Operation of the LG Direct Drive washing machine 5 and 6 kg, description and instructions for use

Despite the general technological concept of washing machines produced under the same brand, as well as similar features of the series, each modification of the LG automatic washing machine has a unique set of technical parameters. Accordingly, each modification implies specific features of the work, and they are reflected in the description of each item.

LG washing machine

Advantages and disadvantages

The LG Direct Drive 6 kg washing machine operates almost silently during operation. The Korean company's engineers worked painstakingly on a mechanism that will make the drum as quiet as possible.

LG Direct Drive technology allows the unit to operate not only silently, but also efficiently. Each type of fabric has its own principle of cylinder rotation, which is provided by the LG Direct washing machine and comes with a 10-year guarantee from a popular manufacturer.

Engineers also equipped the LG Direct Drive 6 kg with useful functions. For the average user, the “extra rinse” function is especially noteworthy. Lji Direct can additionally rinse things, ridding them of excess particles of powder.

I’m also pleased with the presence of “self-cleaning” functions. When this mode is initialized, the washing machine cleans the drum and its internal components from solid particles such as sand and dirt, and also destroys all microbes and removes odors. The company recommends running this function once every eleven days.

It is also worth noting the following main advantages of the washing machine:

• High spin efficiency with low energy consumption (Class C and A+, respectively).
• The weight of the laundry placed in the machine, as well as the washing time, can be determined independently (if the “cotton” or “mixed fabrics” mode is selected).
• Convenient controls. In addition to the traditional scroll wheel, which allows you to select modes, LG Direct has an extremely simple control panel that allows you to set additional modes, view the time and set child protection.

The main advantages of the Lji washing machine do not end there. The engineers did a good job on the vibration level. The device is protected from them, but if vibrations still occur, this is due to the incorrect position of the device. The washing time, depending on the selected mode, is determined by the user or the system.

How to set delayed start?

You can postpone the selected operation for a period from 3 to 19 hours. The machine will turn on at the time set by the user. To use the timer, proceed as follows:

1. Connect the device to the network.
2. Select the timer mode (the button with a dial designation).
3. Set the required time. One press – delay for 3 hours, two presses – for 6 hours, etc.
4. Start the timer by pressing the “Pause” button.

If the device is not equipped with a screen, then you need to find a button with a clock image. Further actions are no different.

Key features and specifications of LG Direct Drive

The functions of the Lji washing machine are useful in everyday life.

The most notable of them:

• LG Direct Drive technology, which provides device power with A+ energy saving class.
• Intelligent weighing of laundry and setting the washing time.

The operating instructions for the LG washing machine allow you to see a table of the dependence of time on the weight of loaded items (up to 7 kg), as well as the features of other washing modes.

The LG Direct Drive 6 kg model F1048ND has a large number of installed modes and a convenient control panel. All Lji washing machines come with instructions that explain the meaning of the fault codes displayed by a special indicator.

Preparing for washing in an LG washing machine

Before you start washing, you need to complete several preparatory steps. They include:

1. Sorting laundry . You need to separate it by fabric type and color. You should not load white and colored items at the same time, especially if you are washing at a high temperature.
2. Loading the drum . Each model indicates the maximum weight of items that can be washed in one cycle. These values ​​range from 4 to 17 kg. Be sure to take into account the permissible weight for each specific program.
3. Checking pockets . They need to be turned inside out and any small debris shaken out. Coins, keys and other metal parts often cause damage to the device, which requires expensive repairs.
4. Preparing things . If clothing has buttons or zippers, they must be fastened. The products are turned inside out.

Rules of care

LG Direct Drive technology allows the drum to operate according to a specific algorithm for each washing mode, so the LG washing machine does not require particularly careful maintenance.

The LG Inventer Direct Drive washing machine, however, can sometimes malfunction, so the instructions for the LG washing machine will help the user. It describes all the problems that may arise, as well as how to solve them.

LG Intellowasher washing machine 5 kg must clean its drum from dust and dirt before the first wash. The manufacturer recommends that you first run the rinse mode idle (without throwing clothes into the machine) in order to wash away the solid particles in the drum and check the operation of the machine.

The LG Inventer Direct Drive 5 kg washing machine may not function correctly due to problems with the seal. To avoid this, the seal must be cleaned once a month.

In general, caring for LG Direct Drive is not difficult; you just need to follow the recommendations prescribed by the manufacturer. If it gets lost during use, the instructions for the LG washing machine are available on the company’s website.

Main faults and their interpretation

LG Direct Drive may not function properly from time to time. One of the most common problems with the LG Direct Drive 5 kg washing machine is that the door does not open after washing.

Sometimes this leads to the display of error code OE (water drain does not function). In this case, you need to clean the filter located under the front removable cover at the bottom of the machine.

Lji washing machine 6 kg instructions, however, do not describe another type of malfunction. The washer may leave the door locked even after washing. To correct this, lightly tap the drum with your palm.

Some other malfunctions of the machine CL (notifies that the child lock is turned on, can be turned off by holding two keys for 3-4 seconds), IE (water does not flow into the washing machine, open the water supply tap or clean the clogged mesh of the inlet hose).

Control Panel

The LG washing machine manual describes the control panel in detail. The instructions for using the LG 5 kg automatic washing machine indicate that the scroll wheel is used to select washing modes, and the buttons next to the digital display are for fine-tuning them.

The LG Direct Drive 6 kg washing machine accepts up to 6 kilograms of laundry. Otherwise, the corresponding fault code will be displayed on the display. The practice of using the LG washing machine instructions says that the user does not know about many useful programs, for example, cold wash 60 with 1000 rpm. It is also activated by selecting the appropriate mode using the scroll wheel.

Installation options for various conditions

Before installation, you need to think about the conditions and mode in which the machine will operate. Based on this, measures are taken to eliminate operational problems in the future.

Installing a machine in a private house

The layout of electrical cables and pipe routing must be thought out at the construction or renovation stage.

If the washing machine is located in the basement, its connection will be 1.20-1.50 meters below the sewer level. The problem is solved by installing conventional pumping equipment

The dry basement of a private house is the best place to install washing and drying equipment. In this case, the residents of the house do not feel noise, odors and dampness.

Installation of appliances in the kitchen and hallway

Washing does not go well with cooking and eating food. However, very often the machine is installed in the kitchen, as its design fits perfectly into the interior.

In the kitchen, the machine can be placed at any point. The most convenient option is to install it under a countertop or in a cabinet, where it can be hidden behind the doors.

When installing in a corridor or hallway, it is better to place the machine near the wall behind which the bathroom is located. This will simplify connecting the unit to the water supply and sewerage system

You can rarely see her in the corridor. It is difficult to find a place for such an installation and you will have to resolve issues regarding laying communications into the floor or walls. You will also need to hide the machine behind a curtain, place it in a built-in closet or under a countertop.

Placement on laminate or wood floors

The ideal surface for a washing machine is hard and rigid concrete. A wooden floor increases vibrations, which have a destructive effect on surrounding objects and the unit itself.

Anti-vibration mats are made from various materials, they vary in structure, but serve one purpose - to protect the unit from vibrations and prevent its breakdown

The floor can be strengthened in several ways:

• concreting a small foundation;
• arrangement of a durable podium on steel pipes;
• using an anti-vibration mat.

The listed methods will help reduce unpleasant vibrations, but they cannot be compared with concrete screed.

Features of installing a built-in machine

The built-in model is an ideal option that will fit into any interior. Hoses and wires are hidden behind the cabinet, and its front door is identical to the unit.

Built-in machines only provide a front loading option. In this case, it is necessary not only to install the machine, but also to provide space for opening the hatch

This type of equipment is more expensive than conventional equipment, so many are interested in whether and how it is possible to install or build the machine into a cabinet.

The problem to be solved is accomplished in several ways:

• by installing under the countertop;
• placing a compact model in a ready-made cabinet;
• installation in a specially made cabinet, with or without a door.

To prevent adjacent cabinets from experiencing vibration, the base must be solid.

Installing the machine above the toilet

For owners of small toilets, the idea of ​​installing a machine above the toilet may seem strange. But there are enthusiasts who can solve even such a difficult problem.

The design for installing the washing machine should be as thoughtful and reliable as possible. European manufacturers produce powerful fasteners, but their cost is very high

When planning installation, pay attention to the following points:

1. If the quality of the walls is in doubt, a steel structure resting on the floor is made.
2. The hanging shelf is made from a durable metal profile.
3. The shelf is equipped with a safety side so that the machine does not slide off it due to vibration.
4. The retractable shelf will prevent laundry removed from the machine from falling into the toilet.
5. The mounting height is such that the toilet flush pit remains within the access area.
6. It is more convenient to place the machine not above the toilet, but behind it.
7. It is more advisable to choose a model with shallow depth.

In order for the unit to remain suspended and not fall on its head at the most inopportune moment, it is necessary to adhere to safety precautions.

Remember that if repairs are needed, the heavy machine will have to be lowered to the floor and then returned to its place.
