# Monogram column showing FILTER EXPIRED

After ORDER WATER FILTER, a Monogram column switches to FILTER EXPIRED once the cartridge reaches 100 percent of its life.

## What FILTER EXPIRED actually means.

After ORDER WATER FILTER, a Monogram column switches to FILTER EXPIRED once the cartridge reaches 100 percent of its life. The ice maker in a freezer column keeps using the old cartridge until it is replaced or the bypass plug is fitted.

What to do when FILTER EXPIRED shows on the ice maker

### Kind of code Water supply and fill

The ice maker asked for water and got too little, too slowly or none at all, or water kept arriving after the fill should have ended. A closed shutoff, a kinked line, a clogged filter and low house pressure are ruled out before the water inlet valve is replaced or the fill tube is thawed. If water is on the floor, close the supply valve before reading anything on the display.

### Usually leads to Ice maker water inlet valve repair

The electric valve that lets water into the ice maker, tested and replaced when it will not open, opens only partway, or keeps dripping after it should have closed.

### Shows up as Ice Tastes or Smells Bad

The ice tastes bad or smells stale, musty, of plastic or of whatever else is in the freezer, even though a glass of tap water tastes fine.

## Questions about FILTER EXPIRED.

### Can I clear FILTER EXPIRED myself?

Replace the cartridge, turning the old one a quarter turn counterclockwise to remove it. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Why is the first bin of ice odd after a filter change on a Monogram freezer column?

Air trapped in the system spurts water into the ice maker; the manual says the first bin may be misshapen or discolored and should be discarded.

### Can a Monogram freezer column make ice without a filter?

Only with the bypass plug installed. The icemaker will not operate without either the filter or the plug.

### What if FILTER EXPIRED stays after the new filter on my Monogram?

Hold the + key for three seconds to reset. If the message still shows, book a visit.
