3. When the door is completely open, pull the filter straight out.

NOTE: There may be some water in the filter. Some spilling

may occur. Use a towel to wipe up any spills.

covers from the O-rings. Be sure the O-rings are still in place

after the covers are removed.

5. With the arrow pointing up, align the new filter with the filter

housing and slide it into place. The filter cover door will

automatically begin to close as the new filter is inserted.

6. Close the filter cover door completely in order to snap the

filter into place. You may need to press hard.

7. Flush the water system. See “Water and Ice Dispensers.”

REFRIGERATOR CARE

Cleaning

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.

To Clean Your Refrigerator:

NOTE: Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window

sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes,

concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing

petroleum products on plastic parts, interior and door liners or

gaskets. Do not use paper towels, scouring pads, or other harsh

cleaning tools.

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior

surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a

mild detergent in warm water.

3. Wash stainless steel and painted metal exteriors with a clean

sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.

4. There is no need for routine condenser cleaning in normal

home operating environments. If the environment is

particularly greasy or dusty, or there is significant pet traffic in

the home, the condenser should be cleaned every 2 to

3 months to ensure maximum efficiency.

If you need to clean the condenser:

■ Remove the base grille. See the “Door Removal”

instructions, either in the User Instructions or the

Installation Instructions and Owner’s Manual, or in the

separate instruction sheet provided with your refrigerator.

■ Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush to clean the grille,

the open areas behind the grille and the front surface area

of the condenser.

■ Replace the base grille when finished.

5. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

Lights

The interior and dispenser lights are LEDs that cannot be

changed.

■ If the dispenser lights do not appear to be working as

described in “Water and Ice Dispensers” (in the User

Instructions, User Guide, or Use & Care Guide) or if the

interior lights do not illuminate when either door is opened,

call for assistance or service. See either the front cover or the

Warranty for contact information.

Vacation and Moving Care

Vacations

If You Choose to Leave Refrigerator On While You Are Away:

1. Use up any perishables and freeze other items.

2. If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker and is

connected to the household water supply, turn off the water

supply to the refrigerator. Property damage can occur if the

water supply is not turned off.

3. If you have an automatic ice maker, turn off the ice maker.

NOTE: Depending on your model, raise the wire shutoff arm

to OFF (up) position or press the switch to OFF (right).

4. Empty the ice bin.

If You Choose to Turn Refrigerator Off Before You Leave:

1. Remove all food from the refrigerator.

2. If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker:

■ Turn off the water supply to the ice maker at least one day

ahead of time.

■ When the last load of ice drops, raise the wire shutoff arm

to the OFF (up) position or move the switch to the OFF

(right) setting.

3. Depending on the model, turn the Refrigerator Control to OFF

or turn cooling off. See “Using the Controls” in the User

Instructions, User Guide, or Use & Care Guide.

4. Clean, wipe, and dry thoroughly.

5. Tape rubber or wood blocks to the tops of both doors to prop

them open far enough for air to get in. This stops odor and

mold from building up.

WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Use nonflammable cleaner.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
