FILTERS AND ACCESSORIES

To Steady the Refrigerator:

Open the freezer drawer. Using a ¹⁄₄" hex driver, turn both brake feet clockwise the same amount until the brake feet are snug against the floor. Check again. If not satisfied, continue to adjust the brake feet by half turns of the screw until the refrigerator does not roll forward when the drawer is opened.

NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the refrigerator takes some weight off the brake feet. This makes it easier to turn the screws.

7.Replace the base grille by aligning the ends of the grille with the leveling assemblies on each side and snapping the grille into place.

Water Filtration System

Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction may be used on disinfected waters that may contain filterable cysts.

4.Align the arrow on the water filter label with the cutout notch in the filter housing and insert the filter into the housing.

5.Turn the filter clockwise until it locks into the housing.

NOTE: If the filter is not correctly locked into the housing, the water dispenser will not operate. Water will not flow from the dispenser.

Install the Water Filter

1.Locate the accessory packet in the refrigerator and remove the water filter.

2.Take the water filter out of its packaging and remove the cover from the O-rings. Be sure the O-rings are still in place after the cover is removed.

6.While the compartment door is still open, lift the filter up into the compartment. Then, close the filter compartment door completely.

7.Flush the water system. See “Flushing the Water Filter” in the “Water and Ice Dispensers” section.

IMPORTANT: If you do not flush the water system, you may experience dripping and/or decreased flow from the water dispenser.
