Selected cycle does not use heat.
• Some cycles default to unheated or air drying. Select a cycle that allows heated drying.
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 Center.
This is normal operation for the Wrinkle Care option.
• Check to see if the Wrinkle Care option has been selected. 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 runs for up to 2 hours.
The clothes are dried according to the Dry level or Dry mode setting.
• If the humidity or temperature in the drum reaches the product setting, the dry cycle may
end earlier than the control panel time.
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 and heavy fabrics are loaded.
• 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.
