PureSource TM * Ice and Water Filter (some models)
NOTE: If you purchased a refrigerator with a PureSource TM* Ice and Water filter, please read the following use and
care information. This ice and water filter system filters water to your ice maker and water dispenser. It is located in the
upper right back corner of the fresh food compartment.
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 The Water Dispenser
Works section
to properly fill the system
with water.
Changing
the Filter:
Order new filter cartridges
through the
dealer where you bought the refrigerator,
or contact
the Consumer
Assistance
Center at 1-800-944-9044.
It might be
good to order some filter cartridges when
you first install your refrigerator. Be sure
to ask for the
RG-100 PureSource
TM*
replacement cartridge.
The PureSource
TM
*
NGRG-
2000 Ice and Water
Filter
System
with
the

tested
and
certified by NSF International,
the nationally recognized
and respected,
not for profit, certification
organization
for
public health safety. The PureSource 7M*

Water conditions
vary throughout
the world, but changing
the water filter every
6 - 9 months normally will ensure the highest possible water quality. The Filter
Status light will turn red after 400 gallons of water has flowed through the ice and
water dispenser (some models). 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).
To change filter:

to turn the water supply off to change
the filter.

should
come
down with cup. If cartridge
remains
in housing,

twisting
filter back and forth.
4.
Rinse out cup under running water.
5.
The large o-ring that seals the filter system
sets in the o-ring groove
down inside the cup. Should the o-ring fall out during filter cartridge
replacement,
simply place it back in the groove
prior to screwing

back in place. If the o-ring becomes
damaged,
you will need to order one
from the Consumer
Assistance
Center.

new filter cartridge
from packaging
and place in cup. The end
