SPECIAL FEATURES

EASY-TO-USE CONTROL PANEL

Rotate the cycle selector knob to select the desired dry cycle. Add cycle options or adjust settings with the touch of a button.

EASY-ACCESS REVERSIBLE DOOR

The wide-opening door provides easy access for loading and unloading. The door hinge can be reversed to adjust for installation location.

STEAM FUNCTIONS

LG’s steam technology allows you to inject fabrics with a swirling jet of hot steam to refresh clothes, reduce static, and make ironing easier. Simply select the STEAM FRESH™ cycle, or you can add a Steam option to selected cycles.

FLOW SENSE™ DUCT BLOCKAGE SENSING SYSTEM INDICATOR

The FLOW SENSE™ duct blockage sensing system detects and alerts you to blockages in the ductwork that reduce exhaust flow from the dryer. Clean exhaust systems increase efficiency and reduce drying times.

SMARTDIAGNOSIS™

Should you experience any technical difficulty with your dryer, it has the capability of transmitting data via your telephone to the Customer Information Center. The call center agent records the data transmitted from your machine and uses it to analyze the issue, providing a fast and effective diagnosis (refer to page 43).

(306/%*/( */4536$5*0/4

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance must be equipped with a cord having an equipmentgrounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. This appliance must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system or an equipment-grounding conductor must be

run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipmentgrounding terminal or lead on the appliance.

Electric shock can result if the dryer is not properly grounded.

WWARNING

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt that the appliance is properly grounded.

t No other fuel-burning appliance can be installed in the same area

 

as a dryer.

Do not operate your dryer at temperatures below 45°F (7°C). At lower temperatures, the dryer might not shut off at the end of an automatic cycle. This can result in longer drying times. The dryer must not be installed or stored in an area where it will be exposed to water and/or weather. Check code requirements. Some codes limit, or do not permit, installation of the dryer in garages, closets, mobile homes or sleeping quarters. Contact your local building inspector.

Testing dryer heating

("4 .0%&-4

Close the dryer door, press the ON/OFF button to turn the dryer on, and start the dryer on a heat setting. When the dryer starts, the igniter should ignite the main burner.

NOTE

If all air is not purged from the gas line, the gas igniter may turn off before the main burner ignites. If this happens, the igniter will reattempt gas ignition after approximately two minutes.

&-&$53*$ .0%&-4

Close the dryer door, press the ON/OFF button to turn the dryer on, and start the dryer on a heat setting. The exhaust air should be warm after the dryer has been operating for 3 minutes.

Checking airflow

Effective dryer operation requires proper airflow.

The adequacy of the airflow can be measured by evaluating the static pressure. Static pressure in the exhaust duct can be measured with a manometer, placed on the exhaust duct

If the test displays four bars, check the exhaust system for restrictions and damage. Repair or replace the exhaust system as needed.

NOTE

When the dryer is first installed, this test should be performed to alert you to any existing problems with the exhaust duct in your home. However, since the test performed during normal operation provides more accurate information on the condition of the exhaust duct than does the installation test, the number of bars displayed during the two tests may not be the same.

Do not interrupt the test cycle, as this could result in the wrong results.

Even if no bars are displayed during the test cycle, some restrictions may still be present in the exhaust system. Refer to the 7FOUJOH UIF ESZFS section of this manual for complete exhaust system and venting requirements.
