Locate the water filter in the top-right corner of the refrigerator

compartment.

2. Lift open the filter cover door. The filter will be released and

then eject as the door is opened.

3. When the door is completely open, pull the filter straight out.

NOTE: There may be some water in the filter. Some spilling

may occur. Use a towel to wipe up any spills.

4. Take the new filter out of its packaging and remove the covers

from the O-rings. Be sure the O-rings are still in place after the

covers are removed.

5. With the arrow pointing up, align the new filter with the filter

housing and slide it into place. The filter cover door will

automatically begin to close as the new filter is inserted.

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

into place. You may need to press hard.

7. Flush the water system.

IMPORTANT: After connecting the refrigerator to a water source

or replacing the water filter, flush the water system. Use a sturdy

container to depress and hold the water dispenser lever for

5 seconds, then release it for 5 seconds. Repeat until water

begins to flow. Once water begins to flow, continue depressing

and releasing the dispenser lever (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off)

until a total of 3 gal. (12 L) has been dispensed. This will flush air

from the filter and water dispensing system, and prepare the

water filter for use. Additional flushing may be required in some

households. As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt

out of the dispenser.
