18 changing the water filter electrolux side by side refrigeration
If you purchased a refrigerator with a water filter
(ice and water models), please read the following care
and use information.
An external water filter and connection kit has been
supplied for use with your ice & water refrigerator.
The external filter design allows more space within the
refrigerator and provides double the life of previous filters
reducing the cost of replacement. The filter is designed
to significantly reduce chlorine, taste, odour, heavy metals,
turbidity ( cloudiness) and scale build up. The included
plastic (LLDPE) water tube allows quick connection to the
filter and is designed for high durability and kink resistance.
This filter is designed only to be used with a potable
water supply. It should not be used on water that is micro
biologically unsafe or with water of unknown quality. The
filter should be replaced every 12 months. The service life of
the filter may be reduced in water supplies that contain an
excess of particles or other impurities. Reduced flow rate is
an indication that a new filter is required. Failure to replace
the filter when required can affect the function of the ice
maker. Service calls caused by a failure to replace the filter
are not covered by warranty (see page 20).
When to change the filter
Water conditions vary throughout the world, but changing
the water filter every 12 months will ensure the highest
possible water quality. The electronics in your refrigerator
will track the amount of water usage and advise on when
the filter should be replaced. If the filter has not been in use
for a while (because of a move for example), change the
filter before you reinstall the refrigerator.
Replacement filters can be purchased from the nearest
Electrolux Service Centre (see page 20 for contact details).
The filter change interval can be reset by pressing the
clock button.
Changing the filter
Turn off water supply at the tap. Ensure that the ice maker
switch is in the “O” (OFF) position.
To change the filter:
1. Turn off the water supply.
2. Release the pressure in the water lines by holding
a container against the water dispenser paddle on
the refrigerator until the pressure has been released.
3. Turn off the refrigerator at the power point and remove
the plug from the socket.
4. Depress the collet (see illustration below) and pull the
tube out of each end of the filter.
5. Refit the tubes into the new filter to the stops (about
15mm). Ensure that you observe the flow direction.
Write the fitment date in the space provided on the filter.
6. Gently pull back on the tube to ensure that it is secure.
7. Turn the water supply back on and check for leaks.
8. Plug the unit back in and turn the power supply back
on to the refrigerator.
9. Purge and dispose of approximately 5 litres of water through
the water dispenser to condition the filter and clear the
water lines of air and impurities. It may take up to a minute
to get a full flow of water from the dispenser. Do not be
alarmed if there is an initial black colour to the water.
This is residual carbon dust from the filter and is non-toxic.
10. Once the lines have been purged, dispose of the first
few batches of ice to ensure that impurities have been
flushed from this part of the system.
