PARTS AND FEATURES

LG dishwashers allow you 
to load very large items in 
both the upper and lower 
racks. The tall tub pro-
vides extra overall capaci-
ty and the clearance to ac-
commodate large dishes. 
Extra large items (max. 14 
in.) may be loaded in the 
lower rack by raising the 
upper rack.

The new Slim Direct Mo-
tor™ is inverter-controlled. 
Wash power is controlled 
based on cycle selection. 
It also offers high energy 
efficiency to minimize en-
ergy use.

This system effectively 
dries dishes without the 
use of a heating element 
that would increase en-
ergy consumption.

 

The water spray alternates 
between the upper and 
lower racks, so all of the 
power from the motor is di-
rected to one rack at a time. 
This concentrates all of the 
cleaning power of the motor 
on each rack in turn.

 

For best wash results, your LG 
dishwasher has a built-in soft 
food grinder and a selfclean-
ing filter. The grinder grinds 
up soft food and residue into 
small particles that can be 
caught in the filter and washed 
down the drain. The self-
cleaning filter system continu-
ously cleans the wash water as 

it circulates to separate any residue from the wash water. All dirt 
and residue easily washes down the drain.
