What Is The Process To Reset The Refrigerator? Is Was Working, Unplugged And

Step 1:

Reset your water filter indicator light - Most new refrigerators come equiped with an indicator light that notifies you when it is time to change your water filter. This light does not automatically reset when you change your water filter.

Light Reset Instructions by Manufacturer:

• Amana Refrigerators - Press and hold the Auto and Dispenser Lock buttons until the water filter status indicator light flashes.
• Frigidaire Refrigerators - Press and Hold the Reset Button Until the Indicator Light Flashes.
• GE General Electric Refrigerators - Press and Hold the Reset Button for around 8 Seconds.

• Samsung Refrigerators - Press and Hold the Ice Type and Child Lock Buttons at the same time for 3 seconds.
• Whirlpool Refrigerators - Press and Release the Light Button 5 times Quickly.

Step 2:

Flush a couple of gallons of water through your new filter. Since most refrigerator water filters are made of carbon, some carbon residue is present in the first gallon or two of water. This will leave a bitter taste and residue in your water. If you continue to have these problems after flushing a couple of gallons through the filter, it is possible that you have a defective water filter.

Once these two steps are completed, you are all set to enjoy great tasting ice and water through your refrigerator. If you don't see your manufacturer listed or the insructions don't work for your model please post a comment with your make and model number so that we can provide exact instructions for your model.

Look inside your refrigerator and locate the temperature control switch. This is usually situated around the middle of the refrigerator's back panel. Some switches have a wheel mechanism, whereas others use digital displays.

Turn the temperature control wheel down to zero or switch to "Off" if you have a digital display.

Move your refrigerator away from the wall. Refrigerators are extremely heavy, so enlist the help of another person, if possible.

Unplug the refrigerator cord from the wall outlet. Leave unplugged for around two or three minutes.

Attach the power supply back to the wall outlet and position the refrigerator back against the wall. Your refrigerator temperature is now reset. Switch the temperature control back to "On" and adjust the temperature to the level required.

Open the ice making area of your refrigerator if it is producing watery ice cubes or an inconsistent water supply.

Locate the water filter status light inside the ice maker. This is usually a small rectangular light situated at the side of the ice maker.

Push the switch next to the status light seven or eight times in quick succession. This will reset your ice maker.

Check the status light. This should turn from red to green once the switch has been pressed several times. The green color indicates the ice maker has been reset.

Thanks.
