prevent tangling during washing.
Fasten zippers, hook, and strings to make sure that these items don't
snag on other clothes.
※Nylon net is not supplied by LG.
Light and Large-sized clothing
lothes like downs and woollens are light weight, large and float easily. Use a nylon net and
wash them in a small amount of water. If the laundry floats during the wash cycle, it may
become damaged. Use dissolved Detergent to prevent the Detergent from clumping.
Do not wash fabrics containing flammable materials (waxes, cleaning fluids, etc.).

• The temperature of the water impacts the effectiveness of all laundry additives and therefore, the cleaning results.
We recommend temperatures of:
- HOT 49~60° …(120-140˚F) White items, diapers, underclothing and heavily soiled, colorfast items.
- WARM 29~40° …(85-105˚F) Most items
- OLD* 18~24° …(65-75˚F) Only very bright colors with light soil.
• When washing in OLD water additional steps may be needed:
- Adjust Detergent amount and pre-dissolve Detergent in WARM water
- Pretreat spots and stains
- Soak heavily soiled items
- Use appropriate bleach
* Temperature below 18° …(65˚F) will not activate laundry additives and may cause lint, residue, poor cleaning, etc.
In addition, Detergent manufactures and care labels define OLD water as 26~29° …(80-85˚F).
If the temperature of the water in the tub is too cold for your hands, the Detergent will not activate and clean effectively.
Water Temperature
Using Water
• The machine sets the appropriate temperature automatically according to the wash program .
• This machine detects the quantity of laundry automatically, then sets the
WATER LEVEL and proper amount of Detergent.
• When you select a wash program, the WATER LEVEL will be shown on the
control panel.
• The following table shows the amount of water.
• When the WATER LEVEL is automatically detected, it may differ depending
on the quantity of laundry even though the same WATER LEVEL is indicated
on the control panel.
Amount of WATER LEVEL
Using the Dispenser Drawer
OTE
If iron is present in the water the clothes may become an all-over yellow or they may be stained with brown or orange
spots or streaks. Iron is not always visible. Installation of water softener or an iron filter may be necessary for severe cases.
OTE
[ Minimum water amount ]
It depends on laundry load and washer model. Or manually you can pour a certain amount water into tub
directly to some height. That’s because if water level reaches to the some height sensed by washer itself, washer
automatically operates. In other words, it is needed to pour water to the point when washer starts operating.
The dispenser drawer contains 2 compartments:
• Liquid Fabric Softener
• Liquid or Powder Low-Sudsing, High-Efficiency Detergent
The dispenser automatically dispenses additives at the proper time in the wash cycle.
1. Slowly open the dispenser drawer by pulling the drawer out until it stops.
2. After adding laundry products, slowly close the dispenser drawer. losing the
drawer too quickly could result in early dispensing of additives.
• Avoid overfilling or splashing when adding laundry products to the dispenser. Doing
so could result in early dispensing of laundry products.
At the end of the cycle, you may see water in the compartments. This is part of the
normal operation of the washer.
NOTE : Do not use bleach in the dispenser drawer.

Using Detergent
How much Detergent
The correct amount of Detergent will vary depending on the amount of soil in your clothes (Jeans and work
cloches may need more Detergent, while bath towels usually need less.).
For liquid and concentrated Detergents, follow the recommendations of the Detergent manufacturer.
Note: To check you are using the correct amount of Detergent, lift the lid of your machine a out
half-way through the wash. There should e a thin layer of foam over the surface of the water. Lots of
foam may look good, ut it does not contri ute to cleaning your clothes. No foam means not enough
Detergent has een used; soil and lint can settle ack on the clothes or the washing machine.
If excess Detergent is used, the rinse will not e as clean and efficient. Also, it could cause environ-
mental pollution, so use it accordingly.
Add measured detergent to the detergent compartment of the dispenser drawer.
Detergent is flushed through the dispenser at the beginning of the wash phase.
Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for water temperature, water hardness, size and soil level of the load.
Avoid using too much detergent in your washer, as it can lead to oversudsing and detergent residue being left on
the clothes.
A ing Detergent
Using Detergent
Detergent
Follow the Detergent package directions. Using too little Detergent is a common cause of laundry problems.
Use more Detergent if you have hard water, large loads, greasy or oily soils or lower Water Temperature.
Choosing the right Detergent
We recommend the use of domestic Detergent, (powder, liquid or concentrated). Soap flakes or granulated
soap powders should not be used in your washing machine. When washing woolens remember to use Deter-
gent suitable for washing woolens.
Attention
Using liquid detergent without diluting, or leaving laundry for a long time after pouring
diluted liquid detergent into the tub might cause damage, bleaching or discoloration of cloth.
Note : Using Liquid detergent
- Dilute Liquid detergent with water and pour into the tub, start the cycle.
- Delay wash course is not available if you use liquid detergent.

If you wish to use fabric softener we recommen
Attention
■Do not mix with Detergent or bleach.
■Never pour fabric softener directly on clothes. It may stain them.
■Do not stop the washer during the first spin for timely dispensing.
■Option washing is not designed to be used with fabric softener dispenser.
If desired, pour the recommended amount of liquid
fabric softener into the right-hand compartment.
Use only liquid fabric softener.
Dilute with water to the maximum fill line.
• Do not exceed the maximum fill line.

Scrud(Waxy Build up)
Scrud is the name given to the waxy build-up that can occur within any washer when the fabric softener comes into
contact with Detergent. This build-up is not brought about by a fault in the machine.
If scrud is allowed to uild-up in the machine it can result in stains on your clothes or an unpleasant smell in
your washer.
• Using fabric softener sparingly.
• When filling the dispenser, do not splash or overfill.
• lean dispenser as soon as the cycle is finished.
• lean your machine regularly. (refer to page 21 or 32)
• old water washing increases the chance of this build-up occurring. We recommend a regular WARM or HOT wash
e.g. every 5th wash should be at least a warm one.
• Fabric softener of thinner consistency is less likely to leave residue on the dispenser and contribute to a build-up.
AVAILABLE BLEACH TYPE
• Separate the laundry to be bleached.
• Measure powdered bleach carefully, following instructions on the box.
• Before starting the washer, pour measured amount of bleach following instructions on the box.
DEPOSITING BLEACH
Attention
■Never pour undiluted liquid bleach directly onto clothes or into the wash basket.
