The water filter status light
The water filter status light will help you know when to
change your water filter cartridge. The light is located at
the top of the refrigerator compartment. The light will
change from green to yellow. This tells you that it is almost
time to change the water filter cartridge (90% of the filter
life has been used). It is recommended that you replace
the water filter cartridge when the water filter status light
changes to red OR water flow to your water dispenser or
ice maker decreases noticeably. (See "Changing a water
filter cartridge" later in this section.)
NOTE: Do not use with water that is microbiologicaliy
unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate
disinfection before or after the system.

Changing a water filter cartridge
The water filter is located below the freezer compartment
door.
1. Locate the water filter cartridge cap in the front base
grille below the freezer compartment door. Rotate the
cap counterclockwise to a vertical position and pull the
cap and filter cartridge out through the base grille.
NOTE: There will be water in the cartridge. Some
spilling may occur.
3. Take the new cartridge out of its packaging and remove
protective cover from o-rings.
4. Slide the cartridge cap onto the new cartridge as
shown.
5. With cartridge cap in the vertical position, push the new
filter cartridge into the base grille until it stops. Rotate
the cartridge cap clockwise to a horizontal position.
6. RUN WATER THROUGH THE DISPENSER UNTIL THE
WATER RUNS CLEAR (about 2 to 3 gallons or 6 to 7
minutes). This will clean the system and clear air from
the lines. Additional flushing may be required in some
households.
NOTE: As air is cleared from the system, water may
spurt out of the dispenser.
2. Remove the cartridge cap by sliding it off the end of the
old cartridge. The cap will slide to the left or right. DO
