Water Filter Cartridge
The water filter cartridge is located in the
back upper right corner of the refrigerator
compartment.
When to Replace the Filter
There is a replacement indicator light for
the water filter cartridge on the temperature
display. This light will turn orange to tell you
that you need to replace the filter soon. The
filter cartridge should be replaced when the
replacement indicator light turns red or if the
flow of water to the dispenser or icemaker
decreases.
Installing the Filter Cartridge
If you are replacing the cartridge, first
remove the old one. Open the cartridge
cover by pressing in on the tab at the front
and pulling down.
Remove the cartridge by slowly rotating it
counterclockwise. A small amount of water
may drip down.
CAUTION: If air has been trapped in
the system, the filter cartridge may be ejected as it is
removed. Use caution when removing.
Remove the protective foil from the end of
the cartridge.
Lining up the arrow on the cartridge
and the cartridge holder, slowly rotate the
cartridge clockwise until it stops. When the
cartridge is properly installed, you will feel
it “click” as it locks into place. The grip on
the end of the cartridge should be
positioned vertically. Do not overtighten.
Close the cartridge cover.
Run water from the dispenser for
3 minutes (about 5 liters) to clear
the system and prevent sputtering.
See To Use the Dispenser section.
Press and hold the Water Filter Reset pad
for 3 seconds.
NOTE: A newly-installed water filter cartridge
may cause water to spurt from the dispenser.
Filter Bypass Plug
You must use the filter bypass plug when a
replacement filter cartridge is not available.
The icemaker will not operate without the filter
or filter bypass plug.
Replacement Filters:
Replacement filters can be ordered through a GE
authorized distributor.
