WATER FILTER INSTALLATION
■
Locate the water filter compartment in the lower left-hand
side of the refrigerator compartment. Push on the right side of
the filter door to open.
■
Align the arrow on the water filter cap with the cutout notch in
the filter housing and insert filter.
■
Once the filter is inserted, turn the filter clockwise 90°
(1/4 turn) until it locks into the housing.
■
Push water filter door closed to latch.
■
Flush 3 gallons of water through the water system to clear air
from the water line and to keep the dispenser from dripping
and/or avoiding decreased dispenser flow.
NOTE:
If the filter is not installed correctly, water may
dispense at a lower flow rate and there will be slower ice
production. Improper filter installation may also cause the
water filter housing to leak.

(packed with the Door Handle Installation Instructions) into
the bottom hinge pin until it is fully engaged in the alignment
