The Dispenser Lock
The dispenser can be turned off for easy cleaning or to avoid unintentional
dispensing by small children and pets.
NOTE: The lock feature does not shut off power to the refrigerator, to the
ice maker, or to the dispenser light. It simply deactivates the controls and
dispenser pad. To turn off the ice maker, see "Ice Maker and Storage Bin."
Press and hold LOCK for 3 seconds to lock the dispenser.
Press and hold LOCK a second time to unlock the dispenser.
The display screen indicates when the dispenser is locked.
Water Filtration System
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.
Water Filter Status Light
The water filter status light will help you know when to change your water
filter.
When the dispenser control panel's water filter status display changes
to "ORDER," this tells you that it is almost time to change the water
filter cartridge.
Replace the water filter cartridge when the water filter status display
changes to "REPLACE."
NOTE: If water flow to your water dispenser or ice maker decreases
noticeably, change the filter sooner. The filter should be replaced at
least every 6 months, depending on your water quality and usage.
You can check the remaining life of your water filter at any time.
Press SETTINGS, then press SETTINGS again. The display screen will
show how many more gallons of water the filter can effectively filter.
Press WATER/ICE to exit the filter status screen.
NOTE: A new filter's "Gallons Remaining" display is 200. The
"ORDER" status begins at 40 gal. (151 L) remaining, and the
"REPLACE" status activates when the filter has 0 gal. remaining.
Resetting the Filter Status
After changing the water filter, reset the status light. Press and hold
TEMPERATURE and SETTINGS at the same time for 3 seconds.
IMPORTANT: To avoid unintentionally changing other settings, be sure
to press both buttons at exactly the same time.
When the system is reset, the "ORDER" and "REPLACE" icons will
disappear from the display screen.
NOTE: When the status displays "REPLACE," you can temporarily reset the
status icon manually, without changing the water filter. Press and hold the
ACCENT LIGHT and TEMPERATURE buttons at the same time for
3 seconds. The "REPLACE" display will be turned off for 14 days. When it
turns back on, you can manually reset it again if desired.

6. Close the filter cover door completely in order to snap the filter into

Ice Maker and Storage Bin
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the first three
batches of ice produced.
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 use anything sharp to break up the ice in the storage bin. This
can cause damage to the ice container and the dispenser mechanism.
Do not store anything on top of or in the ice maker or storage bin.
