EN 10 INSTALLATION

Installation Place Requirements

Before installing the appliance, check the following information to make sure that the appliance should be installed in a correct place.

WARNING

This appliance must only be used for domestic household purposes and should not be used in mobile applications.

Installation Location

This appliance must be installed on firm flooring to minimize vibration during the spin cycle. Concrete flooring is best, being far less prone to vibration during the spin cycle than wooden floorboards or a carpeted surface.

If it is impossible to avoid positioning the appliance next to a gas cooker or coal burning stove, an insulation (850 X 600 mm) covered with aluminum foil on the side facing the cooker or stove must be inserted between the two appliances.

Ensure that when the appliance is installed, it is easily accessible for an engineer in the event of a breakdown.

When installing the appliance, adjust all four feet using the transit bolt spanner provided to ensure the appliance is stable.

Floor Installation

To ensure sufficient clearance for water inlet hoses, drain hose and airflow, allow minimum clearances of at least 20 mm at the sides and 100 mm behind the appliance. Be sure to allow for wall, door, or floor moldings that may increase the required clearances.

NOTE

Never try to level any uneven floor by putting pieces of wood, cardboard or similar materials under the appliance.

Wooden Floors (Suspended Floors)

When installing the appliance on wooden floors, use rubber cups to reduce excessive vibration and unbalance. Timber or suspended type flooring may contribute to excessive vibration and unbalance, errors and malfunction.

To reduce vibration, we recommend placing at least 15 mm thickness of rubber caps a under each adjusting foot of the appliance, secured to at least two floor beams with screws.

If possible, install the appliance in one of the corners of the room, where the floor is more stable.

Fit the rubber cups to reduce vibration.

CAUTION

If the appliance is installed on the unstable floor (e.g. wooden floor), the warranty does not cover any damages and cost occurred due to the installation on the unstable floor.

INSTALLATION 11 EN

NOTE

You can purchase rubber cups (part No. 4620ER4002B) from the LG service centre.

Ventilation

Make sure that air circulation around the appliance should not be impeded by carpets, rugs, etc.

Ambient Temperature

Do not install the appliance in rooms where freezing temperatures may occur. Frozen hoses may burst under pressure. The reliability of the electronic control unit may be impaired at temperatures below freezing point.

If the appliance is delivered in winter and temperatures are below freezing, place the appliance at room temperature for a few hours before putting it into operation.

grounded/earthed in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Unpacking the Appliance

Lifting the Appliance Off the Foam Base

* This feature may vary depending on the model purchased.

After removing the carton and shipping material, lift the appliance off the foam base.

*

Make sure the tub support a* comes off with the base and is not stuck to the bottom of the appliance.

If you must lay the appliance down to remove the carton base b, always protect the side of the appliance and lay it carefully on its side. Do not lay the appliance on its front or back.

Removing the Transit Bolts Assemblies

To prevent the appliance from severe vibration and breakage, remove transit bolts and retainers.

EN 12 INSTALLATION

1 Starting with the bottom two transit bolts a, use the spanner (included) to fully loosen all transit bolts by turning them counterclockwise.

2 Remove the bolt assemblies by wiggling them slightly while pulling them out.

3 Install the hole caps.

Locate the hole caps b included in the accessory pack or attached on the back.

NOTE

Save the transit bolts and retainers for future use.

Transport this appliance for the prevention of breakage as below:

-The transit bolts are reinstalled.

-The power cord is secured to the back of the appliance.

If the appliance rocks when pushing the top plate of the appliance diagonally, adjust the feet again.

Check whether the appliance is perfectly level after installation.

NOTE

Timber or suspended type flooring may contribute to excessive vibration and unbalance. Reinforcement or bracing of the timber floor may need to be considered to stop or reduce excessive noise and vibration.

Adjusting and Levelling the Feet

When installing the appliance, the appliance should be aligned and perfectly level. If the appliance is not aligned and level properly, the appliance may be damaged or may not operate properly.

1 Turn the levelling feet as required if the floor is uneven.

Do not insert pieces of wood etc. under the feet.

Make sure that all four feet are stable and resting on the floor.

Levelling the Appliance

Checking the Level

When pushing down the edges of the top plate diagonally, the appliance should not move up and down at all (check both directions).

NOTE

Do not install the washing machine on a plinth, stand or elevated surface unless it is

INSTALLATION 13 EN

manufactured by LG Electronics for use with this model.

2 Check if the appliance is perfectly level using a spirit level a.

3 Secure the levelling feet with the lock nuts b by turning anti-clockwise against the bottom of the appliance.

4 Check if all lock nuts at the bottom of the appliance are secured properly.

Incorrect levelling may cause malfunction through noise and vibration. If this occurs, install the antislip sheets under the levelling feet and adjust the level.

1 Clean the floor to attach the anti-slip sheets.

Use a dry rag to remove and clean foreign objects and moisture. If moisture remains, the anti-slip sheets may slip.

2 Adjust the level after placing the appliance in the installation area.

3 Place the adhesive side aof the anti-slip sheets on the floor.

The most effective way is to install the antislip sheets under the front feet. If it is difficult to place the sheets under the front feet of the appliance, attach them under the rear feet.

NOTE

Proper placement and levelling of the appliance will ensure long, regular, and reliable operation.

The appliance must be 100% horizontal and stand firmly in position on a hard flat floor.

It must not ‘Seesaw’ across corners under the load.

Do not let the feet of the appliance get wet. Failure to do so may cause vibration or noise.

4 Put the appliance on the anti-slip sheets.

Do not attach the adhesive side a of antislip sheets to the feet of the appliance.

NOTE

Additional anti-slip sheets are available at LG Electronics service centre.

Using Anti-Slip Sheets

This feature may vary depending on the model purchased.

EN 14 INSTALLATION

Connecting the Water Supply Hose

Note for Connection

Water pressure must be between 100 kPa and 800 kPa (1.0 – 8.0 kgf/cm²). If the water pressure is more than 800 kPa, a decompression device should be installed.

Periodically check the condition of the water supply hose and replace the water supply hose if necessary.

NOTE

If the water pressure is near or over 800 kPa, a water pressure reduction device should be installed to both taps.

Exceeding 65 °C can damage some clothes.

Temperatures below 4 °C can cause hoses to freeze and burst and unfavourable wash results due to undissolved detergent.

Cold inlet Water Temperatures over 25 °C can cause damage to clothes such as delicate Woollens

Do not overtighten the water supply hose or use mechanical devices to tighten onto the inlet valves.

No further backflow protection required for connection to the water inlet.

Checking the Rubber Seal

Two rubber seals aare supplied with the water supply hose. They are used to prevent water leaks. Connection to taps is sufficiently tight.

Do not use mechanical devices such as multi grips to tighten the water supply hose. Ensure

that the curved end of the water supply hose is connected to the appliance.

Connecting the Hose to the Water Tap

Connecting Screw-Type Hose to Tap with Thread

Screw the supply hose connector onto the water supply tap. Hand tighten only with the aid of a soft cloth. Do not overtighten the supply hose with any mechanical device.

NOTE

After connecting the water inlet hose to the water tap, turn on the water tap to flush out foreign substances (dirt, sand, sawdust, and etc.) in the water lines. Let the water drain into a bucket, and check the water temperature.

LG WV9-1410W Owner’s Manual

INSTALLATION 15 EN

Connecting the Hose to the Appliance

Screw the supply hose to the water inlet valve on the back of the appliance.

Do not connect the hose to the hot water supply for models with one water inlet. Connect to the cold water supply only.

NOTE

After completing connection, if water leaks from the hose, repeat the same steps. Use the most conventional type of tap for the water supply. In case that the tap is square or too big, remove the guide plate before inserting the tap into the adaptor.

Installing the Drain Hose

Installing the Drain Hose with the Elbow Bracket

The drain hose should not be placed higher than 100 cm above the floor. Water in the appliance may not drain or may drain slowly.

Securing the drain hose correctly will protect the floor from damage due to water leakage.
