Water filter cartridge
The water filter cartridge is located behind the top
access panel.
When to replace the filter
There is a replacement indicator light for the water
filter cartridge on the temperature control panel.
This light will turn orange to tell you that you need to
replace the filter soon.
The filter cartridge should be replaced when the
replacement indicator light turns red or if the flow of
water to the dispenser or ice maker decreases.
Removing the filter cartridge
If you are replacing the cartridge, first remove the old
one by slowly turning it to the left. Do not pull down on
the cartridge. A small amount of water may drip down.
NOTE: To reduce the risk associated with property
damage due to water leakage, read and follow
instructions before installation and use of this
system. Installation and use MUST comply with all
state and local plumbing codes.
Installing the filter cartridge
1
Fill the replacement cartridge with water from
the tap to allow for better flow immediately after
installation.
2
Line up the arrow on
the cartridge and the
cartridge holder. Place
the top of the new
cartridge up inside the
holder. Do not push it up
into the holder.
3
Slowly turn it to the right until the filter cartridge
stops. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. As you turn the
cartridge, it will automatically raise itself into
position. The cartridge will move about 1/2 turn.
4
Press and hold the RESET WATER FILTER pad on
the temperature control panel for three seconds
to clear the red or amber light.
NOTE: A newly installed water filter cartridge may
cause water to spurt into the ice maker.
Filter bypass plug
You must use the filter bypass plug when a
replacement filter cartridge is not available. The ice
maker will not operate without the filter or filter bypass
plug.
