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.

What are Sensor Dry and Manual Dry?

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.

• When you use the Tag On function, position your smart phone so that the NFC antenna on the back of your smart phone matches the position of the Tag On icon on the appliance.
