NSTALLATION
The water filter mounts in the machine
compartment above the refrigerator.
Your refrigerator was delivered from the
factory with a filter bypass in place. If the
filter was not installed for you when the
refrigerator was installed, the filter car-
tridge can be found packaged inside of the
refrigerator. It can be easily installed
without using any additional parts, screws
or fasteners.
If the home is equipped with a Reverse
Osmosis water treatment system, this
additional water filter is not necessary.
The filter bypass should remain installed.
