Setting up your French Door Refrigerator
Installing the water filter
1.Remove the water filter cover( 1 )
2.Remove the fixed cap by turning it counter clockwise. Keep the cap in a safe place for later use if you don’t use a filter.
3.Remove the water filter from the box and put a replacement indicator sticker on the filter as shown.
Place a sticker on the filter that dates six months in the future. For example, if you install the water filter in March, put the “SEP” sticker on the filter to remind you to replace in September. That way you’ll know when it is time to replace the filter. Normally, a filter life is about 6 months.
4.Remove the filter cap and insert the filter into the filter housing.
5.Slowly turn the water filter 90º clockwise to align with the printing mark on the cover, locking the filter in position. Make sure to align the water filter label mark with center of cover filter printing as illustrated.
Remember, do not
You should remove the right side upper glass shelf before installing water filters.

Removing any residual matter inside the water supply line after installing the water filter.
1.Turn ON the main water supply.
2.Run water through the dispenser until the water runs clear 3L. This will clean
the water supply system and remove air from the lines.
3. Additional flushing may be required in some households. But , the filter will have an operational life proportional to the quality of the water supplied). The time is not guaranteed.
4. Open the Refrigerator door and make sure there are no water leaks coming from the water filter.
Be sure to flush the dispenser thoroughly, otherwise water may drip from the dispenser. This means that there is still air in the line.
Reverse Osmosis Water Supply
IMPORTANT : The pressure of the water supply coming out of a reverse osmosis system going to the water inlet valve of the refrigerator needs to be between 35 and 120 psi (241 and 827 kPa).
If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is connected to your cold water supply, the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system needs to be a minimum of 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa.)
If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less than 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa):
•Check to see whether the sediment filter in the reverse osmosis system is blocked. Replace the filter if necessary.
•Allow the storage tank on the reverse osmosis system to refill after heavy usage.
•If your refrigerator has a water filter, it may further reduce the water pressure when used in conjunction with a reverse osmosis system. Remove the water filter.
If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed, qualified plumber.
