Water Filtration 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. When the water filter status display changes from “GOOD” to “ORDER,” this tells you that it is almost time to change the water filter cartridge. Replace the water filter cartridge when the water filter status display changes to “REPLACE.” If water flow to your water dispenser or ice maker decreases noticeably, change the filter sooner. The filter should be replaced at least every 6 months depending on your water quality and usage.

After changing the water filter, reset the status light by pressing and holding the FILTER button for 3 seconds. The status light will change from “REPLACE” to “GOOD” when the system is reset.

Changing the Water Filter

1.Press the eject button to release the filter from the base grille.

2.Pull the filter straight out.

3.Turn the cap counterclockwise to remove it from the filter.

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

4.Align the ridge on the cap with the arrow on the new filter and turn the cap until it snaps into place.

NOTE: You can run the dispenser without a filter. Your water will not be filtered. Simply insert the cap all of the way into the base grille and rotate the cap until it is firmly in place.

5.Remove the covers from the O-rings. Be sure the O-rings are still in place after the covers are removed.

6.Push the filter into the base grille. The eject button will pop back out when the filter is fully engaged.

7.Flush the water system. See “Water and Ice Dispensers.”

REFRIGERATOR CARE

Cleaning

WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Use nonflammable cleaner.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically. However, clean both sections about once a month to avoid buildup of odors. Wipe up spills immediately.

IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To avoid odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly.

To Clean Your Refrigerator:

NOTE: Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing petroleum products on plastic parts, interior and door liners or gaskets. Do not use paper towels, scouring pads, or other harsh cleaning tools.

1.Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2.Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.

3.Wash stainless steel and painted metal exteriors with a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.

4.There is no need for routine condenser cleaning in normal home operating environments. If the environment is particularly greasy or dusty, or there is significant pet traffic in the home, the condenser should be cleaned every 2 to

3 months to ensure maximum efficiency. If you need to clean the condenser:

Remove the base grille.

Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush to clean the grille, the open areas behind the grille and the front surface area of the condenser.

Replace the base grille when finished.

5.Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

Changing the Light Bulbs

NOTE: Not all bulbs will fit your refrigerator. Be sure to replace the bulb with one of the same size, shape and wattage. Replacement bulbs are available from your dealer.

The dispenser lights are LEDs that can not be changed.

All other lights require a 40-watt bulb.

1.Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2.Remove light shield when applicable.

NOTE: To clean the light shield, wash it with warm water and liquid detergent. Rinse and dry the shield well.

3.Remove light bulb and replace with one of the same size, shape and wattage.

4.Replace light shield when applicable.

5.Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.
