LG ThinQ

is not responsible for any network

connection problems or any faults, malfunctions,
or errors caused by network connection.

• If the appliance is having trouble connecting to

the Wi-Fi network, it may be too far from the
router. Purchase a Wi-Fi repeater (range
extender) to improve the Wi-Fi signal strength.

• The Wi-Fi connection may not connect or may be

interrupted because of the home network
environment.

• The network connection may not work properly

depending on the Internet service provider.

• The surrounding wireless environment can make

the wireless network service run slowly.
