Safety Instructions

When to Replace the Filter on Models Without a Replacement Indicator Light

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

Removing the Filter Cartridge

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.

Installing the Filter Cartridge

If you are replacing a SmartWater cartridge with an adapter, it must be removed before installing the cartridge. To remove the adapter, turn it to the left about 1/4 turn.

With Adapter Without Adapter

(appearance may vary)

On models without a replacement indicator light, apply the month and year sticker to the new cartridge to remind you to replace the filter in six months.

Fill the replacement cartridge with water from the tap to allow for better flow from the dispenser immediately after installation.

Line up the arrow on the cartridge and the cartridge holder. Place the top of the new cartridge up inside the holder. Do not push it up into the holder.

Cartridge Holder

Run water from the dispenser for 3 minutes (about

1-1/2 gallons) to clear the system and prevent sputtering.

Press and hold the WATER FILTER pad (on some models) on the dispenser for 3 seconds.

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.
