It is recommended that you replace the water filter:
• Approximately every six months.
• When the water filter indicator turns on.
• When the water dispenser output decreases.
• When the ice cubes are smaller than usual.
Reverse Osmosis filtration systems can reduce the water
pressure below the minimum level and cause ice maker
issues.
If the problem persists, it may be necessary to contact a
plumber.
The water pressure must be between 30 and 120 psi.
If the problem persists, it may be necessary to contact a
plumber.
The water line tubing can kink when the refrigerator is
moved during installation or cleaning, and cause reduced
water flow.
Straighten or repair the water supply line and arrange it to
prevent future kinks.
Water will not dispense if any of the doors are left open or
ajar. Both doors must be completely shut.
Press and hold the word "Lock" for three seconds to
unlock the dispenser.
Press the water icon until it lights. This indicates it has
been selected.
Dispense 2.5 gallons of water (flush for approximately 5
minutes) to remove trapped air and contaminants from the
water system.
Do not dispense the entire 2.5 gallon amount continuously.
Depress and release the dispenser pad for cycles of 30
seconds ON and 60 seconds OFF.
