AUTOMATIC ICE AND WATER DISPENSER

PURESOURCE

* ICE AND WATER FILTER (SOME

MODELS)

System Startup:

Water supply does not need to be turned off, however, do not

use ice and water dispenser while installing filter. The filter

cartridge has already been installed in the filter housing at the

factory. Refer to the

How The Water Dispenser Works

section to

properly fill the system with water.

Changing the Filter:

Water conditions vary throughout the world, but changing the

water filter every 6 - 9 months normally will ensure the highest

possible water quality. The Filter Status light will turn red after

400 gallons of water has flowed through the ice and water

dispenser (some models). Also, if the filter has been in a

refrigerator that has not been in use for awhile (during moving

for example), change the filter before reinstalling the refrigerator.

Resetting The Filter Status Light (some models)

After replacing the filter cartridge, it will be necessary to

press the

Filter Status

reset button located on the ice and

water dispenser. This will reset the Filter Status light. Push

the reset button until the green, red and amber lights flash

(10-15 seconds). Please refer to the complete dispenser

operating instructions attached to the inside of the freezer

door.

On models without a

Filter Status

reset button, there is a

set of Reminder Stickers included in the envelope that the

Use & Care Manual came in. Choose a dated sticker that

indicates 6 - 9 months (depending on your water quality

and usage) from the date of installation. Place the sticker

on the front of the filter cup to remind you when it is time to

change the filter.

3 minutes to assure that the purest water possible is stored in

the water tank.
