• Certain internal parts are intentionally not
grounded and may present a risk of electric
shock only during servicing. Service personnel-
Do not contact the following parts while the
appliance is energized: pump, valve, motor,
control board.
• The pedestal washer is for installation and use
only underneath an LG front-loading washer
manufactured after 2009. A special kit is also
available to allow use under an LG top-load-
matching dryer manufactured in 2016 or later.
Do not use the pedestal washer as a standalone
unit, under an LG top-loading washer, or under
any other washer or dryer.
NOTE
• The pedestal washer's width must match the
stacked LG appliance's width.
• The pedestal washer will not work as a
standalone unit.
• The pedestal washer must be stacked under an
LG brand appliance in order to operate properly.
Choosing the Proper
Location
Check the following requirements for the install
location before installing the washer.
• Allow for sufficient space between the walls and
the washer for installation.
• Make sure that the floor is clean, dry and free of
dust, dirt, water and oil so the leveling feet
cannot slide easily. Leveling feet that can move
or slide on the floor can contribute to excess
vibration and noise.
