- DLEX4000B · LG Electric Dryer
Why are some clothes still damp after Sensor Dry?
The load may be too large or too small for the sensor to read correctly. Very large bulky items can also dry unevenly. Use Time Dry for very small loads, pause and rearrange bulky items if needed, or finish damp items with Time Dry after emptying the lint trap
- DLEX4000B · LG Electric Dryer
Why does my dryer start by itself every few minutes?
This is how the Wrinkle Care feature works. The dryer runs briefly every few minutes for up to 3 hours after the cycle finishes to help prevent wrinkles if you do not unload the dryer right away.
- DLEX4000B · LG Electric Dryer
Why does my dryer take a different amount of time for similar loads?
Drying time can vary based on load size, fabric type, how wet the clothes are, and the condition of the lint filter. An unbalanced washer load can also leave clothes wetter and increase drying time.
- DLEX4000B · LG Electric Dryer
Why does my dryer take so long to dry clothes?
Poor airflow can increase drying time. A lint filter that is full of lint or clogged with fabric softener sheet residue can reduce airflow and make drying take much longer. The manual also refers you to the troubleshooting charts for more tips.
- WM4000HBA · LG Front Load Washer
Why does my washer thump during a cycle?
Heavy wash loads can produce a thumping sound, and an out-of-balance load can also cause it. If the sound continues, stop the washer and redistribute the load; you can pause the cycle and do this after the door unlocks.
- WM4000HBA · LG Front Load Washer
Why does the estimated time sometimes change after I start a cycle?
After you press Start/Pause, the washer measures the load size, so the estimated time may change once load sensing is complete.
- WM4000HBA · LG Front Load Washer
Why is detergent not dispensing completely?
Common causes are putting detergent in the wrong compartment, not closing the dispenser drawer fully, using too much detergent, low water supply, or normal residue buildup in the dispenser.
- DLEX4000B · LG Electric Dryer
Why should I clean the lint filter before every load?
A clogged lint filter increases drying time. The filter should be cleaned and reinstalled firmly before starting the dryer.
- DLEX4000B · LG Electric Dryer
Why won’t the dryer turn on?
The manual lists a blown house fuse, a tripped circuit breaker, or a power outage as possible causes. Reset the breaker or replace the fuse. Do not increase fuse capacity. If the problem is a circuit overload, have it corrected by a qualified electrician.
- WM4000HBA · LG Front Load Washer
Why won’t the washer let me choose a temperature, spin speed, or option I want?
Not every temperature, spin speed, soil level, or option is available on every cycle. If the setting is not allowed, the washer sounds twice and the LED does not light.
