- Leave the shelves in place so that children
cannot easily climb inside.
- Children trapped inside a refrigerator can hurt
themselves or suffocate to death.
Please dispose of the packaging material from
this product in an environmentally friendly
manner.
Ensure that none of the pipes on the back of
the appliance are damaged prior to disposal.
R-600a or R-134a is used as a refrigerant.
Check the compressor label on the rear of
the appliance or the rating label inside the
fridge to see which refrigerant is used for your
refrigerator. If this product contains flammable
gas (Refrigerant R-600a), contact your local
authority in regard to safe disposal of this
product.
When disposing of this refrigerator, remove
the door/door seals and door latch so that
small children or animals cannot become
trapped inside. Children should be supervised
to ensure that they do not play with the
appliance.
If trapped inside, the child may get hurt or
suffocate to death.
Cyclopentane is used in the insulation. The
gases in the insulation material require a
special disposal procedure. Please contact
your local authorities in regard to the
environmentally safe disposal of this product.
Keep all packaging materials well out of the
reach of children, as packaging materials can
be dangerous to children.
- If a child places a bag over his or her head, the
child could suffocate.
ADDITIONAL TIPS FOR
PROPER USAGE
In the event of a power failure, call the local
office of your Electricity Company and ask how
long it 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.
- If the power failure lasts more than 24 hours,
remove and discard all frozen food.
The appliance might not operate consistently
(frozen contents can thaw or temperatures
can become too warm in the frozen food
compartment) when sited for an extended
period of time in a location where ambient
air temperatures are constantly below the
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.
Temperature rise during defrosting complies
with ISO requirements. But If you want to
prevent an undue rise in the temperature of the
frozen food while the appliance defrosts, wrap
the frozen food in several layers of newspaper.
Do not re-freeze frozen foods that have
thawed completely.

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).
- Not to block any vents and grilles is
recommended for energy efficiency.
- 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 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.

ADJUSTING THE LEVEL
Make sure the refrigerator is level so that you can
make final 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, you will not
be able 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.
flat-blade screwdriver (-)
Control Lever
How to adjust the level
1. Open the freezer drawer and remove the lower
basket.
2. Insert a flat-blade screwdriver (-) into the notch
on the left control lever, and turn it counter-
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
floor 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 difficult 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 TO THE

01 SETTING UP
INSTALLING THE WATER
DISPENSER LINE
A water dispenser with a filter is one of the helpful
features on your new refrigerator. To help promote
better health, the water filter removes unwanted
particles from your water. However, it does not
sterilize or destroy microorganisms. You may need
to purchase a water purifying system to do that.
The water line also connects to the ice maker.
For the ice maker to operate properly, water
pressure of 20-125 psi (138 ~ 862Kpa) is required.
If the refrigerator is installed in an area with low
water pressure (below 20psi), you can install
a booster pump to compensate for the low
pressure.
After you have connected the water line, make
sure the water storage tank inside the refrigerator
is properly filled. To do this, press the water
dispenser lever until the water runs from the water
outlet.
Water line installation kits are available at
extra cost from your dealer.
We recommend using a water line
installation kit that contains copper tubing
and ¼” compression nut.
Connecting to the water supply line
1. First, shut off the main water
supply.
2. Locate the nearest cold water drinking line and
install the pipe clamp and shut off valve.
3. Connect the water line installation kit to the
shut off valve.

1. Connect the household water line to the
assembled compression fitting.
- If you are using copper tubing, slip the
compression nut ( A ) (not supplied) and
ferrule (not supplied) on the copper tubing (not
supplied) as shown.
- If you are using plastic tubing ( B ) , insert the
molded end (Bulb) of the plastic tubing ( B )
into the compression fitting.
Do not use without the molded end (Bulb)
of the plastic tubing ( B ).
2. Tighten the compression nut ( A ) onto the
compression fitting.
Do not over-tighten the compression nut ( A ) .
3. Turn the water on and check for any leakage.
If you find water drops or leakage in the
connection areas, turn off the main water
supply. Check the connections and, if
necessary, tighten.
4. Flush 1 gallon of water through the filter
before drinking or using the water from the
refrigerator. (Flush approximately 6 minutes.)
To flush, press a large glass or cup against the
water dispenser lever. Fill the glass, empty it
into the kitchen sink after it is filled, and then
repeat.
5. After you turn on the refrigerator, let the ice
maker make ice for 1 to 2 days. Over that
period of time, throw out the first 1 or 2
buckets of ice the freezer makes to ensure all
impurities have been removed from the water
line.
Only connect the water line to a drinkable
water source.
If you have to repair or disassemble the water line,
cut off 1/4“ of the plastic tubing to make sure you
get a snug, leak-free connection.
You can test the water line quickly using a
paper cup. Under normal conditions, the
water dispenser can fill a 5.75 oz. (170cc)
cup in about 10 seconds.
CAUTION
Completing the Set Up
Now that you have your new refrigerator installed
in place, you are ready to set up and enjoy the
features and functions of the appliance. By
completing the following steps, your refrigerator
should be fully operational.
1. Make sure your refrigerator is in an appropriate
location with reasonable clearance between it
and the wall. Refer to installation instructions in
this manual.
2. Once the refrigerator is plugged in, make sure
the interior light comes on when you open the
doors.
3. Set the Temperature control to the coldest
temperature and wait for an hour. The freezer
will get slightly chilled and the motor will run
smoothly. Reset the refrigerator and freezer to
the temperatures you want.
4. After you plug the refrigerator in, it will
take a few hours to reach the appropriate
temperature. You can store food and drinks
in the refrigerator after the temperature is
sufficiently cool.
If condensation or water drops appears
on both sides of fridge door’s central
part, turn the Energy Saver mode off after
removing the condensation. (See the
explanation on Energy Saver button in the

CHANGING THE WATER
FILTER
To reduce the risk water damage to your
property DO NOT use generic brands of
water filters in your SAMSUNG
Refrigerator.
USE ONLY SAMSUNG BRAND
WATER FILTERS. SAMSUNG is not
legally responsible for any damage,
including, but not limited to, property
damage caused by water leakage
from the use of a generic water filter. SAMSUNG
Refrigerators are designed to work ONLY WITH
SAMSUNG Water Filters.
The Filter light turns red to let you know when it is
time to change your water filter cartridge.
To give you time to get a new filter, the red light
comes on just before the capacity of the current
filter runs out. Changing the filter on time provides
you with the freshest, cleanest water from your
refrigerator.
To change the water filter, follow these steps:
1. Shut off the water supply. Then, turn the water
filter (1) about 1/4 turn, counter-clockwise.
2
1
2. Pull the water filter (1) from the case filter (2).
• To change the water filter more easily,
shut off the water supply valve.
Sometimes, it is hard to disassemble the water
filter because impurities in the water cause it
to stick. If you are having difficulties, grip the
water filter firmly and pull it hard.
When you pull the water filter, a little water
can leak from the opening. This is normal.
To minimize the water leaks, keep the filter
cartridge horizontal when you pull it.
To prevent overflow,
empty the water filter
tray (3) and dry
around the filter case
(2).

3. Insert the new filter into the filter case (4).
4. Push the filter, and then turn it clockwise until
it locks.
• If you have trouble inserting the water
filter because of high water pressure,
shut off the water supply valve.
• The locked symbol should be lined up
with the indicator line.

5. Touch the “Alarm/hold
3 sec for Filter Reset”
button (
(Filter Reset)
) for
about 3 seconds to reset
the water filter. The color
of the indicator (
)
changes from red to off.
6. If you turned off the water supply, turn it back
on.
For a replacement water filter, you can visit
your local home Improvement center or
contact the Samsung Parts distributor.
To order more water filter cartridges,
contact your authorized Samsung dealer.
Be sure the replacement water filter has
the SAMSUNG logo on the box and on the
water filter.
Removing any residual matter inside
the water supply line after installing
the water filter.
1. Turn ON the main water supply and supply
water from water supply line.
2. Run water through the
dispenser until the water
runs clear (approx. 6 to 7
minutes). This will clean
the water supply system
and remove air from the
lines.
3. Additional flushing may be required in some
households.
4. Open the Refrigerator door and make sure
there are no water leaks coming from the
water filter.
Be sure to flush the dispenser thoroughly,
otherwise water may drip from the
dispenser.
This means that there is still air in the line.
Reverse Osmosis Water Supply
IMPORTANT:
The pressure of the water supply coming out of a
reverse osmosis system going to the water inlet
valve of the refrigerator needs to be between 35
and 120 psi (241 and 827 kPa).
If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is
connected to your cold water supply, the water
pressure to the reverse osmosis system needs to
be a minimum of 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa.) If
the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system
is less than 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa):
Check to see whether the sediment filter in the
reverse osmosis system is blocked. Replace
the filter if necessary.
Allow the storage tank on the reverse osmosis
system to refill after heavy usage.
If your refrigerator has a water filter, it may
further reduce the water pressure when used
in conjunction with a reverse osmosis system.
Remove the water filter.
If you have questions about your water pressure,
call a licensed, qualified plumber.
