[LG top load washing machine water supply] Strong current of water is not provided. (The time is too short. The current of water is too weak.)

  • Troubleshooting

When the LG DD motor spins the tub fast, the laundry pushed upwards by strong centrifugal force hits the tub cover, creating 6 streams of water and pounding the clothes all over.

All LG top load washing machine models equipped with the LG DD motor can create strong force of current.
However, belt-type models such as the agitator spinning demonstration model with the belt motor applied are excluded.

Causes and Symptoms

  • Strong force of current is not provided.
  • The time for strong force of current is too short.
  • Strong force of current is weaker in comparison to the store.
Strong force of current applied courses
Strong force of current applied courses: Standard, Pre-wash Standard, My Mind, Safe, Heavy Wash
Other courses [Duvet, Hand/Wool, etc.] do not provide strong force of current.
Applied water levels : Water levels 4 to 6
For other water levels [water levels 1 to 3 and 7 to 10], strong force of current is not provided or the current of water may be weak.
Applied time: 1-3 minutes [main washing - 17 minutes]
Courses with the longest provision - Pre-wash+Standard course [strong force of current - a total of 5-7 minutes]

Strong force of current is not provided.

Strong force of current is provided in Standard [Pre-wash Standard] at water levels 4 to 6 for optimal washing.
It is not provided in other courses (Duvet, Hand/Wool, etc.), and it is also not provided if the water level is too high or too low.
If you wish to use strong force of current, wash laundry using the Standard [Pre-wash Standard] course with water levels 4 to 6.

※ Other courses: Duvet, Hand/Wool, Fast, etc.

The time for strong force of current is too short.

1 to 3 minutes [out of 17 minutes of main washing] are enough for the strong force of current. As a result of an official test, the washing power is 12% higher than the products with no strong force of current provided.

Strong force of current is weaker in comparison to the store.

In stores, the demonstration is carried out with an empty tub to help customers understand the shape of a stream of water, and the strong force of current may vary depending on the tub size, water level, amount of laundry, type of laundry, leveling condition, etc.
