LEVELING THE REFRIGERATOR
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.
How to adjust the level
1. Open the freezer drawer and remove the lower
basket.
2. Insert a flat-blade screwdriver (-) into a notch on
the left control lever, and then turn it counter-
clockwise to level the refrigerator.
(You turn the lever clockwise to lower the
refrigerator and counterclockwise to raise it.)

the refrigerator.
The thickness of RING is 0.04” (1 mm).
Keep the Rings out of the reach of children
and make sure that children do not play
with them or put them into their mouths.
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 the water 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 ~ 862 kPa) is
required.
If the refrigerator is installed in an area with low
water pressure (below 20 psi), 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.
CAUTION
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 a ¼” compression nut.
The new hose-sets supplied with the
appliance are to be used and that old
hose-sets should not be reused.
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.

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. (170 cc)
cup in about 10 seconds.

CHANGING THE WATER FILTER
To reduce risk of 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.
(Red)
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.
1. Shut off the water supply. Then, turn the water
filter (1) about 1/4 turn, counter-clockwise.
2. Pull the water filter (1) from the case filter (2).
(2)
(1)
• 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).
WARNING
(2)
(3)
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.

OPERATING
Removing any residual matter inside the
water supply line after installing the water
filter.
1. Turn ON the water supply if you turned it off
when you installed the water filter.
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 120psi. (241 and 827kPa)
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 60psi. (276 to 414kPa)
If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis
system is less than 40 to 60psi (276 to 414kPa):
• Check if 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.

of ice.
• To clean the ice bin/bucket, wash with a
mild detergent, rinse well, and then dry it
thoroughly.
Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners or
solvents.
• When you select Cubed Ice after using the
Crushed Ice mode, a small amount of residual
crushed ice might be produced.
If There is a Power Failure
If a power failure occurs, ice cubes may melt,
and then freeze together when the power comes
back on, preventing the dispenser from working
properly.
To prevent this problem, after a power failure, pull
out the ice bucket and discard the residual ice or
water.
After you dump the ice from the ice bucket, you
should press the dispenser lever once with the
‘Water’ or ‘Ice Type’ function ON.
The ice maker will make new ice faster after you
return the ice bucket to the refrigerator.
CAUTION
If you use all the ice at once, you must
repeat Steps 2 and 3 under Ice Making.
However, only wait 8 hours before
dispensing the first 4 to 6 ice cubes.
This will replenish the ice cubes and
ensure maximum ice production.
Using the ice off Function
When you select the Ice Off mode, remove all ice
cubes from the bucket.
If you leave the ice cubes in the bucket, the ice
cubes may clump together, making it difficult to
remove them.
To remove the ice bucket safely and avoid injury,
hold the bottom of the bucket with one hand and
the side of the bucket with the other.
Then, lift up on the ice bucket, and pull it straight
out.
To put the ice bucket back in, push it firmly straight
back.
If the ice bucket is not pushed firmly into
place, ice in the bucket can melt.
If the bucket does not fit, turn the helix 90 degree
(see the last illustration on the right, below) and try
again.
• Use only the ice maker provided with
the refrigerator. The water supply to
this refrigerator must only be installed/
connected by a suitably qualified person.
Connect to a potable water supply only.
• To operate the ice maker properly, water
pressure of 20 ~ 125 psi is required.

OPERATING
Going on vacation...
If you are going on a long vacation or business trip
and won’t use the water or ice dispensers for a
long time:
• Close the water valve. Otherwise, water leakage
may occur.
• Remove all food and ice in the ice bucket.
• Unplug the refrigerator.
• Wipe excess moisture from inside and leave the
doors open. Otherwise, odor and mold may
develop.
Ice Maker Do’s and Don’ts
• Do not put your fingers, hands or any other
unsuitable objects in the chute or ice-maker
bucket.
- It may result in personal injury or material
damage.
• Never put your finger or any other objects in the
dispenser opening.
- It may cause injury.
• Do not try to disassemble the ice maker.
• Do not wash or spray the ice bucket with water
while it is in the refrigerator.
Remove it to clean it.
When you insert the Ice maker tray, be
sure that the tray is well centered at the
entrance.
Otherwise, the tray may get stuck.
CAUTION
Water clouding phenomenon
All water provided to the refrigerator flows
through the core filter which is an alkaline
water filter.
In the filtering process, the pressure of
the water that has flowed out of the filter
is increased, and the water becomes
saturated with oxygen and nitrogen.
When this water flows out into the air, the
pressure plummets and the oxygen and
nitrogen get supersaturated, which results
in gas bubbles.
The water may temporarily look misty or
cloudy due to these oxygen bubbles.
After a few seconds, the water will look
clear.
Please wait 1 second before removing
the cup after dispensing water to prevent
spills.
Do not pull out the lever dispenser after
dispensing ice or water.
It comes back automatically.
Ice is made in cubes.
When you select “Crushed”, the ice maker
grinds the ice cubes into crushed ice.

Troubleshooting
PROBLEM SOLUTION
The refrigerator
does not work at
all or it does not
chill sufficiently.
• Check if 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?
If so, it may not be able to cool sufficiently. Install it in a location that is out of direct
sunlight and not near a heat source.
• Is the back of the appliance too close to the wall?
If so, it may not be able to cool sufficiently. Keep it an appropriate distance from the
wall.
• Is there too much food inside so that the food is blocking the outlet vent?
To keep the refrigerator at a suitable temperature, do not fill the refrigerator with too
much food.
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 the fridge instead of keeping them in
the colder areas or bins.
You hear unusual
noise or sounds.
• Check if 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?
If you hear a “ticking” sound from inside the refrigerator, this is normal.
It occurs because various parts contract or expand in response to temperature
changes in the refrigerator interior.
• If it sounds as if something is hitting something else inside the refrigerator, this is
normal. The sound is caused by the compressor operating at high capacity.
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.
Ice Maker is not
producing ice.
• Did you wait for 12 hours after installing the water supply line before making ice?
It may take longer to make ice if it is not sufficiently cool, such as when first installed.
• 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 the freezer periodically and throw away any spoiled food.
When cleaning the inside of the fridge, store food elsewhere and unplug the
appliance. Wipe with a dry dishcloth after 2-3 hours and then circulate air inside the
refrigerator.

TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM SOLUTION
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?
If the freezer drawer is not completely closed or is blocked, humidity from outside may
enter and cause severe frost to form.
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.
• Check if the filter is properly installed. If it is not properly installed, the water dispenser
may not work.
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 and the left part of the
door.
Condensation or
water drops forms
on vertical mullion
and surroundings,
etc.
• Condensation or water drops may form if the humidity is too high while the refrigerator
is operating.
• If condensation or water drops appears on vertical mullion and surroundings, etc. ,
turn the Energy Saver mode off after removing the condensation.
(See the explanation of the Energy Saver button in “Using the Control Panel” on page
28.)
