WARNING
y Two or more people are required when moving, unpack-
ing, and stacking the washer. Failure to follow this warning may result in damage to property or serious bodily harm.
y Store and install the washer where it will not be exposed
to weather or to temperatures below freezing. Failure to follow this warning can cause serious injury, fire, electric shock, or death.
y Properly ground the washer to conform with all electric
governing codes and ordinances. Failure to follow this
warning can cause serious injury, fire, electric shock, or death.
y To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not install the wash-
er in humid spaces. Failure to follow this warning can cause serious injury, fire, electric shock, or death.
y To ensure proper air flow, do not block the large opening on
the bottom of the washer with carpeting or other materials.
y Do not remove the ground prong. Do not use a 2-prong
adapter or 2-wire extension cord. Failure to follow these warnings can cause serious injury, fire, electric shock, or death.
CAUTION
y This pedestal washer must be installed underneath
a matching front-loading LG washing machine manu­factured after 2009. (The 29" wide machine must be stacked under a 29" wide LG front-loading washer. The 27" wide machine must be stacked under a 27" wide
LG front-loading washer.) y The pedestal washer will not work as a standalone unit. y The pedestal washer must be stacked under an LG
brand appliance in order to operate properly.
POWER OUTLET
y The power outlet must be within 60 in. (1.5 m) of
either side of the washer.
y The appliance and outlet must be positioned so
that the plug is easily accessible.
FLOORING
y To minimize noise and vibration, the washer MUST be
installed on a solidly constructed floor.
y Allowable slope under the entire washer is a maximum 1
inch. difference from side to side or from front to back.
y Installing on carpeting and soft tile surfaces is not
recommended.
y Never install the washer on a platform or weakly supported
structure.
NOTE: The washer must be installed on firm flooring to minimize vibration during the spin cycle. Concrete flooring is best, but a wood floor is sufficient, provided it is built to FHA standards. The washer should not be installed on rugs or exposed to weather.
Do not use a drip pan as it can block the drawer. Using the drip pan may result in increased vibration and noise during operation.

Carton Base
If you must lay the washer down to remove the base packaging materials, always protect the side of the washer and lay it carefully on its side. DO NOT lay the washer on its front or back.
2. Save the foam block for future use. If the washer must be moved in the future, the foam block will help prevent damage to the washer during transportation. NOTE: To prevent damage, do not remove the foam block until the washer is at the final location.
