USING THE REFRIGERATOR: Water Filter Cartridge - MWF
Water Filter Cartridge - MWF(On some models.)
Water filter cartridge
The water filter cartridge is located in the back upper
right corner of the refrigerator compartment.
When to replace the filter on models with a
replacement indicator light
There is a replacement indicator light for the water filter
cartridge on the dispenser. 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 icemaker decreases.
When to replace the filter on models without
a replacement indicator light
The filter cartridge should be replaced every six months
or earlier if the flow of water to the dispenser or icemaker
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.
Installing the filter cartridge
1. If you are replacing a SmartWater™ cartridge with an
adapter, it must be removed before installing the
cartridge. To remove the adapter, turn it to the left
about 1/4 turn.
If you are replacing a Water by Culligan cartridge,
leave the adapter in place. This adapter will stay in the
refrigerator when you replace future cartridges.
2. On models ithout a replacement indicator light, apply
the month and year sticker to the new cartridge to
remind you to replace the filter in six months.
3. Fill the replacement cartridge with water from the tap
to allow for better flow from the dispenser immediately
after installation.
4. 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.
5. 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.
6. Run water from the dispenser 1-1/2 gallons (about
three minutes) to clear the system and prevent
sputtering.
7. Press and hold the WATER FILTER pad
(on some models) on the dispenser for
3 seconds.
NOTE: A newly-installed water filter
cartridge may cause water to spurt from
the dispenser upon first use.
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.
To use the filter bypass plug on Water by Culligan
models, you must first remove the filter adapter from the
cartridge holder by turning it to the left.
For the maximum benefit of your filtration system,
Crosley recommends the use of GE Appliances branded
SmartWater™ filters only. Using GE Appliances branded
filters in Crosley refrigerators provides optimal
performance and reliability. SmartWater™ filters meet
rigorous industry NSF standards for safety and quality
that are important for products that are filtering your
water. Crosley has not qualified non-GE Appliances
branded filters for use in Crosley refrigerators and there
is no assurance that non-GE Appliances branded filters
meet Crosley standards for quality, performance and
reliability.
