Water Filter Cartridge

The water filter cartridge is located in the back upper right corner of the refrigerator compartment.

When to Replace the Filter on Models With a Replacement Indicator Light

There is a replacement indicator light for the water filter cartridge on the dispenser. This light will turn orange to tell you that you need to replace the filter soon.

The filter cartridge should be replaced when the replacement indicator light turns red or if the flow of water to the dispenser or icemaker decreases.

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.

If you are replacing a Water by Culligan cartridge, leave the adapter in place. This adapter will stay in the refrigerator when you replace future cartridges.

For the maximum benefit of your filtration system, GE recommends the use of GE branded SmartWater filters only. Using GE branded filters in GE and Hotpoint refrigerators provides optimal performance and reliability. GE branded SmartWater filters are always the right choice because they are patented and designed specifically for GE products. GE SmartWater filters meet rigorous industry NSF standards for safety and quality that are important for products that are filtering your water. GE has not qualified non-GE branded filters for use in GE and Hotpoint refrigerators and there is no assurance that non-GE branded filters meet GE’s standards for quality, performance and reliability.
