If you raise the Upper Rack, you can load large dishes in the Lower Rack.
(Max. 14 in.)
The tall tub provides large dishes loading as well as large capacity.
LG dishwashers let you load oversized items in the Lower and Upper Rack.

Newly introduced Slim Direct Inverter motor is inverter-controlled. Speed is
controlled based on program selection. It also offers high energy efficiency to
minimize energy loss.

This is one of the best performance solutions for drying dishes because it
minimizes venting humid air to the outside of the dishwasher. In addition, this
system ensures better drying results compared to the condensing drying
system.

Because of alternating water spray between the Upper and Lower
Rack, the water pressure allows superior performance and reduced
consumption of water and electricity.

For best wash results, the self-cleaning filter system continuously cleans the
water as it circulates. Your LG dishwasher has a self-cleaning filter that grinds
food into small particles before it goes down the drain.
