The water filter helps remove impurities and contaminants from the tap water that reaches your fridge. In this blog post, we will show you how to put water filter in LG fridge, as well as how to change and reset it.

To put water filter in LG fridge, you need to locate the water filter housing behind the left side refrigerator door, remove the old water filter by pressing the push button and pulling it down, and install the new water filter by removing the protective cover, pushing it into the manifold hole, and rotating it up.

You may also need to tilt up and pull out the top shelf to access the filter compartment.
