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.
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.
1 Turn off both water taps completely. Unscrew
the hot and cold water lines from the back of
the washer.
NOTE: The inlet filters protect the solenoids
from grit and debris. If the filters are not in
place, the valves will be damaged.
