Water Filter Status Light
(on some models)
The water filter status light will help you know when to change
your water filter cartridge. 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 base grille water filter
cartridge when the water filter indicator light changes to red OR
water flow to your water dispenser or ice maker decreases
noticeably. To change the base grille water filter cartridge, see
“Changing the Water Filter Cartridge” later in this section.
After changing the water filter cartridge, reset the water filter
status light.
Style 1
Press the light switch 5 times within 10 seconds. The status light
will change from red to green.
Style 2
Press and hold the water filter reset button until the status light
turns green. Your reset button may be located on the water
dispenser or on the control panel in the refrigerator compartment.
Water Filtration System
(on some models)
NOTE: Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe
or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before
or after the system.
Changing the Water Filter Cartridge
1. Locate the water filter cartridge cap in the front base grille.
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.
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 not discard
the cap.
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. See
illustration in Step 2.
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. Flush the water
system (see “Flushing the Water System After Replacing
Filter” section).
Flushing the Water System After Replacing Filter
Use a sturdy container to depress the water dispenser bar until
the water begins to flow. Flush the water system by dispensing
and discarding 1.5 gal. (5.4 L) of water. Cleaning the system will
take approximately 3 minutes and will help clear air from the line.
Additional flushing may be required in some households.
NOTE: As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of
the dispenser.
Using the Dispenser Without the Water Filter Cartridge
You can run the dispenser without a water filter cartridge. Your
water will not be filtered.
