Hi Mike,

It is very strange but it's not shown at the breakdown diagrams too. According to the Owners manual (page 7) the water filter, as always, should be in the back upper right corner of the fresh food compartment. If it's not there, I'm speechless.

- The GE Smartwater filter Part number: MWF
Part number: MWF

No Mike. I don't think it's a good idea. You definitely can instal an in-line water filter, but it should be in the water supply line, before the water inlet valve.

I would call GE in such situation because this is their defect and they should take care of it.
