  • Features
    • Hard Food Disposer: false (This feature has blades to chop and disintegrate hard food particles, making them small enough to easily drain away. This prevents them from being recirculated back onto dishware and allows for easy maintenance.)
    • Drying Method: Condenser drying (Appliances that use heat to dry the dishes will include a heating element or minerals which transform moisture into heat. A fan or vent then circulates the hot dry air throughout the tub during the drying cycle. This may reduce drying time and the risk of water spots. Appliances that use minerals to produce heat are considered more energy efficient than those that include a heating element. Appliances that use condensation drying are considered more energy efficient than those that use heated drying. Instead, high temperature water is produced during the final rinse cycle which warms the interior and eventually condensates and drains out of the machine.)

Q: I just ran the dishwasher for the first time with dishes and all my glass bowls and glasses had really bad streaks and water spots. I did use rinse aid. I have never had this problem with much cheaper dishwashers. Has anyone else had this problem?

A: Which cycle did you just run on the LG STUDIO 24" Top Control Smart Wi-Fi Dishwasher - QuadWash - TrueSteam -Steel Tub with Light - Stainless Steel, Model # LSDT9908ST and did you leave the dishes to dry overnight? When dishes are often left overnight after the cycle ends, the steam inside the tub can condense on the dishes leaving them wet. The Night Dry option runs the ventilation fan periodically to help vent the steam from the tub. It is is selected by default on all cycles for which it is available, except the Normal cycle. If you ran the dishes in the Normal cycle, to add the Night Dry option to the Normal cycle, press and hold Extra Dry for 3 seconds. Rinse aid helps to ensure that the majority of the water has been sheeted off of the dishes at the end of the rinse and that the load is ready for the dry cycle. The cloudy film on your dishes after the wash is usually caused by minerals in the water reacting with the dishwasher detergent. First, be certain not to use too much detergent. Refer to Adding Detergent to the Dispenser section for recommended detergent amounts. Add an extra rinse to the cycle. LG Dishwashers use less water than traditional dishwashers, so adding an extra rinse aids in rinsing the film away. If the water supply is hard, it may be necessary to add a performance booster that addresses the hard water condition. Water tends to bead rather than sheet off plastic and nonstick surfaces, making them more difficult to dry. If washing plastic items in a Normal cycle, select the Extra Dry or Night Dry option or both for better drying results. When the rinse aid is empty, the Extra Dry option is selected automatically. Allow the dishwasher to completely finish the dry cycle before opening the door. If the door is opened in the middle of the dry cycle, the heat that is necessary for the hybrid dry system to work will escape. This will cause all of the dishes inside to remain wet once the cycle finishes...^IFV

Q: Can the top rack be removed and not use?

A: Yes. I did this when looking at it in the store. Similar to removing a rack from you oven.

Q: What does Studio mean for this dishwasher? I noticed the other slightly less expensive LG dishwashers do not use this term.

A: LG Studio appliances are our high-end appliances. Turn your kitchen into a stunning work of art with the new LG Studio Appliance Series. This new Studio Series by LG Appliance features today's modern look combined with elegant function in a range of premium refrigerators, cooktops, ranges, ovens, and microwaves.The LG Studio dishwasher uses powerful TrueSteam which virtually eliminate the need for prewash. ^Daphane

Q: Can LG - STUDIO 24" Top Control Built-In Dishwasher with TrueSteam, Light, 3rd Rack do a half of load? Does it have quick wash? How long does it take a load?

A: The LG STUDIO 24" Top Control Built-In Dishwasher with TrueSteam, Light, 3rd Rack, 40dBA - PrintProof™ Stainless Steel, Model # LSDT9908SS has a Half Load option that washes intensively by selecting the upper or lower racks. For small loads, you can use just the upper or lower rack to save energy and time. By pressing the Half Load button, the settings ▲▼, and the cancellation of the Half Load option are available. This dishwasher does not have a Quick Wash cycle. It has a Turbo cycle that will clean heavily soiled dishes in an hour using slightly more energy and water. This cycle does not have drying. Select the Extra Dry and Night Dry option or another cycle for better drying. The display will show anywhere from 59 minutes to 121 minutes for this cycle. The actual running time and cycle time displayed may change depending on options chosen, soil level, water temperature, and hardness of the water. Therefore, display time and actual running time can be different...^IFV

Q: Does this dishwasher need to have an air gap—one that vents out at the sink. Or is there a check valve already in place to ensure no back flow of dirty water?

A: Yes, an air gap is recommended for proper installation. There is not a check valve. For further assistance, please reach out to our support team via private message on Facebook @LGUSSupport and use #VOC in your first message to our social media support team or call at 800-243-0000. ^Daphane

Q: Does this dishwasher, LG Studio 24" Top Control dishwasher, Model: LSDT9908BD come with an electrical cord attached to plug it into an outlet or does it need to be hardwired for electricity?

A: The LG - STUDIO 24" Top Control Smart Wi-Fi Dishwasher - QuadWash - TrueSteam -Steel Tub with Light - PrintProof Black Stainless Steel, Model # LSDT9088BD does not come with an attached power cord. It has to be hardwired. If your local codes and ordinances allow you to attach a plug, the outlet must be within 4 feet on either side of the dishwasher and must be easily accessible...^IFV

Q: Will I need to purchase any Dishwasher Installation Kit in addition to the dishwasher? If so, can you make a recommendation on what to purchase?

A: Short answer, yes. If you’re having Best Buy install the dishwasher, you must purchase the installation kit or they will not install the dishwasher. The one available at Best Buy for purchase is about 35 bucks or so and works fine.

Q: When I was loading bowls, plates to rack, the rack rods hold bowls and plate kept fold down (Sorry I don’t know what to call them.) what should I do in order they stay still? I wish they do not have the folded racks. Please advise. Thanks.

A: The tines in the lower rack for the LG - STUDIO 24" Top Control Built-In Dishwasher with TrueSteam, Light, 3rd Rack, 40dBA - PrintProof™ Stainless Steel, Model # LSDT9908SS should snap in place so they don't fold when you load dinner plates, dishes, soup bowls, etc. between them. Make sure that snap in place so they don't fold down...^IFV
