Q: How long is the wash cycle?
A: Hi H2! Which of the 7 wash cycles on the LG Fully-Integrated SteamDishwasher™ w/ 3rd Rack, Model # LDF8874ST were you interested in knowing the cycle time on? The Auto Wash Cycle takes about 135 minutes, the Heavy cycle takes about 166 minutes, Delicate cycle takes 141 minutes, the Dual Control cycle takes 147 minutes, the Normal cycle takes from about 110~139 minutes, the Quick & Dry cycle takes about 79 minutes and the Rinse only cycle takes about 22 minutes...^IFV
Q: Self cleaning drain / filter
A: Hi Jim, we appreciate your interest in the LG Fully-Integrated SteamDishwasher™ w/ 3rd Rack, Model # LDF8874ST. This unit has 3 filters, a Mesh Filter, an Outer Filter and an Upper STS Filter that all need to be cleaned of any food debris that might cause odors...^IFV
Q: does it have very strong smell when new and for how long?
A: We definitely understand your concern with the chemical, plastic or rubber smells associated with new products and especially in your case where they can be bothersome to an asthmatic child. However, the intensity of the smells or how long they will take to dissipate will vary from one person to the next because environmental conditions that affect that will vary. How you use the LG - SteamDishwasher 24" Tall Tub Built-In Dishwasher - Stainless-Steel, Model # LDF8874ST will also determine what the intensity of the smells will be like and how long it takes to fade because water temperatures will vary. As a suggestion, if you are able to visit a Best Buy that has this model on display, being familiar with what intensity of smell would be likely to bother your child, you may want to look it over although that by itself does not guarantee that every unit will be the same, but at least will give you some idea. The intensity of the smells and how long they take to fade is something that cannot be duplicated and you may find that one unit smells a little stronger than another or that the smell from one unit takes longer to fade compared to another. Regrettably, there's just no way of predicting this...^IFV
Q: Does this dishwasher heat water for all cycles?
A: Yes, there is a water heater, and it has the ability to create steam. Any of the steam cycles will heat the water so dried on food will soften before washing. Most cycles, but not all, are steam cycles. The cycles, however, can run for a considerable amount of time, depending on which combination of cycles you choose. For instance, if I run the longest cycle (i.e., a heavy cycle, which is also a steam cycle, and extra drying time), the dishwasher will run for nearly 3 hours and 45 minutes. But, the length of time the dishwasher will run depends on the particular cycle(s) you choose.
A: undefined
A: We regret to read that you are disappointed that the detergent trap in your LG Top Control SteamDishwasher™ w/ 3rd Rack, Model # LDF8874ST is not opening during cleaning cycles and apologize for any inconveniences. They may be some disassembly required depending on which part is broken in the dispenser. If a dispenser part is broken and you don't want to disassemble the detergent dispenser to replace the part, you can replace the entire dispenser. Although not likely, it could also be that you have a faulty main control board. The main control board provides power to nearly every component of the dishwasher. If there is a problem with the main control board, it might not send voltage to the detergent dispenser, preventing the dispenser from opening. If you know which part is broken and are looking to replace it yourself, you can visit our site at http://www.lg.com/us/support/parts-accessories and click on the appropriate part of the U.S. map to locate an LG Authorized Parts Distributor closest to your location from whom you can order the part. You can also visit our site at https://www.lg.com/us/support/repair-service/find-repair-provider to use the Repair Service Provider Locator to find an LG Authorized Repair Service Center in your area who can repair the dispenser for you or you can contact our Support Representatives at (800) 243-0000 and have them assist you scheduling a repair service...^IFV
