REFRIGERATOR USE WATER FILTER CARTRIDGE - XWF WATER FILTER CARTRIDGE HOLDER The water filter cartridge holder is located in the back upperright corner of the fresh food refrigerator compartment. WHEN TO REPLACE THE FILTER If there is a replacement indicator light for the water filter cartridge on the dispenser, the red filter light will start blinking to tell you that you need to replace the filter soon. The filter light will blink while the door is open until the filter is replaced. The filter cartridge should be replaced every six months, or earlier if the flow of water to the dispenser or icemaker decreases. REMOVING THE FILTER If you are replacing the filter, first remove the previous one: 1. Open the filter cartridge housing by squeezing the 2 front tabs and gently pulling down. 2. Rotate the filter down. 3. Gently grasp the filter and slowly turn it counterclockwise about a ¼ turn. The filter should automatically release itself when you have rotated it far enough to the left. A small amount of water may drip down. CAUTION If air has been trapped in the system, the filter cartridge may be ejected as it is removed. Use caution when removing. INSTALLING THE FILTER IN A BOTTOM FREEZER REFRIGERATOR 1. Open the filter cartridge housing by squeezing the 2 front tabs and gently pulling down. 2. Line up the ports on the filter with the ports on the filter cartridge holder, and gently insert the filter. 3. Slowly turn the filter to the right until it stops. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. As you turn the filter, it will automatically adjust itself into position. The filter will move about a ¼ turn or 90 degrees, until the arrow on the filter aligns with the arrow on the filter cartridge holder. 4. Slowly push the filter up into the clips. 5. Close the filter cartridge housing by gently pushing the lid upwards until the tabs lock into place. 6. Run water from the dispenser for 2 gallons (7.6 liters) or approximately 5 minutes to clear the system. Water may spurt out and air bubbles may be visible during this process. If water is not flowing, check to make sure the filter has been fully rotated to the right. 7. Press and hold the WATER FILTER pad on the dispenser for three seconds to reset water filter. FILTER BYPASS PLUG To reduce the risk of property damage due to water leakage, you MUST use the filter bypass plug when a replacement filter cartridge is not available. Some models do not come equipped with the filter bypass plug. To obtain a free bypass plug, call 877.337.3639 or go to Haierparts.com. GEAppliances.ca or call 800.661.1616 in Canada. The dispenser and icemaker will not operate without either the filter or bypass plug installed. The bypass plug is installed in the same way as a filter cartridge.

The disposable filter cartridge should be replaced every 6 months at the rated capacity, or sooner if a noticeable reduction in flow rate occurs. For the maximum benefit of your filtration system, Haier recommends the use of GE Appliances-branded filters only. Using GE Appliances-branded filters in Haier refrigerators provides optimal performance and reliability. GE Appliances filters meet rigorous industry standards for safety and quality that are important for products that are filtering your water. Haier has not qualified non-GE Appliances-branded filters for use in Haier refrigerators and there is no assurance that non-GE Appliancesbranded filters meet Haier standards for quality, performance and reliability.
