Changing The Water and Air Filters

Your refrigerator is equipped with separate water and 

air filtering systems. The water filter system filters all 

dispensed drinking water, as well as the water used to 

produce ice. The air filter removes odors and impurities 

from the refrigerator compartment.

About your advanced water filter

The 

PureAdvantage

TM

 ice and water filter 

system is tested and certified by NSF 

International to NSF/ANSI Standards 

42 and 53 for the reduction of claims 

specified on the performance data sheet.

Water filter

The water filter is located at the lower left side of the 

fresh food compartment.

Replacing your 

PureAdvantage

TM 

water filter

In general, you should change the water filter every six 

months to ensure the highest possible water quality. 

The 

Water Filter Status light on the Touch Panel 

prompts you to replace the filter after a standard 

amount of water (400 gallons)

 

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.

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 Turn 

Off the ice maker on the control panel.

 

2   Push the filter release button above the cartridge 

to disconnect it.

 

3  Slide the old water filter cartridge straight out of 

the housing and discard it.

 

4  Unpack the new filter cartridge and remove the 

two protective caps covering the inlet and exit of 

the filter. Slide the filter gently into the housing 

until it stops against the snap-in connector at the 

back of the housing.

Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or 

of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before 

or after the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction 

may be used on disinfected waters that may contain 

filterable cysts.

6 Turn 

On the ice maker at the control panel.

 

7  Press a drinking glass against the water 

dispenser while checking for any leaks at the filter 

housing. Spurts and sputters may occur as the 

system purges air out of the dispenser system.

 

8  Prime the water supply system as described 

previously.

 

9  Press and hold the Filter Status button on the control 

panel for three seconds. When the display changes 

from “

Replace” to “Good,” the status has been reset.
