What is the Bedding cycle used for?
This cycle is intended for durable, thick or bulky loads that retain more moisture.
The dryer uses sensor feedback and a heat profile suited to substantial items. Large pieces should have room to tumble and separate.
Choose another cycle for: Overfilling the drum or mixing delicate items into a heavy load.
What this means for your load
Sensor-controlled cycle; load size, material and moisture affect the duration. Check the appliance display for its current estimate.
Why the time may change: Load mass, tangling, washer spin speed and restricted vent airflow can add considerable time.
Check the full LG DLE3600W cycle table to compare other programs before starting.
When will it finish?
This sensor or variable cycle ends according to the selected settings and load conditions. Use the dryer's current estimate if it displays one.
Estimated energy and local cost
This range is calculated from the documented cycle characteristics and appliance type. It is deliberately shown as a range because load conditions, temperature selections, sensors and options change consumption.
Planning the Bedding cycle on the DLE3600W
Heavy cycles trade speed for more washing, tumbling, heating or rinsing. They are commonly among the most variable programs because the appliance may respond to soil or load conditions.
On the LG DLE3600W, watch for fabric weight, retained moisture, airflow and sensor-dry targets. Separate heavy and light fabrics when finish time matters, and clean the lint filter before the load.
The planning range on this page is 2.3–6.2 kWh; use the ZIP or bill-rate calculator for a local cost estimate. The exact-model reference is linked from lg.com, while estimates are labeled separately.
