Symptoms
Lint is left on clothes.
Excess static in
clothes after drying.
Water leaks.
Clothes have damp
spots after a Sensor
Dry programme.
Reason
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.
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.
Solution
• 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
Timed Drying time settings.
• 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 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 trap, then set a Timed Drying
programme to finish drying the item(s).
