Adding Cleaning Products - LG WM4500HA Serie El Manual Del Propietario

20 OPERATION
• Combine large and small items in the drum.
Load large items first. Large items should not be
more than half of total load.
• The washer can be fully loaded, but the drum
should not be tightly packed with items. The
door of the washer must close easily.
• The washer will not fill or operate with the door
open.
Bulky Items
• Wash thick, bulky items individually. Heavy
blankets, comforters, bed spreads, or pet beds
can get tangled or cause an unbalanced load if
combined with other items.
Small Items
• Do not wash a single small item. Add enough
similar items to the load to prevent an out-of-
balance load.
• Wash small, light items in a mesh bag. Small
items can get caught in the impeller at the
bottom of the drum, and brassiere hooks can
snag on other clothing or the drum.
Waterproof Items
• Do not wash/spin waterproof items. Washing
raincoats or sleeping bags may result in
abnormal vibration or may cause the load to
bounce, which could damage the drum.

About Detergent Use
This washer is designed for use with only HE (High-
Efficiency) detergents.
• HE detergents produce fewer suds, dissolve
more efficiently to improve washing and rinsing
performance, and help to keep the interior of
the washer clean. Using detergent that is not HE
may cause oversudsing and unsatisfactory
performance which could result in error codes,
cycle failure, and washer damage.
• Detergents designated as HE-compatible may
not provide optimal results.
• For proper wash performance, always measure
detergent using the measuring device provided
by the detergent manufacturer. For an average
load, use less than half of the recommended
maximum. Use less detergent for soft water,
light soil, or smaller loads.
• Use extra care when measuring 2X and 3X
concentrated detergents because even a small
amount of extra detergent can lead to problems.
• Never use more than the maximum amount of
detergent recommended by the manufacturer.
Using too much detergent can lead to
oversudsing, poor rinsing, detergent buildup in
clothing, and residue buildup that can contribute
to odors in the washer.
• Do not use more than one single-use detergent
pack in the washer. Using too much detergent
may cause oversudsing and unsatisfactory
performance. Reduce detergent amount or add
an extra rinse if detergent residue is left on
fabrics. To add an extra rinse, select the Extra
Rinse option.

Single-Use Detergent Packs
Place liquid or powdered detergent packs in the
drum before loading laundry. Do not place
detergent packs in the dispenser.
Using the ezDispense Function
When the ezDispense function is turned on, the
liquid detergent and softener are dispensed in the
set amounts, at the appropriate time during the
cycle.
• A full detergent reservoir will last for about 18
standard cycles, with the drum filled about
halfway.
• The default settings are configured to dispense
1.5 oz (45 ml) of detergent and 1 oz (30 ml) of
softener for 8-12 lb (4-6 kg) of normally soiled
laundry. This can be changed using the
