Using Non-Skid Pads (Optional)
If you install the washing machine 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 non-skid pads under
the leveling feet and adjust the level.
1
Clean the floor to attach the non-skid pads.
•
Use a dry rag to remove and clean foreign
objects and moisture. If moisture remains, the
non-skid pads may slip.
2
Adjust the level after placing the washing machine
in the installation area.
3
Place the adhesive side of the non-skid pad on the
floor.
•
It is most effective to install the non-skid pads
under the front legs. If it is difficult to place the
pads under the front legs, place them under the
back legs.

4 Ensure the washing machine is level.
• Push or rock the top diagonal edges of the
washing machine firmly to make sure that the
washing machine does not rock. If the washing
machine rocks, level the washing machine again.
Wooden Floors (Suspended
Floors)
•
Wooden floors are particularly susceptible to vibration.
• To reduce vibration we recommend you place rubber
cups at least 15 mm thick under each foot of the
washing machine, secured to at least two floor beams
with screws.
Rubber Cup
•
If possible install the washing machine in one of the
corners of the room, where the floor is more stable.
•
Fit the rubber cups to reduce vibration.
•
You can obtain rubber cups (p/no.4620ER4002B) from
an LG Service Centre.
NOTE
•
Proper placement and leveling of the washing
machine will ensure long, regular, and reliable
operation.
• The washing machine must be 100% horizontal
and stand firmly in position.
•
It must not ‘Seesaw’ across corners under the
load.
•
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.
