WARNING:
• Connect the drain hose to the
outlet of the drain pump located at
the rear of the washing machine.
Attach the clip to the drain hose.
• And then push it toward the body of
the washing machine as indicated
by the arrow.
• Check that the drain hose is hung
up over the edge of the laundry tub.
• Do not use an extension hose.
NOTE :
•
The drain hose should always be properly secured to the drain or standpipe. Failure to secure
the drain hose properly can result in flooding and property damage.
• The end of the drain hose should be placed 39" (99 cm) above the floor.
• The drain must be installed in accordance with any applicable local codes and regulations.
• Make sure that the water lines are not stretched, pinched, crushed, or kinked.
• Do not insert the drain hose more than 12” (30 cm) into the drain pipe to avoid siphoning and
odor build-up.
• The washer should never be installed or stored in a location subject to freezing temperatures. If the
washer was exposed to freezing temperatures prior to installation, allow it to stand at room
temperature for several hours before use. Damage to the water lines and internal mechanisms of
the washer can result.
• Water supply pressure must be between 14.5 psi and 116 psi (100 ~ 800kPa) If the water supply
pressure is more than 116 psi, a pressure reducing valve must be installed. If you have uncontrolled
water temperature and pressure you should fit a temperature and pressure relief valve to ensure
that water temperature and water pressure remain within the safe limits. Consult a plumber or
electrician if you are unable to adjust water temperature and or pressure. Failure to do so can result
in damage to the machine.
• Plug the power cord of washer into a properly grounded outlet. Failure to do this can result in shock
or serious injury.

Care Labels

Check before Loading
Pretreatment on stains or heavy soil
WARNING
Loading
* Look for a care label on your clothes. This will tell you about the fabric content of your garment
and how it should be washed.
Sort clothes into loads that can be washed with the same wash cycle, Water Temperature and spin speed.
• Check all pockets to make sure that they are empty. Things such as nails, hairclips, matches, pens, coins,
and keys can damage both your washer and your clothes.
• Mend any torn garments or loose buttons. Tears or holes may become larger during washing.
• Remove belts, underwires, etc. to prevent damage to the machine or your clothes.
• Pretreat any dirt and stains.
• Make sure the clothes are washable in water.
• Check the washing instructions.
• Remove tissue in pockets.
• Pretreat shirt collars and cuffs with a pre-wash product or liquid Detergent when placing them in the washer.
Before washing treat special stains with bar soaps, liquid Detergent or a paste of water and granular Detergent.
• Use a pretreat soil and stain remover.
Treat stains AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. The longer they are left the harder they are to remove.
Do not wash fabrics containing flammable materials
(waxes, cleaning fluids, etc.).
Load Size
Load Size
The WATER LEVEL should just cover the clothes. Adjust the load size
accordingly. Loosely load clothes no higher than the top row of holes in
the washer tub. To add items after washer has started, press START
button and submerge additional items. Close the lid and press START
button again to restart.
Light and Large-sized clothing
Light and Large-sized clothing
Clothes like downs and woollens are light weight, large and float easily.
Use a nylon net and wash them in a small amount of water. If the laundry floats during the wash cycle,
it may become damaged. Use dissolved Detergent to prevent the Detergent from clumping.
Long laundry items
Long laundry items
Use nylon nets for long, DELICATE items. For laundry with long strings or long length , a net will
prevent tangling during washing. Fasten zippers, hook, and strings to make sure that these items
don't snag on other clothes.
※
Nylon net is not supplied by LG.
• SOIL (Heavy, Normal, Light) Separate clothes according to the type and amount of soil.
• COLOR (Whites, Lights, Darks) Separate white fabrics from colored fabrics.
• LINT (Lint producers, Collectors) Separate lint producers and lint collectors.
Lint Producers Terry cloth, Chenile, Towels, Nappies, Diapers
Lint Collectors Synthetics, Corduroy, Permanent Press, Socks
Fire Hazard
Never place items in the washer that are
dampened with gasoline or other flammable
fluids.
No washer can completely remove oil.
Do not dry anything that has ever had any type
of oil on it (including cooking oils).
Doing so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

Using Water
Water Temperature
Using the Dispenser Drawer
NOTE
NOTE
[ Minimum water amount ]
It depends on laundry load and washer model. If adding water manually at the beginning of a wash, the water
sensor will then allow the machine to start washing when the minimum amount of water has been added.
If iron is present in the water the clothes may become an all-over yellow or they may be stained with brown or
orange spots or streaks. Iron is not always visible. Installation of water softener or an iron filter may be necessary
for severe cases.
• The machine sets the appropriate temperature automatically according to the wash program.
• You can change the Water Temperature by pressing the WATER TEMP. button. (refer to page 14)
• The temperature of the water impacts the effectiveness of all laundry additives and therefore, the cleaning results.
We recommend temperatures of:
- HOT 49~55°C…(120-140 ) White items, diapers, underclothing and heavily soiled, colorfast items.
- WARM 29~40°C…(85-105 ) Most items
- COLD* 18~24°C…(65-75 ) Only very bright colors with light soil.
• When washing in COLD water additional steps may be needed:
- Adjust Detergent amount and pre-dissolve Detergent in WARM water and add to the machine by hand.
- Pretreat spots and stains
- Soak heavily soiled items
- Use appropriate bleach
* Temperature below 18°C…(65 ) will not activate laundry additives and may cause lint, residue, poor cleaning,
etc. In addition, Detergent manufactures and care labels define COLD water as 26~29°C…(80-85 ).
If the temperature of the water in the tub is too cold for your hands, the Detergent will not activate and clean effectively.
The dispenser drawer contains 2 compartments:
• Liquid Fabric Softener
• Liquid or Powder Low-Sudsing, High-Efficiency Detergent
The dispenser automatically dispenses additives at the proper time in the wash cycle.
1.Slowly open the dispenser drawer by pulling the drawer out until it stops.
2. After adding laundry products, slowly close the dispenser drawer. Closing the drawer
too quickly could result in early dispensing of additives.
• Avoid overfilling or splashing when adding laundry products to the dispenser.
Doing so could result in early dispensing of laundry products.
At the end of the cycle, you may see water in the compartments. This is part of the
normal operation of the washer.
NOTE: Do not use bleach in the dispenser drawer.
Amount of WATER LEVEL
• This machine detects the quantity of laundry automatically, then sets the WATER LEVEL
and displays the amount of detergent to be used.
• When you select a wash program, the WATER LEVEL and amount of Detergent (to be
used) will be shown on the control panel.
• The following table shows the amount of water.
• When the WATER LEVEL is automatically detected, it may differ depending on the quantity
of laundry even though the same WATER LEVEL is indicated on the control panel.
