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

5. Lastly, run about six glassfuls of water through water dispenser to clean the water supply system. Make
sure that water flows cleanly again before drinking.

This means that there is still air in the line.
Do NOT use the water or ice dispenser without a water filter cartridge because the water line may become blocked.

CHANGING THE WATER FILTER
The “Filter” light lets you know when it is time to change your water filter cartridge. To give
you preparation time to get a new filter, the red light will come on just before the capacity of
the current filter runs out. Changing the filter on time provides you with the freshest, cleanest
water from your fridge.
