Model number & identification
Locate the appliance label
Open the dryer door and inspect the opening or door area for the product label. If it is not visible there, look on the cabinet exterior or rear only when the dryer can be viewed safely without moving it or reaching behind connected utilities. The exact label location varies by manufacturer and model. Use a phone photo or write down the text before closing the door; small characters can be hard to read later.
Do not use a washer label, sales listing, or a label on a pedestal as the dryer’s identity. A laundry pair may share a brand and visual style while having separate model and serial numbers. If the dryer is stacked or tightly fitted, consult the model’s owner information or the manufacturer’s support page for that specific unit’s label location rather than pulling the appliance out.
Capture the complete identifiers
Copy the full model code, including every letter, digit, and suffix, and the serial number separately. Photograph the whole label so characters, certification marks, and electrical or fuel details remain legible. Codes that differ by one letter can identify different fuel types or product revisions; a partial family name is not enough to order a part or confirm a specification.
Keep the receipt or delivery record with the label photo. The purchase date and serial number may be requested when discussing warranty coverage, while the model code is the key for manuals, diagrams, accessories, and product notices. Store the information somewhere available even if the dryer is installed in a closet.
Read the code as a cross-check
Treat the physical label as authoritative. A model code printed on an invoice, cabinet, or online listing can be mistyped. Confirm that the label’s full code matches the support page or document title before relying on a listed feature. For example, LG’s DLEX4000 family sheet identifies DLEX4000 as electric and DLGX4001 as gas; that pairing applies to those named models, not to every LG dryer family.
Appearance is not a safe way to identify fuel. Similar controls and doors can appear on both versions. If the label is damaged or missing, send support clear photos of the appliance, controls, and any remaining identification marks and ask how to establish the exact model before buying parts or arranging installation.
Use identity to find the right guidance
Search the manufacturer’s support site using the entire model code, not a broad phrase such as “large capacity dryer.” Compare the result’s code and product type with the label, then open the matching owner manual or specification document. Support pages can group related versions, so verify the exact suffix and whether the listing describes gas or electric before applying an instruction.
For a retailer or service conversation, provide the model and serial together, plus a concise description of the issue. For an accessory or replacement component, request confirmation against the full model code and any revision information. A family-level brochure may describe shared features, but it cannot establish that every part or option fits every suffix.
Keep identification current
Save one readable label image and a short text note in your household records. Update the note if the appliance is replaced; old laundry paperwork often remains long after a new dryer arrives. If you rent, pass the identifiers to the property manager rather than trying to remove or reposition the dryer to reach a concealed label.
When checking safety notices, search by the exact model and follow the notice’s identification instructions. A similar product name alone does not establish that a particular appliance is included. CPSC’s recall search allows consumers to look for product notices; retain the result or notice details so any follow-up can refer to the identified unit.
What to do with what you find
The label clearly shows a complete model and serial number.
Use those identifiers as the basis for manuals, support, and product checks.
The label is missing, unreadable, or conflicts with paperwork.
Fuel type, suffix, and product revision remain uncertain.
Have these details ready
- Clear photo of the complete dryer label
- Receipt or delivery record if purchase timing matters

Can I identify my dryer by its appearance?
No. Gas and electric versions can look alike. Use the appliance label and confirm the full model code.
Which number should I give support?
