If you purchased a refrigerator with a 

PureSource MB

Ice and Water front filter, please read the following use
and care information. 

 This ice and water filter system

filters water to your ice maker and water dispenser.  It is
located in the upper right front corner of the refrigerator
compartment.

PURESOURCE MB ICE AND WATER FRONT FILTER
(SOME MODELS)

System Startup:

Water supply does not need to be turned off, however, do not
use ice and water dispenser while installing filter.

The filter cartridge has already been installed in the filter
housing at the factory. Refer to the 

How To Prime The Water

Supply System section to properly fill the system with water.

Order new filter
cartridges through the
dealer where you
bought the refrigerator,
contact the 

Electrolux

Solutions Hotline at 1-
800-944-9044, or go to
our web site at
www.frigidaire.com.  It
might be good to order
some filter cartridges
when you first install
your refrigerator. Be
sure to ask for 

the

MB100 replacement
cartridge WF2MB.

The 

PureSource MB Ice and Water Filter System

MBFC 2003 with the 

PureSource MB cartridge

MB100 is tested and cer tified by NSF
International, the nationally recognized and
respected, not for profit, certification organization

for public health safety. The 

PureSource MB Filter system is

tested and certified to ANSI/NSF Standards 42 and 53. See
performance data sheet for specifications. PureSource MB,
MBFC-2003 Ice & Water Filter System should not be used on
water that is visually contaminated (cloudy) or has an obvious
contamination source, such as contamination by raw sewage.
State of Wisconsin requires statement: Do not use in Wisconsin
with water that is microbiologically unsafe, or of an unknown
quality without adequate point-of-entry disinfection before this
device.

• Rated Capacity - 250 gallons
• Rated service flow - .5 GPM
• Maximum Rated Pressure - 100 PSI
• Maximum Operating Temp.  - 100° F

Changing the Filter:

Water conditions vary throughout the world, but changing the
water filter every
6 - 9 months normally will ensure the highest possible water
quality. 

Ice jams in the ice maker and/or hollow ice cubes

(partially frozen cubes with liquid water inside), may also

be a sign that your water filter needs changing.

 The Filter

Status light will turn red after approximately 250 gallons of water
has

flowed through the ice and water dispenser. Also, if the filter has been
in a refrigerator that has not been in use for awhile (during moving for
example), change the filter before reinstalling the refrigerator.  The
dispenser system will also operate without filtration (with filter
cartridge removed and bypass installed).

To change filter:

It is not necessary to turn the water supply off to change the filter.

1.

Turn OFF side mounted ice maker by raising wire signal
arm to the UP position. Turn OFF rear mounted ice maker
by pressing ON/OFF power switch to the “O” position.

2.

Push the 

Filter Release Button, located to the right of the

filter cartridge, to release the filter from the housing.  To
minimize the possibility of the filter falling out of the housing
during removal, it would be best to hold the filter as it moves out
toward you.

3.

Pull the old filter cartridge straight out of the housing.

A small amount of water may be released during this
operation. You should have a paper towel or dish cloth
handy to wipe up any water that may drip out of the filter or
housing. Two small holes near the back of the housing have
been added for any excess water to escape. It would be
best to clear away any food near this area on the top shelf
in advance of removing the filter.

4.

Discard the old filter.

5.

Remove the new filter cartridge from the packaging and
insert into the filter housing the same way the old one
came out.

6.

When the cartridge is almost in, you will feel it stop against
the clip assembly in the back of the housing. The clip
assembly holds the filter cartridge firmly in place. At this
point, you will need to push firmly until the cartridge
snaps fully in place. When completely in place, the front of
the filter cartridge will be flush with the front of the housing.

7.

Replace the ice container. Turn ON side mounted ice
maker by lowering wire signal arm to the DOWN position.
Turn ON rear mounted ice maker by pressing ON/OFF
power switch to the “I” position.

8.

Fill a glass with water. As you are doing this, check for
leaks at the filter housing.

9.

To prime filter system and purge air from water line,

continue flushing the system for approximately 3 minutes
to assure that the purest water possible is stored in the
water tank. 

There will be noticeable spurts and sputters

as the system pushes air out through the system and
out the dispenser nozzle. This is normal.

Resetting The Filter Status Light (some models)

After replacing the filter cartridge, it will be necessary to press the
Filter Reset button located on the ice and water dispenser. This
will reset the Filter Status light. Push the reset button until the
green, red and amber lights flash (10-15 seconds). Please refer
to the complete dispenser operating instructions attached to the
inside of the freezer door.
