About the water filter cartridge.

Water Filter Cartridge
The water filter cartridge is located in the

back upper right corner of the refrigerator

compartment.
When to Replace the Filter
The filter cartridge should be replaced

every six months or earlier if the flow of

water to the water dispenser or icemaker

decreases.
Installing the Filter Cartridge

If you are replacing the cartridge, first

remove the old one by slowly turning it

to the left. Do not pull down on the

cartridge. A small amount of water may

drip down.
Apply the month and year sticker to the

new cartridge to remind you to replace

the filter in six months.
Fill the replacement cartridge with

water from the tap to allow for better

flow from the dispenser immediately

after installation.
Lining up the arrow on the cartridge

and the cartridge holder, place the 

top of the new cartridge up inside 

the holder. Do not push it up into 

the holder.

Slowly turn it to the right until the filter

cartridge stops. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.

As you turn the cartridge, it will

automatically raise itself into position.

Cartridge will rotate about 1/2 turn.
Run water from the dispenser for 

3 minutes (about one and a half

gallons) to clear the system and 

prevent sputtering.

NOTE: A newly-installed water filter cartridge may
cause water to spurt from the dispenser. 

Filter Bypass Plug
You must use the filter bypass plug 

when a replacement filter cartridge is not

available. The dispenser and the icemaker

will not operate without the filter or filter

bypass plug.
