1. Take a new water fi lter and put a month indicator sticker on the fi lter as shown.
The date on the sticker must be six months from the current date. For example, if you are replacing
the water fi lter in March, put the “SEP” (September) sticker on the fi lter to remind you to replace in
September. Normal fi lter life is about every 6 months.
2. Remove the new lter’s protective cap and remove the old lter.
3. Position and insert the new fi lter into the fi lter housing.
Slowly turn the water fi lter clockwise to align with the printing mark on the cover, locking the fi lter
in position. Make sure to align the water fi lter label mark with the center of cover fi lter printing as
illustrated. Remember, do not over-tighten.
4. Once you have completed this process, press and hold the Alram button for 3 seconds to reset the
fi lter schedule.
Ordering Replacement Water Filter
For replacement water fi lter you can visit your local service center or contact the Samsung Parts
distributor.

5. Lastly,Flush 3 gallons through lter before use (fl ush approximately 6 minutes) Make sure that water
fl ows clearly again before drinking.
Be sure to fl ush the dispenser thoroughly otherwise water may drip from the dispenser.
This means that there is still air in the line.
Do NOT use the water or ice dispenser without a water fi lter cartridge because the water line may become
blocked.
Turn until the
label aligned.

CHANGING THE WATER FILTER
The “Filter Indicator” light lets you know when it is time to change your water fi lter cartridge. To give you
preparation time to get a new fi lter, the red light will come 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 fridge.

This system has been tested according to NSF/ANSI Standards 42 and 53 for the reduction of the substances listed
below. The concentration of the indicated substances in water entering the system was reduced to a concentration less
than or equal to the permissible limit for water leaving the system, as specifi ed in NSF/ANSI 42 and 53.
To a capacity of 300 gallons (1,136 liters).
Note that while the testing was performed under standard laboratory conditions, actual performance may vary.
System tested and certifi ed by NSF International against NSF/ANSI Standard 42 for
the reduction of Chlorine Taste and Odor, Particulate Class I, and against NSF/ANSI
Standard 53 for the reduction of Cysts, Turbidity, Lead, Asbestos, Benzene, Carbofuran,
p-Dichlorobenzene and Mercury.
