Data Sheet, and to NSF/ANSI 372 (50.25% lead).
Installation instructions
Before installation:
- Shut off the cold-water supply to the refrigerator before installation. Turn on the refrigerator water dispenser to release water pressure, letting water drain from the pipe completely.
- It is normal for black carbon fines (particles) to appear on the outside of your filter. This happens when the filter is jarred in shipping. It is safe to simply wipe it off.
- The filter connectors are larger to prevent leaks. You might have to twist the filter hard to make sure the connection is secure.
-
Locate existing filter and remove it by turning it counter clockwise as shown in the graphic.
-
Holding the new filter in your hands, carefully remove the packaging and sanitary end-cap from the new filter.
-
Apply slight upward pressure and rotate the filter clockwise. Ensure filter is fully installed in refrigerator head a full 1/4 turn. This is required to activate the internal valve inside the refrigerator. If the filter is not turned a full 1/4, the valve will not fully open and may cause the water flow to be slow, or even cause the valve to make a chattering noise during use.
-
Dispense water into glass looking for good water flow. If flow is slow, remove and reinstall filter ensuring that the filter is a full 1/4 turn.
Note: Initial flow rate may be slower than expected. Full flow rate should be restored within 24-36 hours. -
Check filter one more time for any leaks.
-
Run water from the dispenser for 5 minutes at 0.5 gpm (about 2.5 gallons) to clear the system and prevent sputtering.
Resetting your filter indicator
Note: These are the most common filter reset instructions. If the instructions don’t work for your refrigerator brand, see the documentation that came with your refrigerator.
Refrigerator brand | Instructions |
---|---|
Samsung® systems | Press and hold the ICE TYPE and CHILD LOCK buttons for |
three seconds. The water filter indicator should turn green.
Note: Only hold these buttons for three seconds. Holding these buttons
for five seconds cancels the reset. If you cancel the reset, repeat the
procedure.
Storage and maintenance:
- Replace your filter every 6 months or 300 gallons to prevent bacteria and fungus growth in your filter, supply lines, and storage tank.
- Keep your unused filters in a cool, dark, and dry place until you need them.
- If you do not use your water dispenser for more than four days, run two gallons of water before using it to prevent bad tasting water.
Frequently asked questions:
Q: Why is it difficult to twist the new filter into the filter housing?
A: The connector may expand because of water pressure. Therefore, it is
recommended you push the new filter in with a little bit of force, but not too
hard. Then turn it clockwise.
Q: Do I need to flush the filter after installation?
A: After installation, it is highly recommended you run water for a few
minutes before using. Water filters are made from advanced coconut carbon
block, so there are some carbon fines in the filter. Flushing removes the
carbon fines to produce clean water.
Q: Must the filter be changed every 6 months?
A: Yes, you must replace the filter every six months or sooner if water
flow is reduced or if there is heavy sediment / rust present. Over-used
filters will degrade the filtration performance.
