WATER FILTER INSTALLATION

of the refrigerator compartment. Push on the right side of the
lter door to open.
■ Align the arrow on the water lter cap with the cutout notch in
the lter housing and insert lter.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
WARNING
■ Once the lter is inserted, turn the lter clockwise 90° (1/4 turn)
until it locks into the housing.
■ Push water lter door closed to latch.
■ Flush 3 gallons (11.4 L) of water through the water system to
clear air from the water line and to keep the dispenser from
dripping and/or avoiding decreased dispenser ow.
NOTE: If the lter is not installed correctly, water may
dispense at a lower ow rate and there will be slower ice
production. Improper lter installation may also cause the
water lter housing to leak.

■ Ensure the refrigerator is level.
■ Keeping both refrigerator doors closed, pull out the freezer
drawer. Locate the bottom hinge pin of the right-hand
refrigerator door. The alignment screw is inside the bottom
hinge pin.

the Door Handle Installation Instructions) into the bottom hinge
pin until it is fully engaged in the alignment screw.
To raise the refrigerator door, turn the hex key to the right.
To lower the door, turn the hex key to the left.
