<span class="aria-hidden" aria-hidden="true">➔</span> There are three possible methods of stacking.
</p><p class="txt-idt aria-txt" tabindex="0" role="text">
1. Using a universal stacking kit, if the washer and dryer are of different sizes.<br/>
(Installation is not possible if the dryer or the stacking kit is not LG manufactured.)
</p><p class="txt-idt aria-txt" tabindex="0" role="text">
2. Using a drawer type stacking kit, if a 9kg dryer is stacked on top of a regular front load washer.
</p><p class="txt-idt aria-txt" tabindex="0" role="text">
3. Using a standard stacking kit, if the dryer and washer are of the same size.
</p><p class="txt-idt aria-txt" tabindex="0" role="text">

<span class="aria-hidden" aria-hidden="true">※</span> Be sure to check the model of your washer and dryer before choosing the stacking kit.<br/>
(For models with the detergent dispenser located on top of the unit, use the universal stacking kit.)

<strong class="tip-tit aria-hidden" aria-hidden="true">Universal stacking kit</strong>
</acc>

<div class="con-view aria-txt" tabindex="0" role="text">
The universal stacking kit can be used to stack any model of LG dryer and washer.<br/>
(Non-LG models and stacking kits cannot be used.)<br/>

<div class="con-view aria-txt" tabindex="0" role="text">
Stacked installation requires securing the bracket to a wall.<br/>
Installation is not possible on Gypsum board (drywall) walls,<br/>
as the bracket cannot be properly fixed.<br/>
If your floor is uneven, use the included rubber feet to level the stacking kit.<br/>
Do not extend the stacking kit legs to adjust the level,<br/>
as this may cause noise and vibration during dryer operation.
