Whenever water of unknown quality is passed through
the GE Water Filtration system, filter elements should be
discarded and the filtration system flushed.
Circumstances that may require flushing the system are:
I Boil-water advisory.
I Flooding of the GE Water Filtration system.
I Long-term non-use.
CAUTION: Never remove the sumps
when water pressure is in the Water
Filtration system.
Close the water supply/saddle valve
1
to the filter. Open the filtered water
faucet.
Remove the sump, using the sump
2
wrench tool (not included), from the
filter head by rotating the sump as
shown in the below illustration.
Be careful, the sump may be full
of water. Be sure to keep the large
o-ring seal.
If you are replacing a filter cartridge,
3
remove and discard the used filter
cartridge.
Be sure the inside of the sump is
4
clean. Thoroughly wash the inside
of the sump with hot, soapy water
and rinse.
Remove the wrapper from the new
5
filter cartridge and insert the filter
cartridge in the sump. Some cartridges
fit either way, while others fit only one
way. Observe markings on the cartridge.
NOTE: The Water Filtration system
uses different types of filter cartridges.
Be sure to install them correctly.
Lightly lubricate the o-ring seal in the
6
sump with clean food grade silicone
grease (silicone grease is available
through GE Parts and Service:
1.800.626.2002, Part number WS60X10005).
Be sure it is fully seated in its groove.
Hold the sump up to the filter head,
7
aligning the center hole in the
cartridge with the protrusion on the
bottom of the head. Failure to obtain
proper alignment may cause damage
to the filter and/or filtration system
which will degrade filter performance.

FLUSH PROCEDURE

FILTER CARTRIDGE INSTALLATION OR REPLACEMENT

Being careful not to cross-thread,
8
rotate the sump onto the filter head
and tighten securely by hand.
NOTE: If the sump will not tighten up
to the head or if you feel resistance,
you may have the cartridge in upside
down or misaligned. Take the
cartridge out and check for correct
orientation and reassemble.
Turn on the filtered water faucet.
9
Then, slowly open the water supply/
saddle valve and allow the filter
housing to fill.
Close the filtered water faucet. Then,
10
check for leaks between the sump and
the head.
NOTE: If leaking, turn off the water
supply and turn on the filtered water
faucet. Disassemble the filter housing
and check the o-ring for cuts, flat
spots, etc., and sealing surfaces for
foreign material. Clean the o-ring and
lightly lubricate with clean silicone
grease. Carefully press into the groove
in the sump. Reassemble and check
for leaks.
The filter cartridges contain activated
11
carbon. When new, turn on the
filtered water faucet for five minutes
to flush the system.

12
inside cabinet door or in another
convenient location. Write in date
of filter change for future reference.
