Level adjustment
Concrete floors
Wooden floors (Suspended floors)
1. Adjusting the washing machine level ro erly revents excessive
noise and vibration.
Install the a liance on a solid and level floor surface, referably in a
corner of the room.
2. If the floor is uneven, adjust the adjustable feet as required.
(do not insert pieces of wood etc. under the feet)
Make sure that all four feet are stable and resting on the floor and
then check that the a liance is erfectly level. (use a s irit level)
※※
After the washer is level, tighten the lock nuts up towards of the base of
the washer. All lock nuts must be tightened.
❊ Diagonal Check
When pushing down the edges of the washing machine top plate diagonally, the machine
should not move up and down at all. (Please, check both of two directions)
If machine rocks when pushing the machine top plate diagonally, adjust the feet again.
• The installation surface must be clean, dry and level.
• Install washer on a flat hard floor.
Tile floors (Slippery floors)
• Position each foot on the Tread Mate and level the machine to suit. (Cut Tread Mate into 70x70 mm
sections and stick the pieces on to the dry tile where machine is to be placed.)
※※
Tread Mate is a self adhesive material used on ladders & steps that prevents slipping.
• Wooden floors are particularly susceptible to vibration.
• To prevent vibration we recommend you place rubber cups under each foot,
at least 15mm thick under the washer, secured to at least 2 floor beams with screws.
• If possible install the washer in one of the corners of the room, where the floor is more stable.
※※
Insert the rubber cups to reduce vibration.
※※
You can obtain the rubber cups (p/no.4620ER4002B) from the LG svc dept.
Important!
• Proper placement and levelling of the washer ensure long, regular and reliable operation.
• The washer must be absolutely horizontal and stand firmly in position.
• It must not “Seesaw” across corners under load.
• The installation surface must be clean, free from floor wax and other lubricant coatings.
• Do not let the feet of the washer get wet. If feet of the washer get wet, slipping may occur.
Timber or suspended type flooring may contribute to
excessive vibration and unbalance errors.
In the case that the washing machine is installed on a raised
platform, it must be securely fastened in order
to eliminate the risk that it might fall off.

1. Care Labels
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.
2. Sorting
To get the best results, Sort clothes into loads that can be washed with the same wash cycle.
Water tem erature and s in s eed and different fabrics need to be washed in different ways.
Always sort dark colors from ale colors and whites. Wash se arately as dye and lint transfer can
occur causing discoloration of white etc. If ossible, do not wash heavily soiled items with lightly
soiled one.
Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light) Se arate clothes according to amount of soil.
Color (White, Lights, Darks) Se arate white fabrics from colored fabrics.
Lint (Lint roducers, Collectors) Wash lint roducers and lint collectors
se arately.
3. Caring before loading
Caring before washing
Before the first washing
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 out-of-balance load. Add one or two similar items.
• Check all ockets to make sure that they
are em ty. Items such as nails, hair cli ,
matches, ens, coins and keys can damage
both your washer and your clothes.
• Close zi ers, hooks and strings to
make sure that these items don’t
snag on other clothes.
• Pre treat dirt and stains by brushing a little
detergent dissolved in water onto stains like
collars and cuffs to hel shift dirt.
• Check the folds of the flexible gasket (gray) and
remove any small articles,if any.
• Check inside of the drum and remove any left
items in it for next wash cycle.
• Remove any clothing or items on the flexible
gasket to revent clothing and the gasket
damages.
Select a cycle (COTTON 60°C, add a half load of detergent) allow the unit to wash
without clothing. This will remove residues and water from the drum that may have been left
during manufacturing.
