WARNING!

Poisoning Hazard

To avoid serious illness or death, do not use the refrigerator where water is unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after use of filter.

Failure to do so can result in death or injury to persons.

Important!

After installing a new water filter, always dispense water for two minutes before removing the filter for any reason. Air trapped in system may cause water and cartridge to eject. Use caution when removing.

The bypass cap does not filter water when fitted. Be sure to have replacement cartridge available when filter change is required.

If water filtration system has been allowed to freeze, replace filter cartridge.

If the water system has not been used for several months, or water has an unpleasant taste or odor, flush system by dispensing water for two to three minutes. If unpleasant taste or odor persists, change filter cartridge.

Initial installation

The water filter is located in the upper right-hand corner of the fresh food compartment.

1Open filter housing by pressing the tab at the front end of the housing.

2 Remove the blue bypass cap and retain for later use.

3 Remove the sealing label from end of filter and insert into filter head.

4 Rotate gently clockwise until filter stops. Snap filter cover closed.

5 Reduce water spurts by flushing air from system.

Run water continuously for two minutes through dispenser until water runs steady. During initial use, allow about a one- to two-minute delay in water dispersal to allow internal water tank to fill.

Additional flushing may be required in some households where water is of poor quality.
