Washing Machine Programming Guide

The following document is to be used by Vehicle Leaders and Assistant Vehicle Leaders when setting up a new LG washing machine. For our services, we program the washing machine to use as little water, and take as little time as possible.

All washer heating elements must be disabled to avoid tripping inverter (in all battery powered vehicles)
