Industry First for Door-in-Door Design Features New Contoured Glass Finish

SEOUL, Dec. 29, 2014 — LG Electronics (LG) today announced plans to introduce its first double Door-in-Door^TM Mega-Capacity refrigerator (Model LPXS34886C) in 2015. The award-winning “door-in-door” concept pioneered by LG is among the highlights of cutting-edge refrigerator innovations to be unveiled at the 2015 International CES^® in Las Vegas next week.

This new model, which is expected to be ENERGY STAR^® certified, has two independent Door-in-Door^TM compartments, giving you the ultimate in convenience — better organization and easy access — while maximizing conservation of cold air. The right Door-in-Door^TM is accessible from the outside with a simple push of a button and can also be accessed from the inside, making it easy to load with often-used items like snacks, drinks, lunches and more. The left Door-in-Door^TM provides additional easy access storage space via a trigger on the bottom of the door. By utilizing LG’s innovative Door-in-Door^TM feature without opening the entire refrigerator, cold air loss is reduced by up to 47 percent to help keep food fresh longer.¹

Expertly crafted, the refrigerator also features contour processed, tempered glass that has been applied over curved glass. Black patterned finishing provides a stylish design that is both aesthetically pleasing and leaves the outside fingerprint and smudge resistant so it always looks its best. The refrigerator is also equipped with EasyLift™ Bins which allows users to adjust the height of the internal compartments to accommodate large or odd-shaped bottles.

“Our Door-in-Door™ has been without a doubt one of the most popular design features we’ve ever introduced,” said Seong-jin Jo, president and CEO of the LG Electronics Home Appliance & Air Solution Company. “With the introduction of the new Mega-Capacity Door-in-Door™, we’ve taken this popular feature and created an even better refrigerator. With this model, organizing food takes on a whole new level of satisfaction.”

The LG Mega-Capacity Door-in-Door^™refrigerator also offers Smart Diagnosis™ which allows call center representatives to quickly diagnose problems over the phone. LG’s Smart Diagnosis™ smartphone app² even allows homeowners to record and analyze signals from the refrigerator for immediate advice on repair options.
