Water lter (applicable models only)
WARNING
• Do not use third-party water lters. Use only Samsung-provided or -approved lters.
• Unapproved lters may leak and damage the refrigerator, causing electric shock.
Samsung is not responsible for any damage that may occur from use of third-party
water lters.
The Filter Reset indicator ( ) turns red to let you know it is time to replace the water
lter. Before replacing the lter, make sure the water supply line is shut off.
1. Shut off the water supply line.
2. Turn the knob of the lter cartridge
90 degrees counterclockwise (1/4 turn).
The lter cartridge unlocks.
3. Pull out to remove the cartridge.
- If the water lter is severely
contaminated, the cartridge may not
be easy to remove. If that is the case,
use force to remove the cartridge.
- To prevent water leaks from the lter
opening, pull the cartridge straight
out while removing it.
4. Insert a new lter cartridge. Use only
Samsung-provided or approved lters.
5. Turn the cartridge knob clockwise to
lock into place.
6. Press and hold Ice Maker on the main
panel for 3 seconds to reset the life
cycle detector. The Filter Reset indicator
( ) turns off.
7. When you are done replacing the lter,
open the water valve and run water
through the dispenser for about 7
minutes. This is to remove impurities
and air from the water line.
NOTE
• A newly installed lter may cause the water dispenser to spurt water briey. This is
because air has entered the waterline.
• The replacement process may cause the water dispenser to drip for a short period of
time. If it drips, simply wipe up any water on the oor with a dry towel.
