P roduct Features

Protection against creases

With the alternating rotation of the drum, creasing is minimized.

Built-in heater

Internal heater automatically heats the water to the best temperature on selected cycles.

More economical with Intelligent Wash system

Intelligent Wash System detects the size of load and water temperature, and then determines the optimum water level and washing time to minimize energy and water consumption.

Child Lock

The Child Lock prevents children from pressing any button to change the settings during operation.

Low noise speed control system

By sensing the amount of load and balance, it evenly distributes load to minimize the spinning noise level.

Inverter Direct Drive system

The advanced Brushless DC motor directly drives the drum without belt and pulley.

6 Motion

Washer is able to perform various drum actions or a combination of different actions depending on the wash program selected. Combined with a controlled spin speed and the ability of the drum to

rotate both left and right, the wash performance of the machine is greatly improved, giving you perfect results every time.

Nut
	Tighten all 4
	locknuts securely

2.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 washer is level, tighten the lock nuts up towards the base of the washer. All lock nuts must be tightened.

•Diagonal Check

When pushing down the edges of the washing machine top plate diagonally,

the machine should not move up and down at all (Please, check both directions). If machine rocks when pushing the machine top plate diagonally, adjust the feet again.

If the washing machine is installed on a raised platform, it must be securely fastened in order to eliminate the risk of falling off.

I nstallation

Concrete floors

•The installation surface must be clean, dry and level.

•Install washer on a flat hard floor.

Tile floors (Slippery floors)

•Position each foot on the Tread Mate and level the machine to suit. (Cut Tread Mate into 70x70 mm sections and stick the pieces on to the dry tile where machine is to be placed.)

•Tread Mate is a self adhesive material used on ladders & steps that prevents slipping.

Wooden floors (Suspended floors)

•Wooden floors are particularly susceptible to vibration.

•To prevent vibration we recommend you place rubber cups under each foot under washer at least 15mm thick, secured to at least 2 floor beams with screws.

Rubber Cup

•If possible install the washer in one of the corners of the room, where the floor is more stable.

•Fit the rubber cups to reduce vibration.

•You can obtain the rubber cups (p/no.4620ER4002B) from the LG spares dept.

•Proper placement and levelling of the washer will ensure long, regular and reliable operation.

•The washer must be 100% horizontal and stand firmly in position.

•It must not “Seesaw” across corners under load.

•The installation surface must be clean, free from floor wax and other lubricant coatings.

•Do not let the feet of the washer get wet. If feet of the washer get wet, slipping may occur.

			Wash temperature

	Permanent press		Delicate
	Hand wash		Do not wash
	Sort laundry by...
	Soiling	Wash
		temperature
	Colour		Fabric type

1. Care Labels

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.

2. Sorting

To get the best results, sort clothes into loads that can be washed with the same wash cycle.

Water temperature and spin speed and different fabrics need to be washed in different ways.

Always sort dark colors from pale colors and whites. Wash separately as dye and lint transfer can occur causing discolouration of white etc. If possible, do not wash heavily soiled items with lightly soiled one.

•Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light)

Separate clothes according to amount of soil.

•Color (White, Lights, Darks)

Separate white fabrics from colored 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 out-of-balance load. Add one or two similar items.

•Check all pockets to make sure that they are empty. Items such as nails, hair clip, matches, pens, coins and keys can damage both your washer 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 little detergent dissolved in water onto stains like collars and cuffs to help lift dirt.

•Check the folds of the flexible gasket (gray) and remove any small articles.

•Check inside of the drum and remove any item from a previous wash.

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

Before the first wash, select a cycle (Cotton 60°C, add a half load of detergent) allow the unit to wash without clothing. This will remove residues and water from the drum that may have been left during manufacturing.
