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.
If the Refrigerator does not have enough space, the internal cooling
system may not work properly.
, Please ensure that appliance can be moved freely in the event of
maintenance & service.
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 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.
The following chart details the exact height and depth of this Samsung

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 3281bs (150kg). 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.
How to adjust the level
1. Open the freezer drawer and remove the lower basket. (See to page 11)
2. Remove the two screws (@) attached to the cover leg front (1_) with a Philips screwdriver(+).
/
/
3. Remove the cover leg front (1_) by lifting the bottom part of the cover leg front up and pulling it out.
4. Insert a flat-blade screwdriver (-) into a notch on the left control lever, and turn it count clockwise to level
the refrigerator. (You turn the lever clockwise to lower the refrigerator and counterclockwise to raise it.)
flat-blade screwdriver(-) Control Lever Control Lever flat=blade screwdriver(=)
Z_ Both control levers must be touching the floor to avoid possible personal injury or property damage because of
....... tipping.
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 A WATER LINE KIT
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.
For the ice maker to operate properly, a water pressure of 20-125 psi is required.
Within this water pressure range, a 170 cc (5.75 oz.) cup fills 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.
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 1/4,,compression nut.
Connecting to the water supply line
1. First, shut off the main water supply.
2. Locate the nearest cold water drinking line and install the pipe
clamp and shut off valve.

CAUTION
2. Tighten the compression nut ® onto the compression fitting. Do not over-tighten the compression nut ®.
3. Turn the water on and check for any leakage. If you see water drops or leakage in the connection areas,
turn off the main water supply. Check the connections, and tighten more if necessary.
4. Let the ice maker make ice for 1 to 2 days. Over that period of time, throw out the first 1 or 2 buckets of
ice the ice maker makes to ensure all impurities have been removed from the water line.
5. Check again for leaks. If you see water drops or leakage in the connection area, turn off the main water
supply. Check the connections, and tighten more if necessary.
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.
