4396701 Whirlpool / KitchenAid Refrigerator Ice & Water Filter

The Whirlpool / KitchenAid Refrigerator Ice & Water Filter 4396701 fits Whirlpool, KitchenAid, and Kenmore Top-Freezer and Bottom-Freezer refrigerators with a quarter-turn filter located in the grille at the bottom of the fridge.

Note: The 4396701 Filter is 1 3/8 inches in diameter and 9 1/2 inches long.

The 4396701 Filter replaces these older filter part numbers:

The 4396701 Filter removes the following impurities from your drinking water:

• 99.2% of Lead at pH 6.5
• 97.1% of Lead at pH 8.5
• 92.5% of Mercury at pH 6.5
• 91.9% of Mercury at pH 8.5
• 94.7% of Benzene
• 99.8% of P-Dichlorobenzene
• 75.0% of Chlorine
• 99.0% of Particulates (Class III)

As with all built-in refrigerator water filters, the 4396701 does not remove Fluoride

The 4396701 cartridge is tested and certified by NSF International to meet or exceed NSF/ANSI Standards 42 & 53

The Refrigerator Ice & Water Filter #4396701 should be replaced every 6 months or when the "change filter" light comes on - whichever comes first.

Installing your new water filter:

1. Twist the old filter a quarter-turn counterclockwise
2. Pull the filter straight out (don't worry, the water will shut off automatically)
3. Remove the reusable color-keyed knob from the end
4. Discard the old filter
5. Slide the knob onto the end of the new filter
6. Push the new filter into the fridge until it stops
7. Twist the filter a quarter-turn clockwise
8. Reset your "change filter" light (if your fridge has one)

Resetting your "change filter" light:

• Press the light switch (the one that the refrigerator door presses every time you close the door) 5 times within 10 seconds.

OR

• If the fridge has a filter button, press and hold it for 5-10 seconds.

There's nothing in the 4396701 filter that can go bad, so it has No Expiration Date... It can live on your shelf for years.

For that reason, it makes sense to Buy In Bulk... You pay less money per filter, and we pay for shipping!
