CHANGING THE FILTER Locating the Filters Your refrigerator is equipped with 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.

Be ready to wipe up any small amounts of water released during the filter replacement. 1 Turn Off the ice maker power switch. 2 Remove the old filter by rotating it counter- clockwise (to the left) 90 degrees to release it. 3 Slide the old filter cartridge straight out of the housing and discard it. 4 Unpackage the new filter cartridge. Slide it into the filter housing as far as it will go with the grip end horizontal. 5 Push lightly inward on the filter while rotating it clockwise (to the right). The filter will then pull itself inward as it is rotated. Rotate the filter 90 degrees until it stops and the grip end is vertical. You may be able to feel a very light click as the filter locks into place. 6 Press a drinking glass against the water dispenser while checking for any leaks at the filter housing. Any spurts and sputters that occur as the system purges air out of the dispenser system are normal. 7 Continue dispensing water for 3-4 minutes or until 1.5 gallons of water has flowed through the system. You will likely need to empty and refill your glass several times. 8 Turn On the ice maker. 9 Press and hold the Water Filter reset button on the control panel for three seconds.
