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 a leveled floor.

• A location with enough space for the refrigerator

doors to open easily.

• Allow sufficient space to the right, left, back and
top for air circulation.

• Plaease ensure that appliance can be moved freely
in the event of maintenance & service.

• Allow clearance to the
right, left, back and top
when installing.
This will help reduce power
consumption and keep
your energy bills lower.

• Do not install the refrigerator
where the temperature will go
below 50ºF (10ºC).

• Do not locate the refrigerator where it may become
wet.

When moving your refrigerator

To prevent floor damage, be sure the front

CAUTION

adjusting legs are in the up position (above
the floor).
Refer to ‘Adjusting the doors’ in the manual
(on page 9).

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,
you need a minimum clearance of 3 ¾” (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.

FLOORING

For proper installation, this refrigerator must be placed
on a leveled surface of hard material that is the same
height as the rest of the flooring. This surface should
be strong enough to support a fully loaded refrigerator,
or approximately 359lbs (165kg).
To protect the finish of the flooring, cut a large
section of the cardboard carton and place it under
the refrigerator where you are working. When moving
a refrigerator, you need to pull and push it straight
forwards or back. Do not wiggle it from side to side.

ADJUSTING THE LEVEL

Make sure the refrigerator is level so that you can
make final adjustments. Use a level to test if the
refigerator is level both side to side and back to front.
If the refrigerator is not level, it will not be possible
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.

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.

MAKING MINOR ADJUSTMENTS

Remember, a leveled refrigerator is necessary for
getting the doors perfectly even. If you need help,
review the previous section on leveling the refrigerator.

1. After adjusting the doors, please insert the
supplied fastener ( 6 ) using a pliers ( 5 ) in the gap
between the hinge-grommet ( 7 ) and the lower
hinge ( 8 ). The number of fastener you’ll need to
insert depends on the gap.

CHECKING 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 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 is required.

Under normal conditions, a 170 cc (5.75 oz.) cup can
be filled in about 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.

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.

There are several items that you need to purchase to
complete this connection.

You may find these items sold as a kit at your local

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 ¼” compression nut.

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.

COMPLETING THE SET UP

Now that you have your new refrigerator installed in
place, you are ready to set up and enjoy the features
and functions of the appliance.
By completing the following steps, your refrigerator
should be fully operational.

1. Make sure your refrigerator is in an appropriate

location with reasonable clearance between it and
the wall.
Refer to installation instructions in this manual.

2. Once the refrigerator is plugged in, make sure the

interior light comes on when you open the doors.

3. Set the Temperature control to the coldest

temperature and wait for an hour.
The freezer will get slightly chilled and the motor
will run smoothly. Reset the refrigerator and freezer
to the temperatures you want.

4. After you plug the refrigerator in, it will take a few

hours to reach the appropriate temperature.
You can store food and drinks in the refrigerator
after the temperature is sufficiently cool.

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

4. Turn water on and check for any leakage. If you
find water drops or leakage in the connection
areas, turn off the main water supply.
Check the connections and, if nescessary, tighten.

5. Flush 1 gallon of water through the filter before
drinking or using the water from the refrigerator.
(Flush approximately 6 minutes.)
To flush, press a large glass or cup against the
water dispenser lever.
Fill the glass, empty it into the kitchen sink after it
is filled, and then repeat.
