Q: QuestionHow long is the wash cycle?
Asked by Sisko.
- A:Answer 34 minutes to several hours depending which cycle one selects. We rarely have heavily soiled, greasy dishes so use the short cycle and get perfectly clean items. Diligent reading of the operating manual explains a lot.(grab a cup of coffee)Keep a highlighter handy to mark settings that apply to your life style.

Q: QuestionCan the height of this dishwasher be adjusted to 33 inches? Our countertop is only 33 inches from the floor.
Asked by Kelly.
- A:Answer No. It was shipped with the adjustment feet as tight to the dishwasher as possible, I assume to allow it to slip into the cavity as easily as possible. My cabinet’s cavity is exactly 34” high. After leveling the dishwasher inside the cavity, its top is only 7/16” from the underside of the countertop.

Q: QuestionHOW MUCH THE HAULING & ASSEMBLY WILL COST?
Asked by Anonymous.
This question was asked about the related product: LG - 24" Front Control Built-In Stainless Steel Tub Dishwasher with 3rd Rack, QuadWash, and 48dba - Black Stainless Steel
- A:Answer Best Buy typically charges between $149 to $199 for a basic dishwasher installation, and approximately $20 to $30 for their haul-away service for the removal of the old dishwasher. Before installation day, a Best Buy technician may conduct a pre-installation assessment. During this visit, they will evaluate your kitchen layout, plumbing situation, and electrical connections to ensure everything is set for a smooth installation. These prices may vary based on factors such as the type of dishwasher and any additional services required. It's advisable to get a detailed breakdown of the services provided during your consultation. If your kitchen has a pre-existing dishwasher space, installation could be more straightforward. However, if your kitchen requires modifications – such as plumbing adjustments or electrical work – expect additional costs. The installation cost of a dishwasher at Best Buy can vary significantly depending on several factors. One of the primary considerations is the complexity of the installation. For instance, if your existing plumbing and electrical setups are in good condition and compatible with the new dishwasher, the installation process will be straightforward, leading to lower costs. Conversely, if modifications are needed, such as rerouting plumbing or electrical work, the overall cost can increase substantially. If you need to disconnect your old dishwasher prior to installation, some stores may charge a separate fee. However, Best Buy’s installation service typically includes this in the base charge. Another factor to consider is the brand and model of the dishwasher you purchase. Higher-end models or those with advanced features may require more intricate installation processes. Additionally, local labor rates can impact installation costs. Therefore, it’s crucial to assess your specific situation and consult with a Best Buy representative for a more accurate quote based on your needs. Best Buy understands that some homeowners prefer to handle disassembly themselves to save money, while others may opt for the convenience of having Best Buy handle everything. If you choose to disassemble the old machine yourself, ensure you turn off the water supply and unplug the appliance before starting. Remember to take safety precautions to avoid any damage to the surrounding areas. For more accurate pricing, service details, and customer support, always check Best Buy’s official website or contact their customer service team...^Ivan.

Q: QuestionMy dishwasher stopped and is flashing a “bE” or “6E”. What is wrong?
Asked by Lyn.
- A:Answer Hello there, Lyn. We understand your inquiry about the "bE" or "6E" error code on your LG 24" Front Control Built-In Dishwasher. The "bE" error code typically indicates the use of an improper detergent or an issue with the appliance's leveling. To resolve this, please ensure you are using a detergent specifically designed for an automatic dishwasher and that the dishwasher is properly leveled. If suds are visible, you may also run an AUTO cycle with 4-7 ounces of milk in a shallow bowl on the upper rack to help eliminate them. If the issue persists, please send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport and our team will be more than happy to explore possible solutions.
