LG Pedestal Washer, Dryer, Combo LWP-277 / WDP4 and LWP-290 / WDP5 Installation Instructions

Before beginning installation, read these instructions carefully. This will simplify installation and ensure that the pedestal is installed correctly and safely. Leave these instructions near the pedestal after installation for future reference


Read and follow these instructions.

NOTICE
The installer must have electrical and mechanical training and acceptable knowledge in the
NOTICE required work.

Safety is foremost---both your own and that of other people. Many important safety instructions are provided in this instruction and your appliance. Always read and observe all safety instructions.


Excessive Weight Hazard
Two or more people may be needed to install and move the appliance and pedestal assembly. Do not allow children to play on the drawer. Do not step on the handle.

NOTE:
A firm, solid floor is even more critical to a front-loading washer than to a top-loader. If your floor is wooden and /or frame construction, you may need to reinforce it. Front-loaders have substantially faster spin speed than top-loaders, causing greater vibration. If the floor is not solid, your washer will vibrate.

NOTE:
If a drip pan must be used
If a drip pan must be used, take extra care to follow the instructions provided with the drip pan and make sure the leveling feet are adjusted for firm and even contact with the pan. Use of drip pans and failure to properly level the machine may result in increased vibration and noise during operation.
