The dispenser lights are LEDs which should not need to be 
changed.

■

When you use the dispenser, the lever will automatically turn 
the light on. If you want the light to be on continuously, you 
may choose either On or Auto. 

Auto: The light sensor monitors the light level in the room. The 
dispenser light will illuminate at half-power when the light level is 
low. To activate the Auto option press the “light” button. The Auto 
indicator light will illuminate. 

On: For continuous light, press the “light” button a second time. 
The On indicator light will illuminate.

Off: To turn the dispenser light off, press the “light” button a third 
time.

The dispenser can be locked for easy cleaning or to avoid 
unintentional dispensing by small children and pets. 

NOTE: The dispenser lock does not shut off power to the 
product, to the ice maker, or to the dispenser light. It just 
deactivates the dispenser lever.

Press and hold the “control lock” touch pad for three seconds to 
lock the dispenser. The indicator light will illuminate when Lock is 
on.

Press and hold the “control lock” touch pad again for 
three seconds to unlock dispenser. The indicator light will turn 
off.   

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

The water filter indicator lights will remind you when it is time to 
order and replace your water filter. When the yellow (Order) light 
is on, it is almost time to change the water filter. When the red 
(Replace) light is on, a new water filter should be installed. It is 
recommended that you replace the water filter when the indicator 
light changes to red OR earlier if the flow of water to your water 
dispenser or ice maker decreases noticeably.

After replacing the water filter, press and hold the Reset Filter pad 
for three seconds. The Order and Replace indicator lights will 
blink and then go off when the system is reset. 

To purchase a replacement water filter, model UFK8001AXX-750, 
contact your dealer or call 1-877-232-6771 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.

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.

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.

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior 

surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a 
mild detergent in warm water. 

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.
