[LG Air Conditioner Feature] [System] What is the UVnano Function?

Troubleshooting

The UVnano function uses a UV LED to shine on the indoor unit’s fan, helping to inhibit the growth of bacteria.
This sterilization feature is available only on certain models and can be turned on or off using the remote control.
It can also operate together with the AI Dry function.

What does the UVnano function do?

  • While the fan is running, the UV LED works to reduce bacterial growth on the fan’s surface.
  • The UVnano function automatically stops when the product is powered off.
  • If the AI Dry function is activated, the UV LED will operate at the same time AI Dry begins.

  • If the same issue occurs after unplugging and reconnecting the power cord, please contact the LG Electronics Service Center.
  • This feature is only available on certain models, so please check your product specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  • Q. Is it safe to keep the UVnano function on all day?

    A. Yes. The UVnano function only operates while the indoor fan is running, so it is safe for extended use. However, you can turn it off when not needed to save energy.

  • Q. If the UVnano function stops working, will the air conditioner stop too?

    A. No. Even if the UVnano function fails, cooling and heating will still work normally. Only the sterilization feature will be affected.
