[LG Dryer] I want to know what drying cycle to choose in relation to the fabric of various laundry loads.

Troubleshooting

You can avoid damaging fabrics by using the appropriate cycle for various types of fabric.
(The cycle may vary depending on the model.)

Try this

Sensor Dry cycle

➔ A cycle that measures the moisture in the laundry and measures the machine's temperature and humidity to determine the best drying time and temperature for each particular load of laundry.

1. Normal cycle: general clothes, underwear, cottons, socks, pillow covers, T-shirt

  • Strong: cycle that dries thick clothing
  • Normal+: a cycle that dries laundry even more compared to the Normal cycle
  • Normal: a cycle that dries general clothing
  • Weak: a cycle that dries clothing with reduced drying power compared to the Normal cycle in order to reduce shrinkage of clothes or static electricity within the load
  • Wool: a cycle that dries clothes and retains just enough moisture in the fabric suitable for ironing

2. Sterilize: cotton clothing, underwear

  • A cycle that hygienically dries cotton clothing

3. Speed Wash: synthetic clothing

  • A cycle that dries linen and synthetic clothing that require fast drying

4. Towel: face towels, bath towels

  • A cycle that dries regular face towels

5. Shirts: shirts, synthetic pants, underwear, blouses

  • Normal: a cycle that dries clothes to a level that is comfortable to wear right away
  • Weak: a cycle that dries clothing with reduced drying power compared to the Normal cycle in order to reduce shrinkage of clothes or static electricity within the load

6. Hand/Wool: wool

  • A cycle that dries wool and wool blend garments

7. Sportswear: leisurewear

  • A cycle that dries leisure clothing, such as sportswear

8. Duvet: duvets, bedding, sheets

  • A cycle that dries duvets, blankets, etc. (Be sure to check for suitable drying methods according to the handling label on textile items before use.)

9. Brushing Bedding Off: duvets, blankets

  • A cycle that removes dust from bedding such as duvets or blankets using only blown air without using water

10. Outdoor Refresh: outdoor wear

  • A cycle that restores the degraded water repellency of outdoor clothing

11. Puffer Jacket Refresh: puffer jackets

  • A cycle that enhances the volume of seasonal clothing, such as puffer jackets, using only blown air without using water

Timed Drying cycle

➔ This is a manual drying cycle in which the user sets and dries the clothes for a desired amount of time.

It operates for a set time regardless of the degree of dampness in the clothes or the temperature or humidity inside the machine.

1. Cool Air: all laundry types

  • A cycle that blows air without heat

2. Warm Air: bath towels, bathrobes

  • A cycle that dries a small amount of fabric or when additional drying is required after the Normal drying cycle
Wait! Here are more tips
In cold winters, the average drying time for each cycle displayed on the screen after choosing a drying course may increase depending on the temperature around the product.
It is advised to dry at 50 to 60 percent of the maximum capacity for optimal drying.
For large items, it is recommended that you dry one item at a time.
