How can Laundry Appliance features and terms help you quickly understand what they mean?

Washing Capacity

• Washing Machines are generally the same size on the outside, so it’s the drum capacity that makes the difference.
• Measured in kilograms, this figure tells you how much laundry can fit in one load.

AI DD^™

• LG’s AI DD^™ detects fabric type and weight, adjusting the wash for tailored care.
• Combined with DirectDrive^™ and 6-motion tech, it delivers a powerful yet gentle clean that protects your clothes.

• *Tested by Intertek on March 2019. Cotton cycle with 2kg of underwear compared to LG Conventional Cotton cycle (F4V9RWP2W vs. FC1450S2W). The results may be different depending on the clothes and environment.
• *AI DD is available in 3 cycles. (Cotton, Mixed Fabric, Easy Care).

Smart Pairing

• Simple, smart connectivity.
• Save time and effort with an LG smart pairing dryer that syncs and auto-selects drying programs.

• *Usage of this function requires the washer and dryer to be connected to your home Wi-Fi network and registered within the LG ThinQ^™ smart application.

Inverter Direct Drive^™

• LG Washing Machine appliances are powered by intelligent Inverter Direct Drive^™ technology.
• DirectDrive^™ motors mean that your washing drum is operated directly by an inverter motor without a belt or pulley—fewer moving parts mean less to go wrong.
• That makes for better durability as well as less vibration and noise in your LG Washing Machine.
• DirectDrive^™ technology combined with artificial intelligence in LG appliances draws on the power of big data to deliver an even more effective and intelligent washing machine to meet your laundry needs.

• *The 10-year warranty is on the Direct Drive motor only.

Product Dimensions

• All LG Washing Machines come in a standard height and width. It’s only the depth that changes depending on the drum size.
• Dimensions: W 600mm x H 850mm x D 565–675mm
• Use this five-point checklist to ensure your LG Washing Machine will be the perfect fit for your home:
  1. There must be enough space behind and around your washing machine for piping and installation. Make sure to read clearance space requirements for your model before ordering.
  2. Check there is enough clearance in front of your washing machine to open the door.
  3. Think about how you will get your washing machine to its final destination. Will it fit through doorways, up the stairs, or inside a communal lift? Measure and plan the access route beforehand as installation might otherwise cause problems.
  4. Ensure there is a power source within reach. LG recommends plugging your washing machine directly into the mains power, not via an extension cord.
  5. Stacking is a good way to save floor space – but do check there is a compatible stacking kit for your washer and dryer.

• Complete care in 39 minutes.
• TurboWash^™ 360° cleans your laundry in just 39 minutes.

• *Support for smart home devices compatible with Alexa and Google Assistant may vary by country and your individual settings.

Drying Capacity

• The drying capacity of a Washer Dryer is generally smaller than its wash load capacity.
• This is because the drying process requires more space in the drum, allowing hot air to circulate efficiently to dry your items.
• When choosing a washer dryer, make sure the drying capacity meets your needs.
• When using a washer dryer, either reduce the washing load or remove some items before you switch from wash to drying mode.

ezDispense^™

• Pre-load the detergent dispenser and let your washing machine do the work.
• LG’s auto-dosing ezDispense^™ technology senses the weight of your laundry load and automatically adds exactly the right amount of detergent every time.
• Removes the risk of over-dosing, saves you time, and helps prolong the life of your clothing.
• Super convenient and good for the environment.
• The detergent and softener compartments together hold up to 35 doses of cleaning power.

• *Wash up to 20 times with the normal dispense level (5kg load). Tested by LG internal lab; Cotton cycle with “normal” detergent level. Default detergent dosage amount is 42ml and softener amount is 30ml.

Smart Diagnosis^™

• Troubleshoot issues 24/7 through Smart Diagnosis^™.
• In the event of a problem, your phone will identify error codes that help LG customer service assist you.
• The LG Smart Diagnosis^™ system allows you to directly report an issue to the service centre so it can be resolved quickly—providing comfort and reliability.

Energy Efficiency Class

• Check the energy label on your washing machine to see its rating, from A (best) to G (worst).
• Selected LG Washing Machines boast Triple A ratings for energy, spin, and noise levels.
• Built-in AI technology in LG machines also helps optimise washing motions for each load, keeping energy use to a minimum.

• *Energy, Spin, and Noise grades are according to EU 2019/2014.
• *Results may vary depending on the usage environment.

AI Sensor Dry

• Built-in Intelligence Takes Out The Guesswork.
• Forget about endless sorting or toggling through cycles—built-in sensors use AI technology to detect fabric texture and load size, then automatically select the right drying motions, temperatures, and more for advanced fabric care.
• AI Sensor Dry^™ detects moisture levels and automatically adjusts drying time for loads of all sizes—no more damp clothes, no more overdrying.
• With Smart Pairing^™, the washer can even tell the dryer to select a compatible drying cycle*, making it the ultimate laundry hack.

• *Both washer and dryer need to be registered in the LG ThinQ app and connected to Wi-Fi to set up the Smart Pairing feature.

Auto Cleaning Condenser

• The dryer performs an automatic condenser clean function during the drying process to help maintain overall dryer performance.

6 Motion Direct Drive

• LG washers use a combination of 6 motions, based on hand-washing, to wash your clothes.
• Simply choose a cycle and your machine selects the best combination of washing motions to give you an outstanding wash, whilst also caring for your clothes.

Heat Source Type

• A heat pump dryer is a type of dryer that uses a heat pump to dry clothes.
• Introduced in the early 2000s, heat pump dryers are known for their high energy efficiency and low carbon footprint.
• They generally take longer to dry clothes compared to traditional vented dryers, which some users may find inconvenient.
• Electric and gas vented dryers use electric or gas heaters to warm the air inside the drum and blow it through the clothes to evaporate moisture.
• This heated air is then vented outside, causing heat loss and wasted energy.
• In contrast, heat pump dryers use a closed-loop system that recirculates air through the drum.
• After condensing moisture from the air, the warm air is reheated to continue drying without being vented.
• As a result, heat pump dryers use less energy and waste less heat—making them more environmentally friendly.

Steam+^™ Technology

• LG’s proprietary Steam+^™ technology effectively tackles both allergens and wrinkles.
• The Allergy Care function steams clothes at the start of the wash cycle to loosen fibres and dissolve allergens, including pollen and up to 99.9% of dust mites.
• Wrinkle Care re-applies steam after the spin cycle to reduce wrinkles by 30%, leaving fabrics crisp and clean.

• *Allergy Care Cycle approved by BAF (British Allergy Foundation) eliminates 99.9% of house dust mites.
• *Tested by Intertek in December 2018 in accordance with AATCC standard. Cotton Cycle with the “Wrinkle Care” option (3 mixed shirts) compared to the Cotton Cycle without that option. Results may differ depending on clothes and environment.
• *Wrinkle Care function is available in 6 cycles.

Dual Inverter heat pump^™

• Faster drying, more time for yourself.
• With DUAL Inverter Heat Pump^™ technology, drying can be done in just 30 minutes.
• The dual cylinder system compresses 15% more refrigerant than conventional dryers, drying your clothes faster so you can get on with your day.

• *Dual cylinder compressor (9.2 cc) compresses 15% more refrigerant at one time compared to single cylinder compressor (8.0 cc).

Max spin speed (RPM)

• Many people might not know that checking the spin cycle of a washing machine is just as important when planning to buy one.
• The spin cycle is used to dry your clothes after washing and is measured by the number of revolutions per minute (RPM).
• Normally, washing machines come with a spin cycle of 400 to 500 RPM, while for heavier clothes, it increases to around 800 to 1000 RPM.
• LG’s washing machine range offers up to 1400 RPM, providing the best spinning performance.
