   NOTE: Once this function is enabled, you can only start a cycle from the LG ThinQ smartphone application. If the cycle is not started, the appliance will wait to start the cycle until it is turned off remotely from the application or this function is disabled.

   NOTE: If the door has been opened, you cannot start a cycle remotely.

5. To disable remote start manually press and hold the remote start button for 3 seconds.

Manage Favorites

With all the cycles available to choose from you may end up with a favorites list of your own. You can add up to 6 cycles to your favorites list to easily select from the cycles you use the most. On your next load you’ll see your favorites listed at the top of the cycle selection area.

Tub Clean Coach

You can utilize the tub clean coach to stay ahead of regular maintenance on your washer. LG recommends a tub clean every 30 cycles or at least once per month to keep your washer clean and fresh and performing at its best.

The tub clean coach will show you how many cycles have been run since your last tub clean and will allow you to start a tub clean all from within your LG ThinQ App.

Amazon Smart Reorders

Simply link your Amazon account in the LG ThinQ app and your LG appliance signals to Amazon when supplies are running low so users never run out of essentials.

Energy Monitoring

You can use this feature to keep an eye on how much energy your washer has consumed as well as the number of cycles you have been running.
