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.
Sort clothes into loads that can be washed with the same wash cycle, Water Temperature and spin speed.
Sorting
To get the best results, different fabrics need to be washed in different ways.
• SOIL (Heavy, Normal, Light)
COLOR (Whites, Lights, Darks)
•
LINT (Lint Producers, Collectors)
•

Check before Loading
• 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
Pretreatment on stains or heavy soil
• 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.
(For more detail refer to page13)
Separate clothes according to the type and amount of soil.

Loading
Do not wash fabrics containing flammable materials (waxes, cleaning fluids, etc.)
Load Size
The WATER LEVEL should just cover the clothes. Adjust the load size
accordingly. Loosely load clothes not 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
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
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.

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
Amount of WATER LEVEL
• This machine detects the quantity of laundry automatically, then sets the
WATER LEVEL.
• When you select a wash program, the WATER LEVEL will be shown on
the control panel.
• The following table shows the amount of water level.
• 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.
NOTE
[ Minimum water amount]
It depends on laundry load and washer mode. Or manually you can pour a certain amount water into tub directly
to some height. That's because if water level reaches to the some height sensed by washer itself, washer
automatically operates. In other words, it is needed to pour water to the point when washer starts operating.
Water Temperature
•
You can change the Inlet Water Temperature by pressing the TEMP. button. (refer to page 14)
(Machine does not have internal heater, water temp. indicates the temp of inlet water feeded to machine)
• The temperature of the water impacts the effectiveness of all laundry additives and therefore, the cleaning results.
We recommend temperatures of:
- HOT 49~60°C… (120-140 F)White items, diapers, underclothing and heavily soiled, colorfast items.
- WARM 29~40°C… (85-105 F)Most items
- COLD* 18~24°C… (65-75 F)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
- Pretreat spots and stains
- Soak heavily soiled items
- Use appropriate bleach
* Temperature below 18°C… (65 F) 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 F).
If the temperature of the water in the tub is too cold for your hands, the Detergent will not activate and clean effectively.
NOTE
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.

Water Level and Amount of Detergent
l
Concentrated detergent: 20g per 30 liters of water.
l
Regular synthetic detergent: 30g per 30 liters of water.
l
When sensing water levels automatically, the amount of
detergent can differ according to the amount of laundry
even at the same water level.
l
For synthetic detergent, use one that generates less
bubbles. This type of detergent is specially designed
.
.
for washers
l
In case of using liquid detergent, dissolve it with water
(detergent: water=1:1) and deposit it through the bleach
deposit hole
l
The correct amount of detergent will vary depending
on the amount of soil in your clothes. (Jeans and work
clothes may need more detergent, while bath towels
usually need less.)
l
For liquid and concentrated detegants, follow the
recommondations of the detergent manufacturer.
Note : To check you are using the correct amount of Detergent, lift the lid of your machine about halfway through the wash. There should be a thin layer of foam over the surface of the water. Lots of
foam may look good, but it does not contribute to cleaning your clothes. No foam means not enough
Detergent has been used, soil and lint can settle back on the clothes or the washing machine.
If excess Detergent is used, the rinse will not be efficient. Also, it could cause environmental
pollution, so use it accordingly.
Adding the detergent
Add measured detergent to the detergent compartment of the dispenser drawer.
We recommend the use of powdered detergent in the dispenser when using a
delay wash function.
Detergent is flushed through the dispenser at the beginning of the wash phase.
Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for water temperature, water hardness,
size and soil level of the load.
Avoid using too much detergent in your washer, as it can lead to oversudsing and
detergent residue being left on the clothes.
Using Liquid Bleach
• Check clothing care label for special instructions and separate
the laundry to be bleached.
• Dilute liquid chlorine bleach.
• Measure the recommended amount of liquid bleach carefully
following instructions on the bottle.
• Before starting the washer, pour measured amount of bleach
directly into bleach dispenser. Avoid splashing or overfilling.
Powdered bleach should be mixed with water before pouring.
NOTE
n
Never pour undiluted liquid bleach directly onto clothes or into the wash basket.
This may cause change of color or damage the laundry.

* For optimizing the washing algorithm, the displaying time may be changed during washing-increased by
8minutes at maximum and decreased by 4 minutes at maximum.
* If the Detergent quantity is put more than the standard, for increasing the rinsing performance, it automatically
adds rinsing, and the remaining time may be increased.
* The standard detected by the sensor changing the algorithm is set by the normal standard. It may not be same to
the washing habit of a specific user. So, it does not matter that the user uses it according to her/his washing habit.
* The sensor for a Detergent quantity is designed to detect based on a synthetic Detergent powder. If you put a
liquid one or a natural one or too much bleaching agent, the detecting ability of the sensor may be decreased.

WASHING CONDITION INDICATOR (Applicable For i-Sensor models only)
• It only operates in FUZZY Program.
• During being detected by the sensor, the LED flashes green, orange
and red in turn. And, after detecting, the LED lights a specific color according to the detecting condition as
follows:
If the current washing condition (Detergent quantity, Water Temperature, water quality, etc.) is determined
as better than the standard one, it optimizes the algorithm to save the energy by decreasing washing
time/strength, and the LED automatically turns to red.
If the current washing condition is determined as worse than the standard one, it optimizes the algorithm by
increasing washing time/strength, and the LED automatically turns to orange.
If the current washing condition is determined as equal to the standard one, the algorithm has no change
and the LED turns to green.

the current leakage .
Grounding Method with Ground insert space Terminal
If the AC current outlet has a ground terminal, then
separate grounding is not required. Note that AC power
outlet configurations may differ from country to country
Caution
CAUTION related to the Power Cord
Most appliances recommend they should 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 insulations 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.
Other Grounding Method
Burying Copper Plate
Connect the Ground Wire to a Ground Copper

Cleaning the Inside of your Washer
If you use fabric softener or do regular COLD water washing, it is very important that you occasionally clean the
inside of your washer.
• Fill your washer with HOT water.
• Add about two cups of a powdered Detergent that contains phosphate.
• Let it operate for several minutes.
• Stop the washer, open the lid and leave it to soak overnight.
• After soaking, drain the washer and run it through a normal cycle.
Or use TUB CLEAN PROGRAM periodically.
We do not recommend that you wash clothes during this procedure.
Products that might damage your washing machine
• Concentrated bleaches and diaper sanitizer will cause damage to the paintwork and components of your washer.
• Hydrocarbon solvents i.e. petrol, paint thinners and lacquer thinners, etc. can dissolve plastic and blister paint
(Be careful when washing garments stained with these solvents as they are flammable DO NOT put them in
washer or dryer.)
• Some pretreatment sprays or liquids can damage your washer’s control panel.
• Use of dyes in your washer may cause staining of the plastic components. The dye will not damage the machine
but we suggest you thoroughly clean your washer afterwards. We do not recommend the use of dye strippers in
your washer.
