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.

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.
