chapter for further details.

Programme

Installation

• Never attempt to operate the appliance if it is damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled, or has missing or broken parts, including a damaged cord or plug.

• This appliance should only be transported by two or more people holding the appliance securely.

• Do not install the appliance in a damp and dusty place. Do not install or store the appliance in any outdoor area, or any area that is subject to weathering conditions such as direct sunlight, wind, rain, or temperatures below freezing.

• Make sure the power plug is completely pushed into the power outlet.

• Do not plug the appliance into multiple outlet sockets, power boards, or an extension power cable.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Do not modify the power plug provided with the appliance. If it does not fit the power outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

• This appliance is equipped with a power cord having an equipmentearthing / grounding conductor (earthing pin) and a grounding power plug. The power plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet socket that is installed and earthed / grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

• Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

• This appliance must not be installed behind a lockable door, a sliding door or a door with a hinge on the opposite side to that of the appliance, in such a way that a full opening of the appliance door is restricted.

Operation

• Do not apply any sharp objects to the control panel in order to operate the appliance.

• Do not attempt to separate any panels or disassemble the appliance.

• Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance. All repairs and servicing must be performed by qualified service personnel unless specifically recommended in this Owner's Manual. Use only authorized factory parts.

• Do not push down the door excessively, when the appliance door is open.

• Do not put animals, such as pets into the appliance.

• Do not wash rugs, mats, shoes or pet blankets, stuffed toys, or any other items other than clothes or sheets, in this machine.

• Keep the area underneath and around the appliance free of combustible materials such as lint, paper, rags, chemicals, etc.

• Do not leave the appliance door open. Children may hang on the door or crawl inside the appliance, causing damage or injury.

• Do not put in, wash or dry articles that have been cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with combustible or explosive substances

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

(such as waxes, wax removers, oil, paint, gasoline, degreasers, drycleaning solvents, kerosene, petrol, spot removers, turpentine, vegetable oil, cooking oil, acetone, alcohol, etc.). Improper use can cause fire or explosion.

• Do not use or store flammable or combustible substances (ether, benzene, alcohol, chemical, LPG, combustible spray, gasoline, thinner, petroleum, insecticide, air freshener, cosmetics, etc.) near the appliance.

• Never reach into the appliance while it is operating. Wait until the drum has completely stopped.

• Do not touch the door during a high temperature programme.

• In case of a water leak from the appliance or flood, disconnect the power plug and contact the LG Electronics customer information centre.

• Turn off water taps to relieve pressure on hoses and valves and to minimize leakage if a break or rupture should occur. Check the condition of the fill hoses; they should be replaced after 5 years.

• If there is a gas leakage (isobutane, propane, natural gas, etc.) within the home, do not touch the appliance or power plug and ventilate the area immediately.

• If the drain hose or inlet hose is frozen during winter, use it only after thawing.

• Keep all washing detergents, softener and bleach away from children.

• Do not touch the power plug or the appliance controls with wet hands.

• Do not bend the power cable excessively or place a heavy object on it.

• Avoid touching any water that is drained from the appliance during the wash.

• Make sure that drainage is working properly. If water is not drained properly, your floor may get flooded.

• When the air temperature is high and the water temperature is low, condensation may occur and thus wet the floor.

• Wipe off dirt or dust on the contacts of the power plug.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Maintenance

• Disconnect the appliance from the power supply before cleaning the appliance. Setting the controls to the OFF or stand by position does not disconnect this appliance from the power supply.

• Securely plug the power plug in the outlet socket after completely removing any moisture and dust.

• Do not spray water inside or outside the appliance to clean it.

• Never unplug the appliance by pulling on the power cable. Always grip the power plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet socket.

• Only qualified service personnel from LG Electronics service centre should disassemble, repair, or modify the appliance. Contact an LG Electronics customer information centre if you move and install the appliance in a different location.

Disposal

• Before discarding an old appliance, unplug it. Cut off the cable directly behind the appliance to prevent misuse.

• Dispose of all packaging materials (such as plastic bags and styrofoam) away from children. The packaging materials can cause suffocation.

• Remove the door before disposing of or discarding this appliance to avoid the danger of children or small animals getting trapped inside.

CARING FOR THE ENVIRONMENT

Disposal of Your Old Appliance

• This crossed-out wheeled bin symbol indicates that waste electrical and electronic products (WEEE) should be disposed of separately from the municipal waste stream.

• Old electrical products can contain hazardous substances so correct disposal of your old appliance will help prevent potential negative consequences for the environment and human health. Your old appliance may contain reusable parts that could be used to repair other products, and other valuable materials that can be recycled to conserve limited resources.

• You can take your appliance either to the shop where you purchased the product, or contact your local government waste office for details of your nearest authorised WEEE collection point. For the most up to date information for your country, please see www.lg.com/global/recycling.
