Installation
••Never attempt to operate the appliance if it is damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled, or has missing or broken parts, including a damaged cord or plug.
••This appliance should only be transported by two or more people holding the appliance securely.
••Tighten the drain hose to avoid separation.
••If the power cord is damaged or the hole of the socket outlet is loose, do not use the power cord and contact an authorized service centre.
••Make sure the plug is completely pushed into the outlet.
••Do not install the appliance in a damp and dusty place. Do not install or store the appliance in any outdoor area, or any area that is subject to weathering conditions such as direct sunlight, wind, rain, or temperatures below freezing.
••Ventilation openings must not be obstructed by a carpet.
••Do not plug the appliance into multiple socket outlets or extension power cable.
••This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current.
••This appliance is equipped with a power cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding power plug. The power plug must be plugged into an appropriate socket outlet that is installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
5
EN
••Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
••Do not modify the power cord provided with the appliance.
Operation
••Do not use a sharp object like drill or pin to press or separate an operation unit.
••Keep the area underneath and around the appliance free of combustible materials such as lint, paper, rags, chemicals, etc.
••Do not put animals, such as pets into the appliance.
••Do not leave the appliance door open. Children may hang on the door or crawl inside the appliance, causing damage or injury.
••Use new hose or hose-set supplied with the appliance. Reusing old hoses can cause a water leak and subsequent property damage.
••Turn off water taps 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.
••Never reach into the appliance while it is operating. Wait until the drum has completely stopped.
••Do not put in, wash or dry articles that have been cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with combustible or explosive substances (such as waxes, wax removers, oil, paint, gasoline, degreasers, drycleaning solvents, kerosene, petrol, spot removers, turpentine, vegetable oil, cooking oil, acetone, alcohol, etc.). Improper use can cause fire or explosion.
6
EN
••In case of flood, disconnect the power plug and contact the LG Electronics customer information centre.
••Do not use or store flammable or combustible substances (ether, benzene, alcohol, chemical, LPG, combustible spray, insecticide, air freshener, cosmetics, etc.) near the appliance.
••If there is a gas leakage (isobutane, propane, natural gas, etc.), do not touch the appliance or power plug and ventilate the area immediately.
••If the drain hose or inlet hose is frozen during winter, use it only after thawing.
••Keep all washing detergents, softener and bleach away from children.
••Do not touch the power plug or the appliance controls with wet hands.
••Do not bend the power cable excessively or place a heavy object on it.
••Do not put your hand, foot or anything under the washing machine while the washing machine is in operation.
••The hands shall not be inserted into running water-extracting drum.
••Make sure that drainage is working properly. If water is not drained properly, your floor may get flooded.
••If, during spinning, opening the door does not stop the drum within about 15 seconds, immediately discontinue operating the appliance and contact your dealer or LG Electronics service centre.
7
EN
••Do not use a plug socket and wiring equipment for more than their rated capacity.
••When the air temperature is high and the water temperature is low, condensation may occur and thus wet the floor.
••Wipe off dirt or dust on the contacts of the power plug.
••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 taps 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.
Maintenance
••Remove the power plug when you clean the appliance.
••Securely plug the power plug in the socket outlet after completely removing any moisture and dust.
••Do not spray water inside or outside the appliance to clean it.
••Never unplug the appliance by pulling on the power cable. Always grip the power plug firmly and pull straight out from the socket outlet.
••Only qualified service personnel from LG Electronics service centre should disassemble, repair, or modify the appliance. Contact an LG Electronics customer information centre if you move and install the appliance in a different location.
8
EN

Using the Appliance |
4 |
||
Before the first wash, select a washing |
|
||
programme (Normal, add a half load of |
|
||
detergent), allow the washing machine to wash |
|
||
without clothing. This will remove residue and |
|
||
water from the drum that may have been left |
|
||
during manufacturing. |
|
||
1 Sort laundry and load items. |
|
||
••Sort laundry by fabric type, soil level, |
|
||
colour and load size as needed. Open the |
5 |
||
door and load items into the washing |
|||
machine. |
|
||
|
|
|
|
EN

••Press the Program button repeatedly until the desired programme is selected.
Begin programme.
••Press the START/PAUSE button to begin the programme. The washing machine will agitate briefly without water to measure the weight of the load. If the START/ PAUSE button is not pressed within 60 minutes, the washing machine will shut off and all settings will be lost.
2 |
Add cleaning products and/or detergent and |
|
softener. |
|
••Add the proper amount of detergent to the |
detergent dispenser drawer. If desired, add bleach or fabric softener to the appropriate areas of the dispenser.
3 Turn on the washing machine.
••Press the POWER button to turn on the washing machine.
6 End of programme.
••When the programme is finished, a melody will sound. Immediately remove your clothing from the washing machine to reduce wrinkling.
NOTE
••The Auto Restart function allows the programme to restart by itself in case of power failure. lt resumes from the stage where it stopped.
20
1 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.
••Symbols on the care labels.
[Wash temperature]
[Normal machine wash]
[Permanent press]
[Delicate]
[Hand wash]
[Do not wash]
2 Sorting laundry.
••To get the best results, sort clothes into loads that can be washed with the same wash cycle.
••Different fabrics need to be washed at varying temperatures and spin speeds.
••Always sort dark colours from pale colours and whites. Wash separately as dye and lint transfer can occur causing discolouration of white and pale garments. If possible, do not wash heavily soiled items with lightly soiled ones.
−−Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light) :
Separate clothes according to amount of soil.
−−Colour (White, Lights, Darks): Separate white fabrics from coloured fabrics.
−−Lint (Lint producers, Collectors): Wash lint producers and lint collectors separately.
EN
3 Caring before loading.
••Combine large and small items in a load. Load large items first.
••Large items should not be more than half the total wash load. Do not wash single items. This may cause an unbalanced load. Add one or two similar items.
••Check all pockets to make sure that they are empty. Items such as nails, hair clips, matches, pens, coins and keys can damage both your washing machine and your clothes.
••Close zippers, hooks and strings to make sure that these items don’t snag on other clothes.
••Pre-treat dirt and stains by brushing a small amount of detergent dissolved water onto stains to help lift dirt.
CAUTION
••Do not wash or spin any item labeled or known to be water-proof or water-resistant, even if the product care label on the item permits machine washing. Failure to follow these instructions could result in severe damage to your laundry, your washing machine and/or property damage as a result of abnormal vibration of the washing machine.
−−Examples of water-proof or water-resistant items include certain mattress pads, mattress covers, rain gear, camping gear, skiing apparel, outdoor gear and similar items.
21
Detergent Dosage
••Detergent should be used according to the instruction of the detergent manufacturer and selected according to type, colour, soiling of the fabric and washing temperature.
••If too much detergent is used, too many suds can occur and this will result in poor washing results or cause heavy load to the motor.
••If you wish to use liquid detergent follow the guidelines provided by the detergent manufacturer.
••You can pour liquid detergent directly into the main detergent drawer if you are starting the cycle immediately.
••Do not use liquid detergent if you are using Time delay, or if you have selected Pre Wash, as the liquid may harden.
••If too many suds occur, reduce the detergent amount.
