Water conditions vary throughout the world, but changing the water filter every
6*9 months normally will ensure the highest possible water quality. The Filter
Status light will turn red after 400 gallons of water has flowed through the ice and
water dispenser. Also, if the filter has been in a refrigerator that has not been in
use for awhile (during moving for example), change the filter before reinstalling
the refrigerator. The dispenser system will also operate without filtration (with
filter cartridge removed).
