Refrigerator – Replacing the Water Filter
It is recommended that you change the water filter in your refrigerator every six (6) months or after every 200 gallons of water that is discharged from it. If the flow of water to the icemaker or dispenser begins to slow, it is necessary to replace the filter on a more frequent basis. Important: When replacing the water filter, there is no need to switch off the water supply to the refrigerator. To remove and replace the MWF or XWF Filter Cartridge, follow these steps:
- Placing a piece of cloth beneath the old filter before removing it will capture any little drops of water that may fall when the filter is removed. Take hold of the filter and spin it to the left until it comes to a complete halt. While you are spinning the filter, carefully take it away from the filter head with your other hand. Maintain the filter’s level in order to reduce water leakage. If the filter does not come loose readily, it is possible that air has become trapped inside. Press down on the water dispenser and the filter should come straight out
- This will relieve any pressure. Remove the plastic cap from the new filter and toss it in the trash. Fill the top of the new filter with tap water to ensure that it is completely filled. Place the filter inside the cartridge holder by matching the arrow on the filter with the corresponding arrow on the cartridge holder (see illustration). If the cartridge holder does not have an arrow, simply ensure that the filter is pointing forward when the cartridge is placed. Push the filter slightly upward to contact the top of the cartridge in the filter head
- This will ensure that the filter is properly seated. Gradually move the filter to the right, until the filter cartridge comes to a complete stop. It will naturally rise into position as you spin the cartridge
- When the filter has been replaced, it is necessary to clear the system of any trapped air that has accumulated. To use the dispenser, choose Water from the dispenser option and push the pad until the water starts flowing. Due to the presence of air in the new filter, the first few ounces of water may splutter. This is quite normal. Water should be dispensed continuously for roughly 1-2 gallons in order to ensure that all air is removed from the system.
Installation Instructions:In order to make replacement instructions as accessible as possible, replacement instructions are frequently printed on the filter, on the package, or on an insert inside the filter packing. The instructions are also available on the internet. Beginning in mid-2016, the water filter label will provide instructions on how to change the filter. For more information about the filter and how to change it, see the following website:

- Models whose names begin with GDE21, GDE25, GFE24, GFE26, GNE21, GNE25
- Note: If an arrow does not appear on the graphics of the replacement filter, simply insert the filter vertically and rotate it from left to right to complete the installation. When you rotate it, you should be able to feel it lock in place.
To remove and replace the RPWFE Filter Cartridge, follow these steps: Instructions are printed on an insert that is supplied with the filter package. The position of the filter changes depending on the model type. It will be positioned either on the upper left-hand corner of the fresh food interior or within the left refrigerator door on the left side of the refrigerator interior. If you have a BLUE Filter Holder, the following steps must be followed:REMOVING THE FILTER CARTRIDGE:
- RPWFE Filter Cartridge Replacement and Removal Instructions: In the filter packaging, there is an insert that contains instructions. The position of the filter changes depending on the model. Depending on the fresh food interior, it will be situated either on the top left hand corner or within the left refrigerator door. When using a BLUE Filter Holder, the following steps must be followed:REMOVING THE FILTER CARTRIDGE
DELIVERY AND INSTALLATION OF THE FILTER CARTRIDGE:
- Make sure that the filter cartridge and the cartridge holder are aligned such that the word “FRONT” is visible at the top of the unit. Push the cartridge all the way to the back of the device until it is completely enclosed. The filter cartridge should be twisted one-quarter turn clockwise until the word ‘FRONT’ is facing outward
- While making sure the cartridge is firmly placed in the holder, gently swing the filter inward until it is in the desired position. If the filter will not swing freely, check to be that it is correctly aligned and fully inserted within the cartridge holder before proceeding. It is not necessary to have the RED indicators showing.
The filter cartridge should be aligned with the cartridge holder such that the word “FRONT” is facing up at the top of device. In order to completely seat the cartridge, it must be pushed toward the back of the device. The filter cartridge should be rotated one-quarter turn clockwise until the word ‘FRONT’ is facing outward; while making sure the cartridge is firmly installed in the holder, gently swing the filter inward until it is in the desired position. If the filter does not swing freely, check to be that it is correctly aligned and fully inserted within the cartridge holder before proceeding.
- Remove the old cartridge by opening the filter door and tugging on the bottom of the cartridge to allow it to swing outward, as shown in the illustration. When the cartridge is no longer able to swing freely, carefully pull it out of the cartridge holder until it comes loose. It is possible that a tiny amount of water will leak out
DELIVERY AND INSTALLATION OF THE FILTER CARTRIDGE:
- With the word ‘FRONT’ facing outward, center the cartridge in the cartridge holder so that it is in the center of the cartridge. Continue to push the cartridge inward until it is completely inserted. In order for the cartridge holder to be properly installed, the letter ‘FRONT’ must be centered on it. It is not necessary to see the RED lights
- Nevertheless, it is necessary to confirm that the cartridge is fully placed in the holder before gently swinging the filter into position. To determine if the filter will not swing freely, check to be that it is correctly aligned with and fully inserted within the cartridge holder.

Side-by- How to Change the Water Filter
Almost all Side-by-Side freezers manufactured nowadays are equipped with an inbuilt water filter. Ice cubes and drinking water are made using filtered water, and the same goes for the ice cubes.
The sort of water filter installed in your refrigerator varies depending on the model. The following section contains information on the many types of water filters, as well as how to change them. Cartridge for water filtration is located at:
- Side-by-side refrigerators with a water filter often have the water filter cartridge positioned in the rear, top right corner of the fresh food compartment
- However, this is not always the case. On Side-by-Side Built-In refrigerators, the water filter cartridge is normally situated below the top access panel above the refrigerator doors, above the refrigerator doors themselves. Consult your model’s owner’s handbook for precise information on where to find it. Alternatively, visit Bottom Freezer Refrigerator – How to Change the Water Filter and Top Freezer Refrigerator – How to Change the Water Filter for information on additional refrigerator kinds
When Should the Filter Be Replaced:
- The replacement indication light on your dispenser or temperature control panel will be present on the majority of models. Water filter replacement will be indicated by the illumination of this light
- The color of this light will vary depending on the model. You may get information about the replacement indicator light in your individual model by consulting the owner’s handbook
- For filters that do not have a replaceable indication light, we recommend that you change them every six months or if there is a reduction in the flow of water to the water dispenser or the icemaker, whichever comes first.
Water Filter Cartridge Removal: If you are changing the water filter cartridge, start by slowly twisting the old one to the left until it is completely removed. Do not pull the cartridge all the way down. It’s possible that a tiny amount of water will trickle down.

- The filter may be removed by turning it to the left approximately a 14 turn. When using versions without a replacement indication light, paste a month/year sticker on the filter or label the cartridge with the month/year it was placed to serve as a reminder when it is time to change it. Fill the new cartridge halfway with tap water to improve the flow of water from the dispenser once it has been replaced. Turn the filter slowly to the right until it comes to a complete halt. DO NOT TIGHTEN THE FILTER TOO MUCH. With each rotation of the cartridge, it will mechanically lift itself into position. The cartridge will travel approximately one-half revolution. Water should be dispensed from the dispenser for 3 minutes (about 12 gallons) to clean the system and prevent sputtering. Reset the filter indication light if necessary (on models with this feature). Press and hold the RESET WATER FILTER pad on the dispenser for 3 seconds, or until the light goes out or turns green, depending on your preference. If you do not keep your finger on the RESET pad for a long enough period of time, the light will remain on or remain red. If you keep your finger on the RESET pad for an extended period of time, the light will turn off and then back on. Please refer to your refrigerator’s owner’s handbook to find out how to reset it specifically. When a new water filter cartridge is fitted, it is possible for water to shoot out of the dispenser.
Using a 14-turn motion to the left, you may remove the filter. Install a month/year sticker on the filter or label the cartridge with the month/year it was placed to serve as a reminder to replace the filter for models without a replacement indicator light. Make sure to fill the new cartridge with tap water before replacing it to ensure that the dispenser continues to function properly after replacement. Gradually rotate the filter to the right until it comes to an abrupt halt DO NOT TIGHTEN THE FILTER OVERLY MUCH.

General Procedure for Replacing the Water Filter
With the exception of the RPWFE filter, installation is essentially the same for all GE water filters, despite the fact that the sizes of the various filters differ. However, if the filter is located within a refrigerator compartment, you should lay a towel under it before removing the old one in order to capture any leftover water that leaks out during the process. You may simply hold the filter and swivel it to the left to detach it from the mounting if it isn’t concealed by a door or other obstruction.
It’s a good idea to fill the replacement with tap water before installing it in order to flush out any trapped air and ensure immediate water flow.
As it clamps into place, it will elevate a little bit.
It’s necessary to pull the bottom of the filter toward you until it releases completely after opening the door. If you don’t, the filter will not release. Once the new filter has been installed, put the bottom of the enclosure into the enclosure and close the door.
Avoiding GE Refrigerator Water Filter Problems
If your refrigerator has a control panel, the water filter button will have an LED that will illuminate when the filter needs to be replaced. After changing the filter, press and hold this button for three seconds to force the filter sensor to be reset again. On a touch-screen refrigerator, pick Filter from the main menu and then hit Reset to restart the appliance. If your GE refrigerator water dispenser still does not function after changing the filter, it is most likely due to the filter not being correctly placed in the dispenser.
It’s likely that you didn’t go far enough with it.
Water may appear to be slightly discolored or to contain minute black particles at first, but this is not a cause for concern.

On August 27, 2018, a review was conducted in the United States.
I read another review that stated that your refrigerator would no longer allow water to flow or ice to be made once the filter has been depleted to 0 days of life left.
I got this straight replacement filter for my GE refrigerator (which we purchased in August 2018 and have had for a little over 6 months).
Although it is a convenient reminder tool, it does not take your water source into consideration.
In my instance, the water that goes into the appliance is filtered by a reverse osmosis system.
I’ll venture to say that my filter does not require replacement every six months.
Currently, we are receiving a notification from our refrigerator that we are fourteen days overdue for a refrigerator filter replacement.
From now on, I’m not going to pay attention to the warning on my refrigerator.
Number of Counts: 1 (Pack of 1) Water Filter in the following styles: Purchase that has been verified Ouch, that was a costly filter.
My recommendation is to purchase and replace less regularly.
Strike it hard with a sharp tool (such as an axe) and the plastic casing will split apart.
I discovered that the charcoal filter was clean, as was the white paper outer lining.
Replace once a year rather than every six months and you will save half the money.
On January 4, 2017, a review was conducted in the United States.
On June 16, 2018, a review was conducted in the United States.
They declined to publish it because it contained the following information: According to GE, the claim that these water filters — which are the most expensive water filters produced by the company — will last for six months is simply false advertising on their part.
A Billion-Dollar Investment in New York’s Water, published in the New York Times on January 18, 2018, describes the water being filtered as “some of the purest water in the United States.” Our wildly expensive GE Cafe line refrigerator has become an even more costly liability, that will now eat up upwards of $300 per year in water filters — not the $100 that GE claims.
Three months after purchasing the first two GE filters on Amazon, they both ceased operating – a full three months earlier than GE’s six-month warranty stated on the packaging.
Water now trickles out of the refrigerator’s in-door water dispenser.
Surprisingly, the GE water filter that came with the refrigerator did, in fact, endure the full six months recommended by the manufacturer’s user manual. I’m not sure what the problem is, but these replacement filters just do not perform as advertised.

How to Change Your Refrigerator’s Water Filter
When you use the water dispenser in your refrigerator, does it make a beeping sound? Is the flow of water slower than usual? Is the “Change Filter” light on your computer blinking continuously? That’s a telltale indicator! It’s time to replace the water filter in your refrigerator, which should be done every six months according to the manufacturer. They can be as expensive as $50, but that’s another tale (literally:How to Find a Cheap Replacement Water Filter for Your Fridge). Are you unsure whether or not your refrigerator includes a water filter?
Our technicians will assist you in locating the filter and replacing it in a couple of minutes.
Step 1: Find Your Fridge’s Water Filter
Look for the filter off to one side of the top fridge compartment or under the trim plate between the floor and the bottom of the fridge door—a favorite hiding location for Whirlpool side-by-side refrigerators—in the top refrigerator compartment. Depending on your appliance, it may also be hidden behind the service panel located at the top of the appliance. It’s an unusual feature on bottom-freezer models; there are only three models of that kind in our ratings that have water dispensers, and none of those models include water filtration systems.
Still can’t seem to locate it? Look for the model number and the word “manual” in the search results, and scan the pdf for the word “filter.”
Step 2: If There’s a Filter Cover, Remove It
Easy. Some are twist-offs, while others have tabs that you squeeze, and yet others include an eject button. However, it should be rather self-explanatory.
Step 3: Remove the Spent Filter
Depending on the make and type of your refrigerator, you may need to remove the old cartridge first by swinging it out of the slot. Then either pull it straight out of the housing or twist it counterclockwise and pull it straight out of the housing to remove it. In order to avoid making an educated guess, look at the packing of the new cartridge—you don’t want to run the danger of damaging one of the plastic components.
Step 4: Install the New Filter
After inserting the replacement filter into the housing, make sure it is secure in place. If you have to twist it to get it out of the way, you’ll have to twist it in the other direction to get it back in.
Step 5: Flush Out the Filter
Dispense approximately two gallons of water to flush the water line of any air or contaminants that have accumulated. Watering your plants with it is also an option. If your refrigerator has a filter change indication, make sure to reset it before using it. Refrigerators are available in five basic configurations: top-freezer, bottom-freezer, French-door, side-by-side, and built-in. Top-freezer, bottom-freezer, French-door, side-by-side, and built-in are the most common. Consumer Reports puts them through their paces.
Our testers are able to collect approximately five million temperature data for each model as a result of this.
