Order new filter cartridges through the

your refrigerator.
Automatic Ice and
Water Dispenser
(continued)
Changing the Filter and Large O-ring:
Water quality varies throughout the world. To ensure the highest possible water
quality, change water filter and O-ring every 12 months. Also, if filter has been in
a refrigerator that has not been in use for awhile (during moving for example), change
filter before reinstalling refrigerator. Note dispenser system will also operate
without filtration (with filter cartridge removed).
To change filter and large O-ring:
Refer to Figure 1 as needed.
1. Set ice maker lever (wire signal arm) to the OFF (up) position.
2. Hold filter cup firmly, and unscrew counter clockwise (Figure 1). Use cup removal
wrench if necessary (Figure 2). (Some water could leak out as you remove cup.
This is normal.) Filter cartridge will come down with cup. If cartridge remains
in housing, pull down gently, while twisting filter back and forth.
3. Replace large O-ring on filter housing. First remove old ring and discard. (You
may need to use a toothpick to get under ring. NOTE: Use caution so that
neither ring, nor groove that holds ring are damaged!) Carefully
remove new O-ring from sealed bag. Gently roll O-ring into place, into
containment groove above threads.
4. Empty cup of any substance.
5. Discard old filter cartridge.
6. Remove new filter cartridge from packaging, and install. See Steps 6-10 in
“System Startup.”
As a reminder to change your filter and O-ring, set control box marker 12 months
from date of replacement (Figure 3).
If you replace filter
in JUN, set marker
to JUN.
