WATER FILTER REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
(SELECTED MODELS)
WARNING
To avoid serious illness or death, do not use the refrigerated water where the water is unsafe or of
unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after filtration.
CAUTION
After installing a new water filter, always dispense water for two minutes before removing the filter
for any reason. Air trapped in the system may cause water and the cartridge to eject. Use caution
when removing.
The bypass cap does not filter water. Be sure to have a replacement cartridge available when a
filter change is required.
If the water filtration system has been allowed to freeze, replace the filter cartridge.
If the system has not been used for several months, or water has an unpleasant taste or odor,
flush the system by dispensing water for two or three minutes. If the unpleasant taste or odor
persists, change the filter cartridge.
4.1 Initial
Installation
The water filter is located in the upper right-hand corner of the fresh food
compartment.
Remove the blue bypass cap and retain for future use.
Remove the sealing label from the end of the filter and insert the filter into
the filter head.
Rotate gently clockwise until the filter stops. Snap the filter cover closed.
Reduce water spurts by flushing air from the system. Run water continuously for two minutes
through the dispenser until the water runs steadily. During initial use, allow
about a one to two minute delay in water dispersal to allow the internal
water tank to fill.
Additional flushing may be required in some households where water is of
poor quality.
4.2 Replacing
Water
Filter
IMPORTANT: Air trapped in the system may cause water and the
cartridge to eject. Use caution when removing.
Turn the filter counterclockwise until it releases from the filter head.
Drain the water from the filter into a sink and dispose of the filter in normal household trash.
Wipe excess water from the filter cover and install the new filter as described in
Initial Installation
above.
The filter should be changed at least every 12 months.
IMPORTANT:
The condition of the water and the amount used determines the life span of the water
filter cartridge. If the water use is high, or if the water is of poor quality, replacement may need to take
place more often.
The dispenser feature may be used without a water filter cartridge. If this option is chosen, replace the
filter with the blue bypass cap.
