KitchenAid 24.8 Cu. Ft. Standard Depth Side-by-Side Refrigerator with Exterior Ice and Water Guía De Instalación

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Flush the water system. See “Water and Ice Dispensers” in the 

User Instructions or User Guide.

 Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Allow 

72 hours to completely fill ice container.

On some models, your refrigerator's accessory packet includes 

an air filter, which must be installed prior to use. On some models, 

the air filter is already installed at the factory. 

The air filter reduces the buildup of odors. This helps to maintain a 

cleaner environment inside the refrigerator. 

The filter should be installed behind the vented door, which is 

located (depending on your model) along either the rear or left 

interior wall near the top of the refrigerator compartment.  

Remove the air filter from its packaging.

Lift open the vented door.

Snap the filter into place. 

Close the vented door.

The filter comes with a status indicator, which should be activated 

and installed at the same time the air filter is installed. 

Place the indicator face-down on a firm, flat surface.

Apply pressure to the bubble on the back of the indicator, until 

the bubble pops to activate the indicator.

Lift open the vented air filter door. On some models, there are 

notches behind the door.

■

Slide the indicator down into the notches, facing outward.

 The indicator will not easily slide into the notches 

if the rear bubble has not been popped.

■

Close the air filter door, and check that the indicator is 

visible through the rectangular hole in the door.

■

Store the indicator in a visible place you will easily 

remember - either inside the refrigerator, or elsewhere in 

your kitchen or home.

The disposable air filter should be replaced every 6 months, when 

the status indicator has completely changed from white to red. 
To order a replacement air filter, see “Accessories” in the User 

Instructions or User Guide.
