Water Filter Installation

Locate the water filter compartment in the lower left-hand
side of the refrigerator compartment. Push on the right side
of the filter door to open.
Align the arrow on the water filter cap with the cutout notch
in the filter housing and insert filter.
Once the filter is inserted, turn the filter clockwise 90°
(1/4 turn) until it locks into the housing.
Push water filter door closed to latch.
Flush 3 gallons (11.4 L) of water through the water system to
clear air from the water line and to keep the dispenser from
dripping and/or avoiding decreased dispenser flow.
NOTE: If the filter is not installed correctly, water may
dispense at a lower flow rate and there will be slower ice
production. Improper filter installation may also cause the
water filter housing to leak.
