Water Filtration System
Water Filter Status Light
The water filter status light will help you know when to change
your water filter.

display changes to “ORDER,” this tells you that it is almost
time to change the water filter cartridge.
■ Replace the water filter cartridge when the water filter
status display changes to “REPLACE.”
NOTE: If water flow to your water dispenser or ice maker
decreases noticeably, change the filter sooner. The filter
should be replaced at least every 6 months, depending on
your water quality and usage.
You can check the remaining life of your water filter at any time.
■ Press SETTINGS, then press SETTINGS again. The display
screen will show how many more gallons of water the filter
can effectively filter. Press WATER/ICE to exit the filter
status screen.
NOTE: A new filter's “Gallons Remaining” display is 200.
The “ORDER” status begins at 40 gal. (151 L) remaining, and
the “REPLACE” status activates when the filter has 0 gal.

Resetting the Filter Status
■ After changing the water filter, reset the status light. Press

settings, be sure to press both buttons at exactly the same
time.

icons will disappear from the display screen.
NOTE: When the status displays “REPLACE,” you can
temporarily reset the status icon manually, without changing the
water filter. Press and hold the ACCENT LIGHT and
TEMPERATURE buttons at the same time for 3 seconds. The
“REPLACE” display will be turned off for 14 days. When it turns
back on, you can manually reset it again if desired.

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.
