The motor assembly also contains fewer moving parts, thus resulting in fewer repairs.
Should you experience any technical difficulty with your washing machine, it has the capability of transmitting data by phone to the Customer Information Center. The call center agent records the data transmitted from your machine and uses it to analyze the issue, providing a fast and effective
diagnosis (Refer to page 45).
Cleaning of the tub on a regular monthly basis using Tub Clean can help keep the tub clean and fresh.
Safely and conveniently secure the door slightly ajar with the magnetic door plunger. This will pro- mote air circulation and allowthe interior of the machine to dry. To use this feature, after the load has
been removed, do not close the door completely. When the magnetic door plunger comes into contact with the metal washer cabinet, it will secure the
door slightly open allowing the interior of the washer to dry.
The large capacity stainless steel drum offers extreme durability and is tilted to improve efficiency and allow easier access for large items.
Use this option to disable the controls during a wash cycle. This option can prevent children from
changing cycles or operating the machine.
The four-compartment dispenser drawer makes it easy to separate the pre-wash detergent, main laundry detergent, liquid bleach, and fabric softener into different compartments.
The Tag On feature works on most NFC equipped smart phones by communicating with your Tag On equipped LG appliance. Using the LG Smart Laundry application, the Tag On feature allows you
to diagnose your appliance, download new cycles, and see the status of your appliance by simply touching the smart phone to the Tag On logo of the appliance.

12 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Checking and choosing fhe proper Iocafion
Install the washing machine on a solid floor that is strong and rigid enough to support the weight of the washing machine, even when fully loaded, without flexing or bouncing. If the floor has too much flex, you may need to reinforce it to make it more rigid. If the floor is not solid, it may cause
severe vibration and noise.
Clean the floor before installation.
- Make sure to select solid and smooth ground.
2 Two or more people are needed for moving and
unpacking the washing machine.
3 Allow for sufficient space between the walls and
the washing machine for installation.
You must allow sufficient space for water lines, the drain line, and airflow.
_@ NOTE ....................................................................................................................................................................
', Be sure to allow for wall, door, or floor ' moldings that may increase the required
, clearances.
\ J
@ NOTE-
, The floor must be strong and rigid enough
to support the weight of the washer, when fully loaded, without flexing or bouncing. If
your floor has too much flex, you may need to reinforce it to make it more rigid.
A floor that is adequate for a top-loading washer may not be rigid enough for a front-
loading washer, due to the difference in the spin speed and direction. If the floor is not solid, your washer may vibrate and you may
hear and feel the vibration throughout your
house.
Before installing the washer, make sure the floor is clean, dry and free of dust, dirt, water and oil so the washer feet can not
slide easily. Leveling feet that can move or slide on the floor can contribute to excess
vibration and noise due to poor contact with the floor.
If a drip pan must be used, take extra care to follow the instructions provided with the
drip pan and make sure the leveling feet are adjusted for firm and even contact with the
pan. Use of drip pans and failure to properly level the machine may result in increased
vibration and noise during operation.

Sorfing wash loads
Precaufions for fabric care before fhe wash cycle
Read and observe the following to prevent shrinkage or damage to clothes.
4, Check all pockets to make sure that they are
empty.
- Items such as clips, matches, pens, coins, and keys can damage both your washer and your clothes.
Close zippers, hooks, and drawstrings to
prevent these items from snagging or tangling
on other clothes.
4, Pretreat heavily stained areas before washing.
- Doing so will produce clean, stain-free results.
4, Combine large and small items in a load. Load
large items first.
Large items should not be more than half of
the total wash load.
4, The washer can be fully loaded, but the drum
should not be tightly packed with items.
-The door of the washer should close easily.
Do not wash single items, except for bulky items such as blankets. Make sure to wash
laundry in similar types of loads.
- Washing a single small item may result in the
tub becoming unbalanced, vibrating and
making a noise.
Do not wash waterproof clothes.
- This may cause abnormal vibration, or may cause the load to bounce, which could
damage the tub.
Check if there are any foreign objects in the door seal and take extra care that clothes do
not get caught there.
- Foreign objects in the door seal may stain clothes, and water may leak if clothes get
caught in the door seal.
4, Wash underwear or small, light items in a
laundry net.
- Small, light items may get caught in the door seal, and a brassiere hook may damage other
items or the tub.
_I, Brush heavy soil, dust, or hair off fabrics before
washing.
- Laundry may not wash clean if there is dirt or sand on the fabrics, or items may be
damaged due to particles rubbing against sheer fabrics.
_I,Wash blankets individually.
- Washing more than one blanket together may produce unsatisfactory results due to tangling
or an unbalanced load.
_I,Always separate fabrics according to their
colors and wash them separately to prevent colors from running.
- Fabrics may be damaged or become stained due to fabric dyes running, or due to foreign
objects transferring from one fabric to another.

Most articles of clothing feature fabric care labels that include instructions for proper care.

20 PREPARATION
Using Detergent/Fabric Softener
Recommended Defergenf
Make sure to use HE (High-Efficiency) detergent
for front-loading washing machines. HE detergents dissolve more efficiently and produce
fewer suds to ensure efficient washing and
rinsing. Use the correct amount of detergent as indicated on the detergent packaging.
Specially designed to use only HE (High-Efficiency) detergent
:@ NOTE -,
Only use HE detergents, because using a regular detergent may produce excessive
suds. HE detergents produce fewer suds, dissolve more efficiently to improve washing and
rinsing performance, and help to keep the interior of your washer clean.
Use less detergent for soft water. Wipe up any spills immediately, as liquids
could damage the finish and the control panel of the washing machine.
Using too much detergent can cause a build- up in the tub resulting in unsatisfactory performance and machine malfunction.
If you use a detergent that does not dissolve easily or a detergent with high viscosity, it
will leave a residue on the tub, which may not rinse properly.
Loading the Dispenser
The detergent dispenser drawer of the washing
machine has a dispenser compartment for
each detergent type. Add each detergent to its appropriate compartment.
1 Pull out the detergent dispenser drawer.
2 Add each detergent to its appropriate
compartment.
- If you use a liquid detergent, check if the liquid detergent cup is in place.
- If you use a powdered detergent, remove the liquid detergent cup and put the powder in the main wash detergent compartment.

3 Close the detergent dispenser drawer slowly.
- Slamming the detergent dispenser drawer may result in the detergent overflowing into another compartment or pouring into the tub
earlier than programmed.
@ NOTE .....................................................................................................................................................................
It is normal fora small amount of water to remain in the dispenser compartments at the
\ endofthecyce.
USNG YOUR WASHING MACHINE 21
Add liquid or powdered detergent to this compartment when using the Pre-Wash option.
Always use HE (High-Efficiency) detergent with your washing machine.
,-@ NOTE ......................................................................................................................................................................
When using the pre-wash option, if liquid detergent is to be used for the main wash,
remember to use the liquid detergent cup accessory in the main wash dispenser, to
prevent the main wash liquid detergent from being dispensed with the pre-wash
detergent.
The amount of detergent added for the Pre- Wash option is 1/2 the amount recommended
for the main wash cycle. For example, if the main wash cycle requires one measure of
detergent, add 1/2 measure for the Pre-Wash option.
This compartment holds laundry detergent for the main wash cycle, which is added to the load at
the beginning of the cycle. Always use HE (High-
Efficiency) detergent with your washing machine. Never exceed the manufacturer's
recommendations when adding detergent. Using
too much detergent can result in detergent
buildup on clothing and the washer. Either powdered or liquid detergent may be used.
This compartment holds liquid chlorine bleach, which will be dispensed automatically at the
proper time during the wash cycle.
--@ NOTE
Do not add powdered or liquid color-safe bleach to this compartment.
Always follow the manufacturer's
recommendations when adding bleach. Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Using too
much bleach can damage fabrics. Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly onto the load or into the drum.
Fabric damage can occur.
This compartment holds liquid fabric softener, which will be automatically dispensed during the final rinse cycle.
--@ NOTE
Always follow the manufacturer's
recommendations when adding fabric softener. Do not exceed the maximum fill
line. Using too much fabric softener may result in stained clothes. Dilute concentrated fabric softeners with
warm water. Do not exceed the maximum fill
line.
Never pour fabric softener directly onto the
J
-@ NOTE
Liquid or powdered color-safe bleach may be added to the main wash compartment with detergent of the same type.
When using liquid detergent, make sure the liquid detergent cup and insert are in place. Do not exceed the maximum fill line.
When using powdered detergent, remove
the insert and liquid detergent cup from the
compartment. Powdered detergent will not dispense with the liquid detergent cup and
insert in place.
