Remove the sealing label from the end of the new water filter
and insert the water filter into the filter mounting bracket.
Gently rotate the water filter clockwise until it stops, and snap
the filter cover closed.
The water filter is located in the upper right-hand corner of the
refrigerator compartment.
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
Indicator Models
• The disposable water filter should be replaced when the
Replace light is lit, or at least every 6 months. If the water flow
to the water dispenser or ice maker decreases noticeably
before 6 months have passed, replace the water filter more
often.
• After replacing the water filter, press and hold the Filter Reset
touch pad for 3 seconds until the Order or Replace light turns
off. See "Using the Controls."
Non-Indicator Models
• The disposable water filter should be replaced at least every
6 months. If the water flow to the water dispenser or ice maker
decreases noticeably before 6 months have passed, replace
the water filter more often.
Replacing the Water Filter
IMPORTANT: Air trapped in the water system may cause water
and filter to eject. Always dispense water for at least 2 minutes
before removing the filter or blue bypass cap.
1. Turn the used water filter counterclockwise until it releases
from the filter mounting bracket.
2. Drain water from the water filter into the sink, and discard the
used water filter. Wipe up the excess water in the filter cover.

4. Flush the water system. See "Water System Preparation."
5. Inspect the water filter system for leaks. If you see water
leaks, see "Troubleshooting."
Using the Dispenser Without a Water Filter
You can use the water dispenser without a water filter, but your
water will not be filtered. If you choose this option, replace the
water filter with the blue bypass cap.
Turning the Ice Maker On/Off
To turn the ice maker ON, simply lower the wire shutoff arm.
To manually turn the ice maker OFF, lift the wire shutoff arm to the
OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click.
NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. 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.
Ice Production Rate
• The ice maker should produce a complete batch of ice
approximately every 3 hours.
• To increase ice production, lower the freezer and refrigerator
temperature. See "Using the Controls." Wait 24 hours
between adjustments.
Remember
• Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced.
• 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.
• Do not store anything on top of the ice maker or in the ice
storage bin.
