Common Symptoms
- Lint filter visibly clogged with lint or debris
- Reduced airflow through the lint-filter area
- Lint accumulating around the filter opening
- Filter does not sit correctly in its slot
- Drying performance decreases when the filter is heavily loaded
Check Before Replacing
- Remove the filter and visually inspect both mesh surfaces for lint buildup, tears, gaps, or deformation.
- Clean loose lint by rolling it off with your fingers or using a vacuum cleaner, as directed by LG.
- Inspect the filter opening and surrounding area for accumulated lint or debris.
- Reinstall the filter and confirm that it is fully inserted and seated in the intended position.
- If drying remains slow after the filter is clean and properly seated, consult the dryer's owner manual or qualified service personnel rather than assuming the filter is the sole cause.
Pro Tip
Clean the lint filter after each load and periodically vacuum the filter inlet and surrounding area; LG notes that maintaining a clean, correctly sized filter helps reduce lint reaching the vent and may reduce drying time.
