† Some fabrics marked with a "do not wash" label, such as fur and leather, can be used with the appliance.

Sorting Items

  • For best fabric care results, always treat fabrics with similar care requirements together.
  • Different fabrics have different care requirements, and some fabrics cannot be treated using certain cycles or should be treated separately.

Checking Items before Loading

Some items are not appropriate for use with the appliance. Using the wrong cycle for items can result in damage to fabrics.

  • Check all pockets to make sure that they are empty. Items such as clips, pens, coins, and keys can damage both the appliance and your clothes.
  • Do not put items that are sensitive to heat or are not suitable for washing with water in Styler cycles that use steam. Use the Gentle Dry cycle only.
  • Fur and leather (only 100% real leather) should only be treated with the Fur/Leather Care cycle. This cycle is a downloadable cycle.

  • Wash heavily soiled or stained clothes before putting them in the appliance. The appliance does not have a washing function. Loose soil or stains can be transferred between garments during cycles.

  • Treat items with an unpleasant odor in a separate load. Odors can be transferred between items during cycles.
  • Clothing should be securely fastened, with zippers and buttons closed, so that it does not fall off the moving hanger during the cycle.
  • Do not put very wet items in the appliance to dry. Shake off or wring out excess water before putting items in the cabinet to dry. If a large amount of water pools in the cabinet, styling performance may suffer or the appliance may be damaged.

Checking Items before Every Load

Checking the Lint Filter

Always make sure the lint filter is clean before starting a new load; a clogged lint filter will increase styling times.

1 Open the front grille ① and take out the lint filter ②.

3 Close the aroma filter and insert it back in the appliance.

- Insert the aroma filter in the direction of the arrow. You can adjust the opening of the aroma filter using the adjustment lever. The more open the aroma filter is, the richer the aroma gets.

Front OPEN CLOSE

4 When the cycle is complete, remove the aroma filter and discard the fabric softener sheet.

5 Reinsert the aroma filter.

NOTE

- Instead of using a fabric softener sheet, you can spray perfume 4–5 times on a cotton pad and then place it in the aroma filter to use. (However, the fragrance strength can vary depending on the scent.)

Checking the Water Tanks

Check the water in the water tanks before use. The water supply tank must be filled with water before using the appliance. The appliance does not work without water. The water drain tank should be emptied before each use.

1 Pull the handle of the tank forward and remove the tanks from the appliance. Check the water level of the tanks.

Diagram showing two labeled storage compartments with arrows indicating movement or flow, likely illustrating a system or process.

2 Make sure the water supply tank is filled with water.

- The full water supply tank can be used approximately four times, depending on the cycles used.

- Use clean tap water or bottled water for best performance and longer product life. Do not use distilled water or reuse the water from the drain tank.

- The first time the appliance is used, 2/3 of the water in the fully filled water supply tank is used. Less water is used in following cycles.

CAUTION

- Only use water when filling the water supply tank. Any other substance, such as detergent or fabric softener, may damage the appliance.

- Use only clean tap water or bottled water. Foreign materials in the water may shorten the lifespan of the appliance.

- Do not use distilled water. The water sensor may not work.

- Do not reuse the water in the drain tank to fill the water supply tank.

3 Make sure the water drain tank is empty.

4 The drain tank will be filled after about three uses. The tank fills more quickly during styling cycles. The appliance does not work if the drain tank is full.

- Some discoloration of the water drain tank may occur over time. This is normal and will not affect product performance.

The Moving Hanger

Hang clothes on the moving hanger using the hangers provided with the appliance, or use any plastic or metal hanger that hooks snugly into the indentations in the moving hanger.

LG S5WBC - The Moving Hanger - 1

natural_image Interior view of a wardrobe with hanging clothes and overhead lighting (no text or symbols visible)
  • Use the moving hanger for suits, coats, jackets, blouses, dresses, skirts, and pants that don't require a crease. Use the Pants Crease Care to crease pants.
    • Anything that can be securely placed on a hanger and steamed or dried without retaining hanger marks or other damage can be placed on the moving hanger.
  • Style sweaters or knits on the shelf to avoid hanger marks.
  • Arrange clothing so it does not touch the sides or rear of the cabinet, if possible. Condensation may form on the interior surface of the cabinet, and items in contact with the surface may remain damp at the end of the cycle.
  • The moving hanger will move even when only the shelf is being used.
  • When using an ordinary metal/plastic hanger, the hook should be less than 5/32 in. (4 mm) thick and the hook must fit in the indentation in the moving hanger snugly. If the fit is too loose, it may result in vibration, noise and damage to clothing.

LG S5WBC - The Moving Hanger - 2

CAUTION

  • Remove empty hangers from the moving hanger and place them on the shelf before starting a cycle. Empty hangers may cause unnecessary noise, friction, and damage to fabrics.
  • Do not lean or pull on the moving hanger.
  • Hang hangers in the same direction on the moving hanger to prevent collisions.
  • Do not allow children to play with or hang onto the moving hanger. The appliance could tip, resulting in damage or injury.

Using the Moving Hanger

1 Insert hangers into slots and pull down to secure the hook snugly.

- Hooks should fit down in the slots snugly to prevent noise, vibration, or damage to items during operation.

NOTE

- Do not overcrowd items. The fewer items, the better the styling performance. Items that touch the sides of the cabinet may pick up condensation from the cabinet and fail to style completely.

Using Hangers

The hangers that come with the appliance are for use with the appliance only. Any plastic or metal hanger that has a hook less than 5/32" (4 mm) thick and hooks snugly into the indentations in the moving hanger can be used in the appliance.

  • Do not use hangers with wool, knitwear, or delicate lingerie. The garments may stretch or be left with hanger marks.
  • Wrinkles may appear at the back of the collar on some garments.
  • Remove empty hangers or store them in the shelf during operation.
  • Fasten buttons and zippers on hanging clothes to prevent them from falling off hangers during operation. Fasten the neck area with cotton string if there is no button or zipper.
  • Remove or store the shelf when hanging longer items so items won't get wrinkled.

1 Select an appropriate hanger.

- Choose the appliance hanger that fits the item you are hanging up.

2 Fasten the buttons and zippers on all garments and hang them on hangers.

- Doing so helps keep the garments from falling or becoming more wrinkled during the cycle. If a garment has no buttons or

zipper, fasten it with a cotton string around the collar area.

The Pants Hanger

Place pants either on the moving hanger or in the Pants Crease Care, depending on whether maintaining the creases on the pants legs is desired.

  • Hanging pants on the moving hanger may reduce the creases on pants legs.
    • To maintain the creases on pants legs, use the Pants Crease Care.
  • Pants should be no wider than 44 1/16 in. (112 cm) or longer than 45 1/4 in. (115 cm) to fit in the Pants Crease Care. Check the size of the pants before using the Pants Crease Care. If pants are too large, use the moving hanger.
  • The fabric content of the garments affects how well wrinkles are reduced.

Opening and Closing the Pants Hanger

TROUBLESHOOTING

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What are aroma sheets and how do I use them?

A: You can use your favorite brand of dryer fabric softener sheets in the aroma filter to infuse items with a refreshing aroma. The sheets will not soften garments or reduce static. To use the aroma filter, add a softener sheet before running a cycle. Dispose of the softener sheet at the end of the cycle. For best performance, clean the aroma filter after every 5-7 uses. See Checking the Aroma Filter, and Cleaning the Aroma Filter.

Q: Can I put fur, leather, or silk items in the appliance?

A: Download the Fur/Leather Care cycle for use with fur or leather, or the Silk Care cycle for use with silk items in the appliance. For instructions on downloading new cycles for the appliance, see Smart Functions and the instructions in the LG ThinQ smartphone application.

Q: Why is the cycle time longer than estimated for the Gentle Dry cycle?

A: The appliance uses a sensor to sense the dryness of fabrics. If clothing or other items are not dried properly, the cycle time is extended automatically.

Q: Can I install the appliance on carpeting?

A: If installing on carpeting (especially on padded or deep pile carpets), stabilize the unit by installing the rear leveling legs and the four carpet spikes. For instructions, see Installing on Carpeting.

Extra care must be taken to keep the area around the machine clean and dry. Do not open the cabinet during operation. There is a risk of burns or injury, and condensation from escaping hot air or steam could result in damage to carpeting.

PROCEDURE FOR RESOLVING DISPUTES:

ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND LG ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR THE PRODUCT SHALL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY THROUGH BINDING ARBITRATION, AND NOT IN A COURT OF GENERAL JURISDICTION. BINDING ARBITRATION MEANS THAT YOU AND LG ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

Definitions. For the purposes of this section, references to “LG” mean LG Electronics U.S.A., Inc., its parents, subsidiaries and affiliates, and each of their officers, directors, employees, agents, beneficiaries, predecessors in interest, successors, assigns and suppliers; references to “dispute” or “claim” shall include any dispute, claim or controversy of any kind whatsoever (whether based in contract, tort, statute, regulation, ordinance, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal or equitable theory) arising out of or relating in any way to the sale, condition or performance of the product or this Limited Warranty.

Notice of Dispute. In the event you intend to commence an arbitration proceeding, you must first notify LG in writing at least 30 days in advance of initiating the arbitration by sending a letter to LG at LG Electronics, USA, Inc. Attn: Legal Department-Arbitration 111 Sylvan Avenue, Englewood Cliffs, NJ 07632. You and LG agree to engage in good faith discussions in an attempt to amicably resolve your claim. The

notice must provide your name, address, and telephone number; identify the product that is the subject of the claim; and describe the nature of the claim and the relief being sought. If you and LG are unable to resolve the dispute within 30 days, either party may proceed to file a claim for arbitration.

Agreement to Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver. Upon failure to resolve the dispute during the 30 day period after sending written notice to LG, you and LG agree to resolve any claims between us only by binding arbitration on an individual basis, unless you opt out as provided below. Any dispute between you and LG shall not be combined or consolidated with a dispute involving any other person's or entity's product or claim. More specifically, without limitation of the foregoing, any dispute between you and LG shall not under any circumstances proceed as part of a class or representative action. Instead of arbitration, either party may bring an individual action in small claims court, but that small claims court action may not be brought on a class or representative basis.

Arbitration Rules and Procedures. To begin arbitration of a claim, either you or LG must make a written demand for arbitration. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") and will be conducted before a single arbitrator under the AAA's Consumer Arbitration Rules that are in effect at the time the arbitration is initiated (referred to as the "AAA Rules") and under the procedures set forth in this section. The AAA Rules are available online at www.adr.org/consumer. Send a copy of your written demand for arbitration, as well as a copy of this provision, to the AAA in the manner described in the AAA Rules. You must also send a copy of your written demand to LG at LG Electronics, USA, Inc. Attn: Legal Department-Arbitration 111 Sylvan Avenue, Englewood Cliffs, NJ 07632. If there is a conflict between the AAA Rules and the rules set forth in this section, the rules set forth in this section will govern. This arbitration provision is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator's award in any court of competent jurisdiction. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except that issues relating to the scope and enforceability of the arbitration provision and to the arbitrability of the dispute are for the court to decide. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this provision.

Governing Law. The law of the state of your residence shall govern this Limited Warranty and any disputes between us except to the extent that such law is preempted by or inconsistent with applicable federal law.

Fees/Costs. You do not need to pay any fee to begin an arbitration. Upon receipt of your written demand for arbitration, LG will promptly pay all arbitration filing fees to the AAA unless you seek more than \$25,000 in damages, in which case the payment of these fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. Except as otherwise provided for herein, LG will pay all AAA filing, administration, and arbitrator fees for any arbitration initiated in accordance with the AAA Rules and this arbitration provision. If you prevail in the arbitration, LG will pay your attorneys' fees and expenses as long as they are reasonable, by considering factors including, but not limited to, the purchase amount and claim amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if applicable law allows for an award of reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, an arbitrator can award them to the same extent that a court would. If the arbitrator finds either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all arbitration fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In such a situation, you agree to reimburse LG for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Except as otherwise provided for, LG waives any rights it may have to seek attorneys' fees and expenses from you if LG prevails in the arbitration.

Hearings and Location. If your claim is for \25,000 or less, you may choose to have the arbitration conducted solely on the basis of (1) documents submitted to the arbitrator, (2) through a telephonic hearing, or (3) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds \25,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Any in-person arbitration hearings will be held at a location within the federal judicial district in which you reside unless we both agree to another location or we agree to a telephonic arbitration.

Opt Out. You may opt out of this dispute resolution procedure. If you opt out, neither you nor LG can require the other to participate in an arbitration proceeding. To opt out, you must send notice to LG no later than 30 calendar days from the date of the first consumer purchaser's purchase of the product by either: (i) sending an e-mail to optout@lge.com, with the subject line: "Arbitration Opt Out" or (ii) calling 1-800-980-2973. You must include in the opt out e-mail or provide by telephone: (a) your name and address; (b) the date on which the product was purchased; (c) the product model name or model number; and (d) the serial number (the serial number can be found (i) on the product; or (ii) online by accessing https://

www.lg.com/us/support/repair-service/schedule-repair-continued and clicking on "Find My Model & Serial Number").

You may only opt out of the dispute resolution procedure in the manner described above (that is, by e-mail or telephone); no other form of notice will be effective to opt out of this dispute resolution procedure.

Opting out of this dispute resolution procedure will not affect the coverage of the Limited Warranty in any way, and you will continue to enjoy the full benefits of the Limited Warranty. If you keep this product and do not opt out, then you accept all terms and conditions of the arbitration provision described above.
