• When the “water filter indicator light” is on:
If the “water filter indicator light” is on, it is indicating that you should change the
water filter. You should change the water filter at least every six months or when
the water capacity or the ice-making capacity has shown an obvious decrease.
Please pay attention to the water condition you are receiving, as you may need
to change the water filter frequently due to the difference between water
properties in different areas.
Please note:
Depending on the water source quality, you may need to change
your water filter more frequently than every 6 months.
• Changing the water filter:
1. Remove the old filter by turning the filter cartridge handle counterclockwise.
2. The cartridge will eject slightly from the filter housing.
3. Pull out the cartridge from the filter housing.
Caution! Water may be retained in the old filter cartridge. This could cause
some water spillage through the filter housing drain.
4. Remove the protective heat seal from the new filter cartridge. Insert it into the
filter housing with the filter cartridge handle in the vertical position. Then push
the filter cartridge into the housing until it stops.
5. Gently turn the cartridge handle clockwise until it stops. The cartridge handle
should now be horizontal.
6. Run the refrigerator water dispenser for 3-5 minutes after replacing the filter to
flush out the water tank. Discard this water.
7. After replacing the Haier filter cartridge, reset the water filter indicator lamp.
Caution!
1. The ice maker can not be used without the water filter.
2. For filter replacement questions or information on your Haier appliances,
contact your dealer or call 1-877-337-3839.
Note
1. Do not use water filter or icemaker with water that is microbiologically unsafe.
If you are not sure that it is safe, do not use without disinfecting the water
before or after it goes through the system.
2. After installing a new water filter, discard all ice produced during the first 24
hours.
3. If the icemaker has not been used actively for an extensive period of time, or if
ice cubes have an unpleasant taste or odor, change the water filter.
4. Air trapped in the system may cause water and filter cartridge to eject. Use
caution when removing.
