STEP 7 Connect 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 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 outlet.

NOTE

• Water line installation kits are available at extra cost from your retailer. We recommend using a water line installation kit that contains copper tubing and a 1/4" (6 mm) compression nut.

  • 1. Shut off the main water source.
  • 2. Insert the pipe clamp (B) and the shutoff valve (C) into the cold water line (A).
  • 3. Connect the water line installation kit (A) to the shutoff valve (B).

Connect the water supply line to the refrigerator

There are several items you must purchase to complete this connection. You may find these items sold as a kit at your local hardware store.

A. Refrigerator

B. Household water supply line

C. Water Line: must be kept straight.

01 Compression Nut (1/4") (Assembled)

02 Ferrule (Not supplied)

03 Copper tubing (Not supplied)

04 Plastic Tubing (Assembled)

05 Compression Fitting (Assembled)

06 Molded end (Bulb)

07 Compression nut (B) (1/4") (Not supplied)

08 Plastic Tubing (A) (Not supplied)

NOTE If you have to relocate the refrigerator after connecting the water line (C), make sure the joined section of the water line is straight.

CAUTION Do not mount the water filter on any part of the refrigerator. This may damage the refrigerator.

  • 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 (A), insert the molded end (Bulb) of the plastic tubing (A) into the compression fitting.

CAUTION

• If you use plastic tubing (A), do not use it without the molded end (Bulb).

• Leaving the water line disconnected may cause the water valve to produce a buzzing sound over time. If this is the case, make sure that the ice making function is turned “OFF” and do not attempt to use the water dispenser.

  • 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 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, 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 ice maker makes to ensure all impurities have been removed from the water line.

NOTE Only connect the water line to a potable 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 3/4 oz. (170 cc) cup in about 10 seconds.

STEP 8 Initial settings

By completing the following steps, the refrigerator should be fully functioning.

CAUTION Before installing the refrigerator, make sure to remove the Cover Interlock (1) from the top of the fridge door. Otherwise, injuries may be caused by the ice crushing blade.

  • 1. Plug the power cord into the wall socket to turn the refrigerator on.
  • 2. Open the door, and check if the interior light lights up.
  • 3. Set the temperature to the coldest setting, and wait for about an hour. Then, the freezer will be slightly chilled, and the motor should be running smoothly.
  • 4. Wait until the refrigerator reaches the set temperature. Now the refrigerator is ready for use.

STEP 9 Final check

When installation is complete, confirm that:

• The refrigerator is plugged into an electrical outlet and grounded properly.

• The refrigerator is installed on a flat, level surface with a reasonable clearance from walls and cabinets.

• The refrigerator is level and is sitting firmly on the floor.

SMART GRID Function (Demand Response)

When the refrigerator operates in SMART GRID (Demand Response) mode, the Energy Management Refrigerator function can control energy usage or delay the operation of some functions to save money when energy prices or demand are the highest.

NOTE

• You can deactivate the SMART GRID (Demand Response) function at any time using the Peak Demand Off function.

• To use the SMART GRID (Demand Response) function, you need a separate contract with your electric utility company.

In addition, to use the Smart Grid (Demand Response) function, you must register for the service with your electric company. The company must have an EMS (Energy Management System) that supports SEP (Smart Energy profile).

Using the SMART GRID (Demand Response) Function

This feature monitors energy prices and demand information from your utility company and sends notifications to the refrigerator to run high energy consuming tasks during offpeak times when electricity costs and demand are lower. If the refrigerator receives a control signal from the utility company, the refrigerator will display the DAL (L3) ~ TALR (L4) levels on the refrigerator display and control the power consumption according to the level.

[Exception condition] The DAL and TALR control signals from a utility company work as long as product performance is maintained. If the refrigerator receives the SMART GRID (Demand Response) signal (DAL or TALR), the refrigerator will operate in Delay Appliance Load (Display:L3) or Temporary Appliance Load Reduction (Display:L4) mode

• Delay Appliance Load (L3): The refrigerator responds to a DAL signal by providing a moderate load reduction for the duration of the delay period. This function controls functions that consume a lot of energy such as adjusting the Cooling system, running the defrost cycle, and making ice.

- When the refrigerator operates in DAL (L3) mode, “L3” is displayed on the refrigerator display.

- DAL mode is automatically deactivated after it lasts for the amount of time stipulated by the DAL signal (max. 4.5 hours) or when the Peak Demand Off key is pressed.

• Temporary Appliance Load Reduction (L4): The refrigerator responds to a TALR signal by aggressively reducing the load for a short time period. This function reduces energy consumption by stopping the compressor and controlling the functions that consume a lot of energy such as the defrost cycle and making ice.

- When the refrigerator operates in TALR (L4) mode, “L4” is displayed on the refrigerator display.

- TALR (L4) mode is automatically deactivated after it lasts for the received duration (max. 15 minutes), or when the Peak Demand Off key is pressed. The mode is immediately deactivated and the refrigerator returns to the normal state when the door is opened or closed, or the dispenser is used.

To check the MAC address

NOTE

• The dispenser will stop dispensing if you keep pushing the dispenser lever for about 1 minute. To dispense more water, release and push the lever again.

• Make sure the glass is in line with the dispenser to prevent the dispensed water from spilling out.

• If you do not use the water dispenser for 2-3 days, the dispensed water may have an abnormal smell or taste. This is not a system failure. Discard the first 1-2 glasses of water.

Ice maker

The refrigerator has a built-in ice maker that automatically dispenses ice so that you can enjoy filtered water with cubed or crushed ice. Ice making After you have installed your refrigerator and plugged it in, follow these instructions to ensure proper ice making and to keep the ice bucket full of ice:

  • 1. Let the refrigerator operate for at least 24 hours to ensure optimal performance.
  • 2. Dispense the first 4 to 6 ice cubes into a glass.
  • 3. Wait another 8 hours and dispense another 4 to 6 ice cubes.
  • 4. Then, wait another 16 hours and dispense the first glass-full of ice.

NOTE

• If you consume all the ice at once, you must wait 8 hours before dispensing the first 4 to 6 cubes. This ensures that the ice bucket is filled with ice properly.

• Ice cubes generated rapidly may look white, which is normal.

Diagnosis

If ice does not dispense, first check the ice maker.

1. Press Test on the side of the ice maker. You will hear a chime (ding-dong) when you press the button.

2. You will hear another chime if the ice maker is operating properly.

CAUTION

• If the ice making chime rings repeatedly, contact your waterline installer or a local Samsung service center.

• Do not press Test repeatedly after the ice tray is filled with ice or water. Water may overflow or ice may jam.

• Do not put food in the ice bucket. The frozen food may damage the ice maker, especially when you open or close the door.

• When the refrigerator recovers power after a power failure, the ice bucket may contain a mix of melted and jammed ice cubes, which can prevent the ice maker from working properly. To prevent this, make sure to empty the ice bucket so the ice bucket can refill with fresh, loose ice cubes.

• Do not put fingers or any objects into the dispenser outlet or the ice maker. This can cause physical injury or property damage.

• When reinserting the ice maker tray, make sure that the tray is properly centered at the entrance. Otherwise, the tray can get stuck.

If You Turn the Ice Maker Off

If you press and hold Ice Maker for more than 3 seconds to turn the ice maker off, make sure to remove all ice cubes from the ice bucket. Remaining ice cubes may clump together, making it difficult to remove them. To remove the ice bucket, see the Ice bucket (applicable models only) section on page 65.

NOTE

• Removal of the ice bucket does not affect the thermal and mechanical performance of the refrigerator.

Water clouding

Water supplied to the refrigerator flows through a core alkaline filter. During this filtering process, the water pressure of the water increases and the water becomes saturated with oxygen and nitrogen. This causes the water to look misty or cloudy temporarily when dispensed. This is normal and the water will look clear after a few seconds.

FlexZone™ divider

You can change the divider position. To do this, unlock the divider by turning the divider dial counter clockwise. Then, move the width and height bars as appropriate. When done, turn the dial clockwise to lock the divider.

NOTE If the divider lock does not function, wipe the bars to remove moisture on them.

Maintenance

Handling and care

Ice bucket (applicable models only)

If you do not dispense ice for an extended period, ice may form clumps inside the bucket. If this happens, remove and empty the ice bucket.

  • 1. To remove the ice bucket, gently lift it up, and then pull it out slowly while holding the bottom of the bucket with one hand and the side with the other hand.
  • 2. Empty the bucket.
  • 3. When done, put the bucket back into position. If the bucket does not fit in, turn the helix screw 90 degrees, and then try again.
