DANGER

Risk of child entrapment. Before you throw
away your old refrigerator or freezer

• Take off the doors

• Leave the shelves in places so that children
may not easily climb inside.

Onceyou have performedthe following steps,your refrigeratorshouldbe fully operational.If not,check

the powersupply and electricitysource. Ifyou have any questions,contactyour SAMSUNG
service center.

Placethe refigeratorin an appropriate loca-

tion with reasonableclearance betweenthe
wall and the refrigerator.

(referto installationinstructionsin this man-
nal)

When the refrigerator is plugged in,
the interior light should come on when
you open the doors.

Twin Cooling System

• The refrigerator and the freezer have two evaporators. Given this inde-
pendent system, the freezer and the refrigerator are cooled individually
as required and are, therefore, more efficient. Food odor from the refrig-
erator does not affect food in the freezer due to separate air flow circu-

lation.

Multi-Flow System

• Cool air circulates through multiple vents on every shelf level. This pro-

vides even distribution of cooling inside cabinets to keep your food
fresh longer.

Setthe temperaturecontrolto the coldest

temperatureand wait for an hour.The

.........

freezer should getslightlychilledand the

motor shouldrun smoothly.

Oncethe refrigeratortemperatureissuffi-
cientlylow,you can storefood in the

refrigerator.Afterstartingthe refrigerator,it
takes a few hoursto reachthe appropriate
temperature.

Xtra Space TM

• Vertical room next to the ice maker in the freezer provides space for
pizza etc.

Door Alarm

• Beeper reminds you that the door is open.

Xtra Fresh TM

• Optimized humidity control keeps vegetables & fruits fresh.

Deodorizer

• Reusable deodorizer keeps the refrigerator air fresh and odor free.
