Water fi lter usage
This icon lights up when you need
to change the fi lter, usually after the
refrigerator has dispensed about 300
gallons of water (after about 6 months).
After you install the new water fi lter, reset
the fi lter indicator by touching and holding
the Hold 3sec for Filter Reset button for
3 seconds.
- If water is not dispensing or
dispensing slowly, you need to
replace the water fi lter because
the water fi lter is clogged.
- Some areas have large amounts
of lime in their water, which
causes the water fi lter to clog
more quickly.
CHANGING THE WATER
FILTER
To reduce the risk of water damage
to your property DO NOT use generic
brands of water fi lters in your SAMSUNG
Refrigerator.
USE ONLY SAMSUNG BRAND
WATER FILTERS. SAMSUNG is not
legally responsible for any damage,
including, but not limited to, property
damage caused by water leakage
from the use of a generic water fi lter.
SAMSUNG Refrigerators are designed to work
ONLY WITH SAMSUNG Water Filters.
The Filter light turns red to let you know when it is
time to change your water fi lter cartridge.
To give you time to get a new fi lter, the red light
comes on just before the capacity of the current
fi lter runs out. Changing the fi lter on time provides
you with the freshest, cleanest water from your
refrigerator.
WARNING
To change the water fi lter, follow these steps:
1. Shut off the water supply. Then, turn the water
fi lter (1) about 1/4 turn, counter-clockwise.

2. Pull the water fi lter (1) from the case fi lter (2).
• To change the water fi lter more easily,
shut off the water supply valve.
• Sometimes, it is hard to disassemble the water
fi lter because impurities in the water cause it
to stick. If you are having diffi culties, grip the
water fi lter fi rmly and pull it hard.
• When you pull the water fi lter, a little water
can leak from the opening. This is normal.
To minimize the water leaks, keep the fi lter
cartridge horizontal when you pull it.
• To prevent overfl ow,
empty the water
fi lter tray (3) and
dry around the fi lter
case (2).
3. Insert the new fi lter into the fi lter case (4).
4. Push the fi lter, and then turn it clockwise until
it locks.
• If you have trouble inserting the water
fi lter because of high water pressure,
shut off the water supply valve.
• The locked symbol should be lined up
with the indicator line.
