About the water filter.
Water Filter Cartridge
The water filter cartridge is located in
the back upper right corner of the refrigerator
compartment.
When to Replace the Filter
LCD Models:
A pop-up screen will appear on the LCD screen
to remind you to replace the water filter. You can
check the status of the water filter manually.
Access By:
Home > Options > Dispenser Options >
Reset Water Filter
Non-LCD Models:
There is a replacement indicator light for the water
filter cartridge on the dispenser. This light will turn
orange to tell you that you need to replace the
filter soon.
The filter cartridge should be replaced when the
replacement indicator light turns red or if the flow
of water to the dispenser or icemaker decreases.
Removing the Filter Cartridge
If you are replacing the cartridge, first remove
the old one by slowly turning it to the left.
Do not
pull down on the cartridge. A small amount of
water may drip down.
Installing the Filter Cartridge
There is an adapter attached to the top
of the new filter cartridge.
The adapter must be removed before
installing the cartridge. To remove the
adapter, turn it to the left about 1/4 turn.
Fill the replacement cartridge with water
from the tap to allow for better flow from
the dispenser immediately after installation.
Line up the arrow on the cartridge and
the cartridge holder. Place the top of the new
cartridge up inside the holder.
Do not
push
it up into the holder.
Slowly turn it to the right until the filter
cartridge stops.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
As you turn the cartridge, it will automatically
raise itself into position. The cartridge will
rotate about 1/2 turn.
Run water from the dispenser for 5 minutes
to clear the system and prevent sputtering.
