What To Know

  • The LG washer dryer combo will monitor the moisture levels in your clothes and automatically adjust the drying time as needed.
  • Ensure that the lint filter is clean, the dryer vent is unobstructed, and the correct drying cycle is selected.
  • Can I dry only a few items in my LG washer dryer combo.

LG washer dryer combos offer the convenience of washing and drying your clothes in one appliance. However, if you only need to dry your clothes, following these simple steps will ensure optimal results:

1. Load Your Laundry

Open the dryer door and load your clothes loosely into the drum. Avoid overloading, as this can restrict airflow and prevent proper drying.

2. Select the Drying Cycle

Use the control panel to select the appropriate drying cycle for your fabric type. Common options include:

  • Normal: Suitable for most fabrics
  • Delicates: For delicate fabrics that require gentle drying
  • Heavy Duty: For thick or heavy fabrics that need longer drying times

3. Adjust the Drying Settings

Depending on your LG washer dryer combo model, you may have additional drying settings to customize:

  • Temperature: Choose between low, medium, or high heat settings based on the fabric’s care instructions.
  • Dryness Level: Select the desired dryness level (e.g., dry, damp, or extra dry).
  • Wrinkle Care: Enable this option to reduce wrinkles during the drying cycle.

4. Start the Drying Cycle

Press the “Start” button to begin the drying cycle. The estimated drying time will be displayed on the control panel.

5. Monitor the Drying Progress

The LG washer dryer combo will monitor the moisture levels in your clothes and automatically adjust the drying time as needed. You can pause the cycle at any time to check the dryness level.

6. Unload the Dry Clothes

Once the drying cycle is complete, open the dryer door and unload your clothes promptly. This will prevent wrinkles and ensure they remain fresh.

7. Clean the Lint Filter

After each drying cycle, clean the lint filter located inside the dryer door. This will prevent lint buildup and improve drying efficiency.

Troubleshooting Issues

If you encounter any issues while drying with your LG washer dryer combo, refer to the following troubleshooting tips:

  • Clothes are not drying properly: Ensure that the lint filter is clean, the dryer vent is unobstructed, and the correct drying cycle is selected.
  • Clothes are too wrinkled: Enable the Wrinkle Care option during the drying cycle.
  • Drying cycle takes too long: The dryer may be overloaded or the moisture sensors are malfunctioning. Contact LG support for assistance.
