• Under certain conditions hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that has not been
used for two weeks or more. Hydrogen gas can be explosive under these circumstances. If the
hot water has not been used for two weeks or more, prevent the possibility of damage or injury
by turning on all hot water faucets and allowing them to run for several minutes. Do this before
using any electrical appliance which is connected to the hot water system. This simple
procedure will allow any built-up hydrogen gas to escape. Since the gas is flammable, do not
smoke or use an open flame or appliance during this process.
• The base opening must not be obstructed by carpeting when the washing machine is installed on
a carpeted floor.
• Install or store where it will not be exposed to temperatures below freezing or exposed to the
weather.
• Properly ground washer to conform with all governing codes and ordinances. Follow details in
Installation Instructions.
• Must be positioned so that the plug is accessible.
• Keep the area underneath and around your appliances free of combustible materials such as lint,
paper, rags, chemicals, etc.
• Close supervision is necessary if this appliance is used by or near children. Do not allow children
to play on, with, or inside this or any other appliance.
• Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner's Manual.
• Never reach into washer while it is moving. Wait until the machine has completely stopped
before opening the lid.
• Do not mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or acids such as vinegar and/or rust remover. Mixing
different chemicals can produce a toxic gas which may cause death.
• Do not wash or dry articles that have been cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with
combustible or explosive substances (such as wax, oil, paint, gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents,
kerosene, etc.) which may ignite or explode. Do not add these substances to the wash water. Do
not use or place these substances around your washer or dryer during operation.
• The laundry process can reduce the flame retardancy of fabrics. To avoid such a result, carefully
follow the garment manufacturer's wash and care instructions.
• To minimize the possibility of electric shock, unplug this appliance from the power supply or
disconnect the washer at the household distribution panel by removing the fuse or switching off
the circuit breaker before attempting any maintenance or cleaning.
NOTE: Pressing Power button to turn off does NOT disconnect the appliance
from the power supply.
• Never attempt to operate this appliance if it is damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled,
or has missing or broken parts, including a damaged cord or plug.
• Turn off water faucets to relieve pressure on hoses and valves and to minimize leakage if a break
or rupture should occur. Check the condition of the fill hoses; they may need replacement after 5
years.
• Before discarding a washer, or removing it from service, remove the washer lid to prevent
children from hiding inside.
• Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of this appliance unless specifically recommended in
this Owner's Manual, or in published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the
skills to carry out.
• Do not tamper with controls.

unction Information
Our machine provides various washing methods which suits various conditions and
types of laundry.
Fuzzy(Normal) Wash
Jean Wash
Wool Wash
Economy Wash
Speedy Soak Wash
Delay start Wash
Option Wash
Use this Program for everyday washing e.g. sheets, towels, T-shirts.
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.
Delicate clothes (lingerie, wool, etc.) which may be easily damaged can be washed.
(refer to page14)
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.
Economy wash can be selected to wash lightly soiled clothes of less than 2.0 kg in a short time.
Speedy Soak Wash is designed to maximize washing performance and can be selected to wash heavily
soiled laundry with Fuzzy or Jean Program.
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.
Spin, Rinse/Spin, Rinse, Wash/Rinse, and Wash only options can selected.

• 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.
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 Producers Terry cloth, Chenile, Towels, Nappies, Diapers
Lint Collectors Synthetics, Corduroy, Permanent Press, Socks
Sorting
Check before Loading
* 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.
Care Labels
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.
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.
Light and Large-sized clothing
Long laundry items
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 no 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.
Loading
• 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 page11)
Pretreatment on stains or heavy soil
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.

Attentión
Using Detergent
How much detergent
When you select a wash program the water level and the amount of detergent (to be used) will be
shown on the control panel. The amount of a cup in the diagram is about 40g for concentrated
detergent.
The correct amount of detergent will vary depending on the amount of soil in your clothes (Jeans
and work cloches may need more detergent, while bath towels usually need less.).
For liquid and concentrated detergents, follow the recommendations of the detergent manufacturer.
Note: To check you are using the correct amount of detergent, lift the lid of your machine
about half-way 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 as clean and efficient. Also, it could cause
environmental pollution, so use it accordingly.

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 Fabric Softener
If you wish to use fabric softener we recommend
Attention
■ Do not mix with detergent or bleach.
■ Never pour fabric softener directly on clothes. It may stain them.
■ Do not stop the washer during the first spin for timely dispensing.
■ Option washing is not designed to be used with fabric softener dispenser.
• Dilute fabric softener with water.
Undiluted fabric softener may result in spots that look like oil
stains.
• Measure and add the recommended amount of fabric softener
into the compartment marked with this symbol( ).
Follow manufacturer’s direction.
Fabric softener is automatically dispensed in the final rinse
with indication beep.
If you want extra rinse, you must add fabric softener
manually when indication beep rings in the final rinse.
This maximize the fabric softener function.
• Do not overfill. The dispenser hold max 35mL.
Never add more than 35mL.
Overfilling can cause early dispensing of the fabric softener
which could result in stained clothes. A cup with a pouring spout will help you avoid spilling.
• The effect of adding fabric softener may vary according to its viscosity. The stickier fabric softener makes its
effect the lower. For a sticky fabric softener it is recommended that it be diluted with water, then be manually
put during the time when the washer beeps several times before the final rinse. This function informing
correct time to dispense manually is optionally applied to some models. Please keep it in mind that fabric
softener has to be diluted with water before dispensed and never poured directly on clothes.
Scrud(Waxy Build up)
Softener dispenser ( )
or
Scrud is the name given to the waxy build-up that can occur within any washer when the fabric softener
comes into contact with detergent. This build-up is not brought about by a fault in the machine.
If scrud is allowed to build-up in the machine it can result in stains on your clothes or an unpleasant
smell in your washer.
• Using fabric softener sparingly.
• When filling the dispenser, do not splash or overfill.
• Clean dispenser as soon as the cycle is finished.
• Clean your machine regularly. (refer to page 26)
• Cold water washing increases the chance of this build-up occurring. We recommend a regular warm or hot
wash e.g. every 5th wash should be at least a warm one.
• Fabric softener of thinner consistency is less likely to leave residue on the dispenser and contribute to a
build-up.
