QuestionDoes the silverware basket open? Or do you have to put your silverware in the slots?
Asked 4 years ago by Cris.
- Answer The silverware basket does open or you can keep it closed and put utensils in each separate slot on the cover. It is also removable so when it's time to take care of your silverware you can take the entire basket out of the dishwasher. I love this feature and it has worked great. Hope this helps!

QuestionIs there supposed to be a spray arm on the top of this dishwasher above the utensil rack, or is it now an armless sprayer instead? My old LG dishwasher had an actual spray arm located there. This new one does not have one. Just curious.
Asked 2 years ago by Summer.
- Answer Yes this unit does have a sprayer at the bottom of the rack. However, it is not the older model with the spray arms the sprayer mount is smaller and round to prevent food and rust getting stuck in them. This a feature to have less maintenance and an effective dishwashing cycle every time .^Tanisha

QuestionIs the third rack removable? In other words, can you take it out when not needed and put back in when needed?
Asked 3 years ago by Charlie53.
- Answer Yes. But you can just leave it in too. I’ve only used mine once so far. At first the taller glasses wouldn’t fit with the 3rd rack in, but all I did was lower the 2nd rack one level, and now they fit without having to take the top rack out.

Questions is true that this doesn't heat up the water, it just uses the water at temperature it comes out of the tap? So unless the water is run in the sink beforehand, the 1st wash cycle uses the tap water (cold) and doesn't wash well.
Asked 4 months ago by SCCP.
This question was asked about the related product: LG - 24" Front Control Built-In Tub Dishwasher with 3rd Rack, Quadwash, and 48dba - Stainless Steel
- Answer The LG 24" Front Control Built-In Stainless Steel Tub Dishwasher with 3rd Rack, Quadwash, and 48dba - PrintProof Stainless Steel, Model # LDFN4542S, does not heat water. It has to be connected to a hot water supply with a temperature range between 120 °F (49 °C), and 149 °F (65 °C). This temperature range provides the best washing results and the shortest cycle time. The temperature should not exceed 149°F (65 °C) to prevent damage to dishes. How long it takes for the hot water to reach the dishwasher will depend on how far your water heater is from the dishwasher. If the dishwasher is far away from your home’s water heater, it may be necessary to run the hot water tap in the sink before starting a wash cycle to ensure that cool water is purged from the hot water lines. This will ensure your dishwasher has a consistent supply of hot water from start to finish...^Ivan.

- Answer You have to be sure the rack is pushed onto the water inlet on the back wall. You have to actually push the rack until it snaps into place. Otherwise, no, it won't clean.

QuestionTwo questions.Which dishwashing detergent is recommended gel, powder or pods? What is recommended for surface cleaning?I need to remove adhesive from front panel.
Asked 3 years ago by Newbie.
This question was asked about the related product: LG - 24" Front Control Built-In Tub Dishwasher with 3rd Rack, Quadwash, and 48dba - Stainless Steel
- Answer Hi, There! Overall, the best-performing detergent packs clean better than the best gels. That's because they contain a wider mixture of ingredients that can boost cleaning, including enzymes, degreasers, bleach, and rinse aids. Different combinations of those substances can make a big difference. To remove any adhesive residue from the stainless steel surface, you can rub the surface with small amounts of kerosene and a dry cloth. ^James.
