Exhaust Requirements and Instructions:

1.Venting materials are not provided with the dryer and you should obtain the necessary venting materials locally. For example, the outer end of exhaust pipe must have a weather hood with hinged dampers to prevent back-draft when the dryer is not in use.

2.The exhaust duct must be four inches (10.2 cm)

in diameter with no obstructions. The exhaust duct should be kept as short as possible. Make sure to clean any old ducts before installing your new dryer.

3.Rigid metal duct is recommended. Do not install

flexible duct in concealed spaces.

Non-combustible flexible metal duct is acceptable. Do not use plastic or thin foil ducting.

4.DO NOT use sheet metal screws on exhaust pipe joints or other fastening means which extend into the duct that could catch lint and reduce the

efficiency of the exhaust system. Secure all joints with duct tape.

5.To maximize operating results, please observe the duct length limitations noted in the chart above.

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.
