To minimize the risk of fire in a tumble dryer, the following should be observed:

•Items that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable or cooking oil constitute a fire hazard and should not be placed in a tumble dryer.

Oil-affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially when exposed to heat sources Such as in a tumble dryer. The items become warm, causing an oxidation reaction in the oil. Oxidation creates heat. If the heat cannot escape, the items can become hot enought to catch fire. Piling, stacking or storing oil-affected items can prevent heat from escaping and so create a fire hazard.

If it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable or cooking oil or have been contaminated by hair care products be placed in a tumble dryer they should first be washed in hot water with extra detergent-this will reduce, but not eliminate, the hazard. Washed in hot water with extra detergent-this will reduce, but not eliminate, the hazard. The ‘cool down’ cycle of tumble dryers should be used to reduce the temperature of the items. They should not be removed from the tumble dryer or piled or stacked while hot.

•Items that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted with petro/gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents or other flammable or explosive substances should not be placed in a tumble dryer.

Highly flammable substances commonly used in domestic environments include acetone, denatured alcohol, petrol/gasoline, kerosene, spot removers (some brands), turpentine, waxes and was removers.

•Items containing foam rubber (also known as latex foam) or similarly testured rubber. like materials should not be dried in a tumble dryer on a heat setting.

Foam rubber materials can, when heated, produce fire by spontaneous combustion.

•Fabric softeners or similar products should not be used in a tumble dryer to eliminate the effects of static electricity unless this practice is specifically recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.

•Undergarments that contain metal reinforcements should not be placed in a tumble dryer.

Damage to the tumble dryer can result if metal reinforcements come loose during drying. When available a drying rack could be used for such items.

•Plastic articles such as shower caps or babies waterproof napkin covers should not be placed in a tumble dryer.

•Rubber-backed articles, clothes fitted with foam rubber pads, pillows, galoshes and rubber-coated tennis shoes should not be placed in a tumble dryer.

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 that old hose-sets should not be used.

Connecting water supply hose

Water supply pressure must be between 30kPa and 1000kPa (0.3~10kgf/cm2) 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 these are in order to prevent water leaks.

• Check water tightness of washing machine connections by turning the tap completely on.

• 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.

When your washer has two valves.

•The Inlet hose which has red connector is for the hot water tap.

•If the washer has two valves, the energy is saved by using hot valve.

NOTE 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.

Level adjustment

Concrete floors

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.

NOTE 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.

NOTE 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.

•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.

C are before washing

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before operating this appliance.

1. Fabric 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.

2. Sorting

To get the best results, sort clothes into loads that can be washed with the same wash cycle. Different fabrics need to be washed in different ways.

Always sort dark colors from pale colors and whites. Wash separately as dye and lint transfer can occur causing discoloration of white clothing. If possible, do not wash heavily soiled items with lightly soiled ones.

	Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light)	Separate clothes according to amount of soil.
	Color (White, Lights, Darks)	Separate white fabrics from colored fabrics.
	Lint (Lint Producers, Collectors)	Wash lint producers and lint collectors separately.

3. Check before loading

Combine large and small items in a load. Load large items first. Large items should not be more than half the total wash load.

Do not wash single items. This may cause an out-of-balance load. Add one or two similar items.

• Check all the pockets to make sure that they are empty. Things such as clip, matches, pens, coins, and keys can damage both your washer and your clothes.

• Close zippers, hooks, and strings to make sure that these items do not snag on other clothes.

• Pretreat dirt and stains by brushing a little detergent dissolved in water onto stains like collars and cuffs to help lift dirt.

• Check the folds of the flexible gasket (gray) and remove any small articles,if any.

• Check inside of the drum and remove any left items in it for next wash cycle.

• Remove any clothing or items on the flexible gasket to prevent clothing and the gasket damages.
