Status message guidance

Disconnect power, hold Start/Pause for five seconds while unpowered, restore power, and try a cycle.

  1. Disconnect power, hold Start/Pause for five seconds while unpowered, then restore power.
  2. After restoring power, try another cycle.

This display is not a fault. Separate signs such as smoke, flooding, sparks, or a burning smell require the manufacturer's safety instructions.

Do not do

Do not label PF as a confirmed component failure or open the dryer.

Use only the documented reset and do not infer an internal failure from PF alone.

If the message returns

If PF persists after the reset, request LG repair service.
