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 CAP.

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 as shown above 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.

6.Flush the water system by dispensing and discarding

2 to 3 gallons (8 to 12 liters or approximately 6 to 7 minutes) of water through the dispenser. This will clean the system and help 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.

Using the dispenser without the water filter

You can run the dispenser without a water filter cartridge. Your water will not be filtered. If you run the dispenser without a water filter cartridge, keep the cartridge cap and replace it in the base grille for future use.

1.Remove the base grille water filter cartridge (See “Changing a base grille water filter cartridge” earlier in this section.) Then slide the cartridge cap off the end of the filter cartridge. DO NOT DISCARD THE CAP.

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

3.Rotate the cartridge cap to a horizontal position as shown in step 5.

NOTE: The cartridge cap may not be even with the base grille.

Ice Maker and Storage Bin/Bucket

(on some models -Accessory)

To turn the ice maker on/off: (Style 1)

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

1.To turn the ice maker on, simply lower the wire shut-off arm.

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

2.To manually turn the icemaker off, lift the wire shut-off 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 and, if necessary, gradually turn the Freezer Control to the highest setting, waiting 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 the ice bin: (Style 1)

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

2.Lift the wire shut-off 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 shut-off arm down to the ON position to restart ice production. Make sure the door is closed tightly.
