" Jumbo drumLG’s jumbo drum can wash about 40% more load thanconventional washing machines. A bigger drum improves the washperformance.

" More economical by Intelligent Wash SystemIntelligent Wash System detects the amount of load and watertemperature, and then determines the optimum water level andwashing time to minimize energy and water consumption.

" Child-LockThe Child-Lock system has been used to prevent children frompressing any button to change the program during operation.

" Low noise speed control systemBy sensing the amount of load and balance, it evenly distributesload to minimize the spinning noise level.

" Auto RestartIf the washing machine is turned off by a power failure, it will restartautomatically from the position it stopped at adjusting accordingly.

1. Care LabelsLook for a care label on your clothes. This will tell you about the fabric content of yourgarment and how it should be washed.

2. SortingTo get the best results, Sort clothes into loads that can be washed with the same wash cycle.Water temperature and spin speed and different fabrics need to be washed in different ways.Always sort dark colors from pale colors and whites. Wash separately as dye and linttransfer can occur causing discoloration of white etc. If possible, do not wash heavilysoiled items with lightly soiled one.

Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light) Separate clothes according to amount of soil.Color (White, Lights, Darks) Separate white fabrics from colored fabrics.Lint (Lint producers, Collectors) Wash lint producers and lint collectors

separately.

3. Caring before loading

" Caring before washing

" Combine large and small items in a load. Load large items first. Large items should not be morethan half the total wash load.Do not wash single items. This may cause an out-of-balance load. Add one or two similar items.

• Check all the pockets to make surethat they are empty. Things suchas nails, hair clip, matches, pens,coins and keys can damage bothyour washer and your clothes.

• Close zippers, hook and strings tomake sure that these items don’tsnag on other clothes.

• Pre treat dirt and stains by brushinga little detergent dissolved in wateronto stains like collars and cuffs tohelp shift dirt.

• Do not open the drawer when water issupplied.

• Solvents(benzene, etc) are notallowable.

1. The Dispenser Drawer

• The detergent should be used according to theinstruction of the detergent manufacture.

• If too much detergent is used more than therecommended amount, too many suds canoccur and this will decrease the washing resultor cause heavy load to the motor. (Causing amalfunction)

• Use powder detergent only for the frontloading washer.

• Detergent usage may need to be adjustedfor water temperature, water hardness,size and soil level of the load. For bestresults, avoid oversudsing.

❋ TipsFull load : according tomanufacturer’s recommendation.Part load : 3/4 of the normal amount.Minimum load : 1/2 of full load.

• Detergent is flushed from the dispenser atthe beginning of the cycle.
