OFF ON

NOTE: See the “Changing the Light Bulbs” section for information on changing the dispenser light bulb.

The Dispenser Lock (on some models)

Your dispenser can be turned off for easy cleaning or to prevent accidental dispensing by small children and pets.

NOTE: The lock feature does not shut off power to the product, to the ice maker, or to the dispenser light. It simply deactivates the dispenser levers.

To turn off the dispenser, press the LOCK button. The indicator will appear above the LOCK button and the ice and water dispensers will not work. To unlock the dispenser, press the UNLOCK button until the indicator appears. Then continue to dispense ice or water as usual.

Changing the Water Filter Cartridge

The base grille water filter is located below the freezer compartment door. Depending on your model, you may have a filter that is installed behind the base grille (Style 1) or a filter that is installed through the base grille (Style 2).

Style 1: Behind the base grille filter

1.Remove the base grille (see “Door Removal” section). Rotate the cartridge counterclockwise to a vertical position and pull the filter cartridge out.

NOTE: There will be water in the cartridge. Some spilling may occur.

2.Take the new cartridge out of its packaging and remove protective cover from o-rings.

3.Push the new filter cartridge into the base until it stops. Rotate the cartridge clockwise to a horizontal position. Flush the water system (see “Flushing the Water System After Replacing Filter” later in this section).

Water Filter Status Light

The water filter status light will help you know when to change your water filter cartridge. The light is located at the top of the refrigerator compartment. The light will change from green to yellow. This tells you that it is almost time to change the water filter cartridge (90% of the filter life has been used). It is recommended that you replace the base grille water filter cartridge when the water filter indicator light changes to red OR water flow to your water dispenser or ice maker decreases noticeably. See “Changing the Water Filter Cartridge” later in this section.

After changing the water filter cartridge, reset the water filter status light by pressing the light switch 5 times within 10 seconds. The indicator light will change from red to green when the system is reset.

Non-indicator Water Filter (on some models)

If your refrigerator does not have the water filter status light, you should change the water filter cartridge every 6 to 9 months depending upon your usage. If the water flow to the water dispenser or ice maker decreases noticeably before 6 months have passed, replace the water filter cartridge more often.

Style 2: Through the base grille filter

1.Locate the water filter cartridge cap in the front base grille. Rotate the cap counterclockwise to a vertical position and pull the cap and filter cartridge out through the base grille.

NOTE: There will be water in the cartridge. Some spilling may occur.

2.Remove the cartridge cap by sliding it off the end of the old cartridge. The cap will slide to the left or right. DO NOT DISCARD THE CAP.

3.Take the new cartridge out of its packaging and remove protective cover from o-rings.

4.Slide the cartridge cap onto the new cartridge. See illustration in Step 2.
