Ultra Big Capacity Drum
The LG Dryer has a large capacity.
Reduced drying time
Drying time is reduced by the use of an efficient air flow system and
an optimized heater.
Innovative Noise Reduction
The optimized design of the air flow system and the vibration reduction
technology helps to reduce noise.
Ease of Use
The electronic control has a large, easy to read LED display.
Your dryer provides sensor drying and manual drying programs.
Sensor Dry Dryer electronically senses laundry moisture level and automatically determines operation time
based on the dryness of the load and the selected program. The control will change the estimated time
remaining if it senses a large change in the time needed to complete the cycle. These large increases or
decreases in the time display are normal, and do not indicate a product malfunction.
Manual Dry Manual Dry allows you to set the desired dry time manually. Certain types of loads, such as
large and/or bulky loads, may not dry properly using Sensor Dry. These loads should be dried using the
Manual Dry feature to ensure complete drying.

Is the fuse blown, or is the circuit
breaker tripped
?
Confirm that the dryer’s plug is securely and completely pushed into the
power outlet
Check your home’s or laundry room’s fuse box

fuse or reset the circuit breaker.
2. Problem: My dryer doesn’t heat
Question What to Do
Is the fuse blown, or is the circuit
breaker tripped
?
If the fuse is blown or the circuit breaker tripped, the dryer might tumble but not heat.
Check your home’s or laundry room’s fuse box/circuit breaker box and replace the
fuse or reset the circuit breaker.
3. Problem: There are greasy spots on my clothes
Question What to Do
Did you follow the instructions on your
fabric softener product
?
Are you drying clean and dirty clothes
together
?
Were your clothes entirely clean
?
Check and follow the instructions provided with your fabric softener product.
Make sure to use your dryer to dry only clean items, because dirty items can soil clean
clothes placed in the same load or later placed in the dryer drum.
Stains on dried clothes are actually stains that weren’t removed during the washing
process. Make sure you are following your washing instructions and that the clothes
are being completely cleaned.

4. Problem: There is lint on my clothes
Question What to Do
Is your lint filter full
?
Did you properly sort your load of
laundry
?
Do your clothes have excess static
electricity
?
Did you overload your dryer
?
Did you place any paper, tissue, or
other similar material in the load
?
Please refer to the manual section on cleaning the lint filter, and please confirm that
the lint filter is clean. It is important that the lint filter is clean before each new load of
laundry.
In order to reduce the amount of lint in a load of laundry, sort lint producers (like a
fuzzy white cotton towel) separately from clothes that might catch lint (such as a pair
of black linen pants).
See comments below under item 5, There is static in my clothes after drying.
Divide your larger load into smaller loads.
Sometimes a person might forget to take a piece of paper or a tissue out of the pocket
of a pair of pants, and this paper, tissue, or similar material can cause excess lint in a
load of laundry. Confirm that the pockets of pants, shirts, and other articles of clothing
are empty before washing and drying.
5. Problem: There is static in my clothes after drying
Question What to Do
Did you use fabric softener
?
Did you over dry the load of laundry
?
Are you drying synthetic,
permanent press and blends
?
Try using a fabric softener to reduce static electricity.
Overdrying a load of laundry can cause a build up of static electricity. Try
using a fabric softener or adjust your settings and use a shorter drying time.
These materials can cause static to build up in a load of dried clothes. Try
using a fabric softener.
6. Problem: The drying time is not consistent
Question What to Do
Are you using consistent heat settings
and consistent load sizes
?
The drying time for a load will vary depending on several factors including, but not
limited to, the size of the load, the type of fabrics , the wetness of the clothes, the
condition of the lint filter and the rating of the power source (i.e. 208V will take
longer than 240V).

7. Problem: It takes too long for my clothes to dry
Question What to Do
8. Problem: My clothes are wrinkled
Question What to Do
Are you overdrying your laundry
?
Are you removing your laundry from
the dryer soon after the drying cycle is
complete
?
Overdrying a load of laundry can lead to wrinkled clothes. Try a shorter drying
time, and remove items while they still retain a slight amount of moisture.
Remove your laundry from the dryer after the drying cycle ends and either hang or
fold the items.
9. Problem: My clothes are shrinking
Question What to Do
Are you following the care instructions
for your garment
?
To avoid shrinkage, carefully follow the care and use instructions for your garment,
because some fabrics will naturally shrink when washed. Other fabrics can be washed
but will shrink when dried in a dryer.
Separate heavy weight items from light weight items when creating loads.
Heavy fabrics take longer to dry because they tend to retain more moisture.
To help reduce and maintain more consistent drying times for large and heavy fabrics,
separate these items into smaller loads of a consistent size.
Use the appropriate control settings for the type of load you are drying.
Please confirm that the lint filter is clean prior to each new load of laundry.
Check your home’s or laundry room’s fuse box/circuit breaker box and replace the fuse
or reset the circuit breaker.
Divide your larger load into a number of smaller loads.
If you are only drying a handful of items, add a few extra pieces to help ensure
proper tumbling action.
Did you properly sort your loads of
laundry
?
Are you drying large loads of heavy
fabrics
?
Are the dryer controls properly set
?
Is the lint filter clean before each new
load of laundry
?
Is the fuse blown, or is the circuit
breaker tripped
?
Did you overload your dryer
