WaterFiltration System
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
Water Filter Status Light (on some models)
The water filter status light will help you know when to change your water filter. The light will change from green to yellow. This tells you that it is almost time to change the filter. It is recommended that you replace the water filter when the status light changes to red OR water flow to your water dispenser or ice maker decreases noticeably.
After changing the water filter, reset the water filter status light.
Style 1
Press the light switch 5 times within 10 seconds. The status light will change from red to green.
Style 2
Press and hold the water filter reset button until the status light turns green. Your reset button may be located on the water dispenser or on the control panel in the refrigerator compartment.
Non-indicator Water Filter (on some models)
If your refrigerator does not have the status light, you should change the water filter every 6 months depending upon your usage. If the water flow to the water dispenser or ice maker decreases noticeably before 6 months have passed, replace the water filter more often.

You can run the dispenser without a water filter. Your water will not be filtered.
1.Remove the water filter.
2.Slide the cap off the end of the filter and replace the cap in the base grille.
IMPORTANT: Do not discard the cap. It is part of your refrigerator. Keep the cap to use with the replacement filter.
