Replacing Water Filter

IMPORTANT: Air trapped in system may cause

water and cartridge to eject. Use caution when

removing.

1.Turn filter counterclockwise until it releases from filter head.

2.Drain water from filter into sink, and dispose in normal household trash.

3.Wipe up excess water in filter cover and continue with Initial Installation, steps 2 and 4.

The filter should be changed at least every 12 months.

IMPORTANT: Condition of water and amount used determines life span of water filter cartridge. If water use is high, or if water is of poor quality, replacement may need to take place more often.

To purchase a replacement water filter cartridge, contact your dealer or call 1-877-232-6771 U.S.A. or 1-800-688-8/408 Canada.

The dispenser feature may be used without a water filter cartridge. If you choose this option, replace filter with blue bypass cap.

Initial Installation

The water filter is located in the upper right-hand corner of the fresh food compartment.

1.Remove blue bypass cap and retain for later use.

2.Remove sealing label from end of filter and insert into filter head.

3.Rotate gently clockwise until

filter stops. Snap filter cover closed.

/4. Reduce water spurts by flushing air from system. Run water continuously for two minutes through dispenser until water runs steady. During initial use,

allow about a one- to two-minute delay in water dispersal to allow internal water tank to fill.

Additional flushing may be required in some households where water is of poor quality.
