If you are uncertain whether your proposed installation will comply with these standards, please contact a service and installation professional for assistance.

• A gas dryer must be permanently attached to the floor.
• The electrical connection for an electric dryer must be a 4-wire connection. More detailed information concerning the electrical connection is provided in the section Connecting Electric Dryers.
• To reduce the risk of combustion and fire, the dryer must be vented to the outside.
• DO NOT vent the dryer under a manufactured home or mobile home.
• Electric dryers may be vented to the outside using the back, left, right, or bottom panel.

• Gas dryers may be vented to the outside using the back, left, or bottom panel. Gas dryers may not be vented to the outside using the right side panel because of the burner housing.

• The dryer exhaust duct must be affixed securely to the manufactured or mobile home structure, and the exhaust duct must be made of a material that will resist fire and combustion. It is recommended that you use a rigid or flexible metal duct.

• DO NOT connect the dryer exhaust duct to any other duct, vent, chimney, or other exhaust duct.
• Make sure the dryer has adequate access to outside fresh air to ensure proper operation. The opening for outside fresh air must be at least 25in^2 (163 cm²).
• It is important that the clearance of the duct from any combustible construction be at least 2 in. (5 cm), and when venting the dryer to the outdoors, the dryer can be installed with a clearance of 1 in. (2.5 cm) at the sides and back of the dryer.
• Please be aware that venting materials are not supplied with the dryer. You should obtain the venting materials necessary for proper installation.

FINAL INSTALLATION CHECK

Once you have completed the installation of the dryer and it is in its final location, confirm proper operation with the following tests and Duct Condition Testing on the following page.

Testing Dryer Heating

GAS MODELS

Close the dryer door, press the ON/OFF switch 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.

ELECTRIC MODELS

Close the dryer door, press the ON/OFF switch 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 approximately 2 ft. (60.9 cm) from the dryer. Static pressure in the exhaust duct should not exceed 0.6 in. (1.5 cm). The dryer should be checked while the dryer is running with no load.

Checking Levelness

Once the dryer is in its final location, recheck the dryer to be sure it is level. Make sure it is level front to back and side to side, and that all 4 leveling feet are firmly on the floor.

FLOW CHECK (DUCT CONDITION TEST)

Your dryer features FlowSense ^™ , an innovative sensing system that automatically detects blockages and restrictions in dryer ductwork. Keeping ductwork clean of lint buildup and free of restrictions allows clothes to dry faster and reduces energy use.

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.

To activate the flow check (Duct condition test):

NOTE: Dryer heating test must be performed before proceeding. Then perform the duct condition test below:

1 Press and hold the DAMP DRY BEEP and TEMP. CONTROL buttons at the same time. While holding these buttons, press POWER ON/OFF.

2 The dryer will show InS in the number display to indicate that it is in duct condition testing mode.

Press START/PAUSE. The dryer will run for approximately 2 minutes to test for blockages or restrictions to air flow in the ductwork.

If "YES" is shown in the display, the ductwork is free from blockages or restrictions.

If “no” is shown in the display, the dryer ductwork has a blockage that needs to be removed immediately.

IMPORTANT: Do NOT interrupt the test cycle!

LOADING THE DRYER

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using this appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:

• Check all pockets to make sure that they are empty. Items such as clips, pens, coins, and keys can damage both your dryer and your clothes. Flammable objects such as lighters or matches could ignite, causing a fire.
  Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion, or death.

• Never dry clothes that have been exposed to oil, gasoline, or other flammable substances. Washing clothes will not completely remove oil residues. Failure to obey this warning can result in fire, explosion, or death.

• Combine large and small items in a load.

• Damp clothes will expand as they dry. Do not overload the dryer; clothes require room to tumble dry properly.
• Close zippers, hooks, and drawstrings to prevent these items from snagging or tangling on other clothes.

CHECK THE LINT FILTER BEFORE EVERY LOAD

Always make sure the lint filter is clean before starting a new load; a clogged lint filter will increase drying times.

To clean, pull the lint filter straight up and roll any lint off the filter with your fingers. Do not rinse or wash the filter to remove lint. Push the lint filter firmly back into place. See "Care and Cleaning" for more information.

Always ensure the lint filter is properly installed before running the dryer. Running the dryer with a loose or missing lint filter may damage the dryer and articles in the dryer.

STEAM FUNCTIONS (cont.)

LG's new 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 STEAMFRESH™ cycle, or you can add a Steam option to selected cycles.

Using the STEAMFRESH™ Cycle

STEAMFRESH™ uses the power of steam alone to quickly reduce wrinkles and odor in fabrics. It brings new life to wrinkled clothes that have been stored for an extended time and makes heavily wrinkled clothes easier to iron. STEAMFRESH™ can also be used to help reduce odors in fabrics.

NOTES:

• REDUCE STATIC or EASY IRON options can also be used during the STEAMFRESH™ cycle.
• Depending on the load (quantity of items), you may change the amount of time for the cycle by pressing the MORE TIME or LESS TIME button. The display will show 3, 5, or b/9.3 means 3 or fewer items, 5 is for 4 or 5 items, and b/9 indicates a large load such as a comforter.

To Use the STEAMFRESH™ Cycle:

1 Turn on the dryer and turn the cycle selector knob to select the STEAMFRESH™ cycle.
2 To add an option function, select REDUCE STATIC, EASY IRON, or WRINKLE CARE.
3 Depending on the load (quantity of items), steam time can be changed by pressing the MORE TIME or LESS TIME buttons.
4 Press START/PAUSE button to start the cycle.

To Add STEAM to a Standard Cycle:

1 Turn on the dryer and turn the cycle selector knob to select the desired cycle.
2 Use the cycle setting buttons to adjust the settings for that cycle.
3 Press the Steam option button for the Steam option you would like to add. Then adjust for the load size using the MORE TIME or LESS TIME buttons.
4 Press START/PAUSE button to start the cycle.

Using the Steam Options:

This option injects steam late in the drying cycle to reduce the static electricity caused by dry fabrics rubbing together. Change

the amount of time for the cycle by pressing the MORE TIME or LESS TIME button, depending on the load (quantity of items). The display will show the recommended number of items, such as 7, 9, 11, 14, 16, or 18.

The EASY IRON option provides uniform, properly dampened fabrics for ironing, which can save time and make ironing easier.

Change the amount of time for the cycle by pressing the MORE TIME or LESS TIME button, depending on the load (quantity of items). The display will show the recommended number of items, such as 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5.

The REDUCE STATIC and EASY IRON options can only be used with the HEAVY DUTY, COTTON/TOWELS, NORMAL and PERM. PRESS, DELICATES and TIME DRY cycles.

NOTES:

• When SENSOR DRY is selected with the REDUCE STATIC option, a DRY LEVEL of LESS or DAMP cannot be selected.
• The REDUCE STATIC or EASY IRON option may also be selected during TIME DRY cycles.
• After the Steam option is selected in TIME DRY, the MORE TIME or LESS TIME buttons will change the steam time ONLY.
• After pressing START/PAUSE, the MORE TIME or LESS TIME buttons will be disabled.

Using the STEAMSANITARY™ cycle

New STEAMSANITARY™ cycle is ideal for sanitizing non washable items quickly and easily using the power of steam alone. Recommend to use this cycle for cotton and polyester material. (Do NOT use for urethane foam, Down feathers or delicates items)

STEAM FUNCTIONS (cont.)

WARNING:

• Do not open the dryer door during Steam Cycles. Steam can cause severe burns.
• Do not fill the steam feeder with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances. They give off vapors vapors that could explode.
• Do not drink water from the steam feeder.
• Do not fill the steam feeder with hot water (over 86^ / 30^ ).
• Do not touch the steam nozzle in the drum during or after the STEAM cycle.

IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT STEAM CYCLES:

• Steam may not be clearly visible during the Steam Cycles. This is normal.
• Do not use STEAMFRESH™ with items such as wool, wool balnket, leather jackets, silk, wet clothes, lingerie, foam products, or electric blankets.
• For best results, load articles of similar size and fabric type. Do not overload.
• When the filter/duct is clogged, the Steam option may not have optimal results.
• When the Steam function is operating, the drum will stop to allow steam to stay in the drum.
• The steam feeder must be filled with water up to the MAX line. Otherwise, an Error message will be displayed.

BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE

Your dryer is equipped with an automatic error-monitoring system to detect and diagnose problems at an early stage. If your dryer does not function properly or does not function at all, check the following before you call for service.

Problem Possible Causes Solutions
Dryer will not turn on	Power cord is not properly plugged in.House fuse is blown, circuit breaker has tripped, or power outage has occurred.	Make sure that the plug is plugged securely into a grounded outlet matching the dryer'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.
Dryer does not heat	House fuse is blown, circuit breaker has tripped, or power outage has occurred.Gas supply or service turned off (gas models only).	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.Con rm that the house gas shutoff and the dryer gas shutoff are both fully open.
Greasy or dirty spots on clothes	Fabric softener used incorrectly.Clean and dirty clothes being dried together.Clean and dirty clothes being dried together.	Con rm and follow the instructions provided with your fabric softener.Make sure to use your dryer to dry only clean items, because dirty items can soil clean clothes placed in the same or subsequent loads.Stains on dried clothes are actually stains that weren't removed during the washing process. Make sure that clothes are being completely cleaned according to the instructions for your washer and detergent.
Display shows error code tE1 or tE2	Thermistor is malfunctioning.	Turn off the dryer and call for service.
Lint on clothes	Lint liter not cleaned properly.Laundry not sorted properly.Excess static in clothes.Dryer is overloaded.Tissue, paper, etc., left in pockets.	Make sure the lint liter is cleaned before every load. With some loads that produce high amounts of lint, it may be necessary to clean the 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).See the Excess static in clothes after drying section below.Divide larger loads into smaller loads for drying.Check pockets thoroughly before washing and drying clothes.
Excess static in clothes after drying	Fabric softener not used or used incorrectly.Clothes dried too long (overdried).Drying synthetics, permanent press, or synthetic blends.	Use a fabric softener to reduce static electricity correctly. Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.Overdrying a load of laundry can cause a buildup of static electricity. Adjust settings and use a shorter drying time, or use SENSOR DRY cycles.These materials can cause static buildup. Try using a fabric softener.

BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE (cont.)

Problem Possible Causes Solutions
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 heat setting, the type of heat used (electric, natural, or LP gas), the size of the load, the type of fabrics, the wetness of the clothes, and the condition of the exhaust ducts and lint filter.
Clothes take too long to dry	Load is not properly sorted.Large load of heavy fabrics.Dryer controls are not set properly.Lint filter needs to be cleaned.Exhaust ducts blocked, dirty, or duct run is too long.House fuse is blown, circuit breaker has tripped, or power outage has occurred.Dryer is overloaded.Dryer is underloaded.	Separate heavy items from lightweight items. Larger and heavier items take longer to dry.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.Make sure the lint filter is cleaned before every load. With some loads that produce high amounts of lint, it may be necessary to clean the filter during the cycle.Confirm that the exhaust ductwork is properly configured and free of debris, lint, and obstructions. Make sure that outside wall dampers can open properly and are not blocked, jammed, or damaged.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 larger loads into smaller loads for drying.If you are drying a very small load, add a few extra items to ensure proper tumbling action.
Clothes are wrinkled	Clothes dried too long (overdried).Clothes left in dryer too long after cycle ends.	Overdrying a load of laundry can lead to wrinkled clothes. Try a shorter drying time, and remove items while they still retain a slight amount of moisture.Remove items from the dryer immediately at the end of the cycle. Use the WRINKLE CARE option to continue tumbling clothes at the end of the cycle, for up to 3 hours.
Clothes are shrinking	Garment care instructions are not being followed.	To avoid shrinkage, please carefully follow the fabric care instructions for your garment, because some fabrics will naturally shrink when washed. Other fabrics can be washed but will shrink when dried in a dryer. Use a low or no heat setting and/or the RACK DRY option.
ADD WATER indicator light is on during the drying cycle	Water supply error.	Check steam feeder drawer:(1) Make sure steam feeder is filled with water to MAX line.(2) Make sure steam feeder is seated properly and drawer is fully closed.(3) Turn the dryer off then restart the Steam cycle.Do not use distilled water; the water level sensor in steam generator will not work.Pump not working. Unplug dryer and call for service.
Water drips from nozzle when Steam Cycle starts.	This is normal.	This is steam condensation. The dripping water will stop after a short time.

BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE (cont.)

Problem Possible	Causes Solutions
Steam doesn't generate but no error code is shown.	Water level error.	Unplug dryer and call for service.
Garments still wrinkled after STEAMFRESH^TM .	Too many or too different types of garments in dryer.	Small loads of 1 to 5 items work best.Load fewer garments. Load similar-type garments.
There are no creases left on garment after STEAMFRESH^TM .	The function of this cycle is to remove wrinkles from fabric.	Use an iron to make creases.
Garments have static after REDUCE STATIC.	This is normal.	Depends on individual moisture level in skin.
Garments are too damp or too dry after REDUCE STATIC.	Correct drying options not selected.	Select load weight manually before starting REDUCE STATIC option.
Garments are not uniformly damp after EASY IRON.	This is normal.	Depends on the amount or type of garments.
Water drips from door during Steam Cycle.	This is normal.	This is steam condensation on door surface.
Steam is not visible during Steam Cycle.	This is normal.	Steam vapor is diffi cult to see when the door is closed.
Drum does not turn during Steam Cycle.	This is normal.	The drum is turned off so that the steam vapor remains in the drum.
Cannot see steam vapor at the beginning of cycle.	This is normal.	Steam is released at different stages of the cycle for each option.
The display shows b/g.	MORE TIME button pressed.	Pressing the MORE TIME button several times will set the cycle for a large load such as a comforter.
Odors remain in clothing after STEAMFRESH^TM .	STEAMFRESH ^® did not remove odor completely.	Fabrics containing strong odors should be washed in a normal cycle.
