Ange, I just looked at it. It's a model that shows up when sorting LG frontloaders by newest. I'll give you a hint. The Normal cycle is code word for most energy efficient and is what the machine was judged on to meet energy star guidelines--meaning least amount of water, coolest water tempes, .. At least you can select the water plus option on that cycle to make sure there's adequate water for washing and rinsing.
I had a set of light colored cotton sheets that I washed and dried and did not know I had accidentally bled on the sheets before they were washed and dried. And one finds that once dried stains are set. but I decided to give my Whirlpool Duet a test. I put the sheet back in the machine set it for sanitary, steam, heaviest soil, prewash, and extra rinse. And used powder versions of Biz and Tide He with Bleach. I was flabberghasted. The stains were gone, even after drying. I also did something similar when a good friend of mine used ne of my good napkins to use as a cleaning mop and was almost black. I washed it with regular whites and it still didn't come clean. Again, I used the same above combination and it was shite again. So you might try that with those expensive dockers, especially if they are a tan or kakhi. Bob
