Operation
• Do not use a sharp object like drill or pin to press or separate an
operation unit.
• Keep the area underneath and around the appliance free of
combustible materials such as lint, paper, rags, chemicals, etc.
• Do not put animals, such as pets into the appliance.
• Do not leave the appliance door open. Children may hang on the
door or crawl inside the appliance, causing damage or injury.
• Use new hose or hose-set supplied with the appliance. Reusing old
hoses can cause a water leak and subsequent property damage.
• Turn off water taps to relieve pressure on hoses and valves and
to minimize leakage if a break or rupture should occur. Check the
condition of the fill hoses; they may need replacement after 5 years.
• Never reach into the appliance while it is operating. Wait until the
drum has completely stopped.
• 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 waxes, wax removers, oil, paint, gasoline, degreasers,
drycleaning solvents, kerosene, petrol, spot removers, turpentine,
vegetable oil, cooking oil, acetone, alcohol, etc.). Improper use can
cause fire or explosion.
• In case of flood, disconnect the power plug and contact the LG
Electronics customer information centre.
• Do not use or store flammable or combustible substances (ether,
benzene, alcohol, chemical, LPG, combustible spray, insecticide, air
freshener, cosmetics, etc.) near the appliance.
• If there is a gas leakage (isobutane, propane, natural gas, etc.),
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
thawing.
• Keep all washing detergents, softener and bleach away from children.
• Do not touch the power plug or the appliance controls with wet hands.
• Do not bend the power cable excessively or place a heavy object on
it.
