When I press a button on my LG DLEX4200, why does my dryer beep and then nothing happens?
The Control Lock feature is turned on for your LG DLEX4200. To turn off Control Lock, turn the dryer on, then press and hold the button that has *Control Lock on or under it for 3 seconds.
Why does my LG DLEX4200 take so long to dry clothes?
Proper airflow is critical to the efficient operation of clothes dryers. A lint filter which is full of lint or clogged with fabric softener sheet residue can reduce the airflow to the point that the time required to dry clothing will be greatly increased for your LG DLEX4200. Another factor affecting dry time is your home exhaust system. An exhaust system which is dirty and clogged with lint, or is excessively long, needs to be professionally cleaned or repaired.
Why does my LG DLEX4200 start by itself every few minutes?
This is how the Wrinkle Care feature works on your LG DLEX4200. The dryer runs briefly every few minutes for up to 3 hours after the cycle finishes. This feature is designed to help prevent wrinkles from setting in when the dryer is not unloaded immediately after the cycle is finished.
Why does my LG DLEX4200 show 3 minutes when I select the Steam Fresh™ cycle?
When the Steam Fresh™ cycle is selected on your LG DLEX4200, the dryer displays the recommended number of garments for the cycle, not the estimated cycle time, until the cycle is started. Use the More Time or Less Time buttons to adjust the load size setting for the number of garments you desire. For a large load or single bulky item use the 69 (big) setting.
What are the instructions for cleaning the lint filter in my LG DLEX4200 before every load?
Always make sure the lint filter is clean before starting a new load; a clogged lint filter will increase drying time for your LG DLEX4200. To clean, pull the lint filter straight up and roll any lint off the filter with your fingers. Push the lint filter firmly back into place.
Always ensure the lint filter is properly installed before running the dryer. Running the dryer with a loose or missing lint filter will damage the dryer and articles in the dryer.

House fuse is blown, circuit breaker has tripped, or power outage has occurred.
Dryer is overloaded.
Dryer is underloaded.
ENERGY SAVER option selected (on some models).
Solutions when clothes take too long to dry in the LG DLEX4200:
Heavy fabrics take longer to dry because they tend to retain more moisture. To help reduce and maintain more consistent drying times for large and heavy fabrics, separate these items into smaller loads of a consistent size.
Use the appropriate control settings for the type of load you are drying. Some loads may require an adjustment of the dry level setting for proper drying.
Remove the lint from the filter before every load. With the lint removed, hold the filter up to a light to see if it is dirty or clogged. With some loads that produce high amounts of lint, such as new bath towels, it may be necessary to pause the cycle and clean the filter during the cycle.
Reset circuit breaker or replace fuse. Do not increase fuse capacity. If the problem is a circuit overload, have it corrected by a qualified electrician. NOTE: Due to the design of electric dryers, it is possible for a circuit problem to allow an electric dryer to run without heat.
Divide extra large loads into smaller loads for better drying performance and efficiency.
If you are drying a very small load, add a few extra items to ensure proper tumbling action. If the load is very small and you are using SENSOR DRY cycles, the electronic control cannot properly sense the dryness of the load and may shut off too soon. Use TIME DRY or add some extra wet clothes to the load.
If using the Normal cycle, deselect the ENERGY SAVER option. This option reduces energy use by adding an air dry section to the beginning of the cycle. It is normal to feel no heat at the beginning of the cycle while in ENERGY SAVER mode.
