Water Filter Installation Instructions

Follow these simple instructions for your filter type.

1.  Locate the filter head; in the upper right hand side of the refrigerator 

compartment or in the machine compartment on built in refrigerator models.

2.  During initial installation of the water filter, remove the bypass cap by a ¼ turn 

counter clockwise, retain for later use. During replacement installation rotate 

the used filter counter clockwise until it is released from the filter head. Twist 

gently and do not pull. Note: there may be some water in the filter and some 

spilling may occur.

3.   Remove the new filter from the packaging. Remove the filter cap.

4.  Lubricate the O-ring with food grade vegetable oil.

5.  Line up the cartridge ears so it can be inserted into the filter head. Rotate the 

filter cartridge ¼ turn clockwise.

for 4 gallons (approximately 5 minutes) through the dispenser until water runs 

steady. Additional flushing may be required in some households where water is 

of poor quality.
