INFORMATION ABOUT THE WATER FILTER CARTRIDGE XWF-INT
WATER FILTER CARTRIDGE
The water filter cartridge is located at the upper right
rear end of the refrigerator's fresh cooking compart-
ment.
Selected models use radio frequency identification
(RFID) to detect leaks and monitor filter status.
WHEN TO REPLACE THE FILTER
If there is a water filter cartridge replacement indicator
light on the dispenser, a red filter light will begin flash-
ing to indicate that the filter needs to be replaced soon.
- On models with a top control, the filter light will blink
while the door is open until the filter is replaced.
On models that do not have an indicator light, the filter
cartridge should be replaced every six months, or
sooner if there is a reduction in water flow to the
dispenser or ice machine.
FILTER REMOVAL
If you are replacing the filter, first remove the old one:
1. Open the filter cartridge housing by pressing the 2
front tabs and gently pushing down.
2. Rotate the filter downwards.
3. Gently pick up the filter and slowly turn it approxi-
mately 1/4 counterclockwise. The filter should release
automatically when you have rotated it far enough to
the left. A small amount of water may leak out.
CAUTION
If air got caught in the system, it is possible that the
cartridge will be ejected at the time it is removed. Be
careful when removing it.

FILTER BYPASS PLUG
In order to reduce the risk of property damage due to
water loss, you MUST use the filter bypass plug when
filter cartridge replacement is not available. The
dispenser and ice machine will not operate if the filter
or filter bypass plug is not installed. The filter bypass
plug is installed in the same manner as a filter
cartridge.
INSTALLATION OF THE FILTER IN THE
REFRIGERATOR WITH FREEZER IN THE
INFERIOR PART

housing by pressing the 2
front tabs and gently push-
