Appliance is overloaded.
• The appliance can be fully loaded, but the drum should not be tightly
packed with items. The door of the appliance should be closed easily.

Odours can occur if the drain hose is not properly installed, causing
siphoning (water flowing back inside of the appliance).

blocked.

• Find the Wi-Fi network connected to your smartphone and remove it, then
register your appliance on LG ThinQ.

• Only a 2.4 GHz router frequency is supported. Set the wireless router to 2.4
GHz and connect the appliance to the wireless router. To check the router
frequency, check with your internet service provider or the router
manufacturer.
The distance between the appliance and the router is too far.
• If the distance between the appliance and the router is too far, the signal
