Water Filter (selected models)
Your refrigerator is equipped with a water filtering
system. The water filtering system filters all dispensed
drinking water, as well as the water used to produce ice.
The water filter is located at the top right side of the
fresh food compartment.
In general, you should change the water filter every six
months to ensure the highest possible water quality.
Water filter status on the user interface prompts you to
replace the filter after a standard amount of water (125
gallons/473 liters) has flowed through the system.
If your refrigerator has not been used for a period of
time (during moving for example), change the filter
before reinstalling the refrigerator
NOTE: When ordering your replacement filter,
please reorder the same filter type that is
currently in your refrigerator.
Replacing the Water Filter
To Remove: Pull cover towards you and cover will
drop down and allow access to filter.
To Reinstall: Push cover up towards liner and then
push towards rear of cabinet. Filter cover will snap
back into place.
It is not necessary to turn the water supply off to
change the filter. Be ready to wipe up any small
amounts of water released during the filter
replacement.
1. Ensure that the ice maker is turned off
2. Remove the filter by turning anti-clockwise 180˚
3. Slide the old water filter cartridge straight out of
the housing and discard it.
4. Unwrap the new filter cartridge and using the
alignment guide, slide it gently into filter housing
until it stops against the filter connection at the
back of the housing.
5. Engage the filter by firmly rotating clockwise until
the filter snaps into position (once engaged the
filter cannot be rotated further).
6. Press a drinking glass against the water dispenser
while checking for any leaks at the filter housing.
Any spurts and sputters that occur as the system
purges air out of the dispenser system are normal.
7. After filling one glass of water, continue flushing the
system for about four minutes.
8. Turn on the ice maker.
9. When the filter has been replaced press and hold
the ‘Ice and Water’ button for three seconds to
reset the filter replace timer.
