| 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. | |
| 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. |
Performance
| 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.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. 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. | ||
| 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. | ||
| 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 | |
| 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 Drying 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 Drying programme to finish drying the item(s). | |
Wi-Fi
| Symptoms Possible Cause & Solution | |
| Your home appliance and smartphone is not connected to the Wi-Fi network. | The password for the Wi-Fi that you are trying to connect to is incorrect.· Find the Wi-Fi network connected to your smartphone and remove it, then register your appliance on LG ThinQ. |
| Mobile data for your smartphone is turned on.· Turn off the Mobile data of your smartphone and register the appliance using the Wi-Fi network. | |
| The wireless network name (SSID) is set incorrectly.· The wireless network name (SSID) should be a combination of English letters and numbers. (Do not use special characters.) | |
| The router frequency is not 2.4 GHz.· 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. | |
| The distance between the appliance and the router is too far.· 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. | |
