CAUTION

The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with appliance.

CAUTION

CAUTION concerning the Power Cord

Most appliances recommend they be placed upon a dedicated circuit; that is, a single outlet circuit which powers only that appliance and has no additional outlets or branch circuits. Check the specification page of this owner's manual to be certain. Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets, extension cords, frayed power cords, or damaged or cracked wire insulation are dangerous. Any of these conditions could result in electric shock or fire. Periodically examine the cord of your appliance, and if its appearance indicates damage or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of the appliance, and have the cord replaced with an exact replacement part by an authorized servicer. Protect the power cord from physical or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted, kinked, pinched, closed in a door, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall outlets, and the point where the cord exits the appliance.

■ Washing Machine is to be connected to the water mains using new hose-sets and old hose-sets

should not be used.

■ Connecting water supply hose

Water supply pressure must be between 100kPa and 1000kPa (1. 0~10kgf/cm

Don’t strip or crossthread when connecting Inlet hose to the valve.

If the water supply pressure is more than 1000kPa, a decompression device should be installed.

• Two rubber seals are supplied with the water inlet hoses. They are used for preventing water leaks.

• Make sure the connection to taps is tight enough.

• Periodically check the condition of the hose and replace the hose if necessary.

• Make sure that there is no kink on the hose and that it is not crushed.

)

After completing connection, if water leaks from the hose, repeat the same steps. Use the most conventional type of faucet for water supply. In case the faucet is square or too big, remove the spacing ring before inserting the faucet into the adaptor.

Packaging material (e.g. Films, Styrofoam) can be dangerous for children. There is a risk of suffocation ! Keep all packaging well away from children

 Installation of drain hose

• When installing the drain hose sink, secure it tightly with a string.

• Proper securing of the drain hose will protect the floor from damage due to water leakage.

• The drain hose should not be placed higher than 100 cm above the floor.

• Proper securing of the drain hose will protect the floor from damage due to water leakage.

• When the drain hose is too long, do not force back into the washer. This will cause abnormal noise.

nstallation

NOTE

 Level adjustment

1. Adjusting the washing machine level properly prevents excessive

noise and vibration. Install the appliance on a solid and level floor surface, preferably in a corner of the room.

Timber or suspended type flooring may contribute to excessive vibration and unblance errors.

2. If the floor is uneven, adjust 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)

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

In the case that the washing machine is installed on a raised platform, it must be securely fastened in order to eliminate the risk that it might fall off.

❊ 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 of two directions) If machine rocks when pushing the machine top plate diagonally, adjust the feet again.



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,

• at least 15mm thick under the washer, secured to at least 2 floor beams with screws. If possible install the washer in one of the corners of the room, where the floor is more stable.

•

Insert the rubber cups to reduce vibration. You can obtain the rubber cups (p/no.4620ER4002B) from the LG spares dept.

Important!

•

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

•

The washer must be absolutely 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.
