About the water filter.
(on some models)
Water Filter Cartridge
The water filter cartridge is located inside
the cartridge holder in the back upper right
corner of the refrigerator compartment.
NOTE: Some models ship with the filter
bypass plug in place of the filter cartridge.
The filter bypass plug needs to be removed
before the filter cartridge is installed. Keep
the filter bypass plug for future use.
When to Replace the Filter
The filter cartridge should be replaced
every six months or earlier if the flow of
water to the icemaker and dispenser
decreases.
Installing the Filter Cartridge
If you are replacing the cartridge,
first remove the old one. To open the
cartridge cover, push in where indicated
and the cover will drop down.
Remove the cartridge by slowly rotating
it to the left. A small amount of water
may drip down.
CAUTION:
If air has been
trapped in the system, the filter cartridge
may be ejected as it is removed. Use caution
when removing.
Mark your calendar to remind you to
replace the filter cartridge in six months.
Remove the protective foil from the end
of the cartridge.
Position the cartridge inside the
cartridge holder and slowly rotate the
cartridge to the right until it stops.
When the cartridge is properly installed,
you will feel it “click” as it locks into
place. The blade on the end of the
cartridge should be positioned
vertically. Do not overtighten.
Close the cartridge cover.
Run water from the dispenser for
3 minutes (about 1 1 ⁄
2
gallons) to clear
the system and prevent sputtering.
See To Use the Dispenser section.
NOTE: A newly-installed water filter cartridge
may cause water to spurt from the dispenser.
Filter Bypass Plug
You must use the filter bypass plug when
a replacement filter cartridge is not
available. The dispenser and the icemaker
will not operate without the filter or filter
bypass plug.
