Filter In Refrigerator

• 1). Open the refrigerator door and find the tab on the end of the filter housing facing you. Press in the tab with your thumb and lower the bottom half of the housing down.
  
  
• 2). Turn the water filter counterclockwise with your hand until it disengages from the filter head. Pull the filter completely out of the housing. Hold the filter upside down over the sink to drain the water out before throwing the filter into the garbage.
  
  
• 3). Remove the cap from the top of the new water filter. Insert the end of the filter into the filter head. Turn the filter clockwise until it locks into position.
  
  
• 4). Raise the lower half of the housing to the upper half and press until the two pieces lock together.
  
  
• 5). Place a glass under the water dispenser and fill the glass with water. Empty the glass of water into the sink and fill it again. Continue this filling and emptying process until the water runs clear from the dispenser and there are no more air bursts.
