7.3 Water Filter
Your refrigerator is equipped with a water
filtering system. The water filtering system filters
all dispensed drinking water, as well as the
water used to produce ice. The water filter is
located at the top right side of the fresh food
compartment.
In general, you should change the water filter
every six months to ensure the highest possible
water quality. Water filter status on the user
interface prompts you to replace the filter after
a standard amount of water (750 litres) has
flowed through the system.
If your refrigerator has not been used for a
period of time (during moving for example),
change the filter before reinstalling the
refrigerator
Note: When ordering your replacement filter,
please reorder the same filter type that is
currently in your refrigerator.
