GETTIN G R EAD Y TO INSTAL L THE

REFRIGERATOR

Congratulations on your purchase of this Samsung

French Door Refrigerator.

We hope you enjoy the state-of-art features and

Selecting the best location for the

refrigerator

A location with easy access to a water supply.•

A location without direct exposure to sunlight.•

A location with a leveled ﬂ oor.•

A location with enough space for the refrigerator •

doors to open easily.

A location that allows sufﬁ cient space to the •

right, left, back and top for air circulation.

A location that allows you to move the •

refrigerator easily if it needs maintenance or

service.

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 of 3 ¾” (95 mm)

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.

Allow clearance to the right, left, back and top •

when installing. This will help reduce power

consumption and keep your energy bills lower.

Do not install the refrigerator where the •

temperature will go below 50 ºF (10 ºC).

Do not locate the refrigerator where it may •

become wet.

When moving your refrigerator

To prevent ﬂ oor damage, be sure the front

adjusting legs are in the up position (above

the ﬂ oor). Refer to ‘Adjusting the Level’ in

refrigerator, or approximately 286.6 lbs (130 kg).

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 the refrigerator, you need to pull and push

it straight forwards or back. Do not wiggle it from

side to side.

ADJUSTING THE LEVEL

Make sure the refrigerator is level so that you can

make ﬁ nal adjustments. Use a level to test if the

refrigerator is level both side to side and back to

front. If the refrigerator is not level, it will not be

possible to get the doors perfectly even, which

may cause moisture condensation and increased

energy bills. Below is an example of how to level

the refrigerator if the left side of the refrigerator is

lower than the right side.

How to adjust the level

Open the freezer drawer and remove the lower 1.

basket.

Insert a ﬂ at-blade screwdriver (-) into a notch 2.

on the left control lever, and turn it count

clockwise to level the refrigerator. (You turn the

lever clockwise to lower the refrigerator and

counterclockwise to raise it.)

Both control levers must be touching the

ﬂ oor to avoid possible personal injury or

property damage because of tipping.

If the right side is lower, perform the same

procedure, but with the right control lever.

It is difﬁ cult to remove the cover leg

front from the refrigerator, so we do not

recommend making small adjustments

with the control lever. Instead, refer to the

next page for the best way to make minor

adjustments to the doors.

CAUTION

MAKING MINOR ADJUSTMENTS

BETWEEN DOORS

Remember, a leveled refrigerator is necessary

for getting the doors perfectly even. If you need

help, review the previous section on leveling the

refrigerator.

The left door is ﬁ xed. To make minor

adjustments between doors, adjust only the

right door.

Pull out the freezer drawer ( 1. 1 ), then you can

see the lower hinge ( 2 ).

Insert the supplied allen wrench (3/16”) ( 2. 3 ) into

the shaft ( 4 ) of the lower hinge.

Please adjust the height by turning the 3.

hex wrench ( 3 ) clockwise (

DOWNDOWN

) or

counterclockwise (

UPUP

).

When you turn the hex wrench counter-

clockwise(

), the door will move up.

Call a qualiﬁ ed plumber to correct the problem

before installing the water supply line to the

fridge.

To prevent burns and product damage, do not •

hook up the water line to the hot water line.

Do not install the water line in areas where •

temperatures fall below freezing.

When using any electrical device (such as •

a power drill) during installation, be sure the
