“The manual states that the water line must be turned off to change the filter. It seems unreasonable to have to pull the refrigerator out and turn off the water supply in order to change the filter. My current Jenn Air doesn't require it.”

Thanks so much for asking about this, Oldseabee1! While it is recommended to shut off the water supply, it is not required. Samsung recommends this because it will release the pressure behind the filter making it easier to remove and replace properly. However, removing the filter without shutting of the water supply should not cause any leaking, as the filter housing has an automatic valve that seals shut when the filter is removed. ^Jecca
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have no idea, BUT— consider it the opportunity to clean under the fridge twice a year! My last fridge died on my after 7 years and I was told not cleaning under there twice a year May have contributed to its untimely death
