Water Filter Cartridge
The water filter cartridge is located in the
back upper right corner of the refrigerator
compartment.
When to Replace the Filter
The filter cartridge should be replaced when
the flow of water to the icemaker decreases
or every 6 months.
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.
CAUTION: If air has been
trapped in the system, the filter cartridge may
be ejected as it is removed. Use caution when
removing.
Remove the protective foil from the end
of the cartridge.
Fill the replacement cartridge with water
from the tap to allow for better flow from
the icemaker.
Lining up the arrow on the cartridge
and the cartridge holder, slowly rotate
the cartridge clockwise until it stops.
When the cartridge is properly installed,
you will feel it “click” as it locks into place.
Do not overtighten.
Filter Bypass Plug
You must use the filter bypass plug when a
replacement filter cartridge is not available.
The icemaker will not operate without the
filter or filter bypass plug.
