5. Flush 3 gallons of water through the
lter before drinking or using the water
from the refrigerator.

and remove air from the lines.

press a large glass or cup against the water
dispenser lever. Fill the glass, empty it into
the kitchen sink after it is lled, and then
repeat.

• Additional ushing may be required in
some households.
6. Open the refrigerator door and make
sure there are no water leaks coming
from the water lter.
NOTE
• After you turn on the refrigerator, let the
ice maker make ice for 1 to 2 days.
Over that period of time, throw out the
rst 1 or 2 buckets of ice the ice maker
makes to ensure all impurities have been
removed from the water line.
• Only connect the water line to a
drinkable water source.
• If you have to repair or disassemble the
water line, cut off 1/4” (6.35 mm) of the
plastic tubing to make sure you get a
snug, leak-free connection.
• You can test the water line quickly using
a paper cup. Under normal conditions,
the water dispenser can ll a 5.75 oz.
(170 cc) cup in about 10 seconds.
