The water filter status light

The water filter status light will help you know when to

change your water filter cartridge. The light is located at the top of the refrigerator compartment. The light will change from green to yellow. This tells you that it is almost

time to change the water filter cartridge (90% of the filter life has been used). It is recommended that you replace

the water filter cartridge when the water filter status light changes to red OR water flow to your water dispenser or

ice maker decreases noticeably. (See "Changing a water filter cartridge" later in this section.)

NOTE: Do not use with water that is microbiologicaliy unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.

Changing a water filter cartridge

The water filter is located below the freezer compartment door.

1.Locate the water filter cartridge cap in the front base grille below the freezer compartment door. Rotate the cap counterclockwise to a vertical position and pull the cap and filter cartridge out through the base grille.

NOTE: There will be water in the cartridge. Some spilling may occur.

2.Remove the cartridge cap by sliding it off the end of the old cartridge. The cap will slide to the left or right. DO NOT DISCARD THE CAR

4.Slide the cartridge cap onto the new cartridge as shown.

5.With cartridge cap in the vertical position, push the new filter cartridge into the base grille until it stops. Rotate

the cartridge cap clockwise to a horizontal position.

6.RUN WATER THROUGH THE DISPENSER UNTIL THE WATER RUNS CLEAR (about 2 to 3 gallons or 6 to 7 minutes). This will clean the system and clear air from

the lines. Additional flushing may be required in some households.

NOTE: As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of the dispenser.
