Water Filter Removal and Installation
To avoid serious illness or death, do not use unit where water is unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate
disinfection before or after use of filter.
• Bypass cartridge DOES NOT filter water. Be sure to have replacement cartridge available when filter change is required.
• If water filtration system has been allowed to freeze, replace filter cartridge.
• If system has not been used for several months, and water has an unpleasant taste or odor, flush system by dispensing
2–3 glasses of water. If unpleasant taste or odor persists, change filter cartridge.
Initial Install of Water Filter
1
Remove blue bypass cap and
retain for later use.
2
Remove sealing label from
end of filter and insert into
filter head.
• Rotate gently clockwise until filter stops
and snap filter cover closed.
3
Reduce water spurts by flushing air from
system. Run water continuously
(approximately 2 minutes) through
dispenser until water runs steady.
• Additional flushing may be required in some households
where water is of poor quality.
I'm trying to dispense water to
flush the system. Where's the water?
During initial use, allow about a 1 to 2 minute delay to
allow internal water tank to fill.
What if I choose not to use the water
filtration system?

If you choose this option, replace filter with blue bypass
cap.
