To Replace your Kenmorepure!
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 power switch.
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.

system for about three minutes.
