Order a replacement cartridge and fit it once the countdown reaches zero days. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### Can this message be left alone for a while once it appears? For a short time, yes, since it shows with about 30 percent of the filter's capacity still remaining, but a change is due once the countdown reaches zero days. ### My Fulgor Milano column has never shown this message. Could the filter still be old? Yes, the reminder only runs once switched on under Functions, Water Filter; if it was never activated, the filter's age should be checked against the install date instead. ### Is anything else needed after fitting a new filter? Fulgor Milano recommends a Manual Clean afterward with the ice maker off first, and to empty water from the ice bin when prompted before the machine restarts. --- **[Read on the site: Fulgor Milano freezer column: Replace filter message](https://appliancemaintenance.center/error-codes/fulgor-milano-freezer-replace-filter/)** **[Book a visit with ApplianceMaintenance.center](https://appliancemaintenance.center/schedule/)**
