SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a volt­age rating that matches the rating plate.
This provides the best performance and also prevents overload­ing house wiring circuits, which could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.
Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling the power cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet.
Make sure that the power plug is not squashed or damaged by the back of the refrigerator. Do not bend the power cord excessively or place heavy articles on it.
Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end. If the power cord is damaged, have it replaced immediately by the manufacturer or its service agent.
When moving the refrigerator, be careful not to roll over or damage the power cord.
Do not insert the power plug with wet hands. Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning and mak-
ing repairs.
Do not use a wet or damp cloth when cleaning the plug. Remove any foreign matter or dust from the power plug pins.
• Otherwise there is a risk of fire.
• If the refrigerator is disconnected from the power supply, you should wait for at least five minutes before plugging it back.

INITIAL OPERATING CONDITION

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.
MAJOR FEATURES
Twin Cooling System
• The refrigerator and the freezer have two evapora tors. 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.
Door Alarm
• A beeper reminds you if the door is left open.
When the refrigerator is plugged in, the interior light should come on when you open the doors.
Once the refrigerator temperature is sufficiently low, you can store food in the refrigerator. After starting the refrigerator, it takes a few hours to reach the appropriate temperature.
Beverage Station (optional)
• You do not have to open the main door to access frequently used food in the extra refrigerating com­partment. This saves time and money.
Deodorizer
• Reusable deodorizer keeps the refrigerator air fresh and odor free.
CoolSelect

Zone
Drawer
(optional)
• User can select Soft Freeze, 0 Zone, Quick Cool, Cool, Thaw items.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
High humidity for fresher food
• You can keep food, fruit and vegetables fresh for longer because your refrigerator supplies highly humidified cold air. This can be up to four or five times more effective than a normal refrigerator.
Energy-saving fridge/freezer
• Power consumption is kept to a minimum by distrib­uting cool air separately to the refrigerator and freezer.
Faster cooling times
• The power freeze function allow you to freeze food more quickly.
Abundant supply of ice and cold water
• The ice and water dispenser provides ice and cold water at any time.
