Interior Water Filtration System
(on some models)
The interior water filter cartridge is located in the upper corner of
the fresh food compartment of the refrigerator. The interior water
filter cartridge should be replaced every six months or earlier if
the flow of water to your water dispenser or ice maker decreases
noticeably.
Replacing the interior water filter cartridge
1.
Twist the interior water filter cartridge
¹⁄₄
turn to the left. The
INSTALL mark will be lined up with the indicator line located
on the filter mounting bracket cover.
2.
Gently pull down on the cartridge to remove it from the filter
mounting bracket assembly. To prevent water from spilling
inside the refrigerator, DO NOT TIP the cartridge. Dispose of
the cartridge.
3.
Install the new interior water filter cartridge. You can run the
dispenser without a water filter cartridge, but your water will
not be filtered.
NOTE: Do not use with water that is microbiologically
unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate
disinfection before or after the system.
■
Carefully remove the interior water filter cartridge from its
packaging. Remove the red cap from the cartridge.
■
Apply the appropriate month sticker to the cartridge as a
reminder to replace the cartridge within six months. Then
apply the “Water Filter Replacement Reminder” sticker to
your calendar as a reminder to replace the cartridge in six
months.
4.
Line up the INSTALL mark on the water filter label with the
indicator line that is molded into the filter mounting bracket
cover. Push the cartridge into the filter mounting bracket.
Twist the cartridge
¹⁄₄
turn to the right to lock it into place. The
REMOVE mark should be lined-up with the indicator line
located on the front cover.
5.
Flush the water system by dispensing and discarding
2 to 3 gallons (8 to12 liters) or approximately 6 to 7 minutes of
water through the dispenser. This will clean the system and
help 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.
6.
Inspect the filter system for water leaks. If you see water
leaks, see the “Troubleshooting” section.
Ice Maker and Storage Bin/Bucket
(on some models - Accessory)
To turn the ice maker on/off: (Style 1)
The on/off switch for the ice maker is a wire shut-off arm located
on the side of the ice maker.
1.
To turn the ice maker on, simply lower the wire shut-off arm.
NOTE:
Your ice maker has an automatic shut-off. As ice is
made, the ice cubes will fill the ice storage bin and the ice
cubes will raise the wire shut-off arm to the OFF (arm up)
position.
2.
To manually turn the ice maker off, lift the wire shut-off arm to
the OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click to make sure
the ice maker will not continue to operate.
To increase ice production rate:
■
Normal Ice Production:
In normal ice production mode, the
ice maker should produce approximately 7 to 9 batches of ice
in a 24-hour period. If ice is not being made fast enough, turn
the Freezer Control toward a higher (colder) number in half
number steps. (For example, if the control is at 3, move it to
between 3 and 4.) Wait 24 hours and, if necessary, gradually
turn the Freezer Control to the highest setting, waiting 24
hours between each increase.
■
Maximum Ice Production (on some models):
In maximum
ice production, the ice maker should produce approximately
10 to 14 batches of ice in a 24-hour period. If your refrigerator
has the maximum ice production feature, push the switch to
MAX.
To remove and replace the ice bin: (Style 1)
1.
Pull the covering panel out from the bottom and then slide it
back toward the rear.
2.
Lift the wire shut-off arm so it clicks into the OFF (up)
position. Ice can still be dispensed, but no more can be
made.
3.
Lift up the front of the storage bin and pull it out.
4.
Replace the bin by pushing it in all the way or the dispenser
will not work. Push the wire shut-off arm down to the ON
position to restart ice production. Make sure the door is
closed tightly.
To turn the ice maker on/off: (Style 2)
The ON/OFF switch is located on the top right side of the freezer
compartment.
1.
To turn the ice maker on, slide the control to the ON (left)
position.
NOTE:
Your ice maker has an automatic shut-off. The ice
maker sensors will automatically stop ice production but the
control will remain in the ON (left) position.
2.
To manually turn the ice maker off, slide the control to the
OFF (right) position.
