FILTERS AND ACCESSORIES
Water Filtration System
Install the Water Filter
1. Locate the accessory packet in the refrigerator and remove
the water lter.
2. Take the water lter out of its packaging and remove the cover
from the O-rings. Be sure the O-rings are still in place after the
cover is removed.
3. The water lter compartment is located in the right-hand side
of the refrigerator ceiling. Push up on the compartment door
to release the catch, and then lower the door.
4. Align the arrow on the water lter label with the cutout notch
in the lter housing and insert the lter into the housing.
5. Turn the lter clockwise 90 degrees (1/4 turn) until it locks into
the housing.
NOTE: If the lter is not correctly locked into the housing, the
water dispenser will not operate. Water will not ow from the
dispenser.
6. While the compartment door is still open, lift the lter up into
the compartment. Then, close the lter compartment door
completely.
7. Flush the water system. See “Flushing the Water Filter” in the
“Water and Ice Dispensers” section.
IMPORTANT: If you do not ush the water system, you may
experience dripping and/or decreased ow from the water
dispenser.
The Water Filter Status Light
Press OPTIONS on the control panel to launch the Options
menu. Press OPTIONS, under Filter Status, again to display the
percentage of lter life remaining (from 99% to 0%). Press ICE/
WATER, under Back, to return to the Normal screen.
The Water Filter status lights will help you know when to change
your water lter.
ORDER FILTER (yellow) - it is almost time to change the water
lter. While you are dispensing water, “Order Filter” will blink
seven times and sound an alert tone three times.
REPLACE FILTER (red) - Replace the water lter. While you
are dispensing water, “Replace Filter” will blink seven times
and an alert tone will sound three times.
RESET the Water Filter status tracking feature. After you
replace the disposable lter with a new lter, closing the lter
compartment door will automatically reset the lter status
tracking feature. See “Using the Control(s).”
NOTE: “REPLACE FILTER” will remain illuminated if a lter is
not installed or is installed incorrectly.
Replace the Water Filter
To purchase a replacement water lter, see “Accessories” in the
User Guide, Use and Care Guide, or User Instructions.
Replace the disposable water lter when indicated on the water
lter status display or at least every 6 months. If water ow to
your dispenser or ice maker decreases noticeably, change the
water lter sooner.
1. Locate the water lter compartment in the right-hand side
of the refrigerator ceiling. Push up to release and lower the
compartment door.
2. Turn the water lter counterclockwise (to the left), and pull it
straight out of the compartment.
NOTE: There may be some water in the lter. Some spilling
may occur. Use a towel to wipe up any spills.
3. Install the replacement water lter by following steps 2
through 7 in the “Install the Water Filter” section.
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.
