Water Filtration System

The Base Grille Water Filter Status Light
The water filter indicator display will help you know when to
change your water filter cartridge. The display or light is located
at the top of the refrigerator compartment.
NOTE: Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe
or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before
or after the system.
A new water filter should display a reading of 99% and will
continue to decrease as the filter life is used. When display reads
10%, it is time to order a replacement filter. It is recommended
that you replace the base grille water filter cartridge when the
water filter indicator light changes to 0% OR when water flow to
your water dispenser or ice maker decreases noticeably. (See
"Changing the Base Grille Filter" later in this section.)
After changing the water filter cartridge, reset the water filter
status light by pressing and holding the RESET for 2 seconds.
The indicator light will change to 99% when the filter indicator is
reset.

Changing the Base Grille Filter
1. Locate the water filter cartridge cap in the front base grille.
Rotate the cap counterclockwise to a vertical position and
pull the cap and filter cartridge out through the base grille.
NOTE: There will be water in the cartridge. Some spilling may
occur.
2. Remove the cartridge cap by sliding it off the end of the old
cartridge. The cap will slide to the left or right. DO NOT
DISCARD THE CAP .
3. Take the new cartridge out of its packaging and remove
protective cover from o-rings.
4. Slide the cartridge cap onto the new cartridge. See
illustration in Step 2.
5. With cartridge cap in the vertical position, push the new filter
cartridge into the base grille until it stops. Rotate the cartridge
cap clockwise to a horizontal position. Flush the water
system (see "Flushing the Water System After Replacing
Filter" section).
Flushing the Water System After Replacing Filter
Use a sturdy container to depress the water dispenser bar until
the water begins to flow. Flush the water system by dispensing
and discarding 2 to 3 gal. (8 to 12 L) of water. Cleaning the
system will take approximately 6 to 7 minutes and will help clear
air from the line. Additional flushing may be required in some
households.
NOTE: As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of
the dispenser.
Using the Dispenser Without the Water Filter
You can run the dispenser without a water filter cartridge. Your
water will not be filtered.
1. Remove the base grille water filter cartridge.
