Refrigerator Use
Changing the Water Filter
1. Press the eject button to release the filter from the base grille.
2. Pull the filter straight out.
3. Turn the cap counterclockwise to remove it from the filter.
IMPORTANT: Do not discard the cap. It is part of your refrigerator. Keep the cap to use with the re-
placement filter.
4. Align the ridge on the cap with the arrow on the new filter and turn the cap until it snaps into place.
NOTE: You can run the dispenser without a filter. Your water will not be filtered. Simply
insert the cap all of the way into the base grille and rotate the cap until it is firmly in place.
5. Remove the covers from the O-rings. Be sure the O-rings are still in place after the covers are re-
moved.
6. Push the filter into the base grille. The eject button will pop back out when the filter is fully engaged.
7. Flush the water system. See “Water and Ice Dispensers.”
Refrigerator Care
Cleaning
Both refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically. However, clean both sections about once a
month to avoid buildup of odors. Wipe up spills immediately.
IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any odors formed in one section will trans-
fer to the other. You must thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To avoid odor transfer
and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly.
To Clean your refrigerator:
NOTE: Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable
fluids, cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing petroleum products
on plastic parts, interior and door liners or gaskets. Do not use paper towels, scouring pads, or other
harsh cleaning tools.
