[LG Dryer] [Gas type] Drying performance is weak or the dryer is not working well.

Troubleshooting

Try this

Is the laundry wet overall?

➔ Is it a small amount of laundry?

If you put less than 10 towels in, it will assume that there are no clothes and finish drying within 10 minutes of starting.
If you want to dry a small amount, use Timed Drying and dry for about 20 minutes.
If you fill the tub halfway, you can use the dryer with the highest energy efficiency.

➔ Did you check the gas valve?

If the gas valve is closed, open the gas valve and proceed with drying.
Even if the gas valve is open, gas is not supplied if the gas shut-off device called the fuse cock inside the valve is active.
At this time, open and close the gas valve 2 or 3 times and run the dryer for about 1 minute to check if you can detect any heat.

Are only some clothes damp? (If not fully dried)

➔ What kind of fabric are you drying?

If you dry thin cotton and thick clothes together, the thick garments could still be damp when the drying cycle is finished.
In this case, dry the damp clothes for an additional 10 to 15 minutes with Timed Drying, so that they can become dry and soft.

➔ When drying a duvet

Put the duvet in and set it to dry for about 15 minutes with [Use Timed Drying]. Then take it out and turn it inside out so that the outer and inner parts are reversed.
Then run it again for about 15 minutes and it should come out soft and smooth.

➔ When drying shoes

For shoe drying, the dryer is set so that no heat is added in order to protect the condition of the shoes.
If you try to dry your shoes when they are completely wet after washing them, they won't dry fully.
Use the Shoe Drying option when you want to finish drying shoes that have been somewhat dried, but are still damp.

Note
When drying shoes, be sure to combine the drying rack provided with the dryer to dry the shoes.

If you set the Dry Level to medium or low, the drying temperature may be lowered and the drying time may be shortened or the drying may be weak.
Change the Dry Level setting or run a Timed Drying cycle to further dry the item.
