Kenmore 2305761A manual Indicator:Status, Changing the Water Filter

Your dispenser can be turned off for easy cleaning or to prevent unintentional dispensing by small children and pets.

NOTE: The lock feature does not shut off power to the product, to the ice maker, or to the dispenser light. It simply deactivates the dispenser levers.

To turn off the dispenser, press and hold the lock button until the red indicator appears below LOCKED. The ice and water dispensers will not work. To unlock the dispenser, press the lock button until the indicator disappears. Then continue to dispense ice or water as usual.

The water filter status display will help you know when it is time to change your water filter. A new filter should display a reading of 99%. The number on the display decreases as the filter life is used. It is recommended that you replace the filter when the status displays 0% OR when water flow to your water dispenser or ice maker decreases noticeably. To change the filter, see "Changing the Water Filter" later in this section.

INDICATOR:STATUS:

10	percent	Order	replacement filter
0 percent OR flow decreases		Replace filter

After changing the filter, reset the status display by pressing and holding RESET for 2 seconds. The status display will change to 99% when it is reset.
