MAINTENANCE
Replacing the Water Filter
It is recommended that you replace the water
fi lter:
Approximately every
six months.
When the water fi lter
indicator turns on.
When the water
dispenser output
decreases.
When the ice cubes are smaller than normal.
1
Remove the old water filter.
Pinch the sides to open the water filter cover.
NOTE: Replacing the water filter causes a
small amount of water (around 1 oz. or 25
cc) to drain. Place a cup under the front end
of the water fi lter cover to collect any leaking
water. Hold the water fi lter upright, once it is
removed, to prevent any remaining water from
spilling out of the water fi lter.
Pull the water filter
downward and turn
it counterclockwise
to pull it out. Make
sure to rotate the fil-
ter down completely
before pulling it out of
the manifold hole.
2 Replace with a new water fi lter.
Take the new water filter out of its packing
and remove the protective cover from the o-
rings. With water filter tabs in the horizontal
position, push the new water filter into the
manifold hole until it stops.
Rotate the water filter up into position and
close the cover. The cover will click when
closed correctly.
3
After the water fi lter is replaced, dispense
2.5 gallons (9 L) of water (fl ush for approximately
fi ve minutes) to remove trapped air and
contaminants from the system. Do not
dispense the entire 2.5 gallons (9 L) amount
continuously. Depress and release the
dispenser pad for cycles of 30 seconds ON and
60 seconds OFF .
