28Changing The Filter

To replace your pure advantageTM water filter:

It is not necessary to turn the water supply off to change the filter. Be ready to wipe up any small amounts of water released during the filter replacement. The bottom of the filter housing includes two small water drainage holes, so be sure to remove any stored food from the top shelf.

NOTE

The o-rings on a new water filter are lubricated. To ensure a good seal, please do not remove this lubricant.

1 Turn Off the ice maker power switch (see page 23 for more about turning off the ice maker).

2 Push the filter release button to the right of the cartridge to disconnect it.

3 Slide the old filter cartridge straight out of the housing and discard it.

4 Unpackage the new filter cartridge and slide it gently into the filter housing until it stops against the snap-in connector at the back of the housing.

5Push firmly until the cartridge snaps into place. When fully engaged, the front of the filter cartridge should be flush with the filter release button.

6Turn On the ice maker power switch (see page 23 for

more about turning on the ice maker).

7 Press a drinking glass against the water dispenser while checking for any leaks at the filter housing. Any spurts and sputters that occur as the system purges air out of the dispenser system are normal.

8After filling one glass of water, continue flushing the

system for about three minutes.

9Press and hold the Filter Status button on the Ice & Water Dispenser control panel for 3 seconds. The light flashes red, amber, and green to indicate the Filter Status has been reset.
