Water Filter Cartridge
The water filter cartridge is located in the fresh food
interior on the left side wall, near the top.
Select models use radio frequency identification (RFID)
to detect leaks and monitor filter status. The RFID
technology is certified by the FCC.
When to Replace the Filter Cartridge
The filter cartridge should be replaced every six months
or earlier if 170 gallons (643.52 liters) of water has been
dispensed or the flow of water to the dispenser or icemaker
decreases.
Touch Screen Models: A filter status message will
appear on the screen when the water filter needs to be
replaced. The filter status will automatically update when
the filter is replaced.
Non-touch Screen Models: A filter indicator light will
illuminate on the screen when the water filter needs to
be replaced.
Removing the Filter Cartridge
DO NOT TWIST CARTRIDGE! Twisting may damage
refrigerator or filter.
1. Remove the old cartridge by opening the filter door
and pulling on the bottom of the cartridge to allow it to
swing outward.
2.
When the cartridge can no
longer swing, gently pull to
unseat from the cartridge
holder. A small amount of
water may drip out.
DO NOT TWIST CARTRIDGE!
Installing the Filter Cartridge
1. Center the cartridge with cartridge holder with the
word FRONT facing outward. Push the cartridge
inward until it is fully seated. FRONT should be
centered with the cartridge holder for proper
installation. The RED indicators should not be visible.
2. While continuing to ensure cartridge is fully seated in
the holder, gently swing the filter inward until it is in
position. If filter will not swing easily, check to ensure
filter is properly aligned and fully seated within the
cartridge holder.
3.
For dispenser models – Run 2 gallons of water
through the cold water dispenser (about 5 minutes)
to remove air from the system. A newly installed filter
cartridge will cause water to spurt from the dispenser.

spray. NOTE: It is normal for water to appear discolored
during the initial system flush. Water color will return to
normal after the first few minutes of dispensing.
For icemaker-only models – Discard the first bin of
ice to allow air to purge from the system. A newly
installed filter cartridge will cause water to spurt into
the icemaker body, which could lead to ice droplets
around the icemaker area. NOTE: It is normal for
these droplets and initial ice production to appear
discolored during the initial system flush. Ice color will
return to normal after the first bin of ice production.
DO NOT use the hot water dispenser or Autofill
function until all air is removed from the system.
6. Reset Filter status message (non-touch screen models).
Filter Bypass Plug
To reduce the risk of property damage due to water
leakage, you MUST use the filter bypass plug when
a replacement filter cartridge is not available. Some
models do not come equipped with the filter bypass
plug. To obtain a free bypass plug, visit us on-line at
geappliances.com/service. In Canada, visit
geappliances.ca/service. The dispenser and icemaker
will not operate without either the filter or the bypass plug
installed. The bypass plug is installed in the same way
as a filter cartridge.
