LEVELING THE REFRIGERATOR AND ADJUSTING THE HEIGHT AND GAP OF THE DOORS

How to level the refrigerator

If the front of the appliance is slightly higher than the rear, the door can be opened and closed more easily.

Setting up the refrigerator on an uneven surface will cause the refrigerator to lean.

If the freezer side is lower:

• Insert a flathead screwdriver into the height leveler located at the bottom back of the freezer door and turn it in the direction of the arrow until it is level.

If the refrigerator side is lower:

• Insert a flathead screwdriver into the height leveler located at the bottom back of the refrigerator door and turn in the direction of the arrow until it is level.

• Raise the front of the refrigerator so that the doors close by themselves.

Adjusting the levelers so that the back of the refrigerator is much higher than the front of the refrigerator can make it difficult to open the doors.

• If the back of the refrigerator is not level, put an appropriately sized thin piece of wood or tile where the refrigerator leg you want to raise will be set, and then secure it in place using tape. Slide the refrigerator into its spot, with the back leg you want to raise on the tile or wood. Then, adjust the level of the front legs.

• When pushing the refrigerator in, be careful not to damage the floor.

HOW TO ADJUST THE DOOR HEIGHT

If one door is lower than the other:

• The refrigerator door height can be adjusted using the adjustment nuts located at the bottom of each door.

• Raising the door too high can cause the door to interfere with the hinge cover when it is opened or closed.

1. Open the door that needs to be adjusted and loosen the clamping nut ( A ) at the bottom of the door by turning it clockwise ( ) using the spanner included in the product package. (Raise the lower of the two doors first.)

2. Adjust the height of the door by turning the adjustment nut ( B ) counterclockwise

with a spanner.

(Turn it counterclockwise

to increase the height of the door and clockwise

to decrease it.)

- Open the door and adjust it from the inside.

3. Once the doors are level, turn the clamping nut ( A ) counterclockwise

to tighten it.

Adjusting the level when the refrigerator is empty can result in the refrigerator becoming uneven again once items have been placed inside.

If this occurs, adjust the level again.

HOW TO ADJUST THE GAP BETWEEN THE DOORS

If the gap between the refrigerator door and the freezer door is uneven:

• Use the gap adjustor located at the top of the refrigerator door (right side).

• Excessive force can cause the adjustor bolt to break.

1. Remove the refrigerator door's hinge cover.

- Detach the hinge cover with the door open and then close the door once the hinge cover has been detached.

2. Adjust the gap using a 4 mm Allen wrench (not included).

3. Rotate the bolt clockwise

to widen

the gap. Rotate it counterclockwise

to narrow the gap.

Adjust until the gap between the refrigerator door and the freezer door appears even.

CAUTION

When arranging the cables, take caution not to tear or peel off the cable coating.

HOW TO ADJUST THE GAP BETWEEN THE REFRIGERATOR DOOR AND THE REFRIGERATOR BODY

If the gap between the refrigerator door and the refrigerator is uneven :

• Use the adjustors located at the top edge of the refrigerator, inside each door.

1. Open the door where the gap with the refrigerator is narrower and then turn the adjustor counterclockwise (

) until the gap is even.

2. Once the gap between the door and the refrigerator has been adjusted, turn the adjustor nut clockwise (

) to lock the adjustor in place.

INSTALLING THE WATER DISPENSER LINE_

A water dispenser is one of the helpful features on your new Samsung Refrigerator.

To help promote better health, the Samsung 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 ~ 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 water runs from the water dispenser.

Water line installation kits are available at extra cost from your dealer.

We recommend using a water supply kit that contains copper tubing.

The Samsung refrigerator warranty does not cover water line installation.

We strongly recommend you have a plumber or authorized installer install the water line.

Connecting to the water supply line

1. First, shut off the main water supply line and turn the ice-maker off.

The refrigerator should NOT be plugged in I*—J at this point.

2. Locate the nearest cold water drinking water line.

3. Install the pipe clamp and shut off valve.

4. Connect the water line installation kit to the shut off valve.

Connecting the water supply line to the refrigerator

There are several items that you need to purchase to complete this connection.

You may find these items sold as a kit at your local hardware store.

1. Connect the household water line to the assembled compression fitting.

- If you are using copper tubing, slip the compression nut ( B ) (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.

CAUTION

Do not use plastic tubing ( B ) without the molded end (Bulb).

2. Tighten the compression nut ( B ) onto the compression fitting.

Do not over-tighten the compression nut ( B ).

3. Turn the water on and check for any leaks inside the refrigerator, around the water filter, and in any connection areas.

If you find water drops or leaks, turn off the main water supply.

If the leaks are in the connection areas, check the connections and, if necessary, tighten.

If there are leaks in the refrigerator, check the water filter and confirm it is in the locked position.

Turn on the water supply and check for leaks again.

4. Plug in the refrigerator.

5. Flush 1 gallons of water through the filter before drinking or using the water from the refrigerator. (Flush approximately 6 minutes.)

This will clean the water supply system and remove air from the lines.

To flush, press the Water button, and then 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.

Additional flushing may be required in some households.

6. Open the refrigerator door and make sure there are no water leaks coming from the water filter.

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 ice maker 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.

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.

5. Once installation is complete, press the dispenser lever to check if the water or the ice is properly dispensed.

6. Make sure the front side of the refrigerator is

0.6 degree higher than its rear side.

If condensation or water drops appear on both sides of the fridge door's central part, 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 22.)

CONTROLLING THE TEMPERATURE

Basic temperature of Freezer and Refrigerator Compartments_

The basic and recommended temperatures of the Freezer and Fridge compartments are 0 °F and 37 °F (or -18 °C and 3 °C) respectively.

If the temperature of the Freezer or 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 5 °F (or between -23 °C and -15 °C) to suit your particular needs.

Press the Freezer button repeatedly until the desired temperature is shown in the temperature display.

The temperature will change by 1 °F (or 1 °C) with each press. See below.

Keep in mind that foods such as ice cream may/ melt at 4 °F (or -15.5 °C).

The temperature display will move sequentially from -8 °F to 5 °F (or from -23 °C to -15 °C).

Controlling the Fridge temperature

The fridge temperature can be set between 34 °F and 44 °F (or between 1 °C and 7 °C) to suit your particular needs.

Press the Fridge button repeatedly until the desired temperature is shown in the temperature display. The temperature will change by 1 °F (or 1 °C) with each press. See below.

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 reflected in the digital display.

• The temperature of the Freezer or Fridge may rise when you open the doors too frequently, or if a large amount of warm or hot food is placed inside.

• This may cause the digital display to blink. Once the Freezer and Fridge temperatures return to their normal set temperatures, the blinking will stop.

• If the blinking continues, you may need to “reset” the Refrigerator.

Try unplugging the appliance, waiting for around 10 minutes, and then plugging the power cord back in.

USING THE ICE AND COLD WATER DISPENSERS

CLEANING THE REFRIGERATOR

WARNING

Do not use benzene, thinner, Clorox, or car detergent to clean the refrigerator.

They can damage the surface of the appliance and may cause a fire.

Do not spray the refrigerator with water while it is plugged in.

This can cause an electric shock.

To clean the refrigerator, follow these steps:

To Clean the Refrigerator

1. Unplug the power cord of the refrigerator.

2. Slightly dampen a soft, lint-free-free cloth or paper towel with water.

Do not use any kind of detergent to clean the refrigerator.

Detergent can discolor or damage the refrigerator.

3. Wipe the inside and outside of the refrigerator until it is clean and dry.

4. Plug the power cord of the refrigerator back in.

CHANGING THE INTERIOR LIGHTS

Freezer / Fridge LED Lamp

• If the LED Lamp Cover is stained with foreign substances, the LED lamp may not look bright. Wipe the surface cover with a clean, dry cloth to return the light to full brightness.

CAUTION

Do not disassemble or replace the LED type lighting yourself.

To replace the LED lights, contact a Samsung service center or your authorized Samsung dealer.

If you attempt to replace the LED lamps yourself, you risk subjecting yourself to an electric shock or serious personal injury.

TO IMPROVE THE COOLING PERFORMANCE

Do not block the cold air outlets with food. If the cold air outlets are blocked, cold air cannot penetrate the entire compartment and will be unable to freeze the food efficiently, resulting in a degraded cooling performance.

CHANGING THE WATER FILTER

WARNING

To reduce risk of water damage to your property DO NOT use generic brands of water filers 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.

How to Change the Water Filter

The “Filter Indicator” light lets you know when it is time to change your water filter cartridge.

To give you preparation time to get a new filter, the red light will come 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 fridge.

To change the water filter, follow these steps:

1. Turn the water filter 90° counterclockwise.

2. Pull the water filter from the filter housing.

3. Insert the new water filter inside the filter housing.

4. Turn the new water filter 90° clockwise.

5. Press the “Lighting/hold 3 sec” button (

) about 3 seconds to reset the water filter.

The color of indicator changes from red to light off.

A newly installed water filter cartridge may cause water to briefly spurt from the water dispenser.

This is due to air getting into the line.

It should pose no problem to operation.

CAUTION

When you replace the water filter, water can drip from the bottom front of the refrigerator.

Make sure to clean up any drips or spills after you have changed the filter.

Removing residual matter inside the water supply line after installing a new filter

1. Press the Water button, and then push the Dispenser Lever with a cup or glass.

2. Flush 1 gallon of water through the filter, one cup or glass at a time. (Flush approximately 6 minutes.)

This will clean the water supply system and remove air from the lines.

- Additional flushing may be required in some households.

3. Open the refrigerator door and make sure there are no water leaks coming from the water filter.

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.

Ordering replacement filters

To order more water filter cartridges, contact your authorized Samsung dealer.
