WATER FILTER MONITORING AND REPLACEMENT FUNCTION (ON SOME MODELS)
Water filter indicator light function (if present) At the time of purchase of the product and after replacement, the filter symbol in green. The filter symbol can become red according to product use and the natural depletion of the filter charge. When a new filter is required, the the symbol on the display turns yellow (99% of filter life has been used). Important: The filter must only be replaced when the symbol on the display is red. At this point the filter cartridge must be replaced. Replace the filter cartridge, then press the RESET button until the system has reset with the symbol becoming green. Note: The RESET button does not work when the filter indicator light is green. Appliances with an ice maker or water dispenser must be connected to a water supply which delivers potable water only. Ice makers and/ or water dispensers not directly connected to a mains water supply must be filled with potable water only.
CHANGING A WATER FILTER CARTRIDGE
The water filter is situated under the freezer compartment door. 1. Locate the water filter cartridge cap in the front base grille below the freezer compartment door. Rotate the cap counterclockwise to a vertical position and pull the cap and filter cartridge out through the base grille. NOTE: Since there is water in the cartridge, some spilling may occur. 2. Remove the cartridge cap by sliding it off the end of the old cartridge. The cap will slide to the left or right. DO NOT DISCARD THE CAP. 3. Take the new cartridge out of the pack and remove the protection from seals. 4. Slide the cartridge cap onto the new cartridge as shown. 5. With cartridge cap in the vertical position, push the new filter cartridge into the base grille until it stops. Rotate the cartridge cap clockwise to a horizontal position. 6. RUN WATER THROUGH THE DISPENSER UNTIL THE WATER RUNS CLEAR (about 9-14 litres or 6-7 minutes). This will clean the system and clear air from the lines. NOTE: as air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of the dispenser. Ordering replacement filters To order other water filter cartridges, contact authorised Whirlpool dealers.
