Water Dispenser
(on some models)
If you did not flush the water system when the refrigerator was 
first installed, dispense water into a container until you draw and 
discard 2 to 3 gal. (8 to 12 L) or for approximately 5 minutes after 
the water begins dispensing. The water you draw and discard 
rinses the pipes. Allow several hours for the refrigerator to cool 
down and chill water.
Dispensing Water
There are two water dispenser buttons, as shown, for use with 
different sizes of containers.
1. Press a glass against the back button or hold a container 
under the dispenser while pressing the front button.
2. Remove the glass or release the front button to stop 
dispensing.
NOTE: Dispense enough water every week to maintain a fresh 
supply.
Water Filter Status Light
(on some models)
The water filter status light, located at the top of the refrigerator 
compartment, will help you know when to change your water 
filter. When the water filter status light changes from green to 
yellow, this tells you that it is almost time to change the water 
filter (90% of the filter life has been used). It is recommended that 
you replace the water filter when the water filter status light 
changes to red OR water flow to your water dispenser or ice 
maker decreases noticeably. To change the water filter, see 
“Water Filtration System.”
After changing the water filter, reset the water filter status light by 
pressing the light switch 5 times within 10 seconds. The status 
light will change from red to green when the system is reset. 
Non-Indicator Water Filter (on some models)
If your refrigerator does not have the water filter status light, you 
should change the water filter every 6 to 9 months depending 
upon your usage. If the water flow to the water dispenser or ice 
maker decreases noticeably before 6 months have passed, 
replace the water filter more often.
Water Filtration System 
NOTE: Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe 
or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before 
or after the system. 
Changing the Water Filter
1. Locate the filter cap in the front base grille. Rotate the cap 
counterclockwise to a vertical position and pull the cap and 
filter out through the base grille.
NOTE: There will be water in the filter. Some spilling may 
occur. 
2. Remove the cap by sliding it off the end of the used filter. The 
cap will slide to the left or right.
IMPORTANT: Do not discard the cap. It is part of your 
refrigerator. Keep the cap to use with the replacement filter. 
3. Take the new filter out of its packaging and remove the 
protective cover from the O-rings.
4. Slide the cap (removed in Step 2) onto the new filter. See 
illustration in Step 2.
5. With the cap in the vertical position, push the new filter into 
the base grille until it stops. Rotate the cap clockwise to a 
horizontal position. Flush the water system. See “Flushing the 
Water System After Replacing Filter.” 
Flushing the Water System After Replacing Filter
Use a sturdy container to depress the water dispenser bar until 
the water begins to flow. Flush the water system by dispensing 
and discarding 2 to 3 gal. (8 to 12 L) of water. Cleaning the 
system will take approximately 5 minutes and will help clear air 
from the line. Additional flushing may be required in some 
households.
NOTE: As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of 
the dispenser.
