Water Filter Cartridge
The water filter cartridge is located in the left-hand
refrigerator door behind the rectangular access panel.
When to Replace the Filter Cartridge
The Replace Filter message on the control panel

be replaced soon. The Filter Expired message will
illuminate when the water filter cartridge needs to be
replaced. The water filter can be replaced earlier if the
flow of water to the dispenser or icemaker decreases.

first remove the previous one

slowly turning it to the left,
about a ¼ turn. The filter
should automatically release
itself when you have rotated it
far enough to the left. A small
amount of water may drip
down.
