About the water and FreshSaver
™
filters.
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.
