Water Filtration System

The water filter is located in the upper right-hand corner of the
refrigerator compartment.
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.
Water Filter Status Lights
When a water filter has been installed in the refrigerator the water
filter status lights will remind you when it is time to order and
replace your water filter.
The Order light (yellow) will illuminate when 90% of the
■
volume of water for which the filter is rated has passed
through the filter OR 5 months have passed since the filter
was installed.
The Replace light (red) will illuminate when the rated volume
■
of water has passed through the filter OR 6 months have
passed since the filter was installed. A new water filter should
be installed immediately when the Replace light is illuminated.
The disposable water filter should be replaced at least every 6
months OR earlier if the flow of water to your water dispenser or
ice maker decreases noticeably.
Reset Water Filter Status
After replacing the water filter, press and hold Reset Filter or Filter
Reset (depending on your model) for 3 seconds. The Order and
Replace indicator lights will blink and then go off when the system
is reset. See "Using the Controls."
Replacing the Water Filter
To purchase a replacement water filter, model EDR4RXD1 or
EDR4RXD1B, see "Accessories."
IMPORTANT: Air trapped in the water system may cause water
and filter to eject. Always dispense water for at least 2 minutes
before removing the filter or blue bypass cap.
1. Turn filter counterclockwise to remove.
2. Remove sealing label from replacement filter and insert the
filter end into the filter head.
3. Turn the filter clockwise until it stops. Snap the filter cover
closed.
4. Flush the water system. See "Water Dispenser" or "Water and
Ice Dispenser."
NOTE: The dispenser feature may be used without a water filter
installed. Your water will not be filtered. If this option is chosen,
replace the filter with the blue bypass cap.

REFRIGERATOR CARE

WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Risk of fire or explosion. Flammable refrigerant used.
Do not use mechanical devices to defrost refrigerator.
Do not puncture refrigerant tubing.
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Use nonflammable cleaner.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically.
However, clean both sections about once a month to avoid
buildup of odors. Wipe up spills immediately.
IMPORTANT:
Because air circulates between both sections, any odors
■
formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must
thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To avoid
odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods
tightly.
For stainless steel models, stainless steel is corrosion
■
resistant and not corrosion-proof. To help avoid corrosion of
your stainless steel, keep your surfaces clean by using the
following cleaning instructions.
