section

Changing the Filter:

Water conditions vary throughout the world, but changing the water filter every
6 - 9 months normally will ensure the highest possible water quality. The Filter
Status light will turn red after 400 gallons of water has flowed through the ice
and water dispenser {some models). Also, If the filter has been in a refrigerator
that has not been in use for awhile (during moving for example), change the
filter before reinstalling the refrigerator. The dispenser system will also operate
without filtration (with filter cartridge removed).

To change filter:

It is not necessary to turn the water supply off to change the filter.

1. Open freezer door and leave open until filter change is complete.

Turn the ice maker’s power switch to the Off (“O”) position (See illustration
on page 14).

Hold filter cup firmly, and unscrew towards left (Some water could

leak out as you remove cup. This is normal.). Filter cartridge should come
down with cup. If cartridge remains in housing, pull down gently, while
twisting filter back and forth.

Rinse out cup under running water.

The large o-ring that seals the filter system sets in the o-ring groove
down inside the cup. Should the o-ring fall out during filter cartridge

replacement, simply place it back in the groove prior to screwing the cup
back in place. If the o-ring becomes damaged, you will need to order one
from the

Customer Care Center.

Discard old filter cartridge.

Remove new filter cartridge from packaging and place in cup. The end

with the small o-ring should be up, out of the cup.

Screw cup, with filter, back onto housing. Do Not Use Wrench To Reinstall
Cup. Filter cartridge will self-align as cup is tightened. Be sure cup is
completely tightened with

PureSource™

logo facing outward. Do Not

Tighten Past Stop.

Turn the ice maker’s power switch to the On (“I”) position.

10. Check for leaks. Open refrigerator door. Wipe any water droplets from the

filter cup. Fill a glass with water. If there is a leak, unscrew filter cup, and
reinsert the filter cartridge. Check placement of large O-ring. Reinstall
filter cup, making certain it is tightened completely.

11. To condition filter system and purge air from water line, fill a glass with

water. Continue flushing the system for approximately 3 minutes to assure
that the purest water possible is stored in the water tank.
