REPLACING THE WATER FILTER It is recommended that you replace the filter when the water filter indicator reaches 0 or the water dispenser or icemaker noticeably decreases production. 1 Rotate the knob of the old cartridge counterclockwise. When the cartridge is released, you will feel it click out of place. NOTE: Replacing the filter causes a small amount of water (around 1 oz. or 25 cc) to drain. Place a cup under the filter hole to contain it. 2 Remove the old cartridge. Take the new cartridge out of its packaging, and remove the protective cover from the o-rings. Hold the cartridge handle in its vertical position, and firmly push the new filter cartridge into place until it stops. After replacing the filter, dispense for 2 minutes from the water dispenser to purge the water system. Check the filter for leaks. LIGHT / FILTER 1 Use the handle to twist the cartridge clockwise about one turn, until the handle is in a horizontal position. You will feel the filter click into place. NOTE: If the filter will not turn from side to side, it isn't fully inserted. When the water filter indicator displays the message 0 Filter Month, Hold 3 Seconds, reset the water filter status display and indicator light by pressing and holding the LIGHT/FILTER button for more than 3 seconds. To purchase replacement water filter cartridges, visit your local appliance dealer or parts distributor. You can also call 1-877-714-7486. The replacement water filter cartridge's part number is 5231JA2006A. 36
