Before Using LG ThinQ Application
1
Use a smartphone to check the strength of the
wireless router (Wi-Fi network) near the appliance.
• If the distance between the appliance and the
wireless router is too far, the signal becomes
weak. It may take a long time to register or fail to
install the application.
2
Turn off the Mobile data or Cellular Data on your
smartphone.
3
Connect your smartphone to the wireless router.
NOTE
• To verify the Wi-Fi connection, check that the f icon
on the control panel is lit.
• The appliance supports 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi networks
only. To check your network frequency, contact your
Internet service provider or refer to your wireless
router manual.
• LG ThinQ is not responsible for any network
connection problems or any faults, malfunctions, or
errors caused by network connection.
• The surrounding wireless environment can make the
wireless network service run slowly.
• If the appliance is having trouble connecting to the
Wi-Fi network, it may be too far from the router.
Purchase a Wi-Fi repeater (range extender) to
improve the Wi-Fi signal strength.
• The network connection may not work properly
depending on the Internet service provider.
