Please pardon us, but we will need some clarification about what a "clean out" is. The ENERGY STAR® Certified LG 5.3 cu. ft. Mega Capacity Smart Top Load Washer with 4-Way® Agitator, EasyUnload™ & AI Sensing, Model # WT8405CW, features a dedicated Tub Clean cycle, which LG highly recommends you run as a monthly maintenance cycle to eliminate detergent residue, prevent hard water scale, and keep the drum smelling fresh. Is that what you are referring to as a 'clean out'?...^Ivan.
The automatic water level adjustment on the Energy Star® Certified LG 5.5 cu. Ft. SMART Top Load Washer in Matte Black with Impeller, Easy Unload tub, and TurboWash3D™ Technology, Model # WT8400CB, can be overridden and customized using the built-in overrides. It defaults to using AI sensing to weigh your laundry and automatically adjust to the lowest optimal water level, so if you want to bypass this and add more water, force the washing machine to ignore the auto-sensor and fill the tub completely, you can use the Deep Fill button. Before starting, select your wash cycle, then press the Deep Fill button at the start of the cycle to fill the tub to its maximum capacity. This override is a one-time setting. Once the load is complete, the washer will automatically revert back to its high-efficiency auto-sensing mode for the next wash. If the machine is already running and you notice it didn't add enough water, you cannot adjust the buttons while the wash cycle is running. To add water mid-cycle, you can press the Start/Pause button to pause the operation, press the Deep Fill button, then press tart/Pause again to resume the cycle. The Tub Clean or Eco-conscious modes have built-in efficiency limits and may restrict you from using the override functions...^Ivan.

While the Normal cycle for the ENERGY STAR® Certified LG defaults to a warm water setting to optimize standard detergent performance, the machine allows you to manually override it, and you can absolutely run a cold wash for the Normal cycle. To change the temperature on the machine's control panel, turn the Dial-A-Cycle knob to select the Normal cycle after turning the washer on. You must select the cycle first. If you press the temperature button before choosing the cycle, the washer will automatically overwrite your choice and revert to its warm default. Press the Temp. button on the touch panel repeatedly until Cold or Tap Cold illuminates, then press the Start/Pause button to begin the cycle. This model features multiple temperature tiers. Selecting Cold may occasionally mix in microscopic flashes of warm water to keep the tub stable around 65°F–75°F (ensuring your detergent activates properly). Selecting Tap Cold uses 100% unheated water straight from your home's cold intake valve. When you manually drop the temperature down to cold, the washer's built-in intelligence may automatically extend the wash cycle time by 5 to 10 minutes. The machine adds extra agitation time to compensate for the fact that stains lift more slowly in cold water than they do in warm water. The machine is legally required to reset itself to factory efficiency baselines every time it powers down. You will need to press the Temp. button to select cold every time you start a new load of laundry...^Ivan.
What is your question about direct drive with regard to the Energy Star® Certified LG 5.5 cu. Ft. SMART Top Load Washer in Matte Black with Impeller, Easy Unload, and TurboWash3D™ Technology, Model # WT8400CB?...^Ivan.
The Energy Star® Certified LG 5.5 cu. Ft. SMART Top Load Washer in Matte Black with Impeller, Easy Unload, and TurboWash3D™ Technology, Model # WT8400CB, will work perfectly normally without a Wi-Fi connection. Wi-Fi functionality is completely optional on this model. You can access all core washing features, change settings, select cycles, and fully manage your laundry directly from the machine's physical control panel without ever connecting it to the internet...^Ivan.
