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.

increases energy consumption.

- Do not set temperature colder than necessary.

- Ensure suffi cient air exhaust at the refrigerator base
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.

CHECKING THE WATER
DISPENSER LINE (OPTIONAL)

A water dispenser is just 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
will need to purchase a water purifying system to do
that. In order for the icemaker to operate properly,
water pressure of 138 ~862 kPa is required. Under
normal conditions, a 170 cc paper cup can be fi lled
in 10 seconds. If the refrigerator is installed in an area
with low water pressure (below 138 kPa), 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. When using the Water Dispenser, Slight
noises can be generated from supplying water.

Water Line installation Kits are included. You can
fi nd it in one of the freezer drawers.

USING THE ICE MAKER (OPTIONAL)

(RS77*)
To Remove the Ice Bucket

-

Hold the handle as shown in fi gure1.

-

Slightly pull up the bottom part.

-

Take out the ice bucket slowly.

To Refi t The Ice Bucket

- Assemble it in the reverse
order of disassembly.

- Push the bucket in fi rmly until
you hear a clicking sound.

- When the bucket does not fi t
into its place, turn the gear
handle on its back by 90
degrees and reinstall it again
as shown in fi gure 2.

Normal Operation

-

Any sounds you hear when the ice
maker dumps ice into the bucket
are part of normal operation.

- Not dispensing ice for long
periods may cause ice
clumps in the ice bucket.
Remove the remaining ice
and empty the bucket.

- When ice does not come out,
Check for any ice stuck in the
chute and remove it.

-

The fi rst batch of ice cubes may
be small due to air in the pipe
after connection, any air will be
purged during normal use.

- When ICE OFF blinks on the display panel,
reinsert the bucket and/or make sure it’s
installed properly.

- When the door is open, the Ice and water
dispenser do not work.

- If you close the door hard, it may cause
water spilling over the ice maker.

- To prevent dropping the ice bucket, use
both hands when removing it.

PROBLEM SOLUTION

The refrigerator
does not work at all
or it does not chill
suffi ciently.

• Check that the power plug is properly connected.

• Is the temperature control on the display panel set to the correct
temperature? Try setting it to a lower temperature.

• Is the refrigerator in direct sunlight or located too near a heat source?

• Is the back of the refrigerator too close to the wall and therefore keeping air
from circulating?

The food in the fridge is
frozen.

• Is the temperature control on the display panel set to the correct
temperature? Try setting it to a warmer temperature.

• Is the temperature in the room very low?

• Did you store the food with a high water content in the coldest part of the
fridge? Try moving those items into the body of the fridge instead of keeping
them in the CoolSelect Zone™ drawer.

You hear unusual
noises or sounds.

• Check that the refrigerator is level and stable.

• Is the back of the refrigerator too close to the wall and therefore keeping air
from circulating?

• Was anything dropped behind or under the refrigerator?

• A “ticking” sound is heard from inside the refrigerator. This is normal and
occurs because various accessories are contracting or expanding in relation
to the temperature of the refrigerator interior.

The front corners of
the appliance are hot
and condensation is
occurring.

• Some heat is normal as anti-condensators are installed in the front corners
of the refrigerator to prevent condensation.

• Is the refrigerator door ajar? Condensation can occur when you leave the
door open for a long time.

Ice is not dispensing.

• Did you wait for 12 hours after installation of the water supply line before
making ice?

• Is the water line connected and the shut-off valve open?

• Did you manually stop the ice making function? Make sure Ice Type is set to
Cubed or Crushed.

• Is there any ice blocked within the ice maker bucket?

• Is the freezer temperature too warm? Try setting the freezer temperature
lower.

You can hear water
bubbling in the
refrigerator.

• This is normal. The bubbling comes from the refrigerant coolant liquid
circulating through the refrigerator.

There is a bad smell in
the refrigerator.

• Has a food item spoiled?

• Make sure that strong smelling food (for example, fi sh) is wrapped so that it
is airtight.

• Clean out your freezer periodically and throw away any spoiled or suspect
food.

Frost forms on the
walls of the freezer.

• Is the air vent blocked? Remove any obstructions so air can circulate freely.

• Allow suffi cient space between the foods stored for effi cient air circulation.

• Is the freezer door closed properly?

Water dispenser is not
functioning.

• Is the water line connected and the shut-off valve open?

• Has the water supply line tubing been crushed or kinked?
Make sure the tubing is free and clear of any obstruction.

• Is the water tank frozen because the refrigerator temperature is too low?
Try selecting a warmer setting on the main display panel.
