##### Selecting the best location for the refrigerator

If the refrigerator does not have enough space, the internal cooling system may not work properly. If your refrigerator has an ice maker, allow extra space at the back for the water line connections. When you install the refrigerator next to a fi xed wall, you need a minimum clearance is 3 ¾” (95mm) between the refrigerator and wall to allow the door to swing open. First thing! Make sure that you can easily move your refrigerator to its fi nal location by measuring doorways (both width and height), thresholds, ceilings, stairways, etc. The following chart details the exact height and depth of this Samsung French Door Refrigerator.

CAUTION

FLOORING For proper installation, this refrigerator must be placed on a leveled surface of hard material that is the same height as the rest of the fl ooring. This surface should be strong enough to support a fully loaded refrigerator, or approximately 359lbs (165kg). To protect the fi nish of the fl ooring, cut a large section of the cardboard carton and place it under the refrigerator where you are working. When moving a refrigerator, you need to pull and push it straight forwards or back. Do not wiggle it from side to side.








Press the Energy Saver button for better energy effi ciency. The Energy Saver icon lights up when you press the Energy Saver button. The Energy Saver function is automatically set to “ON” when power is supplied to the refrigerator. If condensation or water drops appear on the doors, turn the Energy Saver mode off.

/ Cooling Off Mode

The Power Freeze function substantially speeds up the freezer compressor, causing the freezer to cool down rapidly to a temperature you choose. When you press the Power Freeze button, the Power Freeze icon lights up. Power Freeze is useful if you need to quick freeze an item, to make a large quantity of ice, or to cool the freezer rapidly if it has warmed dramatically (for example, if the door was left open). To turn off Power Freeze, press the Power Freeze button again. Power Freeze turns off automatically after 21/2 hours to decrease energy consumption. Cooling Off mode (also called Shop mode), is designed for use by retailers when they are displaying refrigerators on the shop fl oor. In Cooling Off mode, the refrigerator's fan motor and lights work normally, but the compressors do not run, and the refrigerator and freezer do not get cold. To start Cooling Off mode, press and hold the Energy Saver button and the Power Freeze button for 3 seconds during normal operation. The refrigerator chime sounds and the temperature display fl ashes OF OF. To cancel Cooling Off mode, press and hold the Energy Saver and the Power Freeze buttons again for 3 seconds.

The Alarm/Hold 3 sec for Filter Reset button serves two purposes:

the water fi lter life indicator. When you re-set the water fi lter life indicator, the Filter icon on the panel turns blue, green, or yellow.

The Filter icon will turn red to let you know it is time to change the water fi lter after six months

(about 300 gallons). Some areas have large amounts of lime in their water, which causes the water fi lter to clog more quickly. if this is the case in your area, you will have to change the fi lter more frequently than every six months.

#### CONTROLLING THE TEMPERATURE Basic temperature of Freezer and Refrigerator compartments

The basic temperature and/or recommended temperatures of the Freezer and Refrigerator Compartments are -2°F and 38°F respectively. If the temperature of Freezer and Refrigerator Compartments are too high or low, adjust the temperature manually.

#### Controlling the Freezer temperature

The Freezer temperature can be set between -8°F and 8°F to suit your particular needs. Press the Freezer button repeatedly until the desired temperature is shown in the temperature display. The temperature will move 2°F degrees with each press (-2°F → -4°F


→ -6°F → -8°F → 8°F → 6°F → 4°F → 2°F → 0°F → -2°F). Keep in mind that foods like ice cream may melt at 4°F. The temperature display will move sequentially from -8°F to 8°F. Five seconds after the new temperature is set, the display will show the actual current freezer temperature until the new temperature is reached.

Recommend Temp (Freezer) : -2F

#### Controlling the fridge temperature

The fridge temperature can be set between 46°F and 34°F to suit your particular needs. Press the Fridge button repeatedly until the desired temperature is shown in the temperature display. The temperature will move 2°F degrees with each press (38°F → 36°F → 34°F → 46°F → 44°F → 42°F → 40°F → 38°F). The temperature control process for the Fridge works just like the Freezer process. Press the Fridge button to set your desired temperature. After a few seconds, the Fridge will begin adjusting towards the newly set temperature. This will be refl ected in the digital display.

Troubleshooting

|PROBLEM|SOLUTION| |---|---| |The refrigerator does not work at all or it does not chill sufficiently.|• Check that the power plug is properly connected.
• Check if the set temperature on the digital display is warmer than the freezer or fridge inner temperature. If it is, set the refrigerator colder.
• Is the refrigerator in direct sunlight or located near a heat source?
• Is the back of the refrigerator too close to the wall, preventing proper ventilation?
| |The food in the fridge is frozen.|• Check if the set temperature on the digital display is too low.
• Try setting the refrigerator to a warmer temperature.
• Is the temperature in the room too low? Set the refrigerator warmer.
• Did you store the food which is juicy in the coldest part of the refrigerator? Try moving those items to the other shelves in fridge instead of keeping them in the colder areas or bins.
| |You hear unusual noise or sounds.|• Check that the refrigerator is level and stable.
• Is the back of the refrigerator too close to the wall, preventing proper ventilation? Try moving the back of the refrigerator at least 2 inches from the wall.
• Was anything dropped behind or under the refrigerator?
• A “ticking” sound is heard from inside the refrigerator. It is normal and occurs because various accessories are contracting or expanding according to the temperature of the refrigerator interior.
| |The cabinet-door sealing area of the appliance is hot and condensation is occurring.|• Some heat is normal as anti-condensators are installed in the vertical hinged section of the refrigerator to prevent condensation.
• Is the refrigerator door ajar? Condensation can occur when you leave the door open for a long time.
• If it sounds as if something is hitting something else inside the refrigerator, this is normal. The sound is due to the compressor is operating highly.
| |Ice Maker is not producing ice.|• 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 opened?
• Did you manually stop the ice making function?
• 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 refrigerant circulating through the refrigerator.| |There is a bad smell in the refrigerator.|• Check for spoiled food.
• Foods with strong odors (for example, fish) should be tightly covered.
• Clean out your freezer periodically and throw away any spoiled or suspicious food.
| |Frost forms on the walls of the freezer.|• Is the air vent blocked? Remove any obstructions so air can circulate freely.
• Allow sufficient space between the stored foods for efficient air circulation.
• Is the freezer drawer closed properly?
| |Water dispenser is not functioning.|• Is the water line connected and the shut-off valve opened?
• 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 fridge temperature is too low? Try selecting a warmer setting on the Digital display.
| |Auto close system does not work with the freezer door.|• Is there an imbalance between the right and left parts of the door?
• Open and close the door smoothly 1~2 times. After you do this, the auto close system usually works properly again.
• Try opening the door smoothly to avoid unbalancing the right part and the left part of the door.
