STEP 6: Preparation of the Dryer.

Prior to the first use of this appliance, use all- purpose cleaning products or a solution of detergent and water, with damp clothes to remove from the inside of the dryer drum/drying compartment any dust or dirt that may have accumulated the inside of the dryer. Plug in your dryer after reviewing the following parts on your dryer's Electrical Requirements.

STEP 7: Confirming Heat Source Operation.

Confirming Heat Source in Gas Dryers

Close the door to the dryer drum/drying

compartment and, after completing all steps in this manual for proper installation of this dryer, start the dryer on a heat setting, as described more fully in the operating instructions that accompany the dryer. After the dryer starts, the igniter will glow red and the main burner will ignite.

Warning: If all air is not pinged from the gas line, the gas igniter may go off before the gas and the main burner have ignited. If this happens, the igniter will re-attempt gas ignition after

approximately two minutes.

Confirming Heat Source in Electric Dryers

Close the door to the dryer drum/drying

compartment and, after completing all steps in this manual for proper installation of this dryer, start the dryer on a heat setting, as described more fully in the operating instructions that accompany the dryer. The exhaust air or the exhaust pipe should be warm after the dryer has been operating for three minutes.

STEP 8: Dryer Airflow.

Effective dryer operation requires appropriate dryer airflow. The adequacy of the airflow can be measured by evaluating the static pressure. Static pressure in the exhaust duct can be measured with a manometer, placed on the exhaust duct

approximately 2 ft. (60.9 cm) from the dryer. Static pressure in the exhaust duct should not exceed 0.6 inches (1.5 cm). The dryer should be checked with the dryer running with no load.

DLE 5977 B, D 5988 B, DLE 5977W, D 5988W specifications

LG Electronics has made significant strides in the home appliance industry, and their line of dryers, specifically the DLE 5977W, DLE 5977B, D5988B, and D5988W, showcases innovative technology and efficient design. These models are engineered to meet the demands of modern households while also providing a user-friendly experience.

One of the standout features of the DLE 5977 series is the Ultra Large Capacity design. With a capacity of 7.3 cubic feet, these dryers allow users to dry more clothes in a single load, reducing the time spent doing laundry. This capacity is particularly beneficial for larger families or anyone who frequently handles bulky items like comforters and jackets.

The dryers are equipped with the TurboSteam technology, which harnesses the power of steam to reduce wrinkles and refresh clothes. This feature is indispensable for those with busy schedules, as it allows garments to be revitalized and ready to wear in a matter of minutes, eliminating the need for ironing or additional washing.

Energy efficiency is another key characteristic of the DLE 5977W and its counterparts. These models are ENERGY STAR certified, meaning they meet or exceed federal guidelines for energy efficiency. This not only helps reduce utility bills but also reflects LG's commitment to environmental sustainability.

Smart technology integration is a prominent highlight across these models. The Link technology, compatible with Wi-Fi, allows users to connect their dryers to smartphones. This enables remote monitoring and control through the LG ThinQ app, giving users access to cycle information, maintenance alerts, and diagnostic help straight from their devices.

Safety features are also a priority in the design of the DLE 5977 and D5988 series. The models include features like the Smart Diagnosis, which can identify issues through a smartphone app, making it easier to troubleshoot and maintain the appliance. Additionally, with the Anti-Vibration technology, users can enjoy quieter operation without sacrificing performance, even during the spin cycles.

In conclusion, LG Electronics has produced a remarkable lineup with the DLE 5977W, DLE 5977B, D5988B, and D5988W. These models exhibit an impressive blend of capacity, efficiency, and cutting-edge technology, making them a smart choice for consumers seeking reliable and effective laundry solutions.
