This act requires the governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth
defects, or other reproductive harm and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such
substances.
Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon monoxide,
formaldehyde, and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas or LP fuels.
Properly adjusted dryers will minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized
further by properly venting the dryer to the outdoors.
WWARNING:This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or
other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of
electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance must be equipped with a cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by
a qualified electrician. This appliance must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system or an
equipment-grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipmentgrounding terminal or lead on the appliance. Electric shock can result if the dryer is not properly grounded.

tNo other fuel-burning appliance can be installed in the
same closet as a dryer.
Do not operate your dryer at temperatures below 45°F (7°C). At lower temperatures, the dryer might not shut off
at the end of an automatic cycle. This can result in longer drying times. The dryer must not be installed or stored in
an area where it will be exposed to water and/or weather. Check code requirements. Some codes limit, or do not
permit, installation of the dryer in garages, closets, mobile homes or sleeping quarters. Contact your local building
inspector.

this warning can cause serious injury or death.
To ensure that the dryer provides optimal drying
performance, it must be level. To minimize vibration,
noise, and unwanted movement, the floor must be a
perfectly level, solid surface.
NOTE
Adjust the leveling feet only as far as necessary to
level the dryer. Extending the leveling feet more than
necessary can cause the dryer to vibrate.
1. Position the dryer in the final location. Place a level
across the top of the dryer.

t"MMGPVSMFWFMJOHGFFUNVTUSFTUTPMJEMZPOUIFGMPPS
Gently push on the top corners of the dryer to make
sure that the dryer does not rock from corner to corner.
If you are installing the dryer on the optional pedestal,
you must use the leveling feet on the pedestal to
level the dryer. The dryer leveling feet should be fully
retracted.
2. Use an adjustable wrench to turn the leveling feet.
Turn clockwise to raise the dryer or counterclockwise
to lower it. Raise or lower the leveling feet until the
dryer is level from side to side and front to back.
Make sure that all four leveling feet are in firm contact
with the floor.

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 the Installation Test (Duct
Check) on the following page.
Testing Dryer Heating
("4.0%&-4
Close the dryer door, press the ON/OFF button 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.
&-&$53*$.0%&-4
Close the dryer door, press the ON/OFF button 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
inches (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 from front to
back and side to side, and that all four leveling feet are
firmly on the floor.

Sensor Dry Cycles
Sensor Dry cycles utilize LG’s unique dual sensor system to
detect and compare the moisture level in clothes and in the
air and adjust the drying time as needed to ensure superior
results. The dryer automatically sets the dryness level and
temperature at the recommended setting for each cycle.
The estimated time remaining will be shown in the display.
NOTE
To protect your garments not every dryness level,
temperature, or option is available with every cycle.
See the Cycle Guide for details.

The Energy Saver option is turned on by default in the
Normal cycle.
Turn off the Energy Saver option for a faster Normal

Manual Dry Cycles
Use Manual Dry cycles to select a specific amount of

Connectivity Overview
This smart appliance offers options for how you do laundry. Once it is connected to the internet through a home
Wi-Fi network, you can check the progress of a cycle and control the appliance remotely with the LG Smart Laundry
application for your smart phone.
The application can be set up to send push notifications when the cycle is complete or the appliance has problems.
It also provides a list of extra cycles available for download, and helps to troubleshoot problems by recording and
analyzing data from the appliance. The appliance has Smart Grid capability for areas where the utility company has
installed Smart Grid equipment. This feature adjusts the appliance operating times based on when electricity prices
are lower or delays operation when the demand for electricity is high.

Smart Diagnosis™ is a troubleshooting feature
designed to assist, not replace, the traditional method
of troubleshooting through service calls. The
effectiveness of this feature depends upon various
factors, including, but not limited to, the reception
of the cellular phone being used for transmission,
any external noise that may be present during the
transmission, and the acoustics of the room where the
machine is located.
Accordingly, LG does not guarantee that Smart
Diagnosis™ would accurately troubleshoot any given
issue.

ENGLISH
Should you experience any problems with your dryer, it has the capability of transmitting data to your Smart Phone
using the LG Smart Laundry Application or via your telephone to the LG call center.
Smart Diagnosis™ cannot be activated unless your dryer is turned on by pressing the Power button. If your dryer is
unable to turn on, then troubleshooting must be done without using Smart Diagnosis™.
