How to tell cubic feet of Kenmore refrigerator by model number?
For Kenmore refrigerator model 10673002511, the most reliable way to get cubic feet is to look up the capacity in the specifications section of the 10673002511 owner's manual. If you need a quick estimate, we can calculate it by measuring the usable interior space and converting cubic inches to cubic feet.
- Check the manual specs: Look for “capacity” or “cubic feet” in the product specifications section of the 10673002511 owner's manual.
- Measure and calculate (good estimate): Measure the usable interior height, width, and depth (in inches), then convert.
- Use model prefix clues carefully: Kenmore model prefixes (like 106) identify the manufacturing source family, but they do not reliably encode cubic feet.
- Empty the compartment enough to measure flat surfaces.
- Measure width x height x depth of the main refrigerator compartment in inches.
- Multiply those numbers to get cubic inches.
- Divide by 1,728 to convert to cubic feet.
- Use interior liner dimensions, not the outside cabinet.
- Subtract space taken by fixed features (air towers, ice box, control housings) for a closer “usable” number.
| What you have | What to do | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Interior inches (W x H x D) | Multiply | Cubic inches |
| Cubic inches | Divide by 1,728 | Cubic feet |
| Two compartments (fridge + freezer) | Calculate each, then add | Total capacity |
Cubic feet helps you compare storage space, choose the right refrigerator water filter, and set realistic expectations for airflow and temperature stability. If you are also replacing filtration parts, match by model to avoid fit issues (for example, Kenmore refrigerator water filter 9081).

How do I know which Kenmore refrigerator filter to buy?
For Kenmore refrigerator model 10673002511, the safest way to choose the correct filter is to match the filter part ID listed for your exact model and confirm the installation location shown in the owner's manual. On this model’s parts list, the compatible refrigerator water filter is Refrigerator water filter 9081.
- Match your refrigerator’s model number to 10673002511 (usually on an inside wall or ceiling of the fresh food compartment).
- Use the model-specific parts list and select the exact filter by part ID.
- If your dispenser flow is weak, replace the filter first; a clogged filter is a common cause.
- If you use reverse osmosis (RO), make sure your system can maintain adequate pressure; the manual notes RO setups can be affected by filtration and pressure.
- After installing a new filter, flush water through the dispenser to clear air and carbon fines.
| Filter type | What it does | When to replace |
|---|---|---|
| Refrigerator water filter 9081 | Improves taste and reduces contaminants in dispenser water and ice | About every 6 months (typical), or sooner if flow drops |
| Refrigerator air filter W10311524 | Helps reduce food odors inside the refrigerator | When the control indicates order/replace/expired (varies by use) |
Using the correct Kenmore water filter for model 10673002511 protects water flow to the dispenser and ice maker, helps maintain water taste, and prevents avoidable issues like slow dispensing or small ice cubes.

| System | What it affects | Example part for this model |
|---|---|---|
| Water filtration | Taste, flow, dispenser performance | Kenmore refrigerator water filter 9081 |
| Ice maker | Ice production and harvest | Refrigerator ice maker assembly 4317943 |
| Water supply | Filling ice maker, dispenser flow | Refrigerator water inlet valve WPW10279909 |
| Cooling airflow | Even temps in fresh food section | Refrigerator evaporator motor WPW10464673 |
When you shop for parts for Kenmore 10673002511, always match by model number first, then confirm the part ID.
- Use the exact model number 10673002511
- Match the part ID and part name (not just a photo)
- Replace filters on schedule to prevent low flow and ice issues
If you are replacing the water filter, our step-by-step guide can help: how to replace the water filter in a Kenmore refrigerator.
Using the correct Whirlpool-built Kenmore parts helps restore proper cooling, water dispensing, and ice production; it also reduces repeat failures caused by mismatched components.

Is there a reset button on a Kenmore refrigerator?
Most Kenmore refrigerators, including model 10673002511, do not use one universal “reset” button; resets are done by power-cycling the refrigerator or by resetting specific features from the control panel (for example, the air filter status). For exact button locations and sequences, use the 10673002511 owner's manual.
- Power-cycle reset (most common): unplug the refrigerator, wait about 5 seconds, then plug it back in.
- Control initialization reset: after plugging back in, wait 30 seconds before opening doors/drawers or touching the control panel.
- Exit Cooling Off or Showroom mode: if cooling is off, turn cooling back on using the controls (the refrigerator will not cool in these modes).
- Door-open alarm reset: close both doors fully; the alarm feature resets after the doors are closed.
If the air filter indicator shows Replace Filter or the icon is lit/flashing, we reset that status after replacing the filter:
- Replace the air filter.
- Press and hold AIR FILTER for 3 seconds to reset the air filter status back to “Good.”
If you need the replacement filter for this model, use the refrigerator air filter W10311524.
A reset helps with control glitches, but it will not fix a failed part. Check these basics first:
- Confirm the power cord is fully plugged into a grounded outlet.
- Check the home breaker or fuse.
- Make sure cooling is turned on (not Cooling Off or Showroom mode).
- Close doors and drawers completely (open doors can trigger alarms and affect cooling).
- After a new install or long power loss, allow 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize.
| Reset method | What it clears | When to use it |
|---|---|---|
| Unplug 5 seconds, then wait 30 seconds | Control initialization issues | Unresponsive controls, odd display behavior |
| Hold AIR FILTER 3 seconds | Air filter status indicator | After replacing the air filter |
| Close doors fully | Door Open alarm cycle | Alarm sounding or Door Open icon flashing |
Using the correct reset prevents unnecessary part replacement and helps the electronic control board reinitialize properly. If cooling is off due to a mode setting, no amount of temperature adjustment will make the refrigerator cool faster.
