To replace the water filter:
1  To access the water filter, pull out on the bottom edge 
of the access door and rotate upward. Refer to the 
illustration below.
2  To remove the old filter, rotate counterclockwise 
one-quarter turn, then pull out. It is normal for a small 
amount of water to drip when the filter is removed. It 
should be wiped up with a paper towel or cloth.
3  Remove the new filter from packaging and remove the 
plastic cap.
4  Insert the new filter into the manifold and turn clock-
wise.
5  Once the new filter has been installed, follow instruc-
tions on the control panel. The filter life cycle will reset 
for approximately one year.
Water Filtration System
The water filtration system supplies filtered water to the ice 
maker and water dispenser (dispenser models) to produce 
great-tasting water and ice.
IMPORTANT NOTE: When using the water filtration system 
for the first time and after filter replacement, it is neces-
sary to clear any air from the system and allow the filter 
to assist in cleaning the water lines. For non-dispenser 
models, discard the first two full containers of ice. For 
dispenser models, dispense several glasses of water for a 
period of two minutes.
If the water filtration system will not be used, it can be 
placed in water filter bypass mode by removing the filter. 
WATER FILTER
The water filter is rated for 300 gallons 
(1136 L) or one year, 
whichever comes first. "Snooze/Refresh" appears on the 
control panel when the filter needs to be replaced. Touch 
“Snooze” to delay the reminder for 24 hours or until the 
filter can be replaced.
