How long should my Samsung Fridge Filter last?

Samsung strongly recommends that fridge water filters be replaced every 6 months or when the "change filter" light comes on. However, if you notice the clarity or taste of your water changing, that's the best indication that it's time for a new filter! This ensures that your water remains fresh and your refrigerator's ice & water mechanisms are protected from corrosion.

Useful Tips for installation and re-setting the fridge after changeover:

Installing your new water filter:

• Open "flip-up" door
• Push filter cartridge straight in until you hear a "click" - this releases the latch and allows the filter to be removed
• Pull the filter straight out and discard (don't worry, the water will shut off automatically)
• Push the new filter straight into the fridge until it "clicks" into place
• Run the dispenser for 5 minutes to flush the system and purge all of the air from the new filter - then discard that water

Reset your "change filter" light (if your fridge has one). Resetting your "change filter" light:

Press and hold the reset button for 3 seconds - the light should turn green.
Note: If you hold these buttons for longer, you'll cancel the reset process, and you'll have to do it again. If this happens, just release the buttons and start over.
