Style 2 Changing the Water Filter
Turning the Ice Maker On/Off:
• To turn ON the ice maker,simply lower the wire shutoff arm.
• To manually turn off the ice maker, lift the wire shutoff arm to
the OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click. Ice can still
be dispensed, but no more can be made.
NOTE: The ice maker has an automatic shutoff to keep the
storage bin from overfilling during normal operation. As ice is
made, the ice cubes will fill the ice storage bin, and the ice cubes
will raise the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position. Do not
force the wire shutoff arm up or down.
Removing and Replacing Ice Storage Bin:
1. Pull the covering panel up from the bottom.
2. Lift the wire shutoff arm so it clicks into the OFF (up) position.
3. Lift up the front of the storage bin and pull it out.

from the O-rings. Be sure the O-rings are still in place after the
covers are removed.

Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or
of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before
or after the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction
may be used on disinfected waters that may contain
filterable cysts.
Water Filter Status Light
The water filter status light will help you know when to change
your water filter.
• When the dispenser control panel's water filter status display
changes to "ORDER," this tells you that it is almost time to
change the water filter cartridge.
• Replace the water filter cartridge when the water filter status
display changes to "REPLACE."
If water flow to your water dispenser or ice maker decreases
noticeably, change the filter sooner. The filter should be replaced
at least every 6 months, depending on your water quality and
usage.
• After changing the water filter, reset the status light by
pressing and holding the FILTER button for 3 seconds. When
the system is reset, the "ORDER" and "REPLACE" icons will
disappear from the display screen.
