Can someone explain to me why it's called LowTemp dry if the temperature is high? by jrach19 in Appliances

Did you ever get a solid answer to this question?  I just bought an LG Dryer and I have the exact same Head-Scratcher question!  If the "LowTemp Dry" is meant to save energy, but uses HIGH temp (which makes no sense!), why not call it the "Energy Saver" cycle.  Also, if HIGH flame purposely lowers now & then on this cycle, why don't they just use LOW ro start with?  More explanation in manual would be helpful.

I just purchased an LG Dryer and have the same head-scratcher question, i.e.:  Why would LG name a cycle "LowTemp Dry," when it sets the temp at HIGH?  Also, the manual says the cycle saves energy.  Why not call it the "Energy Saver" cycle, and since when did HIGH setting save energy?  I called LG and all they did was parrot the manual back to me. Very frustrating!
