Rachel has cross-referenced every Kenmore 9690 / 46-9690 application against the LG refrigerator database to confirm the underlying LG filter required — LT1000P or LT700P — based on production year.

The Kenmore 9690 (also listed as 46-9690) is the Kenmore retail part number for the LG water filter used in Kenmore refrigerators built by LG — identified by model numbers beginning with 795.
Kenmore does not manufacture refrigerators. When Kenmore sells an LG-built refrigerator under the Kenmore name, the water filter is mechanically identical to an LG filter — just given a Kenmore cross-reference number. The Kenmore 9690 refers to either the LG LT1000P (for 795.xxxxx models made from 2018 onwards) or the LG LT700P (for 795.xxxxx models from 2014–2018), depending on when your fridge was manufactured.

📋 What to Look For on Your Kenmore Model Number Sticker
Open the refrigerator and check the sticker inside the left door frame. The model number begins with three digits followed by a period. 795. = LG-built → use Kenmore 9690 / LG LT1000P (2018+) or LG LT700P (2014–2018). The sticker also shows the serial number and production date — photograph it now for your records so you never have to open the fridge just to check the model number again.
💡 Key Facts

⚠️ The Fastest Way to Confirm Your Exact Filter
Open your Kenmore refrigerator and look at the label on your currently installed filter. The LG part number will be printed on it (ADQ74793501 = LT1000P, ADQ36006101/02 = LT700P). This is more reliable than looking up by year alone, as some Kenmore model lines bridged filter generations within the same year.
