Troubleshooting door water leakage
Cause
■ If water happens to leak through the door even though the airtight rubber gasket(1) around the
door is completely intact, it may be that foreign materials are caught between the glass door
and the gasket. Most commonly observed in households with pets shedding hair, it only takes
a few strands of hair to prevent the gasket’s airtightness properties from performing optima.
※ If rubber gasket(1) is deformed or ripped, please contact LG Customer Service Call Center.
How to fix
■ Clean the rubber gasket(1) and door glass regularly with a soft towel.
■ Also, gently clean sealing(2) around the gasket and door glass.
1) Gasket:
- Gasket is a mechanical part that creates a seal between the front of the washer and
the tub holding the water to prevent any leakage.
2) Sealing:
- Sealing around the glass door is used to prevent any leakage from inside and protect
mechanical device from external particles filtering in.
