CHANGING THE FILTER Locating the Filter Your refrigerator is equipped with a water filtering system. The water filter system filters all dispensed drinking water, as well as the water used to produce ice. Water Filter The water filter is located at the top right side of the fresh food compartment. Replacing the Water Filter In general, you should change the water filter every six months to ensure the highest possible water quality. Water Filter Status on the user interface prompts you to replace the filter after a standard amount of water (200 gallons/757 liters for PureSource UltraTM and PureSource 3TM) has flowed through the system. If your refrigerator has not been used for a period of time (during moving for example), change the filter before reinstalling the refrigerator. Filter Cartridge NOTE If your refrigerator is equipped with a PureSource 3TM water filter, it can be replaced with a PureSource UltraTM water filter. Replacing your PureSource 3TM water filter with a PureSource UltraTM water filter removes more potential contaminants as tested by NSF. The contaminants or other substances removed or reduced by this water filter are not necessarily in all users' water.
