Changing the Water Filter

1.Locate the water filter in the top-right corner of the refrigerator compartment.

2.Lift open the filter cover door. The filter will be released and then will be ejected as the door is opened.

3.When the door is completely open, pull the filter straight out.

NOTE: There may be some water in the filter. Some spilling may occur. Use a towel to wipe up any spills.

4.Take the new filter out of its packaging and remove the covers from the O-rings. Be sure the O-rings are still in place after the covers are removed.

5.With the arrow pointing up, align the new filter with the filter housing and slide it into place. The filter cover door will automatically begin to close as the new filter is inserted.

6.Close the filter cover door completely in order to snap the filter into place. You may need to press hard.

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

Ice Maker

IMPORTANT: To avoid low ice production and poor quality ice, flush the water system before turning on the ice maker. See “Water Dispenser.”

Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the first three batches of ice produced. Allow 2 to 3 days for the storage bin to fill completely following installation.

The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of the water supplied to your ice maker. Avoid connecting the ice maker to a softened water supply. Water softener chemicals (such as salt) can damage parts of the ice maker and lead to poor quality ice. If a softened water supply cannot be avoided, make sure the water softener is operating properly and is well maintained.

If ice in the storage bin clumps together, break up the ice using a plastic utensil and discard. Do not use anything sharp to break up the ice. This can damage the ice bin and the dispenser mechanism.

Do not store anything on top of or in the ice maker or ice storage bin.

Turning the Ice Maker On/Off

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

To manually turn the ice maker OFF, lift the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click.

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. Do not force the wire shutoff arm up or down.

Ice Production Rate

The ice maker should produce approximately 8 to 12 batches of ice per day under normal operation.

To increase ice production, lower the freezer and refrigerator temperature. See “Using the Control(s).” Wait 24 hours between adjustments.

Ice Storage Bin

1.Turn off the ice maker before removing the ice storage bin to serve ice or to clean the bin.

2.Wash the ice storage bin with mild soap and warm water.

3.Slide the ice storage bin under the ice maker, and push it toward the back as far as it will go.

4.Lower the arm on the ice maker to the “on” position.

FEATURES

Your model may have some or all of these features.

Important information to know about glass shelves and covers:

Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping. Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small, pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves and covers are heavy. Use both hands when removing them to avoid dropping.

Refrigerator Shelves

(Glass shelves on some models)

The shelves in your refrigerator are adjustable to match your individual storage needs.

Storing similar food items together in your refrigerator and adjusting the shelves to fit different heights of items will make it easier to find the exact item you want. It will also reduce the amount of time the refrigerator door is open, and save energy.

Shelves and Glass Shelves (on some models)

To remove and replace a shelf:

1.Remove items from the shelf.

2.Slide the shelf straight out to the stop.

3.Depending on your model, lift back or front of the shelf past the stop. Slide shelf out the rest of the way.

4.Replace the shelf by sliding the back of the shelf into the track in the wall of the cabinet.

5.Guide the front of the shelf into the shelf track. Be sure to slide the shelf in all the way.

Whirlpool, a leading name in home appliances, offers a wide range of washing machines designed to provide efficient cleaning and convenience. Renowned for their innovative technologies and user-friendly features, Whirlpool washing machines cater to a diverse range of washing needs.

One of the standout features of Whirlpool washing machines is their load sensing technology. This smart feature detects the weight of the load and automatically adjusts the water levels and cycle duration, ensuring optimal water and energy use. This not only enhances performance but also contributes to sustainability by minimizing unnecessary water consumption.

Whirlpool also incorporates advanced washing cycles in their machines. The EcoWash cycle, for instance, is designed for efficient cleaning while using less water and energy, making it an ideal choice for environmentally conscious consumers. Additionally, the Delicate cycle ensures that fragile fabrics receive a gentle wash, protecting them from damage while effectively removing dirt.

Another notable characteristic is the FreshCare option, available in several Whirlpool models. This technology periodically tumbles the laundry after the cycle has finished, preventing wrinkles and musty odors, and keeping clothes fresh for hours. This is particularly useful for those who might not be able to move their laundry immediately after the wash cycle concludes.

Whirlpool washing machines also come equipped with an intuitive control panel featuring a range of pre-set programs. Users can easily select the desired wash type based on fabric type and soil level, ensuring tailored care for garments. Many models also offer a delay start feature, allowing users to schedule their wash cycles to start at a convenient time.

Durability and ease of maintenance are other key characteristics of Whirlpool washers. Many of their models come with a reliable stainless steel drum, which is both resistant to rust and capable of handling large loads without compromising performance. The self-cleaning technology found in select models further enhances longevity by automatically washing the drum and maintaining optimal hygiene.

In conclusion, Whirlpool washing machines combine cutting-edge technology and thoughtful design to deliver effective, efficient, and user-friendly laundry solutions. With features like load sensing, diverse washing cycles, FreshCare technology, and intuitive control options, Whirlpool continues to set the standard for innovation and reliability in the home appliance market. Whether for everyday use or special care garments, Whirlpool washing machines provide versatility and peace of mind for every household.
