MAJOR FEATURES

Twin Cooling System
The refrigerator and the freezer have two evaporators. Given this inde­pendent system, the freezer and the refrigerator are cooled individually as required and are, therefore, more efficient. Food odor from the refrig­erator does not affect food in the freezer due to separate air flow circu­lation.
Multi-Flow System
Cool air circulates through multiple vents on every shelf level. This pro­vides even distribution of cooling inside cabinets to keep your food fresh longer.
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.
CoolSelect Zone
TM
Drawer (RS2555, RS2577)
• User can select Quick Cool, Thaw and Select buttons for quickly chill, thaw and cools items. Select Soft Freeze, Cool or Chill to control the temperature of drawer.
SETTING UP THE
REFRIGERATOR
Once you have performed the following steps, your refrigerator should be fully operational. If not, check the power supply and electricity source. If you have any questions, contact your SAMSUNG service center.
Place the refigerator in an appropriate loca­tion with reasonable clearance between the wall and the refigerator. (refer to installation instructions in this man­nal)
Set the temperature control to the coldest temperature and wait for an hour. The freezer should get slightly chilled and the motor should run smoothly.
