“Sportswear” program in an LG washing machine

Sportswear program in the LG washing machine The functional “filling” of washing machines, even of the same brand, can vary significantly depending on the model. Of course, standard programs, for example, “Cotton”, “Wool” and “Children’s clothing” are present on every machine, but special modes “Sportswear” and “Dark fabrics” are not available everywhere. And it is precisely these special algorithms that raise the most questions.

The “Sportswear” mode in the LG washing machine is designed to care for items made from high-tech materials. Let us tell you how the machine behaves when this program is launched. Let's look at what settings the laundry is washed at.

Complex “sports” algorithm

High-quality sportswear today is made from innovative materials. Such things are ideal for training - they do not hinder movements, allow the skin to breathe, and do not interfere with sweating. High-tech fabrics are quite vulnerable, so it is important to study the information on the label - it contains the manufacturer's recommendations for caring for the product.

In most cases, manufacturers allow automatic washing of products, but in a special “Sportswear” mode.

When the mode starts, the water in the tank warms up to a temperature of 30°C. The rotation rate of the drum is low; it often stops altogether, simulating soaking. Spin is provided, but is performed at minimum speed - up to 600 rpm. The default duration of the “Sportswear” algorithm is 1 hour 10 minutes, but the time can be adjusted by changing the mode settings.

The duration of the program may vary on different models of LG washing machines.If you need accurate data, check the instructions for the equipment. There is a detailed description of all washing modes.

Basic modes of LG SM

All programs available in the intelligence of the washing machine are registered on the control panel, near the selector. Therefore, choosing the desired mode does not cause difficulties for users. However, before launching the algorithm, it is worth understanding what things it is designed for and what settings it hides behind it.

"Cotton". A universal algorithm activated by users more often than others. It is chosen for the care of cotton fabrics. During the program, the drum rotates quite intensively, due to which even stubborn stains are removed from clothes. The water temperature can be adjusted from cold to 90-95°C. Spin can also be adjusted. The cycle lasts about two hours.
"Cotton Quick." Used in the same cases as the main “cotton” mode, but for linen with low or medium levels of soiling. The water heating temperature is adjusted to a maximum of 60°C, the cycle runs for 1-1.5 hours.
"Quick 30." A short program designed to freshen things up. The cycle is performed for 30 minutes, the water is heated to 30°C. It is important that when starting the high-speed mode, the drum of the machine is no more than half loaded.
"Synthetics". Another universal mode, otherwise it is called “Everyday wash”. Optimal for clothes made of nylon, polyester, acrylic, etc. The water in the tank warms up to 40°C. The cycle takes approximately 1 hour 10 minutes.
"Delicate." The duration of the program is 40 minutes. Suitable for caring for delicate, “capricious” fabrics: satin, satin, lace, viscose, silk.The drum rotates very gently, spinning is performed at minimum, gentle speed. Washing temperature is 30°C.
"Wool". Mode for cleaning natural woolen products and fabrics containing impurities of such fibers. The water is heated to 40°C, spinning is not provided. The duration of the algorithm may vary depending on the LG model, but is usually 50-60 minutes.
"Duvet blanked". Suitable for washing not only bedding, but also outerwear with filling. The water temperature is 40°C, the cycle lasts one and a half hours.
"Baby's clothes." A distinctive feature of the mode is repeated rinsing. Washing takes about two hours, the water is heated to 60°C. The spin speed can be adjusted.

Knowing the settings of each mode, you can ensure the highest quality and gentle washing of any fabric.

In addition to the main algorithms, any LG washing machine also has auxiliary functions. The set of options will depend on the machine model. We will tell you what additions may be present in the machine.

Auxiliary algorithms

Some housewives never use additional functions simply because they do not know what they are intended for. A description of all the main programs and auxiliary algorithms is in the instructions for the washing machine LG. Let's look at some of the slot machines' capabilities.

Biocare. Option to combat complex stains. It starts if there are traces of blood, chocolate stains, or grass on the laundry loaded into the drum.
Steam cleaning. The function is present in machines equipped with a steam generator. Steam is mixed with water, which ensures the destruction of bacteria and allergens from fabric fibers.
Hypoallergenic. This option is designed for allergy sufferers and people with sensitive skin.The algorithm includes several rinsing cycles to completely remove any remaining powder or gel from the fabric.
Night wash. Mode suitable for starting in the evening. The drum rotates smoothly, so the machine operates almost silently.

Each machine has its own functionality. To make the most of the machine’s capabilities, it is better to study all the algorithms recorded in the intellect. Then choosing the optimal mode for washing different fabrics will be very simple.
