Water Filtration System
The water lter is located in the upper right-hand corner of the
refrigerator compartment.
Water Filter Status Lights
When a water lter has been installed in the refrigerator the water
lter status lights will remind you when it is time to order and
replace your water lter.
■ The Order light (yellow) will illuminate when 90% of the
volume of water for which the lter is rated has passed
through the lter OR 5 months have passed since the lter
was installed.
■ The Replace light (red) will illuminate when the rated volume
of water has passed through the lter OR 6 months have
passed since the lter was installed. A new water lter should
be installed immediately when the Replace light is illuminated.
The disposable water lter should be replaced at least every 6
months OR earlier if the ow of water to your water dispenser or
ice maker decreases noticeably.
Reset Water Filter Status
After replacing the water lter, press and hold Reset Filter or Filter
Reset (depending on your model) for 3 seconds. The Order and
Replace indicator lights will blink and then go off when the system
is reset. See “Using the Controls.”
Replacing the Water Filter
To purchase a replacement water lter, model UKF8001AXX-750
or UKF8001AXX-200, see “Accessories.”
IMPORTANT: Air trapped in the water system may cause water
and lter to eject. Always dispense water for at least 2 minutes
before removing the lter or blue bypass cap.
1. Turn lter counterclockwise to remove.
2. Remove sealing label from replacement lter and insert the
lter end into the lter head.
3. Turn the lter clockwise until it stops. Snap the lter cover
closed.
4. Flush the water system. See “Water Dispenser” or “Water and
Ice Dispenser.”
NOTE: The dispenser feature may be used without a water lter
installed. Your water will not be ltered. If this option is chosen,
replace the lter with the blue bypass cap.
REFRIGERATOR CARE
Cleaning
Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically.
However, clean both sections about once a month to avoid
buildup of odors. Wipe up spills immediately.
IMPORTANT:
■ Because air circulates between both sections, any odors
formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must
thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To avoid
odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods
tightly.
■ For stainless steel models, stainless steel is corrosion
resistant and not corrosion-proof. To help avoid corrosion of
your stainless steel, keep your surfaces clean by using the
following cleaning instructions.
To Clean Your Refrigerator:
NOTE: Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window
sprays, scouring cleansers, ammable uids, cleaning waxes,
concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing
petroleum products on plastic parts, interior and door liners or
gaskets. Do not use paper towels, scouring pads, or other harsh
cleaning tools.
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior
surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a
mild detergent in warm water.
3. Clean the exterior surfaces.
Painted metal: Wash painted metal exteriors with a clean,
soft cloth or sponge and a mild detergent in warm water.
Rinse surfaces with clean, warm water and dry immediately to
avoid water spots.
Stainless steel: Wash stainless steel surfaces with a clean,
soft cloth or sponge and a mild detergent in warm water.
Rinse surfaces with clean, warm water and dry immediately to
avoid water spots.
NOTE: When cleaning stainless steel, always wipe in the
direction of the grain to avoid cross-grain scratching.
4. There is no need for routine condenser cleaning in normal
home operating environments. If the environment is
particularly greasy or dusty, or there is signicant pet trafc
in the home, the condenser should be cleaned every 2 to 3
months to ensure maximum efciency.
If you need to clean the condenser:
■ Remove the base grille.
■ Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush to clean the grille,
the open areas behind the grille and the front surface area
of the condenser.
■ Replace the base grille when nished.
5. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or
of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before
or after the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction
may be used on disinfected waters that may contain
filterable cysts.
