Direct Drive System

The advanced Brushless DC motor directly drives the drum without belt and pulley.

Water Circulation

Spray detergent solution and water onto the load over and over. Clothes are soaked more quickly and thoroughly during wash cycle. The detergent suds can be removed more easily by the water shower during rinse cycle. The water circulation system uses both water and detergent more efficiently.

Built-in Heater

Internal heater automatically heats the water to the best temperature on selected cycles.

Child Lock

The Child lock prevents children from pressing any button to change the settings during operation.

Jumbo drum

LG’s jumbo drum can wash about 40% more load than conventional washing machines. A bigger drum improves the wash performance.

More economical by Intelligent Wash System

Intelligent Wash System detects the amount of load and water temperature, and then determines the optimum water level and washing time to minimize energy and water consumption.

Low noise speed control system

By sensing the amount of load and balance, it evenly distributes load to minimize the spinning noise level.

Auto Restart

If the washing machine is turned off by a power failure, it will restart automatically from the position it stopped at adjusting accordingly.

Safety device (Aqua lock)

[WD(M)-14310(5)FD/WD(M)-12310(5)FD]

Aqua lock System is designed for detecting water leak during operation to prevent water from flooding over the floor.
