The process to disable the child lock on an LG washer may vary depending on the model and the specific control panel design. Here are the general steps to turn off the child lock on an LG washer:
Identify Child Lock Button: Look for a button or an indicator on the washer's control panel labeled "Child Lock" or "Control Lock." It is usually a small icon of a lock with a child's face.
Press and Hold Child Lock Button: Press and hold the "Child Lock" button for approximately 3 to 5 seconds. Some models may require a longer press, so try holding it for a bit longer if it doesn't deactivate right away.
Wait for Confirmation: After holding the button for the required time, the child lock should deactivate. You might see a light or indicator turn off or hear a beep, indicating that the child lock is now off.
Test the Washer: To ensure the child lock is indeed disabled, try operating the washer by selecting a wash cycle and pressing the start button.
If you are still having trouble turning off the child lock, refer to the user manual that came with your LG washer. The manual will have specific instructions for your model, including how to enable and disable the child lock feature. You can also visit LG's official website and search for the user manual for your specific washer model using its model number. The user manual should be available for download in PDF format, providing you with detailed instructions for using the washer and managing its features.
