IMPORTANT: Use new hoses when installing

the washer. Do NOT reuse old hoses.

•

IMPORTANT: Use ONLY the inlet hoses

provided by LG with this laundry product.

Aftermarket hoses are not guaranteed to fit or

function correctly. Other hoses may not tighten

correctly and could cause leaks. Subsequent

damage to product or property will not be

covered under the terms of LG's warranty.

• Water supply pressure must be between

14.5 PSI and 116 PSI (100~800 kPa). If the

water supply pressure is more than 116 PSI, a

pressure reducing valve must be installed.

• Periodically check the hose for cracks, leaks,

and wear, and replace the hose if necessary.

• Make sure that the water lines are not stretched,

pinched, crushed, or kinked.

• The washer should never be installed or stored

in a location subject to freezing temperatures.

Damage to the water lines and internal

mechanisms of the washer can result. If the

washer was exposed to freezing temperatures

prior to installation, allow it to stand at room

temperature for several hours before use.

• The drain hose should always be properly

secured. Failure to properly secure the drain

hose can result in flooding and property

damage.

• Do not install the end of the drain hose higher

than 96 in. (244.8 cm) above the bottom of the

washer.

• The drain must be installed in accordance with

any applicable local codes and regulations.
