How It Works

Water passes through a specially engineered carbon block cartridge that adsorbs contaminants like chlorine, odors, heavy metals, and emerging pollutants while preventing sediment from entering your drinking supply. This ensures cleaner, safer, and better-tasting water.

Installation Instructions

1. Remove the Old Filter:
   • Locate the filter housing inside your refrigerator (usually found in the top right corner or between the vegetable drawers).
   • Turn the old filter Counter-Clockwise (to the left) until it unlocks.
   • Pull the cartridge straight out. Tip: Keep a small towel nearby to catch any minor water drips.
2. Prepare the New Filter:
   • Remove the protective plastic cap from the top of the new filter.
   • Ensure the two rubber O-rings are in place and not damaged.
3. Insert the New Filter:
   • Align the new filter with the housing and push it in firmly.
   • Turn the filter Clockwise (to the right) until it stops and locks into place.
   • Ensure the lock symbol on the filter aligns with the indicator arrow on the housing.
4. Flush the System (Crucial Step):
   • Dispense and discard approximately 3 to 4 gallons of water.
   • This removes any trapped air and loose carbon fines from the new cartridge, ensuring the water tastes fresh and flows smoothly.
5. Reset the Filter Indicator:
   • Locate the “Filter Reset” button on your refrigerator control panel.
   • Press and hold the button (often labeled “Water Filter” or “Ice Maker”) for 3 seconds until the light changes color or turns off.
