Refrigerator Water Filter RPWFE

Hi Paul, Thank you for your question. There is no need to turn the water supply off to the refrigerator before replacing your filter. To locate the filter look into the upper left corner of the refrigerator. When you have located the filter, place a towel on the shelf just under where the filter is in case any water spills out. Open the door and swing the filter to the right until it stops. The filter will not release until it is in this position and simply pull the old cartridge out without twisting it. Align the top of the new filter in the holder with the word front facing outward. Firmly push the filter in until it engages to insure it is properly seated. Again being careful not to twist the filter. Swing filter back into place and close the filter door. If your filter does not swing into place, make sure that it has been aligned and engaged properly. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Hello Azucena, Thank you for your inquiry. I would try taking the filter out and make sure the lines are clean. I have included the installation steps as well. If your fridge still is not dispensing water I would check your water inlet valve and the line that runs from it to the filter. Hope this helps! Before removing the old filter, place a cloth beneath the filter to catch the few drops of water that may fall when the filter is removed. Grasp the filter and turn it to the left until it stops, while gently pulling downward from the filter head. Keep the filter level to minimize water spillage. (If the filter doesn't come loose easily, air may be trapped inside. To relieve any pressure, push in on the water dispenser; the filter should drop right out.) Remove and discard the plastic cap from the new filter. Fill the top of the replacement filter with water from the tap. Place the filter inside the cartridge holder by aligning the arrow on your filter with the cartridge holder. Push the filter gently upward to engage the top of the cartridge in the filter head. Slowly turn the filter to the right until the filter cartridge stops turning. As you turn the cartridge, it will automatically rise into position. After the filter has been replaced, trapped air must be purged out of the system. Select Water on the dispenser selector and press the pad until water begins to flow. The first few ounces of water may sputter due to air in the replacement filter. This is normal. Continue to dispense approximately 1-2 gallons of water to make sure all air is purged from the system.

Hello Bonnie, Thank you for the question. The installation and removal instructions vary slightly. Grey Model: Pull the bottom of the old cartridge allowing it to swing outward. Pull to free the cartridge from the holder without twisting it. To install the new filter, center it with the holder, making sure the word "FRONT" is facing forward and centered. Swing the filter inwards until it is positioned. Black Model: Pull on the bottom of the old cartridge to unlock it from the clips. Swing it outward until you hear a clicking sound. Now twist the cartridge one-quarter of a turn counter-clockwise. Pull it out to remove. To install the new filter, match the filter cartridge with the holder, making sure the word "FRONT" is facing the top of the appliance. Push the filter toward the back of the appliance until it is secured. Twist it clockwise one-quarter of a turn so the word "FRONT" is facing outward. Swing filter inward until it is secured. We hope this helps!
