ENGLISH Before using the Tag On function
- The Tag On function allows you to conveniently use the LG
Smart Diagnosis™ and Cycle Download features to
communicate with your appliance right from your own smart
phone. To use the Tag On function:
1 Download the LG Smart Laundry&DW App to your smart
phone.
2 Turn on the NFC (Near Field Communication) function in
your smart phone.
The Tag On function can only be used with most smart
phones equipped with the NFC function and based on the
Android operating system (OS).
Turning on the NFC function of the smart phone
1 Enter the "Settings" menu of the
smart phone and select "Share &
Connect" under "WIRELESS &
NETWORKS."
2 Set "NFC“ and “Direct Android
Beam” to ON 
and select “NFC" .
3 Check "Use Read and Write/P2P
receive."
Depending on the smart phone
manufacturer and Android OS
version, the NFC activation
process may differ. Refer to the
manual of your smart phone for
details.
The Tag On icon
Tag On position
Tag On: Look for the Tag On icon next to the LCD
screen on the control panel. This is where you position your
smart phone when using the Tag On function with the LG
Smart Diagnosis™ and Cycle Download features of the LG
Smart Laundry&DW App.
When you use the Tag On function, position your smart
phone so that the NFC antenna on the back of your smart
phone matches the position of the Tag On icon on the
appliance. If you do not know the position of your NFC
antenna, move your smart phone very slightly in a circular
motion until the application verifies the connection.
Because of the characteristics of NFC, if the transmission
distance is too far, or if there is a metal sticker or a thick case
on the phone, transmission will not be good. In some cases,
NFC-equipped phones may be unable to transmit
successfully.
