Filter Bypass Plug

The water filter cartridge is located in the upper right-hand corner of the fresh food compartment, right below the temperature controls.

The filter cartridge should be replaced every six months or earlier if the flow of water to the water dispenser or icemaker decreases.

Installing the Filter Cartridge

1	If you are replacing the cartridge, first
	remove the old one by slowly turning it
	to the left. Do not pull down on the
	cartridge. A small amount of water may
	drip down.

2 Remove and discard the plastic cap from the new cartridge.

3 Fill the replacement cartridge with water from the tap.

4 Apply the month and year sticker to the cartridge to remind you to replace the filter in six months.

5 Place the top of the cartridge up inside the cartridge holder. Do not push it up into the holder.

6 Slowly turn it to the right until the filter cartridge stops. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. As you turn the cartridge, it will automatically raise itself into position.

7 Run water from the dispenser for 1 minute (about a half gallon) to clear the system and prevent sputtering.

NOTE: A newly-installed water filter cartridge may cause water to spurt from the dispenser.

Filter Bypass Plug

You must use the filter bypass plug when a replacement filter cartridge is not available. The dispenser and the icemaker will not operate without the filter or filter bypass plug.
