Frequently Asked Questions (34)

  • How do I replace the water filter in my Frigidaire FGHS2355PF5A refrigerator?

    To replace your water filter:

    1. Turn Off the ice maker.
    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.
    7. After filling one glass of water, continue flushing the system for about four minutes.
    8. Turn On the ice maker.
    9. Press and hold the Water Filter button on the Ice & Water Dispenser control panel for three seconds. When the display changes from "Red" to "Green," the status has been reset.

    For more information, see page 21 of the manual.

When dispensing water a loud noise is coming from the bottom of the refrigerator

A loud noise from the bottom of the Frigidaire FGHS2355PF5A refrigerator when dispensing water could be due to the condenser fan or the compressor. The condenser fan, located at the bottom, may produce noise if it is dirty or obstructed. The compressor, which cycles on and off, can also create clicking or humming sounds during operation. Cleaning the condenser fan or checking for obstructions may help reduce the noise.

Water can accumulate and freeze on the floor of the freezer in a Frigidaire FGHS2355PF5A if the ice dispenser is not used frequently. This causes ice cubes to freeze together in the bin, jamming the dispenser mechanism. If the freezer door does not close properly—such as when the ice bin is not aligned correctly—warm air can leak into the freezer, leading to melting and refreezing of ice, which causes water to accumulate and freeze on the floor.
