Environmental and Economical Tips

CARING FOR THE ENVIRONMENT

Environmental and Economical Tips

Energy consumption

• The appliance performs best at a room temperature of 23 ℃.

• A high atmospheric temperature and a small room may both increase

drying time as well as energy consumption.

• Evenly loading laundry up to the capacity indicated by the

manufacturer for the respective programmes will contribute to

energy savings.

• Do not load soaking wet clothes into the appliance. It will cause an

increasing of drying time and energy consumption. Make sure that

the clothes are spun thoroughly before loading.

• If the clothes are not spun at a high speed during washing, energy

consumption and drying times will increase. Large bed sheets or quilt

covers may not dry evenly due to uneven airflow should they become

rolled up. They may require removal and reloading mid cycle to

ensure proper drying.

• Open the door and ensure the lint filter is clean. When the filter is full

with lint, drying times will be longer than usual.

Environmental and Economical Tips

drying time to be extended and the

time remaining in the display to pause

during active drying until the actual

time remaining matches the time

displayed.

• Make sure to empty all pockets. Items

such as nails, hair clips, matches, pens,

coins and keys can damage both your

appliance and clothes.

• Remove loose belts and close zippers,

hooks and strings to make sure that

these items do not snag other clothes.

Sorting the Clothes

Clothes have their own fabric care labels,

so drying according to the fabric care

label is recommended.

Sort the clothes into size and type of

fabric and then prepare the clothes

according to the symbols on the fabric

care labels.

Woollens

• Dry woollens on the

Wool

programme.

Be sure to follow fabric care label

symbols first. Wool may not be

completely dried from the cycle, so do

not repeat drying. Pull woollens to

their original shape and dry them flat.

Woven and Loopknit Materials

• Some woven and loopknit materials

may shrink, depending on quality.

No-Iron and Synthetics

• Do not overload the appliance. Take

out no-iron items as soon as the

appliance stops to reduce creases.

error

The appliance is being operated without the Inner Service

cover.

• Open the

Outer Service Cover

and assemble the

Inner

Service Cover

Reinstall the filter. The lint filter is not in the appliance.

• Insert the lint filter.

Symptoms Possible Cause & Solution

Appliance will not

turn on.

Power cord is not properly plugged in.

• Make sure that the power plug is securely plugged into a

grounded outlet matching the appliance's rating plate.

House fuse is blown, circuit breaker has tripped, or power

outage has occurred.

• 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.

Appliance does

not heat.

House fuse is blown, circuit breaker has tripped, or power

outage has occurred.

• 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.

Water leaks. The water container hose or the optional drain hose is not

connected correctly.

• Connect the water container hose or the optional drain

hose correctly.

The door is closed while clothes or foreign substance is

caught in the door.

• Check if clothes or foreign substance is caught in the door

before using the appliance. If water leaks continuously,

contact the LG Electronics Customer Information Centre.

Symptoms Possible Cause & Solution

Before Calling for Service

Performance

Appliance runs

and pauses by

itself after the

drying cycle

finishes.

This is how the Anti Crease option works.

• Make sure that the

Anti Crease

option has been set. The

option is designed to prevent creases that are formed when

the clothes are not unloaded promptly after the drying

cycle. When the option is set, the appliance runs for 10

seconds and pauses for 5 minutes. The option is works for

up to 2 hours.

Symptoms Possible Cause & Solution

Clothes take too

long to dry.

Load is not properly sorted.

• 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.

Large load of heavy fabrics.

• 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.

Appliance controls are not set properly.

• 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.

Lint filter needs to be cleaned.

• The appliance displays a filter cleaning message before and

after the cycle operation. “Clean the filter to start the cycle”,

“Clean inner and outer filters to start cycle”

• 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.

Symptoms Possible Cause & Solution

Before Calling for Service

Clothes take too

long to dry.

House fuse is blown, circuit breaker has tripped, or power

outage has occurred.

• 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.

Appliance is overloaded.

• Divide extra large loads into smaller loads for better drying

performance and efficiency.

Appliance is underloaded.

• 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 Timed Drying programmes or

add some extra wet clothes to the load.

Drying time is not

consistent.

Heat settings, load size, or dampness of clothing is not

consistent.

• 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.

Greasy or dirty

spots are left on

clothes.

Fabric softener is used incorrectly.

• When washing clothes that are to be dried in the appliance,

use the correct amount of fabric softener as recommended

by the manufacturer of the fabric softener.

Clean and dirty clothes are being dried together.

• Use the appliance to dry only clean items. Soil from dirty

clothes can transfer to the clean clothes in the same or later

loads.

Symptoms Possible Cause & Solution

Before Calling for Service

Greasy or dirty

spots are left on

clothes.

Clothes were not properly cleaned or rinsed before being

placed in the appliance.

• 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 are

wrinkled.

Clothes have dried too long (overdried).

• Over drying a load of clothes can lead to wrinkled clothes.

Try a shorter drying time.

Clothes have been left in the appliance for too long after

cycle ends.

• Use the

Anti Crease

option.

Clothes are

shrinking.

Garment care instructions are not being followed.

• 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.

Lint is left on

clothes.

Lint filter has not been cleaned properly.

• Remove the lint from the lint filter after 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.

Clothes have not been sorted properly.

• 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).

Appliance is overloaded.

• Divide extra large loads into smaller loads for drying.

Tissue, paper, etc., has been left in pockets.

• Check pockets thoroughly before drying clothes.

Symptoms Possible Cause & Solution

Before Calling for Service

Odours

Excess static in

clothes after

drying.

Clothes have dried for too long (overdried).

• Overdrying a load of clothes can cause a buildup of static

electricity. Adjust settings and use a shorter drying time, or

use Sensor Dry programmes.

Drying synthetics, permanent press, or synthetic blends.

• These fabrics are naturally more prone to static buildup. Try

using fabric softener, or use shorter Timed Drying time

settings.

Clothes have

damp spots after a

Sensor Dry

programme.

Very large load or very small load. Single large item such

as a blanket or comforter.

• If items are too tightly packed or too sparse the sensor may

have trouble reading the dryness level of the load. Use a

Timed 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 filter, then set a

Timed Dry

programme to finish drying the item(s).

Symptoms Possible Cause & Solution

The appliance has

an odour.

Are you using the appliance for the first time?

• The smell is caused by rubber material that is attached to

the appliance inside. This kind of smell is a rubber's own

smell and disappears automatically after using the

appliance several times.

Symptoms Possible Cause & Solution

Before Calling for Service

Wi-Fi

The appliance has

an odour.

Do you smell an odour during use?

• Do not exceed the manufacturer's recommended amount

of detergent when washing clothes. Excess detergent can

build up on clothing and cause odours.

• Leaving clothes in the washer or dryer after the cycle ends

can lead to odors. Unload clothing promptly when the cycle

ends.

• Keep lint filters clean. Clogged or dirty lint filters can cause

odors. After cleaning the lint filter, allow it to dry completely

before using it.

• For ventless models, leave the dryer door open after drying,

or use the magnetic door stop (on some models) to keep

the door slightly ajar.

• If the odor is coming from the washer, follow the

instructions in the product manual to clean the washer tub/

drum.

• Periodically run the Drum Care and Condenser Care cycles

following the instructions in the

MAINTENANCE

section.

Symptoms Possible Cause & Solution

Your home

appliance and
