  Ensure the plug is securely fitted into the wall outlet. Check the circuit breaker or replace the fuse, avoiding any increase in fuse capacity. If a circuit overload is the issue, consult a qualified electrician. Also, make sure the water supply tap is turned on. Close the door properly and press the Start/Pause button. Note that it may take a moment for the LG Washer to begin spinning after pressing Start/Pause, as the door must lock first.

  To resolve water leaks or excessive suds, check and tighten the hose connections on your LG Washer. Clear any clogs in the drain pipe, and if necessary, contact a plumber.

  To solve the issue of water not entering the LG Washer or entering slowly, or if water doesn't drain properly, first check another tap in the house to ensure there is water supply. Fully open the tap connected to the washer. Straighten any kinks in the hose. Inspect the filter of the inlet hose. Clean and straighten the drain hose, and also clean the drain filter.

  To address rattling, clanking, thumping, or vibrating noises, stop the LG Washer and inspect the drum and drain filter. If the noise persists after restarting, it may require service. If the sound continues, the washer might be unbalanced. Stop the washer and redistribute the load. Ensure you've removed the shipping bolts as per the Installation Instructions. Rearrange the wash load and adjust the leveling feet to ensure all four feet firmly contact the floor during the spin cycle.
