Important Safety Instructions
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using
your product, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the
following:

Installation
••Make sure the appliance is properly installed, grounded, and adjusted by qualified
service personnel according to the installation instructions.
••Never attempt to operate the appliance if it is damaged, malfunctioning, partially
disassembled, or has missing or broken parts, including a damaged cord or plug. It
can cause electric shock or injury.
••The appliance is heavy. Two or more people may be needed to install and move
the appliance. Failure to do so can result in injury.
••Store and install the appliance where it will not be exposed to temperatures below
freezing or exposed to outdoor weather conditions. Failure to do so can result in
leakage.
••Tighten the drain hose to avoid separation. Splashing of water may cause electric
shock.
••If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its
service agents or similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
••The appliance must not be installed behind a lockable door, a sliding door or a
door with a hinge on the opposite side to that of the appliance, in such a way that
a full opening of the appliance door is restricted.

Operation
••Do not use a sharp object like drill or pin to press or separate an operation unit. It
can cause the electric shock or injury.
••Only an authorized repair person from LG Electronics service centre should
disassemble, repair, or modify the appliance. Improper service may cause injury,
electric shock or fire.
••Do not spray the water inside or outside the appliance to clean it. Water can
damage the insulation, causing electric shock or fire.
••Keep the area underneath and around the appliance free of combustible materials
such as lint, paper, rags, chemicals, etc. Improper use can cause fire or explosion.
••Do not put living animals, such as pets into the appliance. It may cause injury.
••Do not leave the appliance door open. Children may hang on the door or crawl
inside the appliance, causing damage or injury.

04
••Never reach into the appliance while it is operating. Wait until the drum has
completely stopped. Failure to do so may result in injury.
••Do not put in, wash or dry articles that have been cleaned in, washed in, soaked
in, or spotted with combustible or explosive substances (such as wax, oil, paint,
gasoline, degreasers, drycleaning solvents, kerosene, vegetable oil, cooking oil,
etc.). Improper use can cause fire or explosion.
••In case of flood, stop using the appliance and contact the LG Electronics service
centre. Contact with water can cause electric shock.
••Do not push down the door excessively, when the appliance door is open. Doing
so may topple over the appliance and it can cause the injury.
••Use new hose-sets supplied with the appliance. Old hose-sets should not be
reused. Water leakage may cause property damage.
••Do not touch the door during steam cycles or drying. The door surface can become
very hot. Failure to do so may result in injury.
••Do not use inflammable gas and combustible substances (benzene, gasoline,
thinner, petroleum, alcohol, etc.) around the appliance. It may cause explosion or
fire.
••If the drain hose or inlet hose is frozen during winter, use it only after thawing.
Freezing may cause fire or electric shock, and frozen parts may cause product
malfunction or reduction in product life span.
••Keep all washing detergents, softener and bleach away from children. These
products contain poisonous materials.
••Do not plug multiple products into multiple socket-outlets or extension cords. This
can cause fire.
••Remove the power plug when you clean the appliance. Not removing the plug may
result in electric shock or injury.
••Do not touch the power plug with wet hands. It can cause the electric shock or
injury.
••When pulling out the power plug from an outlet, hold the power plug, not the cable.
Damage of the cable can cause the electric shock or injury.
••Do not bend the power cable excessively or place a heavy object on top of it.
Damage of the power cable can cause electric shock or fire.
••Do not drink the condensed water. Failure to do so may result in food-borne
illnesses.
••The lint trap has to be cleaned frequently.
••Lint must not to be allowed to accumulate around the appliance.

Technical Safety for Using the Appliance


••Do not dry unwashed items in the appliance.

05
••Items that have been soiled with substances such as cooking oil, vegetable oil,
acetone, alcohol, petrol, kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax
removers should be washed in hot water with an extra amount of detergent before
being dried in the appliance.
••Fabric softeners, or similar products, should be used as specified by the fabric
softener instructions.
••Remove all objects from pockets such as lighters and matches.
••Never stop the appliance before the end of the drying cycle unless all items are
quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.
••The appliance is not to be used if industrial chemicals have been used for
cleaning.
••Items such as foam rubber (latex foam), shower caps, waterproof textiles, rubber
backed articles and clothes or pillows fitted with foam rubber pads should not be
dried in the appliance.

Disposal
••Before discarding an old appliance, unplug it. Render the plug useless. Cut off the
cable directly behind the appliance to prevent misuse.
••Dispose of the packaging material (such as vinyl and styrofoam) away from
children. The packaging material can suffocate a child.
••Remove the door to the appliance before the appliance is removed from service or
discarded to avoid the danger of children or small animals getting trapped inside.
Failure to do so can result in serious injury to persons or death.

Grounding Requirements
••For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the
risk of fire, explosion, or electric shock, or to prevent property damage, injury to
persons, or death.
••The appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown,
grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least
resistance for electric current.
••The appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor
and grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is
properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
••Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of
electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in
doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
••Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance. If it does not fit the outlet, have
a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
