Installation Location

This appliance must be installed on firm flooring to minimize vibration during the spin cycle. Concrete flooring is best, being far less prone to vibration during the spin cycle than wooden floorboards or a carpeted surface.If it is impossible to avoid positioning the appliance next to a gas cooker or coal burning stove, an insulation (850 X 600 mm) covered with aluminum foil on the side facing the cooker or stove must be inserted between the two appliances.Ensure that when the appliance is installed, it is easily accessible for an engineer in the event of a breakdown.When installing the appliance, adjust all four feet using the transit bolt spanner provided to ensure the appliance is stable.Ensure that there is enough room for full opening of the appliance door.To ensure sufficient clearance for water inlet hoses, drain hose and airflow, allow minimum clearances of at least 20 mm at the sides and 100 mm behind the appliance. Be sure to allow for wall, door, or floor moldings that may increase the required clearances.IndexClearance (mm)A100B5C20This appliance must only be used for domestic household purposes and should not be used in mobile applications.

Wooden Floors (Suspended Floors)

When installing the appliance on wooden floors, use rubber cups to reduce excessive vibration and unbalance. Timber or suspended type flooring may contribute to excessive vibration and unbalance, errors and malfunction.To reduce vibration, we recommend placing at least 15 mm thickness of rubber cups a under each adjusting foot of the appliance, secured to at least two floor beams with screws.If possible, install the appliance in one of the corners of the room, where the floor is more stable.Fit the rubber cups to reduce vibration.If the appliance is installed on the unstable floor (e.g. wooden floor), the warranty does not cover any damages and cost occurred due to the installation on the unstable floor.You can purchase rubber cups (part No. 4620ER4002B) from the LG service centre.
