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 (radiator, for example).

- Never block any vents or grilles on the appliance.

- 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 time for which the door is open, the less ice will form in the freezer.

- Clean the rear of the refrigerator regularly. Dust increases energy consumption.

- Do not set temperature colder than necessary.

and at the back wall of the refrigerator. Do not cover air vent openings.

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

- For the most e cient use of energy, please keep the all inner ﬁ ttings such as baskets, drawers, shelves on the position supplied by manufacturer.

This appliance is intended to be used in household and similar applications such as

LEVELING THE REFRIGERATOR AND ADJUSTING HEIGHT AND GAP OF THE DOORS

How to level the refrigerator

To avoid a hazard due to instability of the refrigerator, please place the refrigerator on a horizontal support and levelled in accordance with the following instruction for installation. Failing to do so may result in the refrigerator tipping and a personal injury. If the front of the appliance is slightly higher than the rear, the door can be opened and closed more easily. Setting up the refrigerator on an uneven surface will cause the refrigerator to be uneven.

- When install the refrigerator, the legs should touch the ﬂ oor surely. The legs should be located on the back of under the each door. Insert it with ﬂ athead screwdriver and tighten up to arrow direction.

- Do not put the food on only one side when store the food. If put it on only one side, it is able to occur the conduction and injury.

• Insert a ﬂ athead screwdriver into the height leveler located at the bottom back of the freezer door and turn it in the direction of the arrow until it is level.

HOW TO ADJUST THE DOOR HEIGHT

If refrigerator door is lower than the other:

• The door height levels can be adjusted using the adjustment nut located at the bottom of refrigerator door.

• Raising the door too high can cause the door to interfere with the hinge cover when it is opened or closed.

If the refrigerator side is lower:

• Insert a ﬂ athead screwdriver into the height leveler located at the bottom back of the refrigerator door and turn in the direction of the arrow until it is level.

• Raise the front of the refrigerator so that the doors close by themselves. Adjusting the levelers so that the back of the refrigerator is much higher than the front of the refrigerator can make it di cult to open the doors.

• If the back of the refrigerator is not level, support the bottom with an appropriately sized object and secure the object in place using tape. Slide the refrigerator into its spot and then adjust the level.

• When pushing the refrigerator in, be careful not to damage the ﬂ oor.

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 ﬁ 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. In order for the ice maker to operate properly, a water pressure of 20~125psi (138~862kPa) (pound per square inch) is required. Under normal conditions, a 170cc (5.75oz.) paper cup can be ﬁ lled in 10 seconds. If the Refrigerator is installed in an area with low water pressure (below 20psi), you can install a booster pump to compensate for the low pressure. Make sure the water storage tank inside the Refrigerator is properly ﬁ lled. 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.

2. Once the gap between the door and the refrigerator has been adjusted, turn the adjustor nut in the clockwise direction ( ) to lock the adjustor in place.
