STEP 6 Connect the water dispenser line

A water dispenser with a lter is one of the helpful features on your new refrigerator. To
help promote better health, the water lter 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.

The water line also connects to the ice maker. For the ice maker to operate properly,
water pressure must be between 30-125 psi (206-861 kPa).

If the refrigerator is installed in an area with low water pressure (below 30 psi / 206 kPa),
you can install a booster pump to compensate for the low pressure.

After you have connected the water line, check if the water dispenser works properly.
Press the water dispenser lever until the water runs from the water outlet.

Installation

• Water line installation kits are available at extra cost from your retailer. We

NOTE

recommend using a water line installation kit that contains copper tubing and a 1/4"

In addition, to use the Smart Grid (Demand Response) function, you must register for the
service with your electric company. The company must have an EMS (Energy Management
System) that supports SEP (Smart Energy prole).

Using the SMART GRID (Demand Response) Function

This feature monitors energy prices and demand information from your utility company
and sends notications to the refrigerator to run high energy consuming tasks during off­peak times when electricity costs and demand are lower.

If the refrigerator receives a control signal from the utility company, the refrigerator
will display the DAL ~ TALR levels on the refrigerator display and control the power
consumption according to the level.

[Exception condition] The DAL and TALR control signals from a utility company work as
long as product performance is maintained.

If the refrigerator receives the SMART GRID (Demand Response) signal (DAL or TALR),
the refrigerator will operate in Delay Appliance Load (DAL) or Temporary Appliance Load
Reduction (TALR) mode.

English46

Untitled-1 46 2021-02-02  11:54:37

• Delay Appliance Load (DAL): The refrigerator responds to a DAL signal by providing
a moderate load reduction for the duration of the delay period. This function controls
functions that consume a lot of energy such as adjusting the Cooling system, running
the defrost cycle, and making ice.

- When the refrigerator operates in DAL mode, “DAL” is displayed on the refrigerator

display.

- DAL mode is automatically deactivated after it lasts for the amount of time
stipulated by the DAL signal (max. 4.5 hours) or when the Peak Demand Off key is
pressed.

• Temporary Appliance Load Reduction (TALR): The refrigerator responds to a TALR

signal by aggressively reducing the load for a short time period. This function reduces
energy consumption by stopping the compressor and controlling the functions that
consume a lot of energy such as the defrost cycle and making ice.

- When the refrigerator operates in TALR mode, “TALR” is displayed on the
refrigerator display.

- TALR mode is automatically deactivated after it lasts for the received duration (max.
15 minutes), or when the Peak Demand Off key is pressed. The mode is immediately
deactivated and the refrigerator returns to the normal state when the door is
opened or closed, or the dispenser is used.

Untitled-1 53 2021-02-02  11:54:38

Operations

Water clouding

Water supplied to the refrigerator ows through a core alkaline lter. During this ltering
process, the water pressure of the water increases and the water becomes saturated with
oxygen and nitrogen. This causes the water to look misty or cloudy temporarily when
dispensed. This is normal and the water will look clear after a few seconds.

Ice maker

The refrigerator has a built-in ice maker that automatically dispenses ice.

• The overall design and/or accessories may differ with the model.

• This product has two types of ice
makers.

Ice making

Operations

After you have installed your refrigerator and plugged it in, follow these instructions to
ensure proper ice making and to keep the ice bucket full of ice.

For rst-time use

• Let the ice maker make ice for 1-2 days.

• Discard the rst 1-2 buckets of ice to remove impurities in the water supply system.

Diagnosis

• The overall design and/or accessories
may differ with the model.

• If ice does not dispense, rst check
the status of ice maker using the Test
button on the bottom of the ice maker.

• Press the Test button on the bottom of
the ice maker. You will hear a chime
(ding-dong) when you press the button.
You will hear another chime if the ice
maker is operating properly.

English54

Untitled-1 54 2021-02-02  11:54:39

• Ice accumulating on one side of the tray
is normal. Arrange the ice evenly in the
tray to store more ice.

CAUTION

• Leaving the water line disconnected may cause the water valve to produce a buzzing
sound over time. If this is the case, make sure to turn the ice making function (Cubed
Ice / Ice Bites ) off.

• If the ice making chime rings repeatedly, contact the waterline installer or a local
Samsung service center.

• Do not put food in the ice bucket. The frozen food may damage the ice maker,
especially when you open or close the door.

• When the refrigerator recovers power after a power failure, the ice bucket may
contain a mix of melted and jammed ice cubes, which can prevent the ice maker from
working properly. To prevent this, make sure to empty the ice bucket before using the
refrigerator.

• Do not put ngers or any objects into the ice maker. This can cause physical injury or
property damage.

• Due to sublimation, ice stored in the freezer for a long time gets smaller and then
forms large ice chunks. Therefore, if it will be a long time before you use ice, turn the
ice maker off as follows.

• Use the new hose-sets supplied with the appliance only. Do not re-use an old hose set.
