This appliance contains a small amount of isobutane refrigerant (R600a), a natural gas
with high environmental compatibility that is, however, also combustible. When transporting and installing the appliance, care should be taken to ensure that no parts of the refrigerating circuit are damaged.
Refrigerant squirting out of the pipes could ignite or cause an eye injury. If a leak is detected, avoid any naked flames or potential sources of ignition and air the room in which the appliance is standing for several minutes.
• In order to avoid the creation of a flammable gas-air mixture if
a leak in the refrigerating circuit occurs, the size of the room in which the appliance may be sited depends on the amount of refrigerant used. The room must be 1m
3
in size for every 8 g of R600a refrigerant inside the appliance. The amount of refriger­ant in your particular appliance is shown on the identification plate inside the appliance.
• Never start up an appliance showing any signs of damage. If in doubt, consult your dealer.

Once you have performed the following steps, your freezer/refrigerator should be fully opera­tional. If not, check the power supply and electricity source. If you have any doubts or prob­lems, contact your nearest SAMSUNG service center.
Place the shelves and containers which were removed for transport in their appropriate positions (refer to pages 8 to 9).
Set the temperature control to the coldest temperature and wait for one hour. The freezer/refrigerator should now be slightly chilled and the motor should run smoothly producing a soft humming noise.
Clean the freezer/refrigerator and accessories to remove any dust that may have accumulated during packing and shipping (refer to page 9).
Once the freezer/refrigerator tempera­ture is sufficiently cool, you can begin storing food inside. Please be advised that it takes a few hours after starting the freezer/refriger­ator to reach the appropriate tempera­ture.
When the refrigerator is plugged in, the interior light should illuminate every time the refrigerator door is opened.

FEATURES

Multi-Flow System
• Cool air circulates through multiple vents on each shelf level. This provides even distribution of cooling inside of freezer/refrigerator and keeps food fresher for longer.
High humidity for fresher food
• You can keep food, fruit and vegetables fresh for longer because your refrigerator supplies highly humidified cold air.
Door alarm
• When the refrigerator door is left open for more than two minutes, a musical alarm is automatically triggered. This feature helps you save electricity and preserve stored foods.
