GETTING READY TO INSTALL THE REFRIGERATOR

Congratulations on your purchase of the Samsung French Door Refrigerator. We hope you enjoy the state-of-art

features and efficiencies that this new appliance offers.

Selecting the best location for the Refrigerator

• A location with easy access to the water supply.

• A location without direct exposure to sunlight.
A location with level (or nearly level) flooring.
A location with enough space for the Refrigerator doors to open easily.
Allow sufficient space for air circulation of the internal cooling system.

If the Refrigerator does not have enough space, the internal cooling
system may not work properly.

If your refrigerator has an ice maker, allow extra space at the back for the water line connections. When you install
the refrigerator next to a fixed wall, minimum clearance is 3 3A" (95mm) between the refrigerator and wall to allow
the door to swing open.

First thing! Make sure that you can easily move your Refrigerator to its final location by measuring doorways

(both width and height), thresholds, ceilings, stairways, etc.

CHECKING THE WATER DISPENSER LINE

A water dispenser is one of the helpful features on your new Samsung Refrigerator. To help promote better

health, the Samsung water filter removes unwanted particles from your water. However, it does not sterilize or
destroy microorganisms. You may need to purchase a water purifying system to do that.

In order for the ice maker to operate properly, a water pressure of 20-125 psi (pound per square inch) is
required.

Under normal conditions, a 170 cc (5.75 oz.) paper cup can be filled in 10 seconds.
If the Refrigerator is installed in an area with low water pressure (below 20psi), you can install a booster pump to

compensate for the low pressure.
Make sure the water storage tank inside the Refrigerator is properly filled. To do this, press the water dispenser

lever until the water runs from the water outlet.

_ Water line installation kits are available at extra cost from your dealer. We recommend using a water supply kit that

contains copper tubing.

Connecting to the water supply line

1. First, shut off the main water supply line and turn the ice-maker off.

2. Locate the nearest cold, drinking water line.

3. After connecting the water supply to the water filter, turn your main water supply back on and flush four
or more gallons into a bucket to clear and prime the water filter.

3. Tighten the compression nut (_ onto the compression fitting. Do not over-tighten the compression nut (_.

4. Turn water on and check for any leakage.
[_} Only connect the water line to a drinkable water source.

If you have to repair or disassemble the water line, cut off 1/4" of the plastic tubing to make sure you get a snug,
leak-free connection.

Installing the water filter.

1. Remove the water filter cover((_)

2. Remove the fixed cap by turning it counter clockwise.

Keep the cap in a safe place for later use if you don't
use the filter.

3. Remove the water filter from the box and put a

replacement indicator sticker on the filter as shown.
Place a sticker on the filter that dates six months in

the future. For example, if you install the water filter in
March, put the "SEP" sticker on the filter to remind you
to replace it in September. That way you'll know when
it is time to replace the filter. Normally, a filter life is

about 6 months.

.....Separation

of red cap,

(_You should remove the right side upper glass shelf before installing water filters.

Removing any residual matter inside the water supply line after
installing the water filter.

1. Turn ON the main water supply & turn OFF the valve to the water supply line.

2. Run water through the dispenser until the water runs clear (approx. 6-7
minutes). This will clean the water supply system and remove air from the lines.

3. Additional flushing may be required in some households.

4. Open the Refrigerator door and make sure there are no water leaks coming

from the water filter.

Turn until the

labels are aligned,

®

Be sure to flush the dispenser thoroughly, otherwise water may drip from the dispenser.

This means that there is still air in the line.

Reverse Osmosis Water Supply

IMPORTANT • The pressure of the water supply coming out of a reverse osmosis system going to the

water inlet valve of the refrigerator needs to be between 35 and 120 psi (241 and 827 kPa).

If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is connected to your cold water supply, the water pressure to

the reverse osmosis system needs to be a minimum of 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa.)

If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less than 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa):
,, Check to see whether the sediment filter in the reverse osmosis system is blocked. Replace the filter if

necessary.
,, Allow the storage tank on the reverse osmosis system to refill after heavy usage.
,, Ifyour refrigerator has a water filter, it may further reduce the water pressure when used in conjunction

with a reverse osmosis system. Remove the water filter.
If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed, qualified plumber.

The Refrigerator temperature can be set between 46°F and 34°F as your particular needs. Press the

Fridge button repeatedly until the desired temperature is shown in the temperature display.

The temperature control process for the Fridge works just like the Freezer process.

Press the Fridge button to set your desired temperature. After a few seconds, the Fridge will begin
adjusting towards the newly set temperature. This will be reflected in the digital display.

_The temperature of the Freezer or the Refrigerator may rise when you open the doors too frequently, or if a

large amount of warm or hot food is placed in either side.
This may cause the digital display to blink. Once the Freezer and Refrigerator temperature return to their

normal set temperatures, the blinking will stop.

Ifthe blinking continues, you may need to "reset" the Refrigerator. Try unplugging the appliance, wait for

around 10 minutes and then plug the power cord back in.

Water clouding phenomenon

®

All water provided to refrigerators flows through the core filter which isan alkaline water filter. In this process,
the pressure in the water that has flowed out of the filter gets increased, and oxygen and nitrogen become
saturated. When this water flows out inthe air, the pressure plummets and the oxygen and nitrogen get
supersaturated so that they turn into gas bubbles. The water could look misty due to these oxygen bubbles.
The water may look temporarily cloudy due to these oxygen bubbles. After a few seconds, the water will

look clear.

Normal Use

To fill ice bucket to maximum capacity after installation, make sure to do the
following steps.

1, Allow your refrigerator to operate and cool down for 24 hours (or 1 full day).

2. Waiting 24 hours will allow your ice maker to cool properly.

3. Dispense 4 to 6 ice cubes into the glass.

4. After 8 and 16 hours, dispense a full glass of ice at each time.

Whenever all ice is used at one time, the above step 3 and 4 must be repeated (before dispense the
first 4 to 6 ice cubes, it needs waiting 8 hours). This will replenish the ice cubes and ensure maximum

ice production.
