Using Anti-Slip Sheets
(Optional)
If you install the appliance on a slippery surface,
it may move because of excessive vibration.
Incorrect leveling may cause malfunction
through noise and vibration. If this occurs, install
the anti-slip sheets under the leveling 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 of the anti-slip
sheets on the floor.
• It is most effective to install the anti-slip
sheets under the front legs. If it is difficult to
place the pads under the front legs, place
them under the back legs.

Ensure the appliance is level.
• Push or rock the top edges of the appliance
gently to make sure that the appliance
does not rock. If the appliance rocks, level
the appliance again.
NOTE
• You can obtain anti-slip sheets from an LG
Centre or Hardware store.
Wooden Floors (Suspended
Floors)
•
Wooden floors are particularly susceptible to
vibration.
• To help prevent vibration we recommend you
place rubber cups at least 15 mm thick under
each foot of the appliance, secured to at least
two floor beams with screws.
Rubber Cup
•
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.
NOTE
•
Proper placement and leveling of the washing
machine will help ensure long, regular, and
reliable operation.
• The washing machine must be 100%
horizontal and stand firmly in position.
•
It must not ‘Seesaw’ diagonally across the
corners or rock in any way when in position.
•
The installation surface must be clean, free
from floor wax and other lubricant coatings.
• Do not let the feet of the washing machine get
wet. Failure to do so may cause vibration or
noise.
•
You can obtain rubber cups (p/
no.4620ER4002B) from an LG Service Centre.

Leveling the Appliance
If the floor is uneven, turn 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 appliance is perfectly level (Use a spirit
level).
• Once the appliance is level, tighten the lock
nuts up towards the base of the appliance. All
lock nuts must be tightened.

Diagonal Check
•
When pushing down the edges of the top plate
diagonally, the appliance should not move up
and down at all (check both directions). If the
appliance rocks when pushing the machine
top plate diagonally, adjust the feet again.
NOTE
•
Timber or suspended type flooring may
contribute to excessive vibration and
unbalance.
Connecting Supply Hose
•
Water supply pressure must be between 0.1
MPa and 0.8 MPa (100 kPa - 800 kPa).
• Do not overtighten the water supply hoses.
• If the water supply pressure is more than 800
kPa, a decompression device or pressure
limiting valve should be installed.
•
Periodically check the condition of the hoses
and replace the hoses if necessary.
Checking the Rubber Seal on the
Supply Hoses
Two rubber seals are supplied with each of the
water inlet hoses. They are used for preventing
water leaks. Make sure the connection to taps is
sufficiently tight. Do not over tighten the hoses
or use any mechanical implements to tighten
them.
