Certification evidence
Standards are reported for this filter family with the evidence status shown.
A standard is a testing framework, not a promise that every possible contaminant claim applies. Check the exact model and named reduction claim.
Selected reduction claims
This is not a complete performance sheet. It is a source-linked set of claims captured for comparison.
| Claim | Published value | Evidence basis | Source |

Install, flush and reset
The appliance manual remains authoritative when model-specific instructions differ.
- 01
Shut off the refrigerator water supply if the exact manual requires it.
- 02
Turn the installed HAF-QIN cartridge counterclockwise to remove it.
- 03
Insert the new cartridge and turn it clockwise until fully seated.
- 04
Dispense the manufacturer-recommended amount of water, then reset the filter indicator.
Flush
Samsung instructs users to dispense several gallons after replacement. Use the exact refrigerator manual for the model-specific amount.
Indicator reset
Reset procedures vary by appliance model. Use the refrigerator control-panel instructions rather than a generic button sequence.
Before you buy
A compact check designed to catch the expensive mistakes.
- Match the complete refrigerator model number, including suffix characters.
- Match the canonical part number or an explicitly listed superseded number.
- Review the exact performance data sheet for the contaminants that matter to your household.
- Check package condition and seller identity before installation.
Research note: Certification to a standard does not mean every claim in that standard applies. Only exact-model claims should be relied on.
