The demonstration mode serves salespeople when demonstrating these washing machines' features and capabilities in store. You can use it privately if ever you decide to sell yours.

  1. Turn off the washing machine and empty it if needed.

  2. Press down both the SPIN SPEED and SOIL LEVEL buttons at the same time.

  3. Push the Power button while holding the SPIN SPEED and SOIL LEVEL buttons. Release the three buttons after you hear the buzzer ring twice.

  4. Select the START/PAUSE button to enter demonstration mode. If you press the STEAM button before selecting the START/PAUSE button, the machine will enter test mode rather than demonstration mode.

  5. Continue pressing the START/PAUSE button to cycle through the different functions. For example, after the second press, the machine will tumble clockwise, on the third press the washer will begin a low-speed spin, and after the fourth press the high-speed spin will kick in. The washer can demonstrate 14 functions. For a complete list of the functions, refer to the LG Washing Machine Service Manual for models WM3885H_CA & WM3875H_CA.
