Water Filtration System
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of
unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the
system. Systems certified for cyst reduction may be used on
disinfected waters that may contain filterable cysts.
IMPORTANT: The disposable water filter should be replaced at
least every 6 months. If the water flow to the water dispenser or
ice maker decreases noticeably before 6 months have passed,
replace the water filter more often.
Install the Water Filter
To order a replacement filter, contact us at www.whirlpool.com/
Parts & Accessories. See the “Quick Start Guide” for details.
NOTE: If the filter is not installed correctly, water may dispense at
a lower flow rate and there will be slower ice production. Improper
filter installation may also cause the water filter housing to leak.
Style 1— Right-Hand Side of Refrigerator Ceiling
1. Locate the accessory packet in the refrigerator and remove
the water filter.
2. Take the water filter out of its packaging.
3. The water filter compartment is located in the right-hand side
of the refrigerator ceiling. Push up on the compartment door to
release the catch, then lower the door.
4. Align the arrow on the water filter label with the cutout notch in
the filter housing and insert the filter into the housing.
5. Turn the filter clockwise 90 degrees (1/4 turn), until it locks into
the housing.
NOTE: If the filter is not correctly locked into the housing, the
water dispenser will not operate. Water will not flow from the
dispenser.
6. While the compartment door is still open, lift the filter up into
the compartment. Then, close the filter compartment door
completely.
7. Flush the water system. See “Water and Ice Dispensers” for
details.
IMPORTANT: If you do not flush the water system, you may
experience dripping and/or decreased flow from the water
dispenser.
