SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

ENGLISH

• If there is a gas leakage (isobutane, propane, natural gas, etc.) within

the home, 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

• Do not bend the power cable excessively or place a heavy object on it.

• Avoid touching any water that is drained from the appliance during

the wash.

• Make sure that drainage is working properly. If water is not drained

properly, your floor may get flooded.

• 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.

Maintenance

• Disconnect the appliance from the power supply before cleaning the

appliance. Setting the controls to the OFF or stand by position does

not disconnect this appliance from the power supply.

• Securely plug the power plug in the outlet socket after completely

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Disposal

• Before discarding an old appliance, unplug it. Cut off the cable

directly behind the appliance to prevent misuse.

• Dispose of all packaging materials (such as plastic bags and

styrofoam) away from children. The packaging materials can cause

suffocation.

• Remove the door before disposing of or discarding this appliance to

avoid the danger of children or small animals getting trapped inside.

CARING FOR THE ENVIRONMENT

Environmental and Economical Tips

Energy and water consumption

• Water consumption and energy usage can be affected by the weight

of the load. To make the best use of your appliance, load the

maximum amount of dry clothes for the particular programme.

• The most efficient programmes in terms of energy consumption are

generally those that perform at lower temperatures and longer

duration.

• Noise and remaining moisture content are influenced by the spinning

speed: the higher the spinning speed in the spinning phase, the

higher the noise and the lower the remaining moisture content.

• Evenly loading laundry up to the capacity indicated by the

manufacturer for the respective programmes will contribute to

energy and water savings.

• For washing smaller amounts of clothes, the automatic load

recognition system will help reduce the amount of water and energy

usage.

• Use the Speed programme for small, lightly soiled loads.

• Cold water laundry detergents can be as effective at lower

temperatures (about 20 ℃). Using 20 ℃settings will use less energy

than 30 ℃or higher temperatures.

global_main.book.book Page 8 Wednesday, September 2, 2020 4:40 PM

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

ENGLISH

Detergent

• Detergent should be chosen according to type, colour, soiling of the

fabric and the washing temperature. And it should be used according

to the instruction of the detergent manufacturer. Use only

detergents that are suitable for Drum (front load) type washers.

• Use less detergent on smaller loads.

- Partial load: 1/2 of the normal amount.

- Minimum load: 1/3 of full load.

Selecting Extra Options and Functions

• Select the water temperature suitable for the type of load you are

washing. Follow the garment fabric care labels for best results.

• The Pre Wash option is recommended for washing a heavily soiled

load.

When Using a Dry Programme

• To save energy, choose the highest possible spin speed for the wash

programme when drying in a tumble dryer.

• For most drying, make sure all clothes are similar in material and

thickness.

• When you select drying only, spinning runs automatically for energy

efficiency.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Disposal of Your Old Appliance

• This crossed-out wheeled bin symbol indicates that waste

electrical and electronic products (WEEE) should be

disposed of separately from the municipal waste stream.

• Old electrical products can contain hazardous substances

so correct disposal of your old appliance will help prevent

potential negative consequences for the environment and

human health. Your old appliance may contain reusable

parts that could be used to repair other products, and

other valuable materials that can be recycled to conserve

limited resources.

• You can take your appliance either to the shop where you

purchased the product, or contact your local government

waste office for details of your nearest authorised WEEE

collection point. For the most up to date information for

your country, please see www.lg.com/global/recycling.
