- If the washing machine is delivered in winter and temperatures are below freezing, place the washing machine at room temperature for a few hours before putting it into operation.
Unpacking and Removing Shipping Bolts
1 Lift the washing machine off the foam base.
- After removing the carton and shipping material, lift the washing machine off the foam base. Make sure the tub support comes off with the base and is not stuck to the bottom of the washing machine.
- If you must lay the washing machine down to remove the carton base, always protect the side of the washing machine and lay it carefully on its side. DO NOT lay the washing machine on its front or back.

2 Remove the bolt assemblies.
- Starting with the bottom two shipping bolts, use the spanner (included) to fully loosen all shipping bolts by turning them counterclockwise. Remove the bolt assemblies by wiggling them slightly while pulling them out.

3 Install the hole caps.
- Locate the hole caps included in the accessory pack and install them in the shipping bolt holes.

NOTE
- Save the bolt assemblies for future use. To prevent damage to internal components, DO NOT transport the washing machine without reinstalling the shipping bolts.
- Failure to remove shipping bolts and retainers may cause severe vibration and noise, which can lead to permanent damage to the washing machine. The cord is secured to the back of the washing machine with a shipping bolt to help prevent operation with shipping bolts in place.
Using Non-Skid Pads (Optional)
If you install the washing machine on a slippery surface, it may move because of excessive vibration. Incorrect leveling may cause malfunction through noise and vibration. If this occurs, install the non-skid pads under the leveling feet and adjust the level.

- Use a dry rag to remove and clean foreign objects and moisture. If moisture remains, the non-skid pads may slip.
2 Adjust the level after placing the washing machine in the installation area.
3 Place the adhesive side of the non-skid pad on the floor.
- It is most effective to install the non-skid pads under the front legs. If it is difficult to place the pads under the front legs, place them under the back legs.



4 Ensure the washing machine is level.
- Push or rock the top edges of the washing machine gently to make sure that the washing machine does not rock. If the washing machine rocks, level the washing machine again.
Wooden Floors (Suspended Floors)
- Wooden floors are particularly susceptible to vibration.
- To prevent vibration we recommend you place rubber cups at least 15 mm thick of the each foot of the washing machine, secured to at least two floor beams with screws.
Rubber Cup


- If possible install the washing machine in one of the corners of the room, where the floor is more stable.
• Fit the rubber cups to reduce vibration. - You can obtain rubber cups (p/no.4620ER4002B) from the LG Service Centre.
NOTE
- Proper placement and leveling of the washing machine will ensure long, regular, and reliable operation.
- The washing machine must be 100% horizontal and stand firmly in position.
- It must not 'Seesaw' across corners under the load.
- The installation surface must be clean, free from floor wax and other lubricant coatings.
- Do not let the feet of the washing machine get wet. Failure to do so may cause vibration or noise.
Leveling the Washing Machine
If the floor is uneven, turn the adjustable feet as required (Do not insert pieces of wood etc. under the feet). Make sure that all four feet are stable and resting on the floor and then check that the appliance is perfectly level (Use a spirit level).
- Once the washing machine is level, tighten the lock nuts up towards the base of the washing machine. All lock nuts must be tightened.

- Diagonal Check
When pushing down the edges of the washing machine top plate diagonally, the washing machine should not move up and down at all (Check both directions). If the washing machine rocks when pushing the machine top plate diagonally, adjust the feet again.
NOTE
- Timber or suspended type flooring may contribute to excessive vibration and unbalance.
- If the washing machine is installed on a raised platform, it must be securely fastened in order to eliminate the risk of falling off.
Connecting Inlet Hose
- Water supply pressure must be between 0.1 MPa and 1.0 MPa (1.0–10.0 kgf/cm²).
- Do not strip or crossthread when connecting inlet hose to the valve.
- If the water supply pressure is more than 1.0 MPa, a decompression device should be installed.
- Periodically check the condition of the hose and replace the hose if necessary.
Checking Rubber Seal Inlet Hose
Two rubber seals are supplied with the water inlet hoses. They are used for preventing water leaks. Make sure the connection to taps is sufficiently tight.

• Symbols on the care labels.

Wash temperature

Normal machine wash

Permanent press

Delicate

Hand wash

Do not wash
2 Sorting laundry.
- To get the best results, sort clothes into loads that can be washed with the same wash cycle.
- Different fabrics need to be washed at varying temperatures and spin speeds.
-
Always sort dark colours from pale colours and whites. Wash separately as dye and lint transfer can occur causing discolouration of white and pale garments. If possible, do not wash heavily soiled items with lightly soiled ones.
-
Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light) Separate clothes according to amount of soil.
- Colour (White, Lights, Darks) Separate white fabrics from coloured fabrics.
- Lint (Lint producers, Collectors) Wash lint producers and lint collectors separately.
3 Caring before loading.
- Combine large and small items in a load. Load large items first.
- Large items should not be more than half the total wash load. Do not wash single items. This may cause an unbalanced load. Add one or two similar items.
- Check all pockets to make sure that they are empty. Items such as nails, hair clips, matches, pens, coins and keys can damage both your washing machine and your clothes.

- Close zippers, hooks and strings to make sure that these items don't snag on other clothes.
- Pre-treat dirt and stains by brushing a small amount of detergent dissolved water onto stains to help lift dirt.
- Check the folds of the flexible gasket (gray) and remove any small articles.
- Check inside the drum and remove any items from a previous wash.

- Remove any clothing or items from the flexible gasket to prevent clothing and gasket damage.

Detergent Dosage
- Detergent should be used according to the instruction of the detergent manufacturer and selected according to type, colour, soiling of the fabric and washing temperature.
- If too much detergent is used, too many suds can occur and this will result in poor washing results or cause heavy load to the motor.
- If you wish to use liquid detergent follow the guidelines provided by the detergent manufacturer.
- You can pour liquid detergent directly into the main detergent drawer if you are starting the cycle immediately.
- Do not use liquid detergent if you are using Time delay, or if you have selected Pre Wash, as the liquid may harden.
- If too many suds occur, reduce the detergent amount.
- Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for water temperature, water hardness, size and soil level of the load. For best results, avoid oversudsing.
- Refer to the label of the clothes, before choosing the detergent and water temperature:
- When using the washing machine, use designated detergent for each type of clothing only:
– General powdered detergents for all types of fabric
– Powdered detergents for delicate fabric
– Liquid detergents for all types of fabric or designated detergents only for wool - For better washing performance and whitening, use detergent with the general powdered bleach.
- Detergent is flushed from the dispenser at the beginning of the cycle.
NOTE
- Do not let the detergent harden.
Doing so may lead to blockages, poor rinse performance or odour.
• Full load : According to manufacturer's recommendation.
• Part load : 3/4 of the normal amount
• Minimum load : 1/2 of full load
Adding Detergent and Fabric Softener
