control is set too cold, adjust it one increment at a time and wait for the temperature to stabilize. Also, ensure the refrigerator is not installed in a cold location, as it should not be operated in temperatures below 13°C.

Why is the cooling system in my LG GF-5D712SL running too much?

  If your LG Refrigerator cooling system runs too much, it could be due to several reasons. Modern refrigerators require more operating time but use less energy. If recently plugged in, it can take up to 24 hours to cool completely. Frequent door openings or adding a large amount of food warms the refrigerator, requiring the compressor to run longer. Ensure the doors are closed completely and that the refrigerator isn't installed in a hot location. Clean the condenser cover and vents with a vacuum cleaner attachment after disconnecting the mains.
