Cleaning the Water Inlet Filters

If the washer detects that water is not entering

the dispenser, an error message will show on the

display. If you live in an area with hard water, this

may be caused by clogged inlet filters.

Turn off both water taps completely. Unscrew

the hot and cold water lines from the back of

the washer.

1

Carefully remove the filters from the water

inlets, and soak them in white vinegar

or a lime scale remover, following the

manufacturer’s instructions. Rinse thoroughly

before reinstalling.
Press the filters back into place and reattach

the water lines. Do NOT operate the washer

without the inlet filters.

2

IMPORTANT: Use extreme care when removing

and cleaning the filters. If the filters cannot be

cleaned or are damaged, do NOT operate the

washer without the inlet filters. Contact LG

Customer Service or a qualified LG servicer.
