Dispenser Lock

The dispenser can be locked for easy cleaning or to avoid

to the ice maker, or to the dispenser light. It just deactivates the

dispenser lever.

To Lock and Unlock Dispenser:

Press and hold the Locked touch pad for 3 seconds to lock the

dispenser. The indicator light will illuminate when Lock is on.

Press and hold the Locked touch pad again for 3 seconds to

unlock dispenser. The indicator light will turn off.

Water Filtration System

The water filter is located in the upper right-hand corner of the

refrigerator compartment.

Water Filter Status

When a water filter has been installed in the refrigerator, the

control panel will remind you when it is time to order and replace

your water filter by displaying a message when you dispense

water.

■ The “Order Water Filter” icon will illuminate when 90% of the

volume of water for which the filter is rated has passed

through the filter OR 5 months have passed since the filter

was installed.

■ The “Replace Water Filter” icon will illuminate when the rated

volume of water has passed through the filter OR 6 months

have passed since the filter was installed. A new water filter

should be installed immediately when you see the “Replace

Water Filter” message.

The disposable water filter should be replaced at least every

months OR earlier if the flow of water to your water dispenser or

ice maker decreases noticeably.

Reset Water Filter Status

After replacing the water filter, you must reset the water filter

status to turn off the message.

1. On main menu, press the touch pad next to “Options.”

2. In each of the following screens, continue to press the touch

pad next to “More Options” until you reach the “Replace Filter

screen.”

3. Press the touch pad next to “YES” to reset the water filter

status. Press the touch pad next to “NO” if you do not wish to

reset the water filter status.

Replacing the Water Filter

To purchase a replacement water filter, model UKF8001AXX-750

or UKF8001AXX-200, contact your dealer or call 1-800-422-1230

U.S.A. or 1-800-807-6777 Canada.

IMPORTANT: Air trapped in the water system may cause water

and filter to eject. Always dispense water for at least 2 minutes

before removing the filter or blue bypass cap.

1. Turn filter counterclockwise to remove.

2. Remove sealing label from replacement filter and insert the

filter end into the filter head.

3. Turn the filter clockwise until it stops. Snap the filter cover

closed.

4. Flush the water system. See “Water Dispenser” or “Water and

Ice Dispenser.”

NOTE: The dispenser feature may be used without a water filter

installed. Your water will not be filtered. If this option is chosen,

replace the filter with the blue bypass cap.

REFRIGERATOR CARE

Cleaning

Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically.

However, clean both sections about once a month to avoid

buildup of odors. Wipe up spills immediately.

IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any

odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must

thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To avoid odor

transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly.

To Clean Your Refrigerator:

NOTE: Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window

sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes,

concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing

petroleum products on plastic parts, interior and door liners or

gaskets. Do not use paper towels, scouring pads, or other harsh

cleaning tools.

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior

surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a

mild detergent in warm water.

3. Wash stainless steel and painted metal exteriors with a clean

sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.

■ To keep your stainless steel refrigerator looking like new

and to remove minor scuffs or marks, it is suggested that

you use the manufacturer’s approved Stainless Steel

Cleaner and Polish, Part Number 4396920. To order the

cleaner, call 1-800-422-1230 U.S.A. or 1-800-807-6777

Canada.

IMPORTANT: This cleaner is for stainless steel parts only!

Do not allow the Stainless Steel Cleaner and Polish to come

into contact with any plastic parts such as the trim pieces,

dispenser covers or door gaskets. If unintentional contact

does occur, clean plastic part with a sponge and mild

detergent in warm water. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.

Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or

of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before

or after the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction

may be used on disinfected waters that may contain

filterable cysts.

WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Use nonflammable cleaner.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
