Internet connectivity and a wireless router to enable

interconnection with an Energy Management System,

and/or with other external devices, systems or

applications.

What is Demand Response?

Some utilities vary their electricity rates based on the

WLPHRIGD\6RPHXWLOLWLHVRIIHU'HPDQG5HVSRQVH

programs to reduce energy usage during certain times

of the day. Some utilities may do both things. This

high energy features, like defrost, for a 4-hour window.

This window corresponds to the average peak energy

usage. This feature is enabled or disabled with the

SmartHQTM and requires the SmartHQTM to operate. It

does not depend on the local utility, or whether it varies

the electricity rates.

XWFE Water Filter

Water Filter Cartridge

The water filter cartridge is located in the left-hand

refrigerator door behind the rectangular access panel.

When to Replace the Filter Cartridge

The Replace Filter message on the control panel

will illuminate when the water filter cartridge needs to

be replaced soon. The Filter Expired message will

illuminate when the water filter cartridge needs to be

replaced. The water filter can be replaced earlier if the

flow of water to the dispenser or icemaker decreases.

REMOVING THE FILTER

If you are replacing the filter,

first remove the previous one

by gently grasping the filter and

slowly turning it to the left,

about a ¼ turn. The filter

should automatically release

itself when you have rotated it

far enough to the left. A small

amount of water may drip

down.

CAUTION

If air has been trapped in the system, the filter cartridge

FILTER BYPASS PLUG

To reduce the risk of property damage due to water

replacement filter cartridge is not available. Some models

do not come equipped with the filter bypass plug. To obtain

a free bypass plug, call 800.GECARES and request

WR17X33825 filter bypass plug. In Canada, call

800.561.3344. The dispenser and icemaker will not operate

without either the filter or bypass plug installed. The bypass

plug is installed in the same way as a filter cartridge.

INSTALLING THE FILTER IN A BOTTOM

FREEZER REFRIGERATOR

1. Open the filter cartridge

housing by pulling the door

open.

2. Line up the ports on the filter

with the ports on the filter

cartridge holder, and gently

insert the filter.

6ORZO\WXUQWKHILOWHUWRWKHULJKWXQWLOLWVWRSV'2

NOT OVERTIGHTEN. As you turn the filter, it will

automatically adjust itself into position. The filter will

move about a ¼ turn or 90 degrees, until the filter

cannot be turned, and the label faces outward.

4. Slowly push the filter up into

the clips.

5. Close the filter cartridge

housing by gently pushing

the door closed until the tabs

lock into place.

6. Confirm that filter fault

condition is no longer present on the controls display.

7. Immediately after filter change, allow the pitcher to

autofill and empty pitcher into sink four times. This will

purge the new filter of normal black carbon dust that is

discharged during the initial use.

Application Guidelines/Water Supply

WARNING To reduce the risk associated with choking, do not allow children under 3 years of age to

have access to small parts during the installation of this product. The disposable filter cartridge should be

replaced every 6 months at the rated capacity, or sooner if a noticeable reduction in flow rate occurs.

USING THE FREEZER: Automatic Icemaker

Automatic Icemaker

A newly installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to

begin making ice.

Automatic Icemaker

The icemaker will produce seven cubes per cycle

(-10°C). A newly installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24

hours to begin making ice cubes.

If the refrigerator is operated before the water line

connection is made to the unit or if the water supply to

an operating refrigerator is turned off, make sure that

the icemaker is turned off. Once the water has been

connected to the refrigerator, the icemaker may be

turned on using the controls.

<RXPD\KHDUDEX]]LQJVRXQGHDFKWLPHWKHLFHPDNHU

fills with water.

Allow 1-2 days for the bucket to completly fill with ice.

Throw away the first few batches of ice to allow the

water line to clear.

Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep of the feeler

arm.

When the bin fills to the

level of the feeler arm,

the icemaker will stop

producing ice. It is normal

for several cubes to be

joined together.

If ice is not used

frequently, old ice cubes will become cloudy, taste stale

and shrink.

NOTE: In homes with lower-than-average water

pressure, you may hear the icemaker cycle multiple

times when making one batch of ice.

CAUTION 7RPLQLPL]HWKHULVNRISHUVRQDOLQMXU\

avoid contact with the moving parts of the ejector

mechanism, or with the heating element that releases

plugged in.

To turn the icemaker ON/OFF, press the Ice Maker

button on the top control panel.

WARNING Connect to potable water supply

only.

A cold water supply is required for automatic icemaker

operation. The water pressure must be between 40

and 120 psi (275-827 kilopascals).
