3. Run two gallons (7.57 liters) of water through
the cold water dispenser (about 5 minutes) to
remove air from the system. A newly installed
filter cartridge will cause water to spurt from
the dispenser. Use a large pitcher or sports
bottle to catch the water spray.
4. Reset Filter Status message (non-touch screen
models).
NOTE: It is normal for water to appear discolored
during the initial system flush. Water color
will return to normal after first few minutes of
dispensing.
