Technical Safety for Using the Dryer
•Do not dry unwashed items in the appliance.
•Fabric softeners, or similar products, should be used as specified
by the fabric softener instructions.
•Remove all objects from pockets such as lighters and matches.
•Never stop the appliance before the end of the drying cycle unless
all items are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is
dissipated.
•The appliance is not to be used if industrial chemicals have been
used for cleaning.
•Items such as foam rubber (latex foam), shower caps, waterproof
textiles, rubber backed articles and clothes or pillows fitted with
foam rubber pads should not be dried in the appliance.
•Do not drink the condensed water. Failure to do so may result in
food-borne illnesses.
•The lint trap has to be cleaned frequently.
•Lint must not to be allowed to accumulate around the appliance.
•Do not spray dry cleaning detergent directly onto the appliance or
use the appliance to dry clothes left with dry cleaning detergent.
•Do not dry clothes stained with oil substances. Oil substances
(including edible oils) stained on clothes cannot be completely
removed even after washing with water.
EN
8
Page 9
•The appliance must not be supplied through an external switching
device, such as a timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly
switched on and off by a utility.
•Remove clothes from the product immediately when drying is
complete or the power is turned off during the drying process.
Leaving clothes that has been dried in the appliance unattended
could result in fire. Clothes removed from the appliance after
drying could result in fire. Remove clothes immediately after
drying, and then hang or lay the clothes flat to cool.
•Oil-affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially when
exposed to heat sources such as in a tumble dryer. The items
become warm, causing an oxidation reaction in the oil. Oxidation
create heat. If the heat cannot escape, the items can become hot
enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking or storing oil-affected items
can prevent heat from escaping and so create a fire hazard.
•If it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable or cooking
oil or have been contaminated by hair care products be placed in
a tumble dryer they should first be washed in hot water with extra
detergent – this will reduce, but not eliminate, the hazard.
Disposal
•Before discarding an old appliance, unplug it. Cut off the cable
directly behind the appliance to prevent misuse.
•Dispose of all packaging materials (such as plastic bags and
styrofoam) away from children. The packaging materials can
cause suffocation.
•Remove the door before disposing of or discarding this appliance
to avoid the danger of children or small animals getting trapped
inside.

TROUBLESHOOTING
The appliance is equipped with an automatic error-monitoring system to detect and diagnose
problems at an early stage. If the appliance does not function properly or does not function at all,
check the following before you call for service:
Diagnosing Problems
SymptomsReasonSolution
• Make sure that the plug is securely
plugged into a grounded outlet
matching the appliance’s rating plate.
• Reset circuit breaker or replace fuse.
Do not increase fuse capacity. If the
problem is a circuit overload, have it
corrected by a qualified electrician.
• Reset circuit breaker or replace fuse.
Do not increase fuse capacity. If the
problem is a circuit overload, have it
corrected by a qualified electrician.
• Separate heavy items from lightweight
items. Larger and heavier items take
longer to dry. Light items in a load with
heavy items can fool the sensor
because the light items dry faster.
• 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.
Some loads may require an
adjustment of the dry level setting for
proper drying.
• Remove the lint from the lint filter
before every cycle. With the lint
removed, hold the lint filter up to a
light to see if it is dirty or clogged.
With some loads that produce high
amounts of lint, such as new bath
towels, it may be necessary to pause
the cycle and clean the filter during
the cycle.
Appliance will not
turn on.
Appliance does not
heat.
Clothes take too long
to dry.
Power cord is not properly
plugged in.
House fuse is blown, circuit
breaker has tripped, or power
outage has occurred.
House fuse is blown, circuit
breaker has tripped, or power
outage has occurred.
Load is not properly sorted.
Large load of heavy fabrics.
Appliance controls are not
set properly.
Lint filter needs to be
cleaned.
EN

Page 31
SymptomsReasonSolution
• Reset circuit breaker or replace fuse.
Do not increase fuse capacity. If the
problem is a circuit overload, have it
corrected by a qualified electrician.
• Divide extra large loads into smaller
loads for better drying performance
and efficiency.
• If you are drying a very small load,
add a few extra items to ensure proper
tumbling action. If the load is very
small and you are using Sensor Dry
programmes, the electronic control
cannot properly sense the dryness of
the load and may shut off too soon.
Use Manual Dry programmes or add
some extra wet clothes to the load.
• The drying time for a load will vary
depending on the type of heat used
(electric), the size of the load, the type
of fabrics, the wetness of the clothes,
and lint filter. Even an unbalanced
load in the appliance can cause poor
spinning, resulting in wetter clothes
which will take longer to dry.
• When washing laundry that is to be
dried in the appliance, use the correct
amount of fabric softener as
recommended by the manufacturer of
the fabric softener.
• Use the appliance to dry only clean
items. Soil from dirty clothes can
transfer to the clean clothes in the
same or later loads.
• Stains on dried clothes could be stains
that were not removed during the
washing process. Make sure that
clothes are being completely cleaned
or rinsed according to the instructions
for your washing machine and
detergent. Some difficult soils may
require pre-treating prior to washing.
Clothes take too long
to dry.
Drying time is not
consistent.
Greasy or dirty spots
are left on clothes.
House fuse is blown, circuit
breaker has tripped, or power
outage has occurred.
Appliance is overloaded.
Appliance is underloaded.
Heat settings, load size, or
dampness of clothing is not
consistent.
Fabric softener is used
incorrectly.
Clean and dirty clothes are
being dried together.
Clothes were not properly
cleaned or rinsed before
being placed in the appliance.

SymptomsReasonSolution
• Over drying a load of laundry can lead
to wrinkled clothes. Try a shorter
drying time.
• Use the Anti crease option.
• To avoid shrinking your clothes,
always consult and follow fabric care
instructions. Some fabrics will naturally
shrink when washed. Other fabrics
can be washed but will shrink when
dried in the appliance. Use a low or no
heat setting.
• Remove the lint from the lint filter
before every cycle. With the lint
removed, hold the lint filter up to a
light to see if it is dirty or clogged. If it
looks dirty, follow the cleaning
instructions. With some loads that
produce high amounts of lint, it may
be necessary to clean the lint filter
during the cycle.
• Some fabrics are lint producers (i.e., a
fuzzy white cotton towel) and should
be dried separately from clothes that
are lint trappers (i.e., a pair of black
linen pants).
• Divide extra large loads into smaller
loads for drying.
• Check pockets thoroughly before
drying clothes.
• Overdrying a load of laundry can
cause a buildup of static electricity.
Adjust settings and use a shorter
drying time, or use Sensor Dry
programmes.
• These fabrics are naturally more prone
to static buildup. Try using fabric
softener, or use shorter Manual Dry
time settings.
Clothes are wrinkled.
Clothes are shrinking.
Lint is left on clothes.
Excess static in
clothes after drying.
Clothes have dried too long
(overdried).
Clothes have been left in the
appliance for too long after
cycle ends.
Garment care instructions are
not being followed.
Lint filter has not been
cleaned properly.
Laundry has not been sorted
properly.
Appliance is overloaded.
Tissue, paper, etc., has been
left in pockets.
Clothes have dried for too
long (overdried).
Drying synthetics, permanent
press, or synthetic blends.

SymptomsReasonSolution
Water leaks.
Clothes have damp
spots after a Sensor
Dry programme.
Your home appliance
and smartphone is
not connected to the
Wi-Fi network.
The water container hose or
the drain hose is not
connected correctly.
The door is closed while
laundry or foreign substance
is caught in the door.
Very large load or very small
load. Single large item such
as a blanket or comforter.
The password for the Wi-Fi
that you are trying to connect
to is incorrect.
Mobile data for your
smartphone is turned on.
The wireless network name
(SSID) is set incorrectly.
The router frequency is not
2.4 GHz.
The distance between the
appliance and the router is
too far.
• Connect the water container hose or
the drain hose correctly.
• Check if laundry or foreign substance
is caught in the door before using the
appliance. If water leaks continuously,
contact the LG Electronics Customer
Information Centre.
• If items are too tightly packed or too
sparse the sensor may have trouble
reading the dryness level of the load.
Use a Manual Dry programme for very
small loads.
• Large, bulky items such as blankets or
comforters can sometimes wrap
themselves into a tight ball of fabric.
The outside layers will dry and register
on the sensors, while the inner core
remains damp. When drying a single
bulky item, it may help to pause the
cycle once or twice and rearrange the
item to unwrap and expose any damp
areas.
• To dry a few remaining damp items
from a very large load or a few damp
spots on a large item after a Sensor
Dry programme has completed, empty
the lint trap, then set a Manual Dry
programme to finish drying the item(s).
• Find the Wi-Fi network connected to
your smartphone and remove it, then
register your appliance on LG
SmartThinQ.
• Turn off the Mobile data of your
smartphone and register the appliance
using the Wi-Fi network.
• The wireless network name (SSID)
should be a combination of English
letters and numbers. (Do not use
special characters.)
• Only a 2.4 GHz router frequency is
supported. Set the wireless router to
2.4 GHz and connect the appliance to
the wireless router. To check the router
frequency, check with your Internet
service provider or the router
manufacturer.
• If the distance between the appliance
and the router is too far, the signal
may be weak and the connection may
not be configured correctly. Move the
location of the router so that it is
closer to the appliance.
