Panasonic NRB53VW2 Operating Guide

Appendix

Change the water filter periodically. As a rule of thumb, it should be changed once every six months.

When it is time to change the filter, the “

” icon appears on the Ice/Water dispenser panel. 

This time differs depending on the quantity of water used as well as the quality and pressure of the water, and it 

may be much shorter than six months.
Also change the water filter under the following circumstances:

 

● When the ice or water have odours or an unpleasant taste (this means that the filter capacity is reduced)

 

● When the amount of water entering the refrigerator has diminished (this means that the filter is clogged)

How to change the filter

Follow the steps for removing the filter in reverse.

Run water through the Water dispenser until the water runs clear for 5

the water supply hose.

● When the water filter has been removed, the water inside it may spill.  

If water has spilled, remove the 5° Fresh Zone drawer and wipe up the water at the bottom of the 

refrigerator.

 

● When a new water filter is to be purchased, ask your dealer or an authorized service centre to supply you 

with one.
