USE AND CARE GUIDE
ICE & WATER REFRIGERATOR FILTER
Safety Information
Pre-installation
Shut off the cold-water supply to the refrigerator before installation. Turn on the refrigerator
water dispenser to release water pressure, letting water drain from the pipe completely.
It is normal for black carbon nes (particles) to appear on the outside of your lter. This happens
when the lter is jarred in shipping. It is safe to simply wipe it off.
The lter connectors are larger to prevent leaks. You might have to twist the lter hard to make
sure the connection is secure.
Installation
Locate the lter cartridge holder in the back upper right hand corner of the refrigerator. To open
the cartridge cover, push in where indicated and the cover will drop down.
Remove old lter by slowly rotating it to the left. A small amount of water may drip down.
Position the cartridge inside the cartridge holder and slowly rotate the cartridge to the right until
it stops. When the cartridge is properly installed, you will feel it “click” as it locks into place. Do
not over tighten.
Close the cartridge cover.

A replacement for the following water lters:
Operating Temperature: 33°F -100°F/0.6°C - 38°C
Working Pressure: 20 psi -100 psi/140 kPa - 689 kPa
Rated Capacity: 200 gallons/757 litres
Flow Rate: 0.5 gpm/1.9 Ipm
Operating specications:
The system has been tested and certified by the NSF International and IAPMO R&T according to
NSF/ANSI Standards 42, 53, and 401 for the reduction of the substances listed below.
The concentration of the indicated substances in water entering the system was reduced to a concen-
tration less than or equal to the permissible limit for the water leaving the system, as specified by
NSF/ANSI Standards 42, 53, and 401. While testing was performed under standard laboratory
conditions, actual performance may vary.

Q: Why is it difcult to twist the new lter into the lter housing?
A: The connector may expand because of water pressure. Therefore, it is recommended you push the
new filter in with a little bit of force, but not too hard. Then turn it clockwise.
Q: Do I need to ush the lter after installation?
A: After installation, it is highly recommended you run water for a few minutes before using. Water
filters are made from advanced coconut carbon block, so there are some carbon fines in the filter.
Flushing removes the carbon fines to produce clean water.
Q: Must the lter be changed every 6 months?
A: Yes, you must replace the filter every six months or sooner if water flow is reduced or if there is
heavy sediment / rust present. Over-used filters will degrade the filtration performance.
Troubleshooting
Storage and Maintenance
Replace your lter every 6 months or 200 gallons to prevent bacteria and fungus growth in your
lter, supply lines, and storage tank.
Keep your unused lters in a cool, dark, and dry place until you need them.
If you do not use your water dispenser for more than four days, run two gallons of water before
using it to prevent bad tasting water.
Run water from the dispenser for 5 minutes at 0.5 gpm (about 2.5 gallons) to clear the system
and prevent sputtering.
Resetting your lter indicator:
