Water Filtration System - Jenn-Air JS42NXFXDW10 Use & Care Manual

Remember
• Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Allow 3 days
to completely fill ice container.
Discard the first three batches of ice produced to avoid
impurities that may be flushed out of the system.
The quality of your ice will be only as good as the quality of the
water supplied to your ice maker.
Avoid connecting the ice maker to a softened water supply.
Water softener chemicals (such as salt) can damage parts of
the ice maker and lead to poor quality ice. If a softened water
supply cannot be avoided, make sure the water softener is
operating properly and is well maintained.
It is normal for the ice cubes to be attached at the corners.
They will break apart easily.
For Style 1 ice maker, do not force the wire shutoff arm up or
down.
• Do not store anything on top of the ice maker or in the ice
storage bin/bucket.
Depending on your model, there may be a water filter indicator or
water filter status lights on the control panel. Follow the
instructions specific to your model.
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of
unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or
after the system.
Water Filter Indicator (dispenser models)
The water filter indicator, located on the control panel, will remind
you when it is time to order and replace the water filter.
A new water filter should display a reading of 99%. The reading in
the display will decrease as the filter life is used. A replacement
water filter should be ordered when "Order Filter" is displayed.
When "Change Filter" is displayed, a new water filter should be
installed.
The disposable water filter should be replaced every 6 months OR
earlier if the flow of water to the water dispenser or ice maker
decreases noticeably.
After changing the water filter, press and hold RESET for
2 seconds until the indicator display changes to 99%. See "Using
the Controls."
Water Filter Status Lights (non-dispenser models)
The water filter status lights will remind you when it is time to
order and replace the water filter. When the Order Filter light is on,
it is almost time to change the water filter. When the Replace Filter
light is on, a new water filter should be installed.
The disposable water filter should be replaced at least every
6 months OR earlier if the flow of water to the ice maker
decreases noticeably.
After replacing the water filter, press and hold RESET FILTER for
3 seconds. The Good light will turn on when the filter tracking
feature is reset. See "Using the Controls."
Changing the Water Filter
The water filter is located in the base grille below the freezer
compartment door. It is not necessary to remove the base grille to
remove the filter.
1. Remove the filter by pressing the eject button and pulling
straight out on the filter cap.
NOTES:
Avoid twisting the cap when removing the filter because
this could cause the cap to come off. If this occurs,
