The water filter status light will help you know when to change
your water filter. When the water filter status display changes
from “GOOD” to “ORDER,” this tells you that It Is almost time to

change the water filter cartridge. Replace the water filter
cartridge when the water filter status display changes to

“REPLACE.” If water flow to your water dispenser or Ice maker

decreases noticeably, change the filter sooner. The filter should

be replaced at least every 6 months depending on your water

quality and usage. To change the filter, see “Water Filtration
System.”
