[LG Water Purifier] The purifier doesn’t power on

Troubleshooting

Try this.

Check the connections to the electrical outlet and power strip.

➔ Please check whether the power plug is securely plugged into the electrical outlet.

Also check if other home appliances have power when connected to the same electrical outlet.
If other appliances do not have power when connected to the same power outlet, there could be a problem with the outlet.

After removing the power plug of the water purifier, another home appliance is connected to the power outlet to check for normal operation.

➔ Overloading may occur if a power strip is used or multiple appliances (rice cooker, washer, refrigerator, vacuum cleaner, etc.)
are connected to the same power source, resulting in the circuit breaker tripping.

If the use of a power strip is unavoidable due to the constraints of the installation location, please make sure the current and voltage do not exceed the maximum capacity of the power strip.

Incorrect electrical outlet and power strip use Correct use of the wall outlet: connecting a single plug

Inspect the wall outlet

➔ When using an appliance that draws a lot of power, it is safer to connect it to a wall outlet.
(Checking for grounding is essential.)

If the power plug is loosely connected or if there are dust and foreign substances on the prongs, the power cord may overheat and the appliance may turn off.
(If overheating occurs, the appliance needs to be replaced.)

Prongs smeared with foreign substances may become damaged

After turning the water purifier off, can the circuit breaker not be reset?

➔ If you are unable to switch the circuit breaker back to the 'on' position after turning off the water purifier, it indicates that the building's electrical system requires inspection.

If the circuit breaker cannot be switched “on” only when the water purifier is powered on, the product may be faulty so please request for service.
