The water filter cartridge is located in the
upper right-hand corner of the fresh food
compartment, right below the temperature
controls.
The filter cartridge should be replaced
every
six months
or earlier if the flow of
water to the water 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.
Remove and discard the plastic cap
from the new cartridge.
Fill the replacement cartridge with water
from the tap.
Apply the month and year sticker to the
cartridge to remind you to replace the
filter in
six months.
Place the top of the cartridge up inside
the cartridge 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.
Run water from the dispenser for 1
minute (about a half gallon) to clear
the system and prevent sputtering.
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.
