• Disconnect power and shut off water supply before servicing the filter area
• Remove the old latch per your model's service instructions; small hand tools may be needed
• Inspect surrounding housing for damage; replace housing if cracked or warped
• Do not force or overtighten; seat the latch so the filter seals correctly
