Child Lock Feature
(dispenser models only)
When engaged, your refrigerator's
child lock feature prevents water or
ice from being dispensed. This
feature is useful when cleaning the
dispenser or to keep children from
dispensing ice and water. To activate
the child lock, push the child lock
switch to the left (see illustration). To
deactivate, push the child lock switch
to the right. Your appliance is
shipped from the factory with the
child lock in the off position.
Installing the Water Filter
Locate water filter door. The door is located under the MEAT
SAVOR TM /PRODUCE drawer handle. Push the upper left
corner of the door to release the door latch. Pull the door
downward. Insert the filter cartridge into circular opening in
filter housing. Move the filter cartridge horizontally until the
filter head is engaged. Rotate gently clockwise until the filter
stops. Flush air from the system by running water through the
dispenser continuously for three minutes. If water spurts
occur, continue to run water until flow is steady. Additional
flushing may be required in areas with poor water quality.
NOTE: Allow a one to two minute delay to allow internal
water tank to fill.
CAUTION
• Be sure to have replacement cartridges available when filter
change is required.
• If water filtration system has been allowed to freeze, replace filter
cartridge.

Replacing Water Filter

IMPORTANT: Air trapped in your refrigerator's water filtration
system may cause water and the cartridge to eject. Use
caution when removing the filter.
Locate water filter door. The door is located under the MEAT
SAVOR TM /PRODUCE drawer handle. Push the upper left
corner of the door to release the door latch. Pull the door
downward. Turn filter cartridge counterclockwise until it
releases from filter head. Drain water from the filter into a sink
and dispose of the cartridge. Wipe up excess water at filter
location and insert the filter
cartridge into circular opening in
filter housing. Move the filter
cartridge horizontally until the
filter head is engaged. Rotate
gently clockwise until the filter
stops. Flush air from the system
by running water through the
dispenser continuously for
three minutes. If water spurts
occur, continue to run water until
flow is steady. Additional flushing
may be required in areas with
poor water quality.
When to Change the Water Filter
Your water filter provides a cleaner ice and water supply by
filtering bad tastes, odors, sediment and harmful contaminants.
To ensure proper filtration, the water filter cartridge should be
changed every nine months or after 750 gallons of water are
used, whichever comes first.
IMPORTANT: The condition of water and amount used
determines the life span of your water filter cartridge. If water
use is high, or if water is of poor quality, you may have to
replace the cartridge more frequently.
