Let's find out more.
The Hygiene Fresh filter, located inside the refrigerator compartment shelf, eliminates odors and bacteria circulating within the refrigerator.
While it varies depending on the refrigerator model, replacing the filter typically once a year helps maintain a fresh, odor-free environment.
Try this.
Open the refrigerator compartment, remove the food, and replace the filter inside.
Purchase a filter compatible with your refrigerator model from the LG Electronics website's Care & Accessories/Consumables Shop or your nearest LG Electronics service center. Then, replace the filter as follows:
