Water Filter Status
When a water filter has been installed in the refrigerator, the water filter status lights help you know when to change your water filter.
•The water filter status icon will change from “Good” to “Order Filter” when 90% of the volume of water for which the filter is rated has passed through the filter OR 5 months have passed since the filter was installed.
•The “Replace Water Filter” icon will illuminate and blink continuously during dispensing when the rated volume of water has passed through the filter OR 6 months have passed since the filter was installed. A new water filter should be installed immediately when the Replace light is illuminated.
•After 14 days at Replace Filter stage, the “Replace Filter” and “water” icons will glow at all times and blink continuously during dispensing. Also, an alert chime will sound three times following dispensing.
The disposable water filter should be replaced at least every
6 months. If the water flow to the water dispenser or ice maker decreases noticeably before 6 months have passed, replace the water filter more often.

After changing the water filter, reset the status light. Press the OPTIONS button to enter Options mode, then press LOCK to initiate the reset, then press MEASURED FILL to confirm that you want to reset the status light. When the system is reset, the “ORDER” and “REPLACE” icons will disappear from the display screen.
