Why do the drum and the pulsator rotate continuously in the same direction without alternating?
Frequently Asked Questions - 07/02/2026
Response Notice-Facile

Abnormal behavior detected. The drum and the pulsator of the LG WFT14C65EF should operate according to a system called "Turbo drum washing": they rotate in opposite directions and regularly alternate their direction of rotation throughout the cycle. This alternation creates multidirectional water currents that optimize the cleaning of the laundry.

If the drum continuously rotates to the right and the pulsator continuously to the left without ever reversing their direction, this indicates a mechanical or electrical malfunction:

  • Motor or drive belt issue - The mechanism that controls the reversal of the rotation direction is blocked or damaged.
  • Clutch failure - The clutch does not engage or disengage properly to reverse the direction.
  • Control circuit failure - The electronic board no longer transmits the reversal signals.

Recommended action: Immediately stop using your washing machine. Continuous operation in one direction does not ensure effective washing and may damage your clothes. Contact an authorized LG repairer or a qualified technician, specifically mentioning: "The drum and the pulsator rotate continuously in one direction without reversing the direction of rotation." This issue requires professional repair.

- Examples of water-proof or water-resistant items include certain mattress pads, mattress covers, rain gear, camping gear, skiing apparel, outdoor gear and similar items.

Pretreatment on stains or heavy soil

  • Pretreat shirt collars and cuffs with a pre-wash product or liquid Detergent when placing them in the washer. Before washing treat special stains with bar soaps, liquid Detergent or a paste of water and granular Detergent.
  • Use a pretreat soil and stain remover.

Treat stains AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. The longer they are left the harder they are to remove.

(For more detail refer to page13)

Loading

Do not wash fabrics containing flammable materials (waxes, cleaning fluids, etc.).

Load Size

The WATER LEVEL should just cover the clothes. Adjust the load size accordingly. Loosely load clothes no higher than the top row of holes in the washer tub. To add items after washer has started, press Start button and submerge additional items. Close the lid and press Start button again to restart.

WARNING

Fire Hazard

Never place items in the washer that are dampened with gasoline or other flammable fluids.

No washer can completely remove oil. Do not dry anything that has ever had any type of oil on it (including cooking oils). Doing so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

Light and Large-sized clothing

Clothes like downs and woollens are light weight, large and float easily. Use a nylon net and wash them in a small amount of water. If the laundry floats during the wash cycle, it may become damaged. Use dissolved Detergent to prevent the Detergent from clumping.

LG WFT14C65EF - Light and Large-sized clothing - 1

Long laundry items Use nylon nets for long, DELICATE items. For laundry with long strings or long length, a net will prevent tangling during washing. Fasten zippers, hook, and strings to make sure that these items don't snag on other clothes.

※ Nylon net is not supplied by LG.

se of Water, Detergent, Bleach and Softener

Using Water

Amount of WATER LEVEL

  • This machine detects the quantity of laundry automatically, then sets the WATER LEVEL and proper amount of Detergent.
  • When you select a wash program, the WATER LEVEL and amount of Detergent (to be used) will be shown on the control panel.
  • The following table shows the amount of water.
  • When the WATER LEVEL is automatically detected, it may differ depending on the quantity of laundry even though the same WATER LEVEL is indicated on the control panel.
  • The amount of a cup in the diagram is about 40g for concentrated Detergent.

WATER · DETERGENT XL L M S

NOTE

[ Minimum water amount ]

It depends on laundry load and washer model. Or manually you can pour a certain amount water into tub directly to some height. That's because if water level reaches to the some height sensed by washer itself, washer automatically operates. In other words, it is needed to pour water to the point when washer starts operating.

Water Temperature

  • The machine sets the appropriate temperature automatically according to the wash program.
  • You can change the Water Temperature by pressing the WATER TEMP. button. (refer to page 14)
  • The temperature of the water impacts the effectiveness of all laundry additives and therefore, the cleaning results. We recommend temperatures of:
  • HOT 49\~60°C...(120-140°F) White items, diapers, underclothing and heavily soiled, colorfast items.
  • WARM 29\~40°C...(85-105°F) Most items
  • COLD* 18\~24°C...(65-75°F) Only very bright colors with light soil.
  • When washing in COLD water additional steps may be needed:
  • Adjust Detergent amount and pre-dissolve Detergent in WARM water
  • Pretreat spots and stains
  • Soak heavily soiled items
  • Use appropriate bleach
    * Temperature below 18°C... (65°F) will not activate laundry additives and may cause lint, residue, poor cleaning, etc. In addition, Detergent manufactures and care labels define COLD water as 26\~29°C... (80-85°F). If the temperature of the water in the tub is too cold for your hands, the Detergent will not activate and clean effectively.

NOTE

If iron is present in the water the clothes may become an all-over yellow or they may be stained with brown or orange spots or streaks. Iron is not always visible. Installation of water softener or an iron filter may be necessary for severe cases.

Using Detergent

Detergent

Follow the Detergent package directions. Using too little Detergent is a common cause of laundry problems. Use more Detergent if you have hard water, large loads, greasy or oily soils or lower Water Temperature.

Choosing the right Detergent

We recommend the use of domestic Detergent, (powder, liquid or concentrated). Soap flakes or granulated soap powders should not be used in your washing machine. When washing woolens remember to use Detergent suitable for washing woolens.

Using Detergent

How much Detergent

When you select a wash program the WATER LEVEL and the amount of Detergent (to be used) will be shown on the control panel. The amount of a cup in the diagram is about 40g for concentrated Detergent. The correct amount of Detergent will vary depending on the amount of soil in your clothes (Jeans and work clothes may need more Detergent, while bath towels usually need less.).

For liquid and concentrated Detergents, follow the recommendations of the Detergent manufacturer.

Note: To check you are using the correct amount of Detergent, lift the lid of your machine about half-way through the wash. There should be a thin layer of foam over the surface of the water. Lots of foam may look good, but it does not contribute to cleaning your clothes. No foam means not enough Detergent has been used; soil and lint can settle back on the clothes or the washing machine. If excess Detergent is used, the rinse will not be as clean and efficient. Also, it could cause environmental pollution, so use it accordingly.

Adding the Detergent

Open the Detergent dispenser and deposit the appropriate amount of Detergent where you deposit the Detergent Powder Detergent dispenser.

Some Detergents MUST be fully dissolved before adding to your machine to get the best wash results.

Check the instructions on the Detergent packet.

If you use powdered Detergent it is essential that the required amount be fully dissolved in very HOT water before being added to WARM or HOT water for the actual wash.

Pre-dissolving Detergent in WARM water when washing in COLD water can improve its performance.

Note : Using Liquid detergent

  • Dilute Liquid detergent with water and pour into the tub, start the cycle.
  • Delay wash course is not available if you use liquid detergent.

LG WFT14C65EF - Powder Detergent / Fabric Softener dispenser. - 2

Attention

Using liquid detergent without diluting, or leaving laundry for a long time after pouring diluted liquid detergent into the tub might cause damage, bleaching or discoloration of cloth.

Using Liquid Bleach

  • Check clothing care label for special instructions and separate the laundry to be bleached
    • Dilute liquid chlorine bleach.
  • Measure the recommended amount of liquid bleach carefully following instructions on the bottle.
  • Before starting the washer, pour measured amount of bleach directly into bleach dispenser. Avoid splashing or overfilling. Powdered bleach should be mixed with water before pouring.

NOTE

■ Never pour undiluted liquid bleach directly onto clothes or into the wash basket. This may cause change of color or damage the laundry.
■ Do not pour powdered bleach into bleach dispenser

LG WFT14C65EF - NOTE - 1

se of Water, Detergent, Bleach and Softener

Using Fabric Softener

Available Fabric Softener Type

  • Do not use concentrated fabric softener. This may cause some problems in automatic dispensing.
  • For more details refer to the softener products instructions for use.

Depositing Fabric Softener

  • Don't use softener with detergent. Use softener in last rinse water
  • When using dispenser, dilute softener (30ml) with fresh water (30ml)
  • When filling dispenser, do not splash or overfill. It may stain clothes.
  • Never pour fabric softener directly on clothes. It may stain them
  • If spotting occurs, wet and rub with hand dishwashing liquid (or mild bar soap) and rewash.

Powder Detergent / Fabric Softener dispenser.
Where you deposit the softener *If the softener is over filled, it can overflow. Fabric Softener Cap Limit Line Depositing softener don't fill it above the limit line.

NOTE

Fabric Softener will be inserted automatically during the final rinse and the machine gives on alarm sound. When water pressure is low, the softener may have to be inserted manually.

Scrud(Waxy Build up)

Scrud is the name given to the waxy build-up that can occur within any washer when the fabric softener comes into contact with Detergent. This build-up is not brought about by a fault in the machine.

If scrud is allowed to build-up in the machine it can result in stains on your clothes or an unpleasant smell in your washer.

If you wish to use fabric softener we recommend

• Using fabric softener sparingly.
- When filling the dispenser, do not splash or overfill.
- Clean dispenser as soon as the cycle is finished.
- Clean your machine regularly. (refer to page 21 or 32)
- Cold water washing increases the chance of this build-up occurring. We recommend a regular WARM or HOT wash e.g. every 5th wash should be at least a warm one.
- Fabric softener of thinner consistency is less likely to leave residue on the dispenser and contribute to a build-up.

WARNING

■ Do not use or mix liquid chlorine bleach with other household chemicals such as toilet cleaners, rust removers, acid or products containing ammonia. These mixtures can produce dangerous fumes which can cause serious injury or death.
■ To reduce the risk of fire or serious injury to persons or property, comply with the basic warnings listed below:

  • Read and comply with all instructions on stain removal products.
  • Keep stain removal products in their original labeled containers and out of children's reach.
    • Thoroughly wash any utensil used.
  • Do not combine stain removal products, especially ammonia and chlorine bleach. Dangerous fumes may result.
  • Never wash items which have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted with gasoline, dry cleaning solvents or other flammable or explosive substances because they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
  • Never use highly flammable solvents, such as gasoline, inside the home. Vapors can explode on contact with flames or sparks.

For successful stain removal:

  • Remove stains promptly.
  • Determine the kind of stain, then follow the recommended treatment in the stain removal chart below.
  • To pretreat stains, use a prewash product, liquid Detergent, or a paste made from granular Detergent and water.
  • Use COLD water on unknown stains because HOT water can set stains.
  • Check care label instructions for treatments to avoid on specific fabrics.
  • Check for colorfastness by testing stain remover on an inside seam.
  • Rinse and wash items after stain removal.

Caution

CAUTION concerning the Power Cord

Most appliances recommend they be placed upon a dedicated circuit; that is, a single outlet circuit which powers only that appliance and has no additional outlets or branch circuits. Check the specification page of this owner's manual to be certain. Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets, extension cords, frayed power cords, or damaged or cracked wire insulation are dangerous. Any of these conditions could result in electric shock or fire. Periodically examine the cord of your appliance, and if its appearance indicates damage or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of the appliance, and have the cord replaced with an exact replacement part by an authorized servicer. Protect the power cord from physical or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted, kinked, pinched, closed in a door, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall outlets, and the point where the cord exits the appliance.

Other Grounding Method

Burying Copper Plate

Connect the Ground Wire to a Ground Copper Plate and bury it more than 75cm in the ground.

Cleaning the Inside of your Washer

If you use fabric softener or do regular COLD water washing, it is very important that you occasionally clean the inside of your washer.

  • Fill your washer with HOT water.
  • Add about two cups of a powdered Detergent that contains phosphate.
  • Let it operate for several minutes.
  • Stop the washer, open the lid and leave it to soak overnight.
    • After soaking, drain the washer and run it through a normal cycle.

Or use TUB CLEAN PROGRAM periodically.

We do not recommend that you wash clothes during this procedure.

Products that might damage your washing machine

  • Concentrated bleaches and diaper sanitizer will cause damage to the paintwork and components of your washer.
  • Hydrocarbon solvents i.e. petrol, paint thinners and lacquer thinners, etc. can dissolve plastic and blister paint (Be careful when washing garments stained with these solvents as they are flammable DO NOT put them in washer or dryer.)
  • Some pretreatment sprays or liquids can damage your washer's control panel.
  • Use of dyes in your washer may cause staining of the plastic components. The dye will not damage the machine but we suggest you thoroughly clean your washer afterwards. We do not recommend the use of dye strippers in your washer.
  • Do not use your washer lid as a work surface.
