Holding new filter in your hands, carefully remove the packaging and sanitary end-cap from the new filter.
Insert the new filter into the refrigerator filter receptacle. With the handle in the vertical position, push the new filter into the housing until it stops. When inserting the new filter, twist the handle slightly left to right, while pushing inward.
