■

Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the 
first three batches of ice produced. Allow 3 days to 
completely fill the ice storage bin.

■

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.

Water Dispenser

■

After connecting the refrigerator to a water source or 
replacing the water filter, flush the water system. Use a sturdy 
container to depress and hold the water dispenser lever for 
5 seconds, then release it for 5 seconds. Repeat until water 
begins to flow. Once water begins to flow, continue 
depressing and releasing the dispenser paddle (5 seconds 
on, 5 seconds off) until a total of 4 gal. (15 L) has been 
dispensed. This will flush air from the filter and water 
dispensing system, and prepare the water filter for use. 
Additional flushing may be required in some households. As 
air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of the 
dispenser. 

NOTE: After 5 minutes of continuous dispensing, the 
dispenser will stop dispensing water to avoid flooding. To 
continue dispensing, press the dispenser paddle again. 

■

Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill 
water. Dispense enough water every week to maintain a fresh 
supply.

1. Hold a container under the dispenser spout while pressing 

the dispenser pad.

2. Release the dispenser pad to stop dispensing.

Water Filtration System

The water filter is located in the upper right-hand corner of the 
refrigerator compartment. 

The water filter status lights will help you know when to change 
the water filter. When the Order light is on, it is almost time to 
change the water filter. When the Replace light is on, a new water 
filter should be installed. 

After replacing the water filter, press and hold FILTER RESET for 
3 seconds until the Order or Replace light turns off. See “Using 
the Controls.”

To purchase a replacement water filter, model 67003523 Part 
Number 4396395, contact your dealer or call 1-800-422-1230 
U.S.A. or 1-800-807-6777 Canada.

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 filter counterclockwise to remove.

2. Remove sealing label from replacement filter and insert the 

filter end into the filter head.

3. Turn the filter clockwise until it stops. Snap the filter cover 

closed.

4.  Flush the water system. Depending on your model, see 

“Water Dispenser” or “Water and Ice Dispensers.”

NOTE: The dispenser feature may be used without a water filter 
installed. Your water will not be filtered. If this option is chosen, 
replace the filter with the blue bypass cap.

REFRIGERATOR CARE

Cleaning

Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically. 
However, clean both sections about once a month to avoid 
buildup of odors. Wipe up spills immediately.

IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any 
odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must 
thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To avoid odor 
transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly.

NOTE: Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window 
sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes, 
concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing 
petroleum products on plastic parts, interior and door liners or 
gaskets. Do not use paper towels, scouring pads, or other harsh 
cleaning tools.

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.
