suffocate.
Additional tips for proper usage
• In the event of a power failure, call the local ofce of your electric
company and ask how long the failure is going to last.
- Most power failures that are corrected in an hour or two will
not affect your refrigerator temperatures. However, you should
minimize the number of door openings while the power is off.
- Should the power failure last more than 24 hours, remove and
discard all frozen food.
• The refrigerator might not operate consistently (frozen contents
can thaw or temperatures can become too warm in the frozen
food compartment) if sited for an extended period of time in a
location where ambient air temperatures are constantly below the
Safety information
temperatures for which the appliance is designed.
• In case of particular foods, keeping it under refrigeration can have
a bad effect on preservation due to its properties.
• Your appliance is frost free, which means there is no need
to manually defrost your appliance. This will be carried out
automatically.
English21
Untitled-2 212019-08-13 1:28:51
Page 22
Safety information
• Temperature rise during defrosting complies with ISO
requirements. If you want to prevent an undue rise in the
temperature of frozen food while the appliance defrosts, wrap the

Safety information
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 (a radiator, for example).
• Not to block any vents and grilles is recommended for energy
efciency.
• 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 refrigerator open for too long when
putting food in or taking food out. The shorter the time the door is
open, the less frost build-up you’ll have in the freezer.
• It is recommended to install the refrigerator with clearance to the
back and sides. This will help reduce power consumption and keep
your energy bills lower.
• For the most efcient use of energy, please keep the all inner
ttings such as baskets, drawers, shelves on the position supplied
by manufacturer.

Ice maker
The refrigerator has a built-in ice maker that automatically dispenses ice so that you can
enjoy ltered water with cubed or crushed ice.
Ice making
After you have installed your refrigerator and plugged it in, follow these instructions to
ensure proper ice making and to keep the ice bucket full of ice:
1. Let the refrigerator operate for at least 24 hours to ensure optimal performance.
2. Dispense the rst 4 to 6 ice cubes into a glass.
3. Wait another 8 hours and dispense another 4 to 6 ice cubes.
4. Then, wait another 16 hours and dispense the rst glass-full of ice.
NOTE
• If you consume all the ice at once, you must wait 8 hours before dispensing the rst 4
to 6 cubes. This ensures that the ice bucket is lled with ice properly.
• Ice cubes generated rapidly may look white, which is normal.

• When reinserting the ice maker tray, make sure that the tray is properly centered at
the entrance. Otherwise, the tray can get stuck.
If You Turn the Ice Maker Off
If you press and hold Ice Maker for more than 3 seconds to turn the ice maker off, make
sure to remove all ice cubes from the ice bucket. Remaining ice cubes may clump together,
making it difcult to remove them.
To remove the ice bucket, see the Ice bucket (applicable models only) section on page 70.
NOTE
• Removal of the ice bucket does not affect the thermal and mechanical performance of
the refrigerator.
Water clouding
Water supplied to the refrigerator ows through a core alkaline lter. During this ltering
process, the water pressure of the water increases and the water becomes saturated with
oxygen and nitrogen. This causes the water to look misty or cloudy temporarily when
dispensed. This is normal and the water will look clear after a few seconds.
Cool Select+ (FlexZone) divider
You can change the divider position.
To do this, unlock the divider by turning
the divider dial counter clockwise. Then,

If the divider lock does not function, wipe
the bars to remove moisture on them.

Replacement
Water lter
WARNING
• Do not use third-party water lters. Use only Samsung-provided or -approved lters.
• Unapproved lters may leak and damage the refrigerator, causing electric shock.
Samsung is not responsible for any damage that may occur from use of third-party
water lters.
The Filter Reset indicator ( ) turns red to let you know it is time to replace the water
lter. Before replacing the lter, make sure the water supply line is shut off.

turn). The lter cartridge unlocks.
3. Pull out to remove the cartridge.
- If the water lter is severely
contaminated, the cartridge may not
be easy to remove. If that is the case,
use force to remove the cartridge.

7. When you are done replacing the lter,
open the water valve and run water
through the dispenser for about 7
minutes. This is to remove impurities
and air from the water line.
NOTE
• A newly installed lter may cause the water dispenser to spurt water briey. This is
because air has entered the waterline.
• The replacement process may cause the water dispenser to drip for a short period of
time. If it drips, simply wipe up any water on the oor with a dry towel.
Reverse osmosis water ltration system
The water pressure of the water supply system to a reverse osmosis water ltration
system must be between 35 psi and 120 psi (241 kPa and 827 kPa).
The water pressure of the reverse osmosis water ltration system to the refrigerator’s
cold water line must be at least 40 psi (276 kPa). If the water pressure is below these
specications:
Maintenance
• Check if the sediment lter in the reverse osmosis system is blocked. Replace the lter
if necessary.
• Rell the water tank in the reverse osmosis system with water.
• If your refrigerator has a water lter, it may further reduce the water pressure when
used in conjunction with a reverse osmosis system. Remove the water lter.
For more information or servicing, contact a licensed plumbing professional.
Ordering a new lter
To purchase a new water lter, contact a local Samsung service center or visit www.
samsungparts.com on the web.
LED Lamps
To replace the lamps of the refrigerator, contact a local Samsung service center.
• The lamps are not user-serviceable. Do not attempt to replace a lamp yourself. This can

Do you hear abnormal sounds from the refrigerator?
Clicking!
or Chirping!
Buzzing!
SSSRRR!
Whir!
HiSS!
Before calling for service, review the checkpoints below. Any service calls related to
normal sounds will be charged to the user.
These sounds are normal.
• When starting or ending an operation, the refrigerator may make sounds similar to a
car engine igniting. As the operation stabilizes, the sounds will decrease.
• While the fan is operating, these sounds may occur. When the refrigerator reaches the
set temperature, no fan sound will occur.
• During a defrost cycle, water may drip on the defrost heater, causing sizzling sounds.

Troubleshooting
Bubbling!
Cracking!
• As the refrigerator cools or freezes, refrigerant gas moves through sealed pipes,
causing bubbling sounds.
• As the refrigerator temperature increases or decreases, plastic parts contract and
expand, creating knocking noises. These noises occur during the defrosting cycle or
when electronic parts are working.
• For ice maker models: When the water valve opens to ll the ice maker, buzzing
sounds may occur.
• Due to pressure equalizing when opening and closing the refrigerator door, whooshing
sounds may occur.
