How long it lasts
Usually every 6 months. The filter light is a reminder, not a water-quality sensor.
After replacing: Hold Filter Reset for 3 seconds (general Samsung AU guidance; the HAFIN3 page itself does not describe the indicator).
Flow slows and taste drops off as the filter fills up. Changing on time is the whole point.

How to replace the HAFIN3/EXP water filter
Watch the guide or follow the steps.

- 2Turn the old filter a quarter turn anti-clockwise and pull it straight out. A little water may drip; keep a cloth handy.
- 3Take the caps off the new filter, push it into the housing and turn it clockwise until it stops.
- 4Run 4 litres of water through the dispenser to flush the carbon, then reset the filter light (hold the filter or reset button for 3 seconds).
