Choosing the Proper
Location
Install the washer on a solid oor that is strong and
rigid enough to support the weight of the washer,
even when fully loaded, without exing or bouncing.
If the oor has too much ex, you may need to
reinforce it to make it more rigid. If the oor is not
solid, it may cause severe vibration and noise.
NOTE
• Before installing the washer, make sure the oor
is clean, dry and free of dust, dirt, water and oil so
the washer feet cannot slide easily. Leveling feet
that can move or slide on the oor can contribute to
excess vibration and noise due to poor contact with
the oor.
• Allow for sufcient space between the walls and the
washer for installation.
Power Outlet
• The power outlet must be within 60 inches (1.5 m)
of either side of the washer.
• The appliance and outlet must be positioned so that
the plug is easily accessible.
• Do not overload the outlet with more than one
appliance.
• The outlet must be grounded in accordance with
current electrical wiring codes and regulations.
• Use a time-delay fuse or circuit breaker.
NOTE
• The washer must be installed on rm ooring to
minimize vibration during the spin cycle. Concrete
ooring is best, but a wood oor is sufcient,
provided it is built to FHA standards.

• To minimize noise and vibration, the washer must
be installed on a solidly constructed oor.
• Allowable slope under the entire washer is a
maximum 1 inch difference from side to side or from
front to back.
• Installing on carpeting and soft tile surfaces is not
recommended.
• Never install the washer on a platform or weakly
supported structure.

10 INSTALLATION
Unpacking and Removing
Shipping Material
Unpack all shipping materials from the washer for
proper operation and inspect it for shipping damage.
CAUTION
• Failure to remove shipping materials can cause
excessive noise and vibration.
Lift the washer o the foam base.
1
After removing the carton and shipping material,
lift the washer off the foam base. Make sure the
plastic tub support comes off with the base and is
not stuck to the bottom of the washer.
To prevent damage, do not remove the foam
2
block containing the owner’s manual, parts, and
laundry product samples from the washer tub until
the washer is in the nal location.
NOTE
• Once removed, save the foam block for future use.
If the washer needs to be moved, the foam block
will help prevent damage during transportation.
Unfaen the power cord from the back of the
3
washer.
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.

Connecting the Water Lines
To avoid the risk of costly water damage, purchase
and install new inlet hoses when installing the
washer.
Check the ttings and seals.
1
Inspect the threaded tting on each hose and
make sure there is a rubber seal in place in both
ends of each hose to prevent leaking.

Water hose (to water
inlet on washer)
Connect the water supply hoses.
2
Connect the water supply hoses to the hot and
cold water faucets tightly by hand and then
tighten another 2/3 turn with pliers. Connect the
blue hose to a cold water faucet and the red hose
to a hot water faucet.

to the cold water inlet on the back of the washer.
Tighten the ttings securely. Turn ON both faucets
all the way and check for leaks at both ends of the
hoses.
Hot water inlet
Cold water inlet
WARNING
• Do not overtighten the hoses or cross-thread the
hose ttings. Overtightening or cross-threading
can damage the valves or couplings, resulting in
leaking and property damage.
• Do not reuse old hoses. Use only new hoses
when installing the washer. Old hoses could leak
or burst causing ooding and property damage.
Contact an LG Customer Information Center for
assistance in buying hoses.
ENGLISH
Flush out the inlet hoses.
3
After connecting the inlet hoses to the water
faucets, turn on the water faucets to ush out
foreign substances (dirt, sand or sawdust) in the
water lines. Let water drain into a bucket, and
check the water temperature to make sure you've
connected the hoses to the correct faucets.
NOTE
• Periodically check the hoses for cracks, leaks, and
wear, and replace the hoses every ve years. Do
not stretch the water hoses intentionally, and make
sure that they are not pinched, crushed or kinked by
other objects.
• Water supply pressure must be between 20 psi
and 120 psi (138 – 827 kPa). If the water supply
pressure is more than 120 psi, a pressure reducing
valve must be installed.
• To provide optimum washing performance, the hot
water temperature should be set at 120 – 135 °F
(48 – 57 °C) and the cold at 60 °F (15 °C).
• The washer should never be installed or stored in a
location subject to freezing temperatures. Damage
to the water lines and internal mechanisms of the
washer can result. If the washer was exposed to
freezing temperatures prior to installation, allow it to
stand at room temperature for several hours before
use and check for leaks prior to operation.
• Do not use ood-preventing hoses with auto shutoff
devices. The devices can be tripped during ll and
prevent the machine from lling properly.
12 INSTALLATION
(75 - 244 cm)
Connecting the Drain Hose
Connect the drain hose to either a standpipe or
laundry tub.
NOTE
• The drain hose should always be properly secured.
Failure to properly secure the drain hose can result
in ooding and property damage.
• The drain must be installed in accordance with any
applicable local codes and regulations.
• Make sure that the drain hose is not stretched,
pinched, crushed, or kinked.
• Do not install the drain hose with the end lower than
29.5 inches (75 cm) or higher than 96 inches (244
cm) above the bottom of the washer or more than
60 inches (152 cm) away from the washer.
• Never create an airtight seal between the hose and
the drain with tape or other means. If no air gap
is present, water can be siphoned out of the tub
resulting in poor wash/rinse performance or clothing
damage.
• Normal height of the end of the hose should be
approximately 35 inches (89 cm) to 47 inches (120
cm) from the oor.
If the water valves and drain are built into the wall,
3
fasten the drain hose to one of the water hoses
with the tie strap provided (ribbed side on inside).

CAUTION
• Do not insert the end of the drain hose into the
standpipe more than 8 inches (20 cm). Doing
so can cause siphoning, odors, or improper
draining.
NOTE
• If the drain is large enough for the ange on the
hose to t inside, then do not insert the ange more
than 1-2 inches into the drain.
Option 1: Standpipe
Insert the end of the drain hose into the
1
standpipe.
Use the provided tie strap to secure the drain
2
hose in place.
Option 2: Laundry Tub
Hang the end of the drain hose over the side of
1
the laundry tub.
Use the provided tie strap to secure the drain
2
hose in place.
13INSTALLATION
Leveling the Washer
The tub of the washer spins at very high speeds. To
minimize vibration, noise, and unwanted movement,
the oor must be a level, solid surface.
NOTE
• Adjust the leveling feet only as far as necessary to
level the washer. Extending the leveling feet more
than necessary can cause the washer to vibrate.
• Before installing the washer, make sure that the
oor is clean, dry and free of dust, dirt, water and
oil so the washer feet cannot slide easily. Feet
that move or slide on the oor can contribute to
excessive vibration and noise due to poor contact
with the oor.
Position the washer in its nal location.
1
Take special care not to pinch, strain, or crush the
water and drain lines. If you have a carpenter’s
level, you can use it to check that the washer
level. The slope beneath the washer should not
exceed 1 inch, and all four leveling feet must rest
rmly on the oor.
Level
NOTE
• To check if the washer is level from side to side,
place a level on the back edge of the lid (door).
• To check if the washer is level from front to back,
place a level at the side of the washer on the
edge where the cabinet side meets the top cover.
Do not place the level on the top of the lid (door).
Using these surfaces will result in the washer being
unlevel.

Push or rock the top edges of the washer gently
to make sure the washer does not rock. If the
washer rocks, repeat steps 1-3.
CAUTION
• Using the washer without leveling it may cause
excess vibration and noise, leading to a machine
malfunction.
• Extend the leveling feet only to level the washer.
If you extend the leveling feet unnecessarily, it
may cause abnormal vibration of the washer.
NOTE
• If the washer is not level, the lid (door) may not
stay open properly. If this happens, extend the front
leveling legs until the washer is level from front to
back.
