  1. If the top shelf below the water filter is in its highest position, tilt one side of the shelf, lift it and pull it out.
  2. Pinch the sides of the water filter cover to open it.
  3. Pull the water filter downward and turn it counterclockwise, rotating it down completely before pulling it out of the manifold hole. Hold the removed filter upright.
  4. Take the new filter out of its packing and remove the protective cover from the o-rings.
  5. With the filter tabs horizontal, push the new filter into the manifold hole and turn it clockwise until it stops.
  6. Close the water filter cover. It clicks when closed correctly.
  7. Flush the water line. See Flush the water line after installation or a filter change.
  8. Press and hold the Water Filter button for three seconds to reset the indicator light.

Replacing the filter drains about 1 oz (25 cc) of water.
