On some models
Water Filter Cartridge
The water filter cartridge is located in the
back upper right corner of the refrigerator
compartment.
When to Replace the Filter
There is a replacement indicator light for
the water filter cartridge on the dispenser.
This light will turn orange to tell you that
you need to replace the filter soon.
The filter cartridge should be replaced
when the replacement indicator light turns
red or if the flow of water to the dispenser
or icemaker decreases.
Installing the Filter Cartridge
If you are replacing the cartridge,
first remove the old one by slowly
turning it to the left. Do not pull down
on the cartridge. A small amount of
water may drip down.
Fill the replacement cartridge with
water from the tap to allow for better
flow from the dispenser immediately
after installation.
Lining up the arrow on the cartridge
and the cartridge holder, place the
top of the new cartridge up inside
the holder. Do not push it up into
the holder.
Slowly turn it to the right until the filter
cartridge stops. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
As you turn the cartridge, it will
automatically raise itself into position.
Cartridge will rotate about 1/4 turn.
Run water from the dispenser for
3 minutes (about one and a half
gallons) to clear the system and
prevent sputtering.
Press and hold the RESET WATER FILTER
pad on the dispenser for 3 seconds.
NOTE: A newly-installed water filter
cartridge may cause water to spurt from
the dispenser.
Filter Bypass Plug
You must use the filter bypass plug
when a replacement filter cartridge is not
available. The dispenser and the icemaker
will not operate without the filter or filter
bypass plug.
