TROUBLESHOOTING STORAGE AND MAINTENANCE

PROBLEM

My refrigerator is not dispensing water

My water dispenser is dripping

My water is cloudy or contains black carbon pieces

My new lter is making noises or sputtering

My water tastes bad

SOLUTION

• Make sure that you soaked your lter in water for 15 minutes before installing.

• Make sure that the lter is securely connected to the receiver. Do not use tools to tighten the lter in place.

• Make sure that the water line to the refrigerator is turned on. The valve must be completely open for the refrigerator to receive water.

• Make sure that the refrigerator door is closed or the dispenser will not work.

• A few drops are normal. If the water is dripping constantly, have a service technician check your refrigerator’s water valve.

• Cloudy water is caused by microscopic air bubbles. Run two to three gallons of water from your dispenser to clear the air bubbles out.

• Black carbon pieces in the water are normal and appear with all carbon lters. Run two to three gallons of water through your dispenser to remove loose carbon pieces.

• Make sure that you soaked your lter in water for 15 minutes before installing.

• Noises and sputtering are caused by trapped air pockets. Run two to three gallons of water from your dispenser to push the air out.

• If you do not use your water dispenser for more than four days, run two gallons of water through the dispenser before using it.

• Make sure that you replace your lter every three to six months to prevent bacteria growth.

• Replace your lter every three to six months to prevent bacteria and fungus growth in your lter, supply lines, and storage tank.

• Stored lters do not expire. Keep your unused lters in a cool, dark, and dry place until you need them.

• If you do not use your water dispenser for more than four days, run two gallons of water before using it to prevent bad tasting water.
