Sorting

Check before Loading

* Look for a care label on your clothes. This will tell you about the fabric content of your garment 

and how it should be washed.
Sort clothes into loads that can be washed with the same wash cycle, water temperature and spin speed.

Care Labels

Use nylon nets for long, delicate items. For laundry with long strings or long length , a net
will prevent tangling during washing. Fasten zippers, hook, and strings to make sure that
these items don't snag on other clothes.

Nylon net is not supplied by LG.

Clothes like downs and woollens are light weight, large and float easily.

Use a nylon net and wash them in a small amount of water. If the laundry floats during the wash

cycle, it may become damaged. Use dissolved detergent to prevent the detergent from clumping.

Do not wash fabrics containing flammable materials (waxes, cleaning fluids, etc.).
Load Size
The water level should just cover the clothes. Adjust the load size accordingly.
Loosely load clothes no higher than the top row of holes in the washer tub. To
add items after washer has started, press Start button and submerge additional
items. Close the lid and press Start button again to restart.

• Pretreat shirt collars and cuffs with a pre-wash product or liquid detergent when placing them in the washer. 

Before washing treat special stains with bar soaps, liquid detergent or a paste of water and granular detergent.

• Use a pretreat soil and stain remover.

Treat stains AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. The longer they are left the harder they are to remove. 

Pretreatment on stains or heavy soil

Never place items in the washer that are

dampened with gasoline or other

flammable fluids.

No washer can completely remove oil.

Do not dry anything that has ever had any

type of oil on it (including cooking oils).

Doing so can result in death, explosion, or

fire.
