Replacing the Water Filter
In general, you should change the water
filter every six months to ensure the highest
possible water quality. The
Water Filter
Status light on the user interface prompts you
to replace the filter after a standard amount of
water (200 gallons/757 liters for PureSource
Ultra
TM
)
has flowed through the system. The
water filter status light on this model is not
performance tested or certified by NSF.
If your refrigerator has not been used for a
period of time (during moving for example),
change the filter before reinstalling the
refrigerator.
Filter Cartridge
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.

To replace your PureSource Ultra

It is not necessary to turn the water supply off
to change the filter. Be ready to wipe up any
small amounts of water released during the filter
replacement.

face of the filter.
3 Slide the old water filter cartridge straight

4 Unpackage the new filter cartridge. Using
the alignment guide, slide it gently into the
filter housing until it stops against the snap-in
connector at the back of the housing.

place (you should hear a click as the
