PRODUCT FEATURES

INVERTER DIRECT-DRIVE MOTOR

The inverter motor, which is directly connected to the drum, produces little noise and vibration and offers great durability and a long lifespan.

SMART DIAGNOSIS™

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 38).

TUB CLEAN

Regular cleaning of the tub on a monthly basis using Tub Clean can help keep the tub clean and fresh.

MAGNETIC DOOR PLUNGER

Safely and conveniently secure the door slightly ajar with the magnetic door plunger. This will promote air circulation and allow the 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.

LARGE CAPACITY STAINLESS STEEL DRUM

The large capacity stainless steel drum offers extreme durability and is tilted to improve efficiency and allow easier access for large items.

CHILD LOCK

Use this option to disable the controls during a wash cycle. This option can prevent children from changing cycles or operating the machine.

DETERGENT DISPENSER DRAWER

The four-compartment dispenser drawer makes it easy to separate the pre-wash detergent, the main laundry detergent, liquid bleach, and fabric softener into different compartments.

HIGH TEMPERATURE STEAM CYCLES

During LG's unique high-temperature steam cycles, the hot steam helps to remove tough stains.

TAG ON

The Tag On feature works on most NFC equipped smart phones by communicating with your Tag On equipped LG appliance. Using the LG ThinQ 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.

obey all safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.

This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word WARNING or CAUTION.

These words mean:

WARNING

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow instructions.

CAUTION

You may be slightly injured or cause damage to the product if you do not follow instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury,

and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using this appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following.

• Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this owner’s Manual.

• Before use, the washer must be properly installed as

described in this manual.

• Do not wash articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances, as they give off vapors that

could ignite or explode.

• Do not add gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances to the wash water. These substances give off vapors that could ignite or explode.

• Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for 2 weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been

used for such a period, before using the washer, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accu- mulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.

• Do not allow children to play on or in the washer. Close supervision of children is necessary when the washer is used near children.

• Before the washer is removed from service or discarded, remove the lid to prevent children from climbing inside.

• Do not install or store the washer where it will be exposed to the weather or freezing temperatures.

• Do not tamper with controls.

• Keep the area underneath and around your appli- ances free of combustible materials (lint, paper, rags, etc.), gasoline, chemicals and other flammable vapors and liquids.

• Do not repair or replace any part of the washer or

attempt any servicing other than as described in this manual. We strongly recommend that any service

be performed by a qualified technician.

• See Installation Instructions for grounding require-

ments.

• ALWAYS follow the fabric care instructions supplied by the garment manufacturer.

• Do not place items exposed to cooking oil in your washer. Items contaminated with cooking oils may

contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch fire.

• Use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static

only as recommended by the manufacturer.

• This washer is not designed for maritime use or for mobile installations such as in RVs, aircraft, etc.

• Turn off the water faucets and unplug the washer if

the machine is to be left for an extended period of time, such as during vacations.

• Do not use to dry articles containing foam rubber or similarly textured rubber-like materials.

• Packaging material can be dangerous for children. There is a risk of suffocation! Keep all packaging

from children.

• Always check the inside of the washer for foreign objects before loading laundry. Keep the lid closed when not in use.

• Do not reach into the appliance if the tub or agitator is moving.

INSTALLATION

Choosing the Proper Location

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.

Two or more people are needed for moving and

unpacking the washing machine.

Allow for sufficient space between the walls and

the washing machine for installation.

Space Requirements

You must allow sufficient space for water lines, the drain line, and airflow.

NOTE

yBe sure to allow for wall, door, or floor moldings

that may increase the required clearances.

NOTE

yThe 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.

yBefore installing the washer, make sure the

floor is clean, dry and free of dust, dirt, water and oils 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.

yIf 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.

PREPARATION

Sorting Wash Loads

Read and observe the following to prevent shrinkage or damage to clothes.

u Check all pockets to make sure that they are

empty.

- Items such as clips, matches, pens, coins, and keys can damage both the washer and your clothes.

u Close zippers, hooks, and drawstrings to prevent

these items from snagging or tangling on other clothes.

u Pretreat heavily stained areas before washing.

- Doing so will produce clean, stain-free results.

u Combine large and small items in a load. Load

large items first.

u Large items should not be more than half of the

total washload.

u The washer can be fully loaded, but the drum

should not be tightly packed with items.

-The door of the washer should close easily.

u 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.

u Do not wash waterproof clothes.

- This may cause abnormal vibration, or may cause the load to bounce, which could damage the tub.

u Check if there are any other 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.

u 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.

u 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 particles may rub against and damage sheer fabrics.

u Wash blankets individually.

- Washing more than one blanket together may produce unsatisfactory results due to tangling or an unbalanced load.

u Always separate fabrics according to their colors

and wash them separately to prevent colors from running.

- Fabrics may damage or become stained due to fabric dyes running, or due to foreign objects transferring from one fabric to another.

u For best performance, load clothes as shown.

- Load clothes loosely, and do not overfill the

drum. Clothes need room to circulate in order to get clean.

- Do not press down on items while stacking

them in the drum.

ENGLISH

PREPARATION

Using Detergent/Fabric Softener

Recommended Detergent

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 label of the detergent packaging.

Designed specially to use only HE (High-Efficiency) detergent

NOTE

yOnly use HE detergents, because using a

regular detergent may produce excessive suds.

yHE detergents produce fewer suds, dissolve

more efficiently to improve washing and rinsing performance, and help to keep the interior of

the washer clean. yUse less detergent for soft water. yWipe up any spills immediately, as liquids could

damage the finish and the control panel of the

washing machine. yUsing too much detergent can cause a build-

up in the tub resulting in unsatisfactory

performance and machine malfunction. yIf 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.

Pull out the detergent dispenser drawer.

Add the appropriate 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.

Liquid chlorine bleach compartment

Liquid fabric

Liquid detergent cup

softener compartment

Main wash detergent compartment

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.

Pre-wash detergent compartment

NOTE

yIt is normal for a small amount of water to

remain in the dispenser compartments at the end of the cycle.

PREPARATION

Pre-wash Detergent Compartment

Add liquid or powdered detergent to this compartment when using the pre-wash option. Always use HE (High-Efficiency) detergent with the washing machine.

NOTE

yIf liquid detergent is to be used for the main

wash when using the pre-wash option, the liquid detergent cup accessory must be used in main wash dispenser to prevent the main wash liquid detergent from being dispensed immediately.

yThe 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.

Main Wash Detergent Compartment

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 (HighEfficiency) detergent with your washing machine. Never exceed the manufacturer’s recommendations when adding detergent. Using too much detergent can result in detergent buildup in clothing and the washer. Either powdered or liquid detergent may be used.

NOTE

yLiquid or powdered color-safe bleach may be

added to the main wash compartment with detergent of the same type.

yWhen using liquid detergent, make sure the

liquid detergent cup is in place. Do not exceed the maximum fill line.

yWhen using powdered detergent, remove the

liquid detergent cup from the compartment. Powdered detergent will not dispense with the liquid detergent cup in place.

Liquid Bleach Compartment

This compartment holds liquid chlorine bleach, which will be dispensed automatically at the proper time during the wash cycle.

NOTE

yDo not add powdered or liquid color-safe bleach

to this compartment.

yAlways follow the manufacturer’s

recommendations when adding bleach. Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Using too much bleach can damage fabrics.

yNever pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach

directly onto the load or into the drum. Fabric damage can occur.

Fabric Softener Compartment

This compartment holds liquid fabric softener, which will be automatically dispensed during the final rinse cycle.

NOTE

yAlways 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.

yDilute concentrated fabric softeners with warm

water. Do not exceed the maximum fill line.

yNever pour fabric softener directly onto the load

or into the drum.
