Installation Steps
Step 1: The water supply to the refrigerator filter should be disabled. This can be accomplished via the main shutoff valve or by detaching the water line from the inlet valve on the refrigerator.
Step 2: The old filter should be taken out. The filter housing should be unscrewed from the inlet valve. If resistance is encountered when unscrewing, a pair of pliers may be utilized to break the seal. It is advisable that safety goggles be worn if a tool is required for loosening it.
Step 3: The new filter should be placed. After the old filter is removed, the new filter should be positioned into the filter housing and the housing should be reattached. It should ensure that overtightening is not done, as this could harm the threads.
Step 4: The water supply should be reactivated. Finally, the water supply should be turned back on and 3 minutes should be waited for the water lines to fill and eliminate any air bubbles. Any leaks around the filter housing should be inspected and the connection should be tightened if needed.
Please note that these instructions serve as general guidance and should always be utilized alongside the manufacturer's manual, if available.
