BRF365200AP/AA specifics — where the filter actually lives
Finding the bay is the easy part — this chassis puts it in the fresh-food compartment — exact spot varies by dispenser layout, a deliberate placement that keeps the swap away from the door seals and drawer rails. The seat is a push-fit design: seat the cartridge square to the header until it clicks, and the retention clips do the rest.
Order-day practicalities: a first removal that fights a set o-ring, and a status light that needs a manual hold-to-reset before it acknowledges the new cartridge. Whatever the badge on the door says, the parts reality is the DA9717376B line — which is why fit listings key on chassis rather than door style. The AA ending is a finish code — color and handle options, not mechanical ones. Every finish of this chassis takes the same cartridge.
Reading the BRF365200AP/AA model code — what the digits tell you
Capacity check: the 36 cu ft in the code is the box size, and bigger boxes push more water through the same cartridge between swaps. Hold this constant while shopping: the BRF365200AP/AA family shares one water path, so the DA9717376B cartridge fits the entire run.
Swap it in 5 minutes
- Pull the old cartridge straight out of the header — expect a small spill, not a flood.
- Align the new cartridge with the keyed slot; it only goes in one orientation.
- Push the cartridge home until the retention latch clicks.
- Run two gallons through the dispenser to flush carbon fines, then hold the filter-reset control until the status light clears.

BRF365200AP/AA filter questions
Reset procedure for the change-filter alert on the BRF365200AP/AA?
Hold the filter-reset control a few seconds after seating the new cartridge; placements vary by control panel, and the BRF365200AP/AA manual’s filter-status page has the exact spot.
Does the Samsung BRF365200AP/AA need a bypass plug when the filter is out?
No cap needed — the DA9717376B bay passes water unfiltered while empty; it does not leak, it just skips filtration.
Are off-brand filters safe for a Samsung refrigerator?
Certified aftermarket cartridges are built to the same NSF test standards as the OEM part, and federal warranty law (Magnuson-Moss) protects your coverage when you use them.
Why is the OEM DA9717376B cartridge so much more expensive?
Part of the OEM price is the badge and the distribution chain. Certified alternatives meet the same test standards at a lower unit price, especially in multi-packs.
How often should I replace the filter in my BRF365200AP/AA?
Every six months or at the rated gallon capacity, whichever comes first — the DA9717376B class cartridges all share that service interval.
Do I need to turn off the water supply to change it?
No — the bay is designed for a live swap. Expect a small dribble, keep a towel in reach, and flush a couple of gallons through the new cartridge before the first glass.
