Water Filter
The “Filter Indicator” Light
The filter indicator light alerts you when it is time to change the filter cartridge. If you don’t change it often enough, water quality will be affected. You should change the filter at least every 6 months, or when water flow from the dispenser or ice maker decreases noticeably. Please note that you may have to change the filter more often than every 6 months, depending on local water conditions.
Filter Replacement
1.Remove the old filter by turning the filter cartridge handle counterclockwise.
2.The cartridge will eject slightly from the filter housing.
3.Pull out the cartridge from the filter housing.
Caution
Water may be retained in the old filter cartridge. This could cause some water spillage through the filter housing drain.
4.Remove the protective heat seal from the new filter cartridge. Insert it into the filter housing with the filter cartridge handle in the vertical position. Then push the filter cartridge into the housing until it stops.
5.Gently turn the cartridge handle clockwise until it stops. The cartridge handle should now be horizontal.
6.Run the refrigerator water dispenser for 5 minutes after replacing the filter to flush out the water tank. Discard the water.
