REPLACING THE WATER FILTER
1 Rotate the knob of the old cartridge
counterclockwise. When the cartridge is
released, you will feel it click out of place.
NOTE: Replacing the filter causes a small
amount of water (around 1 oz. or 25 cc) to
drain. Place a cup under the filter hole to
contain it.
It is recommended that you replace the filter when
the water filter indicator reaches 0 or the water
dispenser or icemaker noticeably decreases
production.

cartridge out of its packaging, and remove the
protective cover from the o-rings. Hold the

clockwise about turn, until the handle is in a
horizontal position. You will feel the filter click
into place.
NOTE: If the filter will not turn from side to
side, it isn’t fully inserted.
After replacing the filter, dispense 6 or 7 glasses of
water from the water dispenser to purge the water
system. Check the filter for leaks.
