Water Circulation And Steam - LG WM3001HRA Training Manual

TRAINING MANUAL
The recirculation pump circulates the water during most of the cycle. During the WASH
cycle, it runs continuously for the first 3 minutes and then intermittently throughout the
cycle. During the RINSE cycle, it runs continuously as soon as the appropriate amount of
rinse water has been added. This recirculated water enters the drum at the top of the
door at a small shower head. This spray not only keeps the window and gasket clean, it
allows the clothes to be soaked with detergent or rinse water more quickly and can be
used to control an oversudsing event.

WATER CIRCULATION and STEAM

Page 12
The recirculation pump is separate from
the drain pump, but they are attached
to opposite sides of the filter housing.
The steam is not pumped; it comes into
the washer drum under its own
pressure. When steam or the sanitary
cycle is used, the door will remain
locked until the laundry has cooled to a
safe temperature.
The pumps and filter are located at the
bottom left front corner. The filter can
be unscrewed, cleaned, and replaced.
Use the small drain hose to evacuate
the water remaining in the bottom of
the tub before removing the filter.
The drain pump is on the left and
exhausts the water via the gray
corrugated hose.
The recirculating pump is on the right
and recirculates water from the sump to
the shower spray at the top of the door
gasket via the smaller black hose.
The filter is not a lint filter in the usual
sense of the term. Its function is to keep
debris out of the pump impellers.
