ENGLISH

Preparing Cabinet Opening

This dishwasher is designed to fit a standard

dishwasher opening. An opening may be needed

on both sides to route plumbing and electrical

connections.

• To ensure proper drainage, install the dishwasher

no more than 12 ft. (3.65 m) from the sink.

• The location must have sufficient space for the

dishwasher door to open easily and provide at

least 0.1” (2 mm) between the dishwasher and the

cabinet sides.

• If installing the dishwasher in a corner, leave a

minimum of 2” (50 mm) between the dishwasher

and the adjacent wall.

• The adjacent wall must be free of obstructions.

• For flush installations only, you may remove the

cabinet brace inside the cabinet.

Select a location as close to the sink as

possible for easy connections to water supply

line, drain hose and electrical connection.

To allow for proper clearance of plumbing and

electrical, use the template included with the

literature to determine the clearance on the

side of the cabinet where the cabinet meets

the back wall. Using a 2

/2” diameter hole saw,

drill a hole in the target area as shown on the

template.

3.5

2.5

WARNING

• Installation damage is not covered by the

warranty, and leaks caused by improper

installation may result in property damage.

• Do not use existing holes unless they are in the

target area.

• Failure to properly locate the hole for the water

and drain lines may prevent the dishwasher

from installing flush with the cabinets and could

result in kinked, pinched, crushed, stressed or

damaged lines.

14 INSTALLATION

Preparing Water and

Electrical Connections

There are 2 channels in the bottom of the dishwasher

for routing the water and electrical connections. As

shown in the bottom view below, channel is for the

water supply line, and channel is for the electrical

cable.

Turn off the house water supply and the circuit

breaker or dedicated power before connecting

the dishwasher.

Run the water supply line along the floor 6

/2 –

/4” (165–197 mm) from the left side of the

opening and tape it in place in front of the

opening.

Run the electrical cable along the floor

14–16” (356–406 mm) from the water supply line

and tape it in place.

• The electrical outlet must be within 4 ft. (1.22

m) of either side of the dishwasher.

• The best location for the electrical conduit is

on the right side of the back wall. Re-route

the electrical cable before installation if the

electrical conduit pipe is longer than 3” (76

mm) and is centered on the back wall.

WARNING

Water Connection

• Do not reuse an old hose. Use only a new hose

when installing the dishwasher. The old hose

could leak or burst causing flooding and property

damage. Contact an LG Customer Information

Center for assistance in buying a new hose.

Electrical Connection

• Operate this appliance with the correct voltage

as shown in this manual and on the rating plate.

• The wiring must be grounded properly. If in

doubt, have it checked by a qualified electrician.

• Connect the appliance using 3-wires, including a

ground wire.

• The appliance and outlet must be positioned so

that the plug is easily accessible.

• Do not use an extension cable or adapter with

this dishwasher.

• Do not overload the outlet with more than one

appliance.

• The included 16AWG wire nuts should be used.

• It is the personal responsibility and obligation

of the product owner to have a proper outlet

installed by a qualified electrician.

CAUTION

• When connecting the dishwasher water supply

line to the house water supply, sealing tape or

compound should be used on pipe threads to

avoid leaks. Tape or compound should not be

used on compression fittings.

• Connect the dishwasher to a hot water supply

with a temperature range between 120 °F (49

°C) and 149 °F (65 °C). This temperature range

provides the best washing results and shortest

cycle time. To prevent damage to dishes, the

temperature should not exceed 149 °F (65 °C).

• Water supply pressure must be between 20 psi

and 80 psi (140–550 kPa). If the water supply

pressure exceeds 80 psi, a pressure reducing

valve must be installed. Otherwise premature

failure of the inlet valve may occur.

15INSTALLATION

Leveling Dishwasher

Check that the dishwasher is level and adjust the

leveling feet if necessary.

CAUTION

• Failure to level the dishwasher may result in

leakage, problems closing the door, or noise.

• Where the cabinet opening is narrower than

recommended (see Preparing Cabinet

Opening), the dishwasher must be carefully

leveled and aligned so that the dishwasher is

supported fully by the 3 leveling feet and is not

hanging from the installation brackets. Failure

to do so can result in leaks from the front of the

dishwasher, AE errors, difficulty in closing the

door, or failure to operate.

Checking Leveling

To check that the tub is level from front to back,

remove the lower rack and pour 169 oz. (5 L) of water

into the bottom of the tub. The water level should be

near the center of both tub lower indentations at the

front.

With the lower rack removed, place a level on the

inside wall of the tub to check that the dishwasher is

level from side to side.

• If you do not have a level, try using a smartphone

level application instead.

Make sure that the gap between the tub walls and the

door liner is the same on either side.

24 INSTALLATION

Adjusting Leveling Feet

Adjust as needed until the dishwasher is completely

leveled.

Adjusting Front Leveling Feet

• Use a flat-blade screwdriver to turn the front leveling

feet and adjust the front of the tub.

• Turn the front leveling feet clockwise to raise the

front of the tub and counterclockwise to lower it.

• The adjustments work identically for both front

leveling feet.

When the flat-blade screwdriver is unavailable, use a

¼” square drive wrench or ⅜” square drive wrench

with ½” socket to turn the front leveling feet and

adjust the front of the tub.

Adjust the front and rear leveling legs until they

are all in firm contact with the floor. Failure to level

the dishwasher may prevent the door from closing

properly and the dishwasher will not turn on.

Adjusting Rear Leveling Foot

• Use a Phillips screwdriver to adjust the rear leveling

foot and the rear of the tub using the center screw

at the base of the appliance in the front.

• Turn the center screw clockwise to raise the rear of

the tub and counterclockwise to lower it.

NOTE

• To avoid damaging the screw, do not use an electric

screwdriver.

• To set the rack to the middle position, it may be

easier to lower the rack all the way down and then

raise each side of the rack individually until it clicks

into place.

• Before pushing the upper rack into the dishwasher,

ensure the rack height is the same on both sides.

If the height is not the same on both sides, the

dishwasher door will not shut and the upper spray

arm will not connect to the water inlet.

• There is a 24

/8 inches (56 mm) gain in height when

the upper rack is moved to the lower position.

• After adjusting the rack levels, check that the spray

arms are free to rotate.

• With the lower position of the upper rack, check if

the bottom part of upper rack including spray arm is

not disturbing items on the lower rack.

• When the upper rack is in the lower position, push

in the upper rack first, and the lower rack later.

• Pull out the lower rack first, and the upper rack later.

• Raise the upper rack without pushing the buttons

38 OPERATION

Adding Cleaning Agents

Adding Detergent to the Dispenser

• Remove the label on the dispenser prior to running

the dishwasher for the first time.

• The amount of detergent needed depends on the

cycle, load size, and soil level of dishes.

• Put detergent into the detergent compartment

before starting any cycle, except the Rinse cycle.

Push the button on the dispenser lid to open the

cover.

Add dishwashing detergent to the main wash

compartment until the level is between the lines

marked 15 and 25.

• Fill to over the 25 line for hard water or heavily

soiled loads.

• Fill to the 15 line for soft water or lightly soiled

loads.

Push the detergent lid to slide the lid closed until

it clicks.

If a prewash is desired, fill the recessed prewash

compartment area on the lid with detergent.

WARNING

• Dishwasher detergent and rinse aid contain

chemical components, like all other household

detergent. So, they must be kept out of the reach

of children.

CAUTION

• Use only detergent intended for dishwashers.

Incorrect detergent may cause the dishwasher to

fill with suds during operation. Excess suds may

reduce wash performance and may cause the

dishwasher to leak.

• To avoid damaging the dispenser, do not pull up

on the dispenser to close the dishwasher door.

NOTE

• After completion of the wash program, check

whether the detergent was completely washed out.

• Some dishwasher detergent tablets may become

stuck in the dispenser due to their excessive size.

Tablets can be placed onto the base of the wash tub

next to the filter before starting the cycle.

• Too much detergent can leave a film on dishes

and in the dishwasher, resulting in poor wash

performance.

• If dishwasher detergent tablets are used without

liquid rinse aid, the dishes and dishwasher interior

will have excessive moisture. Select the Extra Dry

option for better drying performance.

• Using liquid rinse aid improves drying performance

by allowing water to drain off of dishes after final

rinse.

• Do not use detergent tablets for shorter wash

cycles. The tablet may not dissolve completely,

causing detergent residue on dishes and inefficient

cleaning.

• Using a wash booster helps remove spots, residue,

and the white film caused by hard water. It does not

help remove excess detergent residue.

39OPERATION

ENGLISH

Adding Rinse Aid to the Dispenser

The Rinse Aid indicator appears in the display when

more rinse aid is needed.

The use of rinse aid is recommended to prevent

water spots on dishes and to enhance drying

performance.

Open the rinse aid lid by lifting up the flap.

Add a liquid rinse aid to the maximum fill level.

The rinse aid should be settled in the dispenser

while filling, or air bubbles may result in poor

drying performance. Avoid overfilling the

dispenser.

Close the lid to lock the dispenser. Rinse aid is

dispensed automatically during the final rinse

cycle.

NOTE

• Only use liquid rinse aid in the dishwasher.

• Do not overfill the rinse aid dispenser.

• Wipe off any spilled rinse aid around the dispenser.

Rinse Aid Dispenser Adjustment

The dispenser has five adjustment levels. The

dishwasher is programmed at the factory for a rinse

aid dispenser level of 2. This can be checked and

altered by using the buttons on the control panel.

Ensure the appliance is off.

Press Dual Zone and Power simultaneously to

check the current setting.

Press Delay Start to change the rinse aid

dispenser setting. Each press of the button

changes the setting one step from L0 to L4.

Once the desired rinse aid dispenser setting is

selected, press Start to save.

NOTE

• Adjust the setting higher if you have hard water and

notice calcium buildup on your dishes.

• Setting the rinse aid control too low will contribute

to spotting and streaking on dishes and poor drying

performance.

• Setting the control too high can cause foaming,

which will cause poor wash performance.

Refilling the Rinse Aid

How often the dispenser needs to be refilled depends

on how often dishes are washed and the rinse aid

setting used.

• The Rinse Aid icon flashes when more rinse aid

is needed, unless the rinse aid dispenser setting is

set to L0.

FAQs: Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does this dishwasher require a rinse aid to be used?

A: Rinse aid is strongly recommended to enhance the drying performance of the dishwasher. In order to

be more energy efficient, the hybrid drying system does not use a heating element to assist in drying,

so a rinse aid plays an integral role in the drying process. If a rinse aid is not used, water may remain

on the dishes and the tub. Rinse aid helps to ensure that the majority of the water has been sheeted

off of the dishes at the end of the rinse and that the load is ready for the dry cycle.

Q: What can be done if my dishes have a cloudy, white film on them after a wash?

A: The cloudy film is usually caused by minerals in the water reacting with the dishwasher detergent.

First, be certain not to use too much detergent. Refer to Adding Detergent to the Dispenser section

for recommended detergent amounts. Add an extra rinse to the cycle. LG Dishwashers use less

water than traditional dishwashers, so adding an extra rinse aids in rinsing the film away. If the water

supply is hard, it may be necessary to add a performance booster that addresses the hard water

condition.

Q: How do I remove white film on the tub?

Measure 3 tbsp. (40 g) of citric acid powder and use it to fill the main detergent compartment.

Run a Machine Clean cycle. Do not use detergent.

Q: What steps can I take to improve drying results?

A: Drying performance is directly affected by the amount of heat that remains in the tub after the

heated rinse is performed. If your dishwasher is far away from your home’s hot water heater, it may

be necessary to run the hot water tap in the sink before starting a wash cycle, to ensure that cool

water is purged from the hot water lines. This will ensure your dishwasher has a consistent supply

of hot water from start to finish. Using the High Temp setting also aids in keeping the inner drum

temperature and dishes hotter before drying begins.

LG dishwashers are designed to be used in conjunction with a rinse aid. Using a rinse aid will

maximize the amount of water that has already been sheeted away from the dishes before the dry

cycle begins. If a rinse aid is used and the performance still needs a boost, adjust the amount of

rinse aid used. 2 is the default setting, but if necessary set the level to 3 so more rinse aid is used.

Water tends to bead rather than sheet off plastic and nonstick surfaces, making them more difficult

to dry. If washing plastic items in a Normal cycle, select the Extra Dry or Night Dry option or both for

better drying results. When the rinse aid is empty, the Extra Dry option is selected automatically.

Allow the dishwasher to completely finish the dry cycle before opening the door. If the door is opened

in the middle of the dry cycle, the heat that is necessary for the hybrid dry system to work will

escape. This will cause all of the dishes inside to remain wet once the cycle finishes.

47TROUBLESHOOTING

ENGLISH

Q: What is the hybrid drying system?

A: The dishwasher does not rely on a heating element for the drying process; instead, it relies on the

heat that is retained by the dishes and the tub during the wash and rinse cycles to turn the moisture

in the tub into humidity.

Warm, moist air in the dishwasher is then pulled into a condensing duct in the door by a fan. The air

then cools, which causes the humidity to condense. Room temperature air is also drawn into the duct

to help the air cool down faster. When this moisture condenses into a liquid, it is drained out.

NOTE

• Rinse aid is required to enhance the drying performance. If no rinse aid is used, water may remain

on the dishes and the tub.

Q: Why am I hearing a whistling sound from the dishwasher?

A: It is important to determine the duration of the noise and when it happens (what part of the cycle).

When water is drawn into the dishwasher, a whistling noise can be heard. This is normal. If the water

pressure is too high, it will be louder, so it may be necessary to adjust the water valve to lower the

pressure if the noise is too loud.

Q: What kinds of dishes can be placed in the dishwasher?

A: Ensure that the dishes you place in the dishwasher are dishwasher safe. Plastic dishware will not

dry as effectively as glass and metal dishware. Plastic items do not retain heat as well as glass and

metal dishware. Plastic cups and dishes may require some hand drying before being put away at the

end of the cycle.

Q: Can I perform a drain only cycle?

A: To drain standing water, press and hold Start for three seconds until the cycle stops. Once the

dishwasher finishes draining, the power turns off.

Why does my dishwasher continuously chime if I open the door during a cycle or right after

the cycle has finished?

A: This is normal. The dishwasher is letting you know that the interior temperatures of the unit are hot

and to use caution when placing your hands inside. Once the unit has cooled down, the chiming will

stop.

48 TROUBLESHOOTING

Q: What is Control Lock and how is it activated?

A: Control Lock is a feature that prevents the controls from being changed during the cycle. It does

not prevent the door from being opened or the unit from being powered off. To activate or deactivate,

press and hold Half Load and Energy Saver simultaneously for three seconds.

Q: Can I add an extension to the drain hose?

A: If an extension drain hose is required, use

/8" or

/8" inside diameter, 2-3 ft. length hose and a coupler

for connecting the two hose ends.

An LED is blinking, the machine is chiming, and the dishwasher won't start. What is wrong

with the dishwasher?

A: This is a safety feature. The door must be closed within four seconds of pressing the Start button.

If the door is not closed within four seconds, an LED flashes, an audible alert sounds, and the

dishwasher does not operate. To start the dishwasher, open the door and either close the door and

press Start (front controls) or press Start and close the door within four seconds (top controls).

Q: Before loading dishes, should I pre-rinse dishes?

A: No, you don't need to pre-rinse the dishes before loading especially if using the Normal and Auto

cycles. The dishwasher washes dishes clean without pre-rinsing.
