Water Filter Status
Indicator Models
• The disposable water filter should be replaced when the
Replace light is lit, or at least every 6 months. If the water
flow to the water dispenser or ice maker decreases
noticeably before 6 months have passed, replace the water
filter more often.
• After replacing the water filter, press and hold the Filter
Reset touch pad for 3 seconds until the Order or Replace
light turns off. See "Using the Controls."
Non-Indicator Models
• The disposable water filter should be replaced at least every
6 months. If the water flow to the water dispenser or ice
maker decreases noticeably before 6 months have passed,
replace the water filter more often.
4. Flush the water system. See "Water System Preparation."
5. Inspect the water filter system for leaks. If you see water
leaks, see "Troubleshooting."
Using the Dispenser Without a Water Filter
You can use the water dispenser without a water filter, but your
water will not be filtered. If you choose this option, replace the
water filter with the blue bypass cap.
ce
IMPORTANT= Flush the water system before turning on the ice
maker. See "Water Dispenser."
Turning the Ice Maker On/Off
To turn the ice maker ON, simply lower the wire shutoff arm.
To manually turn the ice maker OFF, lift the wire shutoff arm to
the OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click.
NOTE= Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. As ice is made,
the ice cubes will fill the ice storage bin and the ice cubes will
raise the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position. Do not
force the wire shutoff arm up or down.
NOTE= Turn off the ice maker before removing the ice storage
bin to serve ice or to clean the bin. This will keep the ice cubes
from dropping out of the ice maker and into the freezer
compartment. After replacing the ice storage bin, turn on the ice
maker.
