- 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 time for which
the door is open, the less ice
will form in the freezer.
- Clean the rear of the
refrigerator regularly.
Dust increases energy
consumption.
- Do not set temperature
colder than necessary.
- Ensure suffi cient air exhaust
at the refrigerator base
and at the back wall of the
refrigerator.
Do not cover air vent
openings.
- Allow clearance to the right,
left, back and top when
installing.
This will help reduce power
consumption and keep your
energy bills lower.
- For the most effi cient use
of energy, please keep the
all inner fi ttings such as
baskets, drawers, shelves
on the position supplied by
manufacturer.

LEVELLING THE REFRIGERATOR
Now that the doors are back on the refrigerator, you
will want to make sure the refrigerator is level so you
can then make fi nal adjustments. If the refrigerator
is not level, it will not be possible to get the doors
perfectly even.
The front of the refrigerator is also adjustable.
When the Freezer door is lower than
the fridge
Insert a fl at-blade screwdriver into a notch on the
Leg, turn it clockwise or counter clockwise to level
the freezer.
When the Freezer door is higher than
the fridge
Insert a fl at-blade screwdriver into a notch on the
Leg, turn it clockwise or counter clockwise to level
the fridge.
Refer to the next section for the best way to
make very minor adjustments to the doors.
MAKING MINOR ADJUSTMENTS
TO THE DOORS
Remember, a level refrigerator is necessary for getting
the doors perfectly even. If you need help, review the
previous section on levelling the refrigerator.
In the process for adjusting both the doors is the
same. Open the doors and adjust them, one at a
time, as follows:
1. Unscrew the
nut 1 from the
lower hinge until
it reaches the
upper end of the
bolt 2.
When you release the nut 1, make sure that
you use the Allen wrench provided 3 to loosen
the bolt 2 in a counter-clockwise direction.
You should then be able to unscrew the nut 1
with your fi ngers.
2. Adjust the
height difference
between the
doors by turning
the bolt 2
clockwise
or counter clockwise .
When you turn clockwise , the door will
move up.
3. After adjusting
the doors, turn
the nut 1
clockwise
until it reaches
the lower end
of the bolt, then
tighten the bolt again with the wrench 3 to fi x
the nut in place 1.
If you do not secure the nut fi rmly, the bolt may
release.

CHECKING THE WATER
DISPENSER LINE (OPTIONAL)
A water dispenser is just one of the helpful features
on your new Samsung refrigerator. To help promote
better health, the Samsung water fi lter removes
unwanted particles from your water. However, it
does not sterilize or destroy microorganisms. You
will need to purchase a water purifying system to do
that. In order for the icemaker to operate properly,
water pressure of 138 ~862 kPa is required. Under
normal conditions, a 170 cc paper cup can be fi lled
in 10 seconds. If the refrigerator is installed in an area
with low water pressure (below 138 kPa), you can
install a booster pump to compensate for the low
pressure. Make sure the water storage tank inside
the refrigerator is properly fi lled. To do this, press the
water dispenser lever until the water runs from the
water outlet. When using the Water Dispenser, Slight
noises can be generated from supplying water.
Water Line installation Kits are included. You can
fi nd it in one of the freezer drawers.
USING THE ICE MAKER (OPTIONAL)
(RS77*, RS54H*, RS76*)
To Remove the Ice Bucket
-
Hold the handle as shown in fi gure1.
-
Slightly pull up the bottom part.
-
Take out the ice bucket slowly.
To Refi t The Ice Bucket
- Assemble it in the reverse
order of disassembly.
- Push the bucket in fi rmly until
you hear a clicking sound.
- When the bucket does not fi t
into its place, turn the gear
handle on its back by 90
degrees and reinstall it again
as shown in fi gure 2.
Normal Operation
-
Any sounds you hear when the ice
maker dumps ice into the bucket
are part of normal operation.
- Not dispensing ice for long
periods may cause ice
clumps in the ice bucket.
Remove the remaining ice
and empty the bucket.
- When ice does not come out,
Check for any ice stuck in the
chute and remove it.
-
The fi rst batch of ice cubes may
be small due to air in the pipe
after connection, any air will be
purged during normal use.
- When ICE OFF blinks on the display panel,
reinsert the bucket and/or make sure it’s
installed properly.
- When the door is open, the Ice and water
dispenser do not work.
- If you close the door hard, it may cause
water spilling over the ice maker.
- To prevent dropping the ice bucket, use
both hands when removing it.
- To prevent injury, be sure to clean up any
ice or water that may have dropped on
the fl oor.
-
Do not let children hang on the ice dispenser
or on the bucket.
They may get hurt.
- Be sure not to put your hand or any object
into the ice chute.
It may cause personal injury or damage
mechanical parts.
Check the amount of water supplied
to the ice tray.
(RS7547*/ RS755* / RS756* / RS757*)
1. Lift up the icemaker cover and gently pull out.
2. When you press the Test button for 3 seconds,
the ice cube container is fi lled with water from the
water supply tap. Check to make sure the amount
of water is correct (see the illustration below).
If the water level is too low, the ice cubes will be
small. This is a water pressure problem from with
in the main water pipes, not the refrigerator.

month indicator sticker on the fi lter as shown.
2. Place a sticker on the fi lter that dates six months
in the future. For example, if you are replacing the
water fi lter in March, put the “SEP” (September)
sticker on the fi lter to remind you to replace in

troubleshooting
PROBLEM SOLUTION
The refrigerator
does not work at all
or it does not chill
suffi ciently.
• Check that the power plug is properly connected.
• Is the temperature control on the display panel set to the correct
temperature? Try setting it to a lower temperature.
• Is the refrigerator in direct sunlight or located too near a heat source?
• Is the back of the refrigerator too close to the wall and therefore keeping air
from circulating?
The food in the fridge is
frozen.
• Is the temperature control on the display panel set to the correct
temperature? Try setting it to a warmer temperature.
• Is the temperature in the room very low?
• Did you store the food with a high water content in the coldest part of the
fridge? Try moving those items into the body of the fridge instead of keeping
them in the CoolSelect Zone™ drawer.
You hear unusual
noises or sounds.
• Check that the refrigerator is level and stable.
• Is the back of the refrigerator too close to the wall and therefore keeping air
from circulating?
• Was anything dropped behind or under the refrigerator?
• A “ticking” sound is heard from inside the refrigerator. This is normal and
occurs because various accessories are contracting or expanding in relation
to the temperature of the refrigerator interior.
The front corners of
the appliance are hot
and condensation is
occurring.
• Some heat is normal as anti-condensators are installed in the front corners
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 is not dispensing. • 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 open?
• Did you manually stop the ice making function? Make sure Ice Type is set to
Cubed or Crushed.
• Is there any ice blocked within the ice maker bucket?
• 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 the refrigerant coolant liquid
circulating through the refrigerator.
There is a bad smell in
the refrigerator.
• Has a food item spoiled?
• Make sure that strong smelling food (for example, fi sh) is wrapped so that it
is airtight.
• Clean out your freezer periodically and throw away any spoiled or suspect
food.
Frost forms on the
walls of the freezer.
• Is the air vent blocked? Remove any obstructions so air can circulate freely.
• Allow suffi cient space between the foods stored for effi cient air circulation.
• Is the freezer door closed properly?
Water dispenser is not
functioning.
• Is the water line connected and the shut-off valve open?
• 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 refrigerator temperature is too low?
Try selecting a warmer setting on the main display panel.
