download is completed in the appliance, the
appliance keeps the downloaded cycle until a
new cycle is downloaded.

smartphone so that the NFC antenna inside the
back of the smartphone matches the position of
the Tag On icon on the appliance.
• Press
in the LG ThinQ application for a more
e
detailed guide on how to use the Tag On
function.
• The location of the smartphone's NFC module
may vary depending on the phone, and NFC use
may be restricted on some smartphones due to
differences in transmission methods. Because of
the characteristics of NFC, if the transmission
distance is too far, or if there is a metal sticker or
a protective case on the phone, transmission will
not be good. In some cases, NFC-equipped
phones may be unable to transmit successfully.
• NFC function would vary depending on
smartphones.
