ADDITIONAL TIPS FOR
PROPER USAGE
• In the event of a power failure, call the local
office of your Electricity Company and ask how
long it is going to last.
- Most power failures that are corrected in an
hour or two will not affect your refrigerator
temperatures. However, you should minimize
the number of door openings while the power
is off.
- Should the power failure last more than 24
hours, remove and discard all frozen food.
• The appliance might not operate consistently
(frozen contents can thaw or temperatures
can become too warm in the frozen food
compartment) when sited for an extended
period of time in a location where ambient
air temperatures are constantly below the
temperatures for which the appliance is
designed.
• In case of particular foods, keeping it under
refrigeration can have a bad effect on
preservation due to its properties.
• Your appliance is frost free, which means there
is no need to manually defrost your appliance.
This will be carried out automatically.
• Temperature rise during defrosting complies
with ISO requirements.
But If you want to prevent an undue rise in the
temperature of frozen food while the appliance
defrosts, wrap the frozen food in several layers
of newspaper.
• Do not re-freeze frozen foods that have thawed
completely.
Saving Energy Tips
- Install the appliance in a cool, dry room with
adequate ventilation.
Ensure that it is not exposed to direct sunlight
and never put it near a direct source of heat (a
radiator, for example).
- Not to block any vents and grilles is
recommended for energy efficiency.
- Allow warm food to cool down before placing it
in the appliance.
- Put frozen food in the refrigerator to thaw.
You can then use the low temperatures of the
frozen products to cool food in the refrigerator.
- Do not keep the door of the appliance open for
too long when putting food in or taking food
out.
The shorter the time the door is open, the less
frost build-up you’ll have in the freezer.
- It is recommended to install the refrigerator with
clearance to the back and sides.
This will help reduce power consumption and
keep your energy bills lower.

LEVELING THE REFRIGERATOR
Make sure the refrigerator is level so that you can
make final adjustments.
Use a level to test if the refrigerator is level both
side to side and back to front.
If the refrigerator is not level, you will not be able
to get the doors perfectly even, which may cause
moisture condensation and increased energy bills.
Below is an example of how to level the refrigerator
if the left side of the refrigerator is lower than the
right side.
How to adjust the level
1. Open the freezer drawer and remove the lower
basket.
2. Insert a flat-blade screwdriver (-) into a notch on
the left control lever, and then turn it counterclockwise to level the refrigerator.
(You turn the lever clockwise to lower the
refrigerator and counterclockwise to raise it.)
CAUTION
The refrigerator on an uneven floor may tilt.
To prevent this, adjust the leg so that it contacts
the floor.
If the right side is lower, perform the same
procedure, but with the right control lever.
It is difficult to remove the cover leg
front from the refrigerator, so we do not
recommend making small adjustments
with the control lever.
Instead, refer to the next page for the best
way to make minor adjustments to the
doors.

INSTALLING THE WATER
DISPENSER LINE
A water dispenser with a filter is one of the helpful
features on your new refrigerator.
To help promote better health, the water filter
removes unwanted particles from your water.
However, it does not sterilize the water or destroy
microorganisms. You may need to purchase a
water purifying system to do that.
The water line also connects to the ice maker.
For the ice maker to operate properly, water
pressure of 20 ~ 125psi (138 ~ 862kPa) is
required.
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.
After you have connected the water line, 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 line
installation kit that contains copper tubing
and a ¼” compression nut.
3. Connect the water line installation kit to the
shut off valve.

CHANGING THE WATER FILTER
WARNING
To reduce risk of water damage to your property
DO NOT use generic brands of water filters in your
SAMSUNG Refrigerator.
USE ONLY SAMSUNG BRAND
WATER FILTERS. SAMSUNG is not
legally responsible for any damage,
including, but not limited to, property
damage caused by water leakage
from the use of a generic water filter.
SAMSUNG Refrigerators are designed to work
ONLY WITH SAMSUNG Water Filters.
The Filter light turns red to let you know when it is
time to change your water filter cartridge.
To give you time to get a new filter, the red light
comes on just before the capacity of the current
filter runs out.
Changing the filter on time provides you with the
freshest, cleanest water from your refrigerator.
1. Shut off the water supply. Then, turn the water
filter (1) about 1/4 turn, counter-clockwise.
2. Pull the water filter (1) from the case filter (2).
(Red)

Removing any residual matter inside the
water supply line after installing the water
filter.
1. Turn ON the water supply if you turned it off
when you installed the water filter.
2. Run water through the dispenser until the water
runs clear (approx. 6 to 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.
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 120psi. (241 and 827kPa)
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 60psi. (276 to 414kPa)
If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis
system is less than 40 to 60psi (276 to 414kPa):
• Check if 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.
• If your 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.

Ice Making
To fill the ice bucket to maximum capacity after
installation, follow these steps:
1. Allow your refrigerator to operate and cool
down for 24 hours (or 1 full day).
- Waiting 24 hours will allow your ice maker to
cool properly.
2. Dispense 4 to 6 ice cubes into a glass.
3. After 8, and then 16 hours, dispense a full glass
of ice.
CAUTION
• To clean the ice bin/bucket, wash with a mild
detergent, rinse well, and then dry it thoroughly.
Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners or
solvents.
• When you select Cubed Ice after using the
Crushed Ice mode, a small amount of residual
crushed ice might be produced.
If There is a Power Failure
If a power failure occurs, ice cubes may melt,
and then freeze together when the power comes
back on, preventing the dispenser from working
properly.
To prevent this problem, after a power failure, pull
out the ice bucket and discard the residual ice or
water.
After you dump the ice from the ice bucket, you
should press the dispenser lever once with the
‘Water’ or ‘Ice Type’ function ON.
The ice maker will make new ice faster after you
return the ice bucket to the refrigerator.
If you use all the ice at once, you must
repeat Steps 2 and 3 under Ice Making.
However, only wait 8 hours before
dispensing the first 4 to 6 ice cubes.
This will replenish the ice cubes and
ensure maximum ice production.
Using the ice off Function
When you select the Ice Off mode, remove all ice
cubes from the bucket.
If you leave the ice cubes in the bucket, the ice
cubes may clump together, making it difficult to
remove them.
To remove the ice bucket safely and avoid injury,
hold the bottom of the bucket with one hand and
the side of the bucket with the other.
Then, lift up on the ice bucket, and pull it straight
out.
To put the ice bucket back in, push it firmly straight
back.
If the ice bucket is not pushed firmly into
place, ice in the bucket can melt.
If the bucket does not fit, turn the helix 90 degree
(see the last illustration on the right, below) and try
again.
CAUTION
• The inside of the ice bucket is very cold when
the refrigerator is operating.
Do not reach deep inside the ice bucket.
• Use only the ice maker provided with the
refrigerator. The water supply to this refrigerator
must only be installed/connected by a suitably
qualified person.
Connect to a potable water supply only.
• To operate the ice maker properly, water
pressure of 20 ~ 125psi is required.

Going on vacation...
If you are going on a long vacation or business trip
and won’t use the water or ice dispensers for a
long time:
• Close the water valve. Otherwise, water
leakage may occur.
• Remove all food and ice in the ice bucket.
• Unplug the refrigerator.
• Wipe excess moisture from inside and leave the
doors open.
Otherwise, odor and mold may develop.
Ice Maker Do’s and Don’ts
• Do not put your fingers, hands or any other
unsuitable objects in the chute or ice-maker
bucket.
- It may result in personal injury or material
damage.
• Never put your finger or any other objects in the
dispenser opening.
- It may cause injury.
• Do not try to disassemble the ice maker.
• Do not wash or spray the ice bucket with water
while it is in the refrigerator.
Remove it to clean it.
Water clouding phenomenon
All water provided to the refrigerator flows
through the core filter which is an alkaline
water filter.
In the filtering process, the pressure of
the water that has flowed out of the filter
is increased, and the water becomes
saturated with oxygen and nitrogen.
When this water flows out into the air, the
pressure plummets and the oxygen and
nitrogen get supersaturated, which results
in gas bubbles.
The water may temporarily look misty or
cloudy due to these oxygen bubbles.
After a few seconds, the water will look
clear.
Please wait 1 second before removing
the cup after dispensing water to prevent
spills.
Do not pull out the lever dispenser after
dispensing ice or water.
It comes back automatically.
Ice is made in cubes.
When you select “Crushed”, the ice maker
grinds the ice cubes into crushed ice.

CAUTION
When you insert the Ice maker tray, be sure that
the tray is well centered at the entrance.
Otherwise, the tray may get stuck.
