To replace your PureSource 3
water filter:
It is not necessary to turn the water supply off
to change the filter. Be ready to wipe up any
small amounts of water released during the filter
replacement.
1 Turn Off the ice maker.
2 Remove the filter by pushing on the end/face
of the filter.
3 Slide the old water filter cartridge straight out
of the housing and discard it.
4 Unpackage the new filter cartridge. Using
the alignment guide, slide it gently into the
filter housing until it stops against the snap-in
connector at the back of the housing.
5 Push firmly until the cartridge snaps
into place (you should hear a click
as the cartridge engages the snap-in
connector).
6 Press a drinking glass against the water
dispenser while checking for any leaks at the
filter housing. Any spurts and sputters that
occur as the system purges air out of the
dispenser system are normal.
7 After filling one glass of water, continue
flushing the system for about four minutes.
8 Turn On the ice maker.
9 Press and hold the Water Filter button on
the Ice & Water Dispenser control panel for
three seconds. When the display changes from
"Red" to "Green," the status has been reset.
