About the Kenmore® 46-9970 water filter cartridge

Water filter cartridge

The water filter cartridge is located in the back upper right corner of the refrigerator compartment.

When to replace the filter on models with a replacement indicator light

There is a replacement indicator light for the water filter cartridge on the dispenser. This light will turn orange to tell you that you need to replace the filter soon.

The filter cartridge should be replaced when the replacement indicator light turns red or if the flow of water to the dispenser or icemaker decreases.

When to replace the filter on models without a replacement indicator light

The filter cartridge should be replaced every six months or earlier if the flow of water to the dispenser or icemaker decreases.

Removing the filter cartridge

If you are replacing the cartridge, first remove the old one by slowly turning it to the left. Do not pull down on the cartridge. A small amount of water may drip down.

CAUTION: To reduce the risk associated with property damage due to water leakage, read and follow instructions before installation and use of this system. Installation and use MUST comply with all state and local plumbing codes.

Installing the filter cartridge

1 Fill the replacement cartridge with water from the tap to allow for better flow from the dispenser immediately after installation.
2 Line up the arrow on the cartridge and the cartridge holder. Place the top of the new cartridge up inside the holder. Do not push it up into the holder.
3 Slowly turn it to the right until the filter cartridge stops. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. As you turn the cartridge, it will automatically raise itself into position. The cartridge will move about a 12 turn.
4 Run water from the dispenser for 1-1/2 gallons (about three minutes) to clear the system and prevent sputtering.
5 Press and hold the RESET WATER FILTER pad (on some models) on the dispenser for three seconds.

NOTE: A newly installed water filter cartridge may cause water to spurt from the dispenser.

Filter bypass plug

You must use the filter bypass plug when a replacement filter cartridge is not available. The dispenser and the icemaker will not operate without the filter or filter bypass plug.

Filter Bypass Plug SmartWater Filter Bypass Plug Water by Culligan

To use the filter bypass plug on Water by Culligan™ models, you must first remove the filter adaptor from the cartridge holder by turning it to the left.

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.

WARNING

To reduce the risk associated with ingestion of contaminants:

- Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before and after the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction may be used on disinfected water that may contain filterable cysts. EPA Establishment Number 10350-MN-005.

For conditions of use, health claims certified by the California Department of Public Health, and replacements, see performance data sheet. California Department of Public Health Certification #05-1698. The contaminants or other substances removed or reduced by this water filter are not necessarily in all users' water.

NOTICE

To reduce the risk associated with property damage due to water leakage:

• Read and follow use instructions before installation and use of this system.
  • Installation and use MUST comply with all state and local plumbing codes.
• Do not install if water pressure exceeds 120 psi (8.2 bar). If your water pressure exceeds 80 psi, you must install a pressure-limiting valve. Contact a plumbing professional if you are uncertain how to check your water pressure.
• Do not install where water hammer conditions may occur. If water hammer conditions exist you must install a water hammer arrester. Contact a plumbing professional if you are uncertain how to check for this condition.
• Do not install on hot water supply lines. The maximum operating water temperature of this filter system is 100^ (38°C).
• Protect filter from freezing. Drain filter when temperatures drop below 33°F (0.6°C).
• The disposable filter cartridge must be replaced every 6 months at the rated capacity, or sooner if a noticeable reduction in flow rate occurs.

Tested and certified by NSF International against NSF/ANSI Standard 42 and Standard S3 in model GE FLWF for the reduction of the claims specified on the performance data sheet.
