3.Take the new cartridge out of its packaging and remove protective cover from O-rings.

4.Slide the cartridge cap onto the new cartridge. See illustration in Step 2.

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. Flush the water system. See “Flushing the Water System After Replacing Filter” later in this section.

Flushing the Water System After Replacing Filter

Use a sturdy container to depress the water dispenser bar until the water begins to flow. Flush the water system by dispensing and discarding 2 to 3 gal. (8 to 12 L) of water. Cleaning the system will take approximately 6 to 7 minutes and will help clear air from the line. Additional flushing may be required in some households.

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

Using the Dispenser Without the Water Filter

You can run the dispenser without a water filter cartridge. Your water will not be filtered.

1.Remove the base grille water filter cartridge. For Style 1, replace the base grille after removing the filter.

2.For Style 2, slide the cartridge cap off the end of the filter cartridge.

NOTE: Do not discard the cap. It is part of your refrigerator. Keep the cap to use with the replacement filter.

3.With the cartridge cap in the vertical position, insert the cap into the base grille until it stops.

4.Rotate the cartridge cap to a horizontal position. The cartridge cap might not be even with the base grille.

Style 1

To Turn the Ice Maker ON/OFF:

The on/off switch for the ice maker is a wire shutoff arm located on the side of the ice maker.

1.To turn the ice maker on, simply lower the wire shutoff arm.

NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. As ice is made, the ice cubes will fill the ice storage bin and the ice cubes will raise the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position.

2.To manually turn the ice maker off, lift the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click to make sure the ice maker will not continue to operate.

MAX

NORMAL

To Increase Ice Production Rate:

■Normal Ice Production: In normal ice production mode, the ice maker should produce approximately 7 to 9 batches of ice in a 24-hour period. If ice is not being made fast enough, turn the Freezer Control toward a higher (colder) number in half number steps. (For example, if the control is at 3, move it to between 3 and 4.) Wait 24 hours between each increase.

■Maximum Ice Production (on some models): In maximum ice production, the ice maker should produce approximately 10 to 14 batches of ice in a 24-hour period. If your refrigerator has the maximum ice production feature, push the switch to MAX.

To Remove and Replace Ice Storage Bin:

1.Pull the covering panel out from the bottom and then slide it back toward the rear.

2.Lift the wire shutoff arm so it clicks into the OFF (up) position. Ice can still be dispensed, but no more can be made.

3.Lift up the front of the storage bin and pull it out.

4.Replace the bin by pushing it in all the way or the dispenser will not work. Push the wire shutoff arm down to the ON position to restart ice production. Make sure the door is closed tightly.
