Changing The Water and Air Filters
Your refrigerator is equipped with separate water and
air filtering systems. The water filter system filters all
dispensed drinking water, as well as the water used to
produce ice. The air filter removes odors and impurities
from the refrigerator compartment.

Replacing your PureAdvantage
TM
water
filter
In general, you should change the water filter every
six (6) months to ensure the highest possible water
quality. The Water Filter Status light on the Touch
Panel prompts you to replace the filter after a standard
amount of water (400 gallons)
has flowed through the
system.
If your refrigerator has not been used for a period of
time (during moving for example), change the filter
before reinstalling the refrigerator.
It is not necessary to turn the water supply off to
change the filter. Be ready to wipe up any small
amounts of water released during the filter replacement.
1 Turn Off the ice maker on the control panel.
2 Push the filter release button above the cartridge
to disconnect it.
3 Slide the old water filter cartridge straight out of
the housing and discard it.
4 Unpack the new filter cartridge and remove the
two (2) protective caps covering the inlet and exit
of the filter. Slide the filter gently into the housing
until it stops against the snap-in connector at the
back of the housing.
