AUTOMATIC ICE AND WATER DISPENSER
PURESOURCE
TM
* ICE AND WATER 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 The Water Dispenser Works section to
properly fill the system with water.
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. The Filter Status light will turn red after
400 gallons of water has flowed through the ice and water
dispenser (some models). 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.

Resetting The Filter Status Light (some models)
After replacing the filter cartridge, it will be necessary to
press the
Filter Status 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.
On models without a
Filter Status reset button,
there is a
set of Reminder Stickers included in the envelope that the
Use & Care Manual came in. Choose a dated sticker that
indicates 6 - 9 months (depending on your water quality
and usage) from the date of installation. Place the sticker
on the front of the filter cup to remind you when it is time to
change the filter.
