4. In refrigerators, run 2 gallons of water through the
AutoFill pitcher to remove air from the system. A newly
installed filter cartridge will cause water to spurt and
dribble until the air is out of the system.
5. In freezers, empty the ice bin immediately after
changing the filter. After filter installation, the icemaker
may not immediately produce ice, and the first bin of ice
may be misshapen or discolored. Wait 6 to 12 hours so
the system can purge air. Discard this ice.
After filter Installation, water will spurt into the icemaker
body, which could lead to ice droplets around the
icemaker. NOTE: It is normal for these droplets to
appear discolored during the initial system flush. Normal
color will return after 6 to 12 hours.
