CONNECTING THE WATER LINES
NOTE:
• For your safety, and for extended product
life, we recommend using high-quality LG
components. LG is not responsible for product
malfunction or damage caused by the use of
separately purchased non-LG parts.
• Use new hoses when installing the washing
machine. Do not reuse old hoses.
• Contact LG Customer Service for assistance in
buying hoses: 1-800-243-0000.
• Periodically check the hoses for cracks,
leaks and wear, and replace the hoses every
fi ve years. Do not stretch the water hoses
intentionally, and make sure that they are not
crushed by other objects.
• Water supply pressure must be between 20
psi and 120 psi (138 – 827 kPA). If the water
supply pressure is more than 120 psi, a pressure
reducing valve must be installed.
• To provide optimum washing performance the
hot water temperature should be set at 120 –
135°F (48-57°C) and the cold at 60°F (15°C).
