REPLACING THE WATER FILTER

It is recommended that you replace the filter when
the water filter indicator light turns on or the water
dispenser or icemaker noticeably decreases
production.

NOTE: Filter Bypass Plug

Keep the filter bypass plug.

You must use the filter bypass plug when a
replacement filter cartridge is not available.
The icemaker will not operate without the filter or
filter bypass plug inserted in the proper compartment.

After replacing the filter, flush 2.5 gallons through
filter before use (flush for approximately 5 minutes).
Check the filter for leaks.

After changing the filter, press and hold the FILTER
button for 3 seconds to turn the indicator light off.

To purchase replacement water filter cartridges,
visit your local appliance dealer or parts distributor.

You can also call 1-800-243-0000 (USA)
1-888-542-2623 (Canada).

The replacement water filter cartridge’s part
number is

5231JA2002A

.

Slowly turn the old cartridge to the left. 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.

1

Remove the old cartridge. Take the new
cartridge out of its packaging, and remove the
red cap. Line up the cartridge ears so that it
can be inserted into the filter head.

2

Twist the cartridge right about 1/4 turn.

You will feel a stop and the locked symbol
should now be lined up with the indicator line.
