Function Information
Our machine provides various washing methods which suits various conditions and types of laundry.
Different types of laundry washing
FUZZY(Normal) Wash
Use this Program for everyday washing e.g. sheets, towels, T-shirts. (refer to page 16)
STRONG (JEANS) Wash
Use this Program for heavily soiled durable garments e.g. overalls, jeans.
Thick and heavy clothes or those which are excessively dirty like jeans or working uniforms can be washed.(refer to page 16)
SMART RINSE
Use this program to get better rinsing performance. (refer to page 16)
GENTLE (WOOL) Wash
Wool clothes (lingerie, wool, etc.) which may be easily damaged can be washed. (refer to page 16)
The fibers of machine washable woolens have been specifically modified to prevent felting when they are machine washed. Most handknitted garments are not made of machine washable wool and we recommend that you hand wash them
•Before washing your woolens check the care label for the washing instructions.
•When washing woolens use a mild Detergent recommended for washing wool.
•Hand washed woolens may be spun in a washing machine to reduce the time they take to dry.
•To dry woolens lay down them flat on a towel and pat into shape. Dry woolens out of direct sunlight.
(The heat and tumble action of a dryer may cause shrinkage or felting of woolen garments.)
Some wool underlays and sheepskin products can be washed in a washing machine but may cause pump blockages. (Ensure that the whole article is suitable for machine washing and not just the backing material.)
You may wish to handwash these articles and place them in the machine to spin dry.
FAVORITE Wash
This setting allows you to store your FAVORITE was h conditions in the normal cycle memory. (refer to page 19)
SILENT Wash
Use this program to wash quietly at night. (refer to page 20)
Washing according to the condition of laundry
QUICK WASH
QUICK WASH can be selected to wash lightly soiled clothes of less than 2.0 kg in a short time. (refer to page 16)
SOAK Wash
SOAK Wash can be selected to wash heavily soiled laundry by soaking in water for some time to remove dirt and grime. (refer to page 18)
Other washing method
TUB CLEAN
Use this program to clean the inside of washing machine especially Inner tub & Outer tub . (refer to page 22)
DELAY START Wash
DELAY START Wash is used to delay the finishing time of the operation.
The number of hours to be delayed can be set by the user accordingly. (refer to page 25)
OPTION WASH
When the user needs only SPIN, RINSE/SPIN, RINSE, WASH/RINSE, WASH, WASH/RINSE/SPIN, SOAK/WASH/RINSE/SPIN. (refer to page 24)
Preparation BeforeWashing
Care Labels
* Look for acare label on your clothes This will tell you about the fabric content of your g arment 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) |
Separate clothes according to the type and amount of soil. |
• COLOR (Whites, Lights, Darks) |
Separate white fabrics from colored fabrics. |
• LINT (Lint Producers, Collectors) Separate lint producers and lint collectors. |
|
Lint Produ cers |
Terry cloth, Chenille Towels, Nappies, Diapers |
Lint Collectors |
Synthetics, Corduroy, P ermanent Press, Socks |
Check before Loading
•Check all pockets to make sure that they are emtpy. 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. |
WIRE |
•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)
Loading
Do not wash fabrics containing flammable materials (waxes, cleaning fluids, etc.).
Load Size
The WATER LEVELF 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.

Use of Water, Detergent, Bleach and Softener
Using Water
Amount of WATER LEVEL
•This machine detects the quantity of laundry automatically, then sets the WATER LEVEL and proper amount of Detergent.
•When you select a wash program, the WATER LEVEL will be shown on the control panel.
•The following table shows the amount of water.
•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.
WATER-DETERGENT
FULL
Inlet Water Temperature
•You can change the Inlet Water Temperature by pressing the INLETWATERTEMP.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.
Using Detergent
Detergent
Follow the Detergent package directions. Using too little Detergent is a common cause of laundry problems. Use more Detergent if you have hard water, large loads, greasy or oily soils or lower Water Temperature.
Choosing the right Detergent
We recommend the use of domestic Detergent, (powder, liquid or concentrated). Soap flakes or granulated soap powders should not be used in your washing machine. When washing woolens remember to use Detergent suitable for washing woolens.

<![if ! IE]><![endif]>Wash to Starting Before
Adding the detergent
Open the detergent dispenser and deposit the appropriate amount of detergent where you deposit the detergent Powder Detergent dispenser.
Some detergents MUST be fully dissolved before adding to your machine to get the best wash results. Check the instructions on the detergent packet.
If you use powdered detergent it is essential that the required amount be fully dissolved in very hot water before being added to warm or hot water for the actual wash.
Pre-dissolving detergent in warm water when washing in cold water can improve its performance.

Using Liquid Bleach
• Check clothing care label for special instructions and separate the |
Bleach ispenserd |
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
nNever pour undiluted liquid bleach directly onto clothes or into the wash basket. This may cause change of color or damage the laundry.
nDo not pour powdered bleach into bleach dispenser.
