LG WT5101HW - Manual (Page 12)

To make sure that the washer is properly
level, open the lid and look from above to see
if it is same as shown above. If you have a
level, check your washer with the level.
• To check if the washer is level side to side,
close the lid and place a level at the back of
the lid.
• To check if the washer is level front to back,
place a level at the side of the washer on
the edge where the cabinet side meets the
top cover.
If the washer is not level, adjust the front leveling
feet. Turn clockwise to raise, counterclockwise to
lower.

Firmly insert the free end of the drain hose
into the drain opening of your home. Make sure
the soft rubber end is completely inside the drain
opening.
• If the water valves and drain are built into the
wall, fasten the drain hose to one of the water
hoses with the cable tie (ribbed side on inside).
• If your drain is a standpipe, fasten the drain hose
to the standpipe with the cable tie provided.
NOTE:
• Total height of the hose end should be approxi-
mately 35 ~ 47" (0.9 ~ 1.2 m) from the floor.
• The drain hose should be inserted no more than
8-12 inches into the standpipe.

LEVELING THE WASHER
The washer spins at very high speeds, up to
1,100 RPM.
NOTE: Adjust the leveling feet only as far as
necessary to level the washer. Extending the
leveling feet more than necessary can cause
the washer to vibrate.
• All four leveling feet must rest solidly on the
floor. Rock the washer gently from corner to
corner to make sure that the washer does
not rock.
NOTE: Before installing the washer, make sure
the floor is clean, dry and free of dust, dirt, water
and oils so the washer feet can not slide easily.
Leveling feet that can move or side on the floor
can contribute to excess vibration and noise due
to poor contact with the floor.
