12 INSTALLATION
Installation Place Requirements
Before installing the appliance, check the following information to make sure that the appliance should be installed in a correct place.
WARNING
•This appliance must only be used for domestic household purposes and should not be used in mobile applications.
Installation Location
•This appliance must be installed on firm flooring to minimize vibration during the spin cycle. Concrete flooring is best, being far less prone to vibration during the spin cycle than wooden floorboards or a carpeted surface.
•If it is impossible to avoid positioning the appliance next to a gas cooker or coal burning stove, an insulation (850 X 600 mm) covered with aluminum foil on the side facing the cooker or stove must be inserted between the two appliances.
•Ensure that when the appliance is installed, it is easily accessible for an engineer in the event of a breakdown.
•When installing the appliance, adjust all four feet using the transit bolt spanner provided to ensure the appliance is stable.
Floor Installation
To ensure sufficient clearance for water inlet hoses, drain hose and airflow, allow minimum clearances of at least 20 mm at the sides and 100 mm behind the appliance. Be sure to allow for wall, door, or floor moldings that may increase the required clearances.

NOTE
•Never try to level any uneven floor by putting pieces of wood, cardboard or similar materials under the appliance.
Wooden Floors (Suspended Floors)
When installing the appliance on wooden floors, use rubber cups to reduce excessive vibration and unbalance. Timber or suspended type flooring may contribute to excessive vibration and unbalance, errors and malfunction.
•To reduce vibration, we recommend placing at least 15 mm thickness of rubber cups a under each adjusting foot of the appliance, secured to at least two floor beams with screws.
•If possible, install the appliance in one of the corners of the room, where the floor is more stable.
•Fit the rubber cups to reduce vibration.
CAUTION
•If the appliance is installed on the unstable floor (e.g. wooden floor), the warranty does not cover any damages and cost occurred due to the installation on the unstable floor.

Electrical Connection
•Do not use an extension cord or double adapter.
•Always unplug the appliance and turn off the water supply after use.
•Connect the appliance to an earthed socket in accordance with current wiring regulations.
•The appliance must be positioned so that the plug is easily accessible.
•Power outlet must be within 1 meter of either side of the appliance.
WARNING
•Repairs to the appliance must only be carried out by qualified personnel. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious malfunctioning. Contact your local authorised LG repairer.
•The power plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet socket that is installed and
Unpacking the Appliance
Lifting the Appliance Off the Foam Base
* This feature may vary depending on the model purchased.
After removing the carton and shipping material, lift the appliance off the foam base.
*
•Make sure the tub support a* comes off with the base and is not stuck to the bottom of the appliance.
•If you must lay the appliance down to remove the carton base b, always protect the side of the appliance and lay it carefully on its side. Do not lay the appliance on its front or back.
Removing the Transit Bolt Assemblies
To prevent the appliance from severe vibration and breakage, remove transit bolts and retainers.
<![endif]>ENGLISH
global_main.book.book Page 14 Friday, November 6, 2020 4:55 PM
14 INSTALLATION
1 Starting with the bottom two transit bolts a, use the spanner (included) to fully loosen all transit bolts by turning them counterclockwise.
2 Remove the bolt assemblies by wiggling them slightly while pulling them out.
3 Install the hole caps.
•Locate the hole caps b included in the accessory pack or attached on the back.
NOTE
•Save the transit bolts and retainers for future use.
•Transport this appliance for the prevention of breakage as below:
-The transit bolts are reinstalled.
-The power cord is secured to the back of the appliance.
•If the appliance rocks when pushing the top plate of the appliance diagonally, adjust the feet again.
•Check whether the appliance is perfectly level after installation.
NOTE
•Timber or suspended type flooring may contribute to excessive vibration and unbalance. Reinforcement or bracing of the timber floor may need to be considered to stop or reduce excessive noise and vibration.
Adjusting and Levelling the Feet
When installing the appliance, the appliance should be aligned and perfectly level. If the appliance is not aligned and level properly, the appliance may be damaged or may not operate properly.
1 Turn the levelling feet as required if the floor is uneven.
•Do not insert pieces of wood etc. under the feet.
•Make sure that all four feet are stable and resting on the floor.
Levelling the Appliance
Checking the Level
When pushing down the edges of the top plate diagonally, the appliance should not move up and down at all (check both directions).
NOTE
•Do not install the washing machine on a plinth, stand or elevated surface unless it is

manufactured by LG Electronics for use with this model.
2 Check if the appliance is perfectly level using a spirit level a.
3 Secure the levelling feet with the lock nuts b by turning anti-clockwise against the bottom of the appliance.
4 Check if all lock nuts at the bottom of the appliance are secured properly.
NOTE
•Proper placement and levelling of the appliance will ensure long, regular, and reliable operation.
•The appliance must be 100% horizontal and stand firmly in position on a hard flat floor.
•It must not ‘Seesaw’ across corners under the load.
•Do not let the feet of the appliance get wet. Failure to do so may cause vibration or noise.
Connecting the Water Supply Hose
Note for Connection
•Water pressure must be between 50 kPa and 800 kPa (0.5‒8.0 kgf/cm²). If the water pressure
is more than 800 kPa, a decompression device should be installed.
•Periodically check the condition of the water supply hose and replace the water supply hose if necessary.
NOTE
•Do not overtighten the water supply hose or use mechanical devices to tighten onto the inlet valves.
•No further backflow protection required for connection to the water inlet.
Checking the Rubber Seal
Two rubber seals a are supplied with the water supply hose. They are used to prevent water leaks. Connection to taps is sufficiently tight.
•Do not use mechanical devices such as multi grips to tighten the water supply hose. Ensure that the curved end of the water supply hose is connected to the appliance.
Connecting the Hose to the Water Tap
Connecting Screw-Type Hose to Tap with Thread
Screw the supply hose connector onto the water supply tap. Hand tighten only with the aid of a soft
