CHANGING THE WATER AND AIR FILTERS
Your refrigerator is equipped with separate water and air
ltering systems. The water lter system lters all the water
used to produce ice. The air lter removes odors and impu-
rities from the refrigerator compartment.
NOTE
The control panel includes controls to monitor the
status of your water and air lters. See the Controls
section for more information.
About your advanced water lter
The lter system is tested and certi-
ed by NSF International to NSF/ANSI
Standards 42 and 53 for the reduction
of claims specied on the performance
data sheet.
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of
unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or af-
ter the system. Systems certied for cyst reduction may be
used on disinfected waters that may contain lterable cysts.

Water lter
The water lter is located at the lower left side of the
fresh food compartment.
Replacing your water lter
In general, you should change the water lter every six
months to ensure the highest possible water quality. The
Water Filter Status light on the Touch Panel prompts you
to replace the lter after the six month time period has
elapsed. The water lter status light on this model is not
performance tested or certied by NSF.
If your refrigerator has not been used for a period of time
(during moving for example), change the lter before rein-
stalling the refrigerator.
It is not necessary to turn the water supply off to change
the lter. Be ready to wipe up any small amounts of water
released during the lter replacement.
1. Push the lter release button above the cartridge to
disconnect it.
2. Slide the old water lter cartridge straight out of the
housing and discard it.
3. Unpack the new lter cartridge and remove the two pro-
tective caps covering the inlet and exit of the lter. Slide
the lter gently into the housing until it stops against the
snap-in connector at the back of the housing.
