food compartment.
Replacing the Water Filter
In general, you should change the water filter every six
months to ensure the highest possible water quality.
Water
Filter Status
on the user interface prompts you to replace
the filter after a standard amount of water (200 gallons/757
liters for

has flowed through the system.
If your refrigerator has not been used for a period of time
(during moving for example), change the filter before
reinstalling the refrigerator.
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of
unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after
the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction may be used
on disinfected waters that may contain filterable cysts.
