ICE AND WATER fIlTER
Tm
(SOmE mODElS)
Order new filter cartridges through the dealer
where you bought the refrigerator, contact the
Electrolux Solutions Hotline at 1-800-944-9044, or
go to our web site at www.frigidaire.com. It might
be good to order some filter cartridges when you
first install your refrigerator. Be sure to ask for the
Rg-100 PureSource™ replacement cartridge.
System Startup:
Water supply does not need to be turned off, however, do not
use ice and water dispenser while installing filter. The filter
cartridge has already been installed in the filter housing at the
factory. Refer to the How to Prime the Water Supply System
section to properly fill the system with water.
The PureSource™ * NGRG-2000 Ice and Water
Filter System with the RG-100 cartridge is tested
and certified by NSF International to NSF/ANSI
Standard 42 for the reduction of claims specified
on the performance data sheet.
This system should not be used on water that is
microbiologically unsafe or with water of unknown quality unless
the water has been adequately disinfected before or after
traveling through the filtration system. Systems certified for cyst
reduction may be used on disinfected waters that may contain
filterable cysts.
• Rated Capacity - 400 gallons
• Rated service flow - .5 GPM
• Maximum/Minimum Rated Pressure - 100/30 PSI
• Maximum/Minimum Operating Temp. - 100°/33° F
Changing the Filter:
Water conditions vary throughout the world, but changing the
water filter every 6 - 9 months normally will ensure the highest
possible water quality. Ice jams in the ice maker and/or
hollow ice cubes (partially frozen cubes with water inside),
may also be a sign that your water filter needs changing.
The Filter Status light will turn red after 400 gallons of water
has flowed through the ice and water dispenser. Also, if the filter
has been in a refrigerator that has not been in use for awhile
(during moving for example), change the filter before reinstalling
the refrigerator. The dispenser system will also operate without
filtration (with filter cartridge removed).

It is not necessary to turn the water supply off to change the
filter.

arm to the UP position. Turn OFF rear mounted ice maker
by pressing ON/OFF power switch to the "O" position.
3.
Hold filter cup firmly, and unscrew towards left. Some
water could leak out as you remove cup. This is normal.
Filter cartridge should come down with cup. If cartridge
remains in housing, pull down gently, while twisting filter
back and forth.
4.
Rinse out cup under running water.
5.
The large o-ring that seals the filter system fits in the o-ring
groove inside the cup. Should the o-ring fall out during filter
cartridge replacement, simply place it back in the groove
prior to screwing the cup back in place. If the o-ring
becomes damaged, you will need to order one from
the Electrolux Solutions Hotline.
6.
Discard old filter cartridge.
7.
Remove new filter cartridge from packaging. Place in cup.
The end with the small o-ring should be up, out of the cup.

cartridge. Check placement of large O-ring. Reinstall filter
cup, making certain it is tightened completely.
11. To prime filter system and purge air from water line,
continue flushing the system for approximately 3 minutes
to assure that the purest water possible is stored in the
water tank. There will be noticeable spurts and sputters
as the system pushes air out through the system and
out the dispenser nozzle. This is normal.

Resetting The filter Status light (some models)
After replacing the filter cartridge, it will be necessary to press
the Filter Status reset button located on the ice and water
dispenser. This will reset the Filter Status light. Push the reset
button until the green, red and amber lights flash (10-15
seconds). Please refer to the complete dispenser operating
instructions attached to the inside of the freezer door.
On models without a Filter Status reset button, there is a
set of Reminder Stickers included in the envelope that the Use
& Care Manual came in. Choose a dated sticker that indicates
6 - 9 months (depending on your water quality and usage) from
the date of installation. Place the sticker on the front of the filter
cup to remind you when it is time to change the filter.
