  • If the valve is closed, open the valve.

Cooling Off Mode (Demo Mode/Shop Mode)

NOTE

  • Cooling Off mode (also called Shop mode or Demo mode) is designed for use by retailers when they display refrigerators on the shop floor. In Cooling Off mode, the refrigerator’s fan motor and lights work normally, but the compressors do not run, and the refrigerator and freezer do not get cold.

Using the ice and cold water dispenser

Using the water dispenser

Press the Water button on the control panel.

Place your glass under the water outlet, and then push against the dispenser pad until you hear a click.

Make sure the glass is in line with the dispenser to prevent the water from splashing out.

To get colder water

  • The dispensed water is cool, not icy cold.
  • When you want colder water, dispense ice into your glass first before filling it with water to prevent water from splashing out.

Using the ice dispenser

Press the Ice button to select the type of ice you want.

Place your glass under the ice outlet, and then push gently against the dispenser pad.

Make sure the glass is in line with the dispenser to prevent the ice from bouncing out.

When cubed ice is selected after you have dispensed crushed ice, a small amount of residual crushed ice might be produced.

Storing food

Here are some of the customized compartments we have created to keep your food fresher, longer.

Important : To prevent odors from penetrating the ice in the ice maker, store all food securely in wraps or containers that are as airtight as possible.

Cleaning the refrigerator

Caring for your Samsung Side-By-Side Refrigerator prolongs the life of your appliance and helps keep it odor and germ-free.

Cleaning the Interior

Clean the inside walls and accessories with a mild detergent, and then wipe dry with a soft cloth.

You can remove the drawers and shelves for a more thorough cleaning.

Just make sure to dry them before putting them back into place.

Cleaning the Exterior

Wipe the digital panel and display panel with a clean, soft cloth.

Spray water onto the cleaning cloth instead of spraying directly on the surface of the refrigerator. This helps ensure an even distribution of moisture on the surface.

The doors, handles, and cabinet surfaces should be cleaned with a mild detergent, and then wiped dry with a soft cloth.

To keep your appliance looking its best, the exterior should be polished once or twice a year.

WARNING: Do not use Benzene, Thinner, or Clorox (bleach)TM for cleaning. They may damage the surface of the appliance and can create a risk of fire.

Cleaning the rubber door seals

If the rubber door seals are dirty, the doors may not close properly, and the refrigerator will not operate efficiently.

Keep the door seals free of grit or grime by cleaning the doors with a mild detergent and damp cloth.

Wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth.

CAUTION:

  • Do not spray the refrigerator with water while it is plugged in, as it may cause an electric shock.
  • Do not clean the refrigerator with benzene, thinner, or car detergent as there is a risk of fire.

Changing the LED type lighting

CAUTION

  • Do not disassemble or replace the LED type lighting.
  • To change the LED type lighting, contact a Samsung service center.

Changing the water filter

NOTE

  • Replace the water filter when the water filter indicator turns red.
    The water filter is located on the bottom right side of the refrigerator.
  • To make changing the water filter easier, you may want to shut off the water supply, and then drain any water remaining in the water line by pressing the Water button and then pressing a glass against the water dispenser pad.
  1. Turn the water filter 90 ̊ counterclockwise.
  2. Pull the water filter out of the filter housing.
  3. Insert a new water filter into the filter housing.
  4. Turn the new water filter 90° clockwise.
  5. Press and hold the Water button for 3 seconds after changing the filter to reset the filter indicator. Confirm the indicator turns blue. When you replace the water filter, some water may leak from the water filter housing. Make sure to wipe up any leakage that may have occurred.

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

  1. Turn ON the main water supply.
  2. Press the Water button on the control panel. Place a cup or glass under the water outlet, and then push the cup or glass against the dispenser pad until you hear a “click”.
  3. Flush 3 gallons of water through the filter. (Flush approximately 6 minutes.) This will clean the water supply system and remove air from the lines.
  4. Additional flushing may be required in some households.
  5. Open the refrigerator door and make sure there are no water leaks coming from the water filter.

NOTE

  • A newly installed water filter cartridge may cause water to briefly spurt from the water dispenser.
  • This is the result of air getting into the line.
  • It poses no problem to the operation of the refrigerator.

Problem

Solution

The refrigerator does not work at all or it does not chill sufficiently.

  • Confirm 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?
  • Check if the Cooling Off Mode is on. If the Freezer/Fridge temperature indicator is moving, refer to page 40 to cancel the Cooling Off Mode.

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?

You hear unusual noise or sounds.

  • Confirm that the refrigerator is level and stable.
  • If the refrigerator’s water supply line is not connected and water is not being supplied to the refrigerator, the refrigerator will make unusual noises if the ice maker is on or if you push the water dispenser lever. To stop the noises, press the Ice button for at least 3 seconds until the Ice Off icon lights indicating that the ice maker is off.
  • You hear a ticking sound from inside the refrigerator.
    This is normal and occurs because various parts in the refrigerator’s interior contract or expand in response to temperature changes.

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 clumped in 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, fish) 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 sufficient space between the foods stored for efficient 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.
