CHANGING THE WATER FILTER

WARNING
To reduce risk of water damage to your property
DO NOT use generic brands of water filters 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 filter.
SAMSUNG Refrigerators are designed to work
ONLY WITH SAMSUNG Water Filter.
The "Filter Indicator" red LED 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.
To make changing the water filter easier,
you may want to shut off the water supply,
and then drain any water remaining in the
water line by pressing a glass against the
water dispenser pad.
1. Remove the new water filter from its box and
put a month indicator sticker on the filter as
shown.
Place a sticker on the filter with a date six
months in the future.
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 old filter from the filter housing, and
then remove the new filter's protective cap.
3. Position the new filter, and then inset it into the
filter housing.
Slowly turn the water filter clockwise to align the
indicator mark on the filter with lock indicator
on the filter housing.
Make sure to align the water filter label
mark with the center of the lock indicator as
illustrated above, right.
Do not over-tighten.

4. Once you have completed this process,
hold the "Energy Saver" simultaneously for
3 seconds to reset the filter indicator.
5. Turn on the water supply if you turned it off.
6. Flush 3 gallons of water through filter
before drinking or using the water from the
refrigerator.
This should take about 6 minutes.
To flush, press the Water button, and then
press a large glass or cup against the water
dispenser lever.
Fill the glass, empty it into the kitchen sink after
it is filled, and then repeat.
Make sure that water flows clearly again before
drinking.
A newly installed water filter cartridge may
cause water to briefly spurt from the water
dispenser.
This is caused by air getting into the line.
It should pose no problem to operation.
