Gibson TM* Ice and Water Filter (some models)
NOTE: If you purchased a refrigerator with a Gibson TM * Ice and Water filter, please read the following use and care
information. This ice and water filter system filters water to your ice maker and water dispenser. It is located in the upper
right back corner of the fresh food compartment.
System Startup:
Water supply does not need to be turned off, however, do not use ice and water dispenser while installingfilter. The filter
cartridge has already been installed in the filter housing at the factory. Refer to the How The Water Dispenser Works section
to properly fill the system with water. Changing the Filter:
Order new filter cartridges through the
dealer where you bought the refrigerator,
or contact the Consumer Assistance
Center at 1-800-944-9044. It might be
good to order some filter cartridges when
you first install your refrigerator. Be sure
to ask for the RG-100 Gibson TM*
replacement cartridge.
The Gibson TM * NGRG-2000
Ice and Water Filter System
with the RG-100 cartridge is
tested and certified by NSF
International, the nationally
recognized and respected, not for profit,
certification organization for public health
safety. The GibsonTM*system is tested and
certified to ANSI/NSF Standard 42. See
)erformance data sheet for specifications.
This system should not be used on water
that is microbiologically unsafe or with water
of unknown quality unless the water has
been adequately disinfected before or after
traveling through the filtration system.
Water conditions vary throughout the wodd, 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.
2. Set ice maker wire signal arm to the OFF (up) position (See illustrationon
page 13).
3. 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.
4. Rinse out cup under running water.
5. 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 dudng 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 Consumer Assistance Center.
6. Discard old filter cartridge.
7. Remove new filter cartddge from packaging and place in cup. The end
with the small o-ring should be up, out of the cup.
8. 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 TM logo facing outward. Do Not
Tighten Past Stop.
9. Set ice maker wire signal arm to the ON (down) 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.
