Why are my glasses cloudy after dishwasher cycles?

Cloudy glasses are typically caused by hard water mineral deposits or etching. For hard water, ensure rinse aid is being used and water softener salt is topped up. Adjust your dishwasher's water hardness setting according to your local water supply. Etching (permanent cloudiness) occurs from washing delicate glassware at high temperatures or with too much detergent. Use a lower temperature cycle for fine glassware and reduce detergent quantity. Once etched, glass cannot be restored.

First, switch off the washing machine and unplug it from the mains. Locate the drain pump filter behind the small access panel at the front bottom of the machine.

Remove any debris, lint or foreign objects from the filter. Rinse under running water, then reinsert and turn clockwise to secure. Clean monthly for optimal performance.

Why won't my LG washing machine door open?

The door will not open if water remains in the drum or if the drum is hot. Wait for the machine to cool and drain completely. If the door lock indicator is off but the door remains locked, switch off the machine and unplug it for one to two minutes, then try opening the door. After a power cut, the door may remain locked until the machine is powered on again. Never force the door open as this may damage the locking mechanism.
