IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION 3
IMPORTANT SAFETY IMFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
Your safety and the safety of others is very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and follow all safety messages.
This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can result in property damage or serious bodily
harm, even death.
The safety alert symbol will be followed by either the word “WARNING”or “CAUTION” then an important safety message. These
words mean:
WARNING Indicates the possibility of serious bodily harm or death.
CAUTION Indicates the possibility of injury or damage to property.
BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, or injury to persons when using this appliance, follow basic
precautions, including the following:
• Read all instructions carefully before using the dishwasher.
• Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.
• Only use detergents or rinse agents recommended for use in a
dishwasher. Keep all dishwasher detergents and additives out
of the reach of children.
• This appliance is not intended for use by young children.
• When loading items to be washed:
1) Load sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the
door seal.
2) Load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of
injury when reaching into the dishwasher.
yDo not wash plastic items in the dishwasher unless they are
labeled “dishwasher safe” or the equivalent. For plastic items
that are not so labeled, check the manufacturer’s recommen-
dations.
• Do not operate the dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are
properly in place.
• Do not tamper with the controls.
• Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door or dish racks of the
dishwasher.
• To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or

a hot water system that has not been used for two weeks or
more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system
has not been used for such a period of time, turn on all hot
water faucets and let the water ow for several minutes. This
will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. Since hydrogen
gas is ammable, do not smoke or use an open ame during
this time.
• Remove the door to the wash compartment when disposing of
an old dishwasher.
• The installer must ensure that the dishwasher is completely
enclosed at the time of installation.

PARTS AND FEATURES
FEATURES
LARGE CAPACITY
LG dishwashers allow
you to load very large
items in both the upper
and lower racks. The
tall tub provides extra
overall capacity and the
clearance to accommo-
date large dishes. Extra
large items (max. 14 in.)
may be loaded in the
lower rack by raising the
upper rack.
HYBRID DRYING SYSTEM
This system eectively
dries dishes without the
use of a heating element
that would increase en-
ergy consumption.
STEAM WASHING (not available on all models)
Steam technology pro-
vides better cleaning
performance than regu-
lar wash systems. Steam
is the most energy ef-
cient gentle care for
your nest china and
stemware.
VARIABLE SPRAY SYSTEM
Because the water spray
alternates between the
upper and lower racks,
all of the power from
the motor is directed
to one rack at a time.
This concentrates all the
cleaning power of the
motor on each rack in
turn.
BLUE LCD (not on all models) AND LIGHT
TOUCH BUTTONS
The light touch buttons
on the control panel
make selections easy
and convenient. The
blue LCD display clearly
displays the selected
cycle and options.

16 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
QUICK START
1. LOAD THE DISHES
Scrape the dishes free of excess food, bones, and any other
hard, non-soluble residue. Pull each rack out and load the
dishes as described in this manual.
2. MEASURE THE DETERGENT
Using the guidelines in this manual, ll the detergent cup
with the recommended amount of detergent and close the
lid. If a prewash is desired, the recess on top of the lid should
also be lled with detergent.
3. TURN ON THE DISHWASHER
To turn on the display panel, press the Power button.
4. CHECK THE RINSE AID
The Rinse Aid indicator light will illuminate if the level of rinse
aid in the dishwasher is low. Add rinse aid if the level is low to
maintain the eectiveness of the dry cycle.
5. SELECT THE CYCLE AND OPTIONS
Select the cycle and options that best t the load by referring
to the Cycle Selection Chart. The display will show the esti-
mated time for the cycle and options selected.
6. CLOSE THE DOOR
The dishwasher will start automatically, after a slight delay,
when the door is closed and latched. During the cycle, the
display will indicate the estimated time remaining for the
cycle and options selected. If the door is opened during the
cycle, the dishwasher will stop. When the door is closed, the
cycle will resume from the point where it was stopped.
7. END OF CYCLE
When the cycle is complete, a chime will sound and the dis-
play will show “END.” After a short time, the display and con-
trols will shut o for safety and energy conservation.
CAUTION
Empty the lower rack rst and then the upper rack. This will avoid
water from dripping from the upper rack onto dishes in the lower
rack.
WARNING
In general, it is not advisable to open the door while the dish-
washer is in operation. If the door is opened, a safety device stops
the dishwasher. Care should be taken when opening the door im-
mediately following the cycle, as steam may escape.
AUTO-OFF

CAUTION
NON-DISHWASHER SAFE ITEMS
The combination of high water temperature and dishwasher
detergents may damage certain items. LG does not recommend
washing the following items in the dishwasher:
• Hand painted silver or gold leaf dishes
• Wood or bone handled utensils
• Iron or other rust prone utensils
• Plastic items that are not dishwasher safe
When in doubt, check the manufacturers’ recommendations.
LOADING THE LOWER RACK
The lower rack should not be used for small items such as cups,
wine glasses, or small plates. These items should be loaded in the
upper rack.
For models with steam, load heavily soiled or stained dishes in the
front left side of the lower rack with the dirty side facing down.
This is the area that the stream enters the dishwasher. The use of
hot steam maximizes the dishwasher’s cleaning performance.
The extra tall tub allows loading of dishes, pans, or other utensils
up to 14 inches high.
The lower rack is recommended for dinner plates, soup bowls,
dishes, pots, pans, lids, and grill trays. Plates should be positioned
vertically and facing the center of the rack. Pots, pans, and large
bowls must be turned so that the inside faces downward. The sil-
verware basket may be used in either the lower or upper rack.
LOADING 10 PLACE SETTINGS LOADING 12 PLACE SETTINGS
yLoad plates, soup bowls etc. between the tines.
yLoad cookie sheets, cake pans and other large items on the
sides or back of the rack. Loading these items in the front of
the dishwasher can prevent the water spray from reaching the
detergent dispenser.
yMake sure that pot handles and other large items do not stop
the rotation of the spray arms.
Make sure that large items do not interfere with the
rotation of the spray arms, and do not prevent the
detergent dispenser from opening.

LOADING THE SILVERWARE BASKET
The silverware basket has separators to avoid scratching and tar-
nishing of delicate silverware. The basket can be separated into
three separate baskets that can be used individually in both the
upper and lower racks. Unlock the tabs above the left and right
side to separate.
WARNING
Be careful when loading and unloading sharp items. Load sharp
knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of personal injury.
SILVERWARE LOADING TIPS:
yFor best cleaning results, use the top separators in the basket
when loading silverware. The separators will prevent nesting
of silverware.
yLoad sharp items, such as knives, pointing down.
yWhen unloading the dishwasher, it is best to start with the sil-
verware basket. Doing so will prevent water droplets from fall-
ing on your silverware from the upper rack.
