Automatic Ice and Water Dispenser

PureSource2TM * Ice and Water Front Filter (some models)

NOTE: If you purchased a refrigerator with a PureSource2TM * Ice andWater front filter, please read the following use and care information. This ice and water filter system filters water to your ice maker and water dispenser. It is located in the upper right front corner of the fresh food compartment.

System Startup:

Water supply does not need to be turned off, however, do not use ice and water dispenser while installing filter.

The filter cartridge has already been installed in the filter housing at the factory. Refer to the How The Water Dispenser Works section to properly fill the system with water.

Order new filter cartridges through the dealer where you bought the refrigerator, contact the Customer Care Center at 1-800-944-9044, or go to our web site at www.frigidaire.com. It might be good to order some filter cartridges when you first install your refrigerator. Be sure to ask for the FC-100 PureSource™* replacement cartridge.

The PureSource2TM* Ice and

Water Filter System NGFC 2000 with the PureSource2TM* cartridge FC 100 is tested and certified by NSF International,

the nationally recognized and respected, not for profit, certification organization for public health safety. The PureSource2TM* Filter system is tested and certified to ANSI/ NSF Standards 42 and 53. See performance data sheet for specifications. This system should not be used on water that is microbiologically unsafe or with water of unknown quality unless the water has been adequately disinfected before or after traveling through the filtration system.

Rated Capacity - 400 gallons

Rated service flow - .5 GPM

Maximum Rated Pressure - 100 PSI

Maximum Operating Temp. - 100° F

Changing the Filter:

Water conditions vary throughout the world, but changing the water filter every 6 - 9 months normally will ensure the highest possible water quality. The Filter Status light will turn red after approximately 400 gallons of water has flowed through the ice and water dispenser. Also, if the filter has been in a refrigerator that has not been in use for awhile (during moving for example), change the filter before reinstalling the refrigerator. The dispenser system will also operate without filtration (with filter cartridge removed and bypass installed).

To change filter:

It is not necessary to turn the water supply off to change the filter.

1.Turn the ice maker’s power switch to the Off (“O”) position (See illustration on page 16).

2.Push the Filter Release Button, located to the right of the filter cartridge, to release the filter from the housing. To minimize the possibility of the filter falling out of the housing during removal, it would be best to hold the filter as it moves out toward you.

NOTE: A small amount of water may be released during this operation. You should have a paper towel or dish cloth handy to wipe up any water that may drip out of the filter or housing. Two small holes near the back of the housing have been added for any excess water to escape. It would be best to clear away any food near this area on the top shelf in advance of removing the filter.

3.Pull the old filter cartridge straight out of the housing.

4.Discard the old filter.

5.Remove the new filter cartridge from the packaging and insert into the filter housing the same way the old one came out.

6.When the cartridge is almost in, you will feel it stop against the clip assembly in the back of the housing. The clip assembly holds the filter cartridge firmly in place. At this point, you will need to push firmly until the cartridge snaps fully in place.When completely in place, the front of the filter cartridge will be flush with the front of the housing.

7.Turn the ice maker’s power switch to the On (“I”) position.

8.Fill a glass with water. As you are doing this, check for leaks at the filter housing. There will be noticable spurts and sputters as the system pushes the air out through the system and out the dispenser nozzle.This is normal.

9.After you have run one glass of water, continue to flush the system for approximately 3 minutes to assure that the purest water possible is stored in the water storage tank.

IMPORTANT: Resetting The Filter Status Light (some models)

After replacing the filter cartridge, it will be necessary to press the Filter Reset button located on the ice and water dispenser. This will reset the Filter Status light. Push the reset button until the green, red and amber lights flash (10-15 seconds). Please refer to the complete dispenser operating instructions attached to the inside of the freezer door.

* White Westinghouse uses the name CrystalClear instead of PureSource, but they are the same filter.
