STEAM CYCLE GUIDE
IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT STEAM CYCLES:
• Steam may not be clearly visible during the
Steam Cycles. This is normal.
• Do not use STEAM FRESH ™ with items such as
wool, blankets, leather jackets, silk, wet clothes,
lingerie, foam products, or electric blankets.
• For best results, load articles of similar size and
fabric type. Do not overload.
STEAM FUNCTIONS
• When the filter/duct is clogged, the Steam
option may not have optimal results.
• When the Steam function is operating,
the drum will stop to allow steam to stay
in the drum.
• The steam feeder must be filled with water up
to the MAX line. Otherwise, an Error message
will be displayed.
• Shirt: 70% cotton/30% poly blend.
• When the lint filter or exhaust duct is clogged, steam options will not give proper results.
• For best results, load articles of similar size and fabric type. Do not overload.
LG’s new steam technology allows you to inject
fabrics with a swirling jet of hot steam to refresh
clothes, reduce static, and make ironing easier.
Simply select the STEAM FRESH ™ cycle, or you
can add a Steam option to selected cycles.
Using the STEAM FRESH ™ Cycle
STEAM FRESH ™ uses the power of steam alone
to quickly reduce wrinkles and odor in fabrics. It
brings new life to wrinkled clothes that have been
stored for an extended time and makes heavily
wrinkled clothes easier to iron. STEAM FRESH ™
can also be used to help reduce odors in fabrics.
NOTES:
• REDUCE STATIC or EASY IRON options can
also be used during the STEAM FRESH ™ cycle.
• Depending on the load (quantity of items), you
may change the amount of time for the cycle by
pressing the MORE TIME or LESS TIME button.
The display will show 3, 5, or BULKY LOAD. 3
means 3 or fewer items, 5 is for 4 or 5 items,
and BULKY LOAD indicates a large load such
as a comforter.

Turn on the dryer and turn the cycle selector
knob to select the desired cycle.

settings for that cycle.
Press the Steam option button for the Steam
option you would like to add. Then adjust for
