Install Air Filter (on some models) The air filter reduces the buildup of odors. This helps to maintain a cleaner environment inside your refrigerator. An air filter is 15 times more powerful than baking soda at reducing common food odors inside the refrigerator. Your refrigerator's accessory packet includes an air filter, which must be installed prior to use. On some models, the air filter is already installed at the factory. A. "P" clamp D.
