Setting up your French Door Refrigerator

GETTING READY TO INSTALL THE REFRIGERATOR

Selecting the best location for the refrigerator

Choose:

  • A location with easy access to a water supply.
  • A location without direct exposure to sunlight.
  • A location with level (or nearly level) flooring.
  • A location with enough space for the refrigerator doors to open easily.
  • A location that allows sufficient space to the right, left, back, and top for air circulation. If the refrigerator does not have enough space, it can cause the bad influence to refrigeration efficiency and power consumption.
  • A location that allows you to move the refrigerator easily if it needs maintenance or service.
  • Do not install the refrigerator in locations where the temperature is over 110 °F (43 °C) or below 50 °F (10 °C )

CAUTION: When moving your refrigerator To prevent floor damage, be sure the front adjusting legs are in the up position (above the floor). Refer to “Leveling the Refrigerator” on page 14.

Flooring

For proper installation, you must place this refrigerator on a level, hard surface that is the same height as the rest of the floor. This surface should be strong enough to support a fully loaded refrigerator. To protect the finish of the flooring, cut a large section of the cardboard carton and place it under the refrigerator where you are working. When moving the refrigerator, you need to pull and push it straight forwards or back. Do not wiggle it from side to side.

REQUIRED TOOLS

Required Tools (Not provided)

You need the following tools to complete the installation of your refrigerator:

REMOVING THE REFRIGERATOR DOORS

For some installations, you need to remove the fridge and freezer drawers so you can move the refrigerator to its final location. Do not remove the doors/drawer if you don’t need to. If you do not need to remove the refrigerator doors, go to “Leveling the Refrigerator” on page 14. If you need to remove the doors. continue below. Before removing the door/drawer, make sure you read the following items:

With the door opened

1. Remove 3 screws holding down the TOP TABLE ( 1 ) and separate the connected wires.

2. Disconnect two connectors ( 2 ) on the left side door. To remove the water coupler from the hinge, twist and pull it from the hinge. Remove the water line ( 3 ) while pressing the marked part ( 4 ) of the water line coupler.

3. Pull and remove the hinge lever ( 5 ). Remove the ground screw (6) attached to the upper left door hinges with a Philips screwdriver (+). Remove the upper left and right door hinges (7)

4. Lift the door straight up to remove.

5. Remove the screw ( 8 ) attached to the lower left and right door hinges with a philips screwdriver (+). Remove the 2 hex head bolts ( 9 ) attached to the lower left and right door hinges with an allen wrench (3/16”). Remove the lower left and right door hinges ( 10 ).

REATTACHING THE REFRIGERATOR DOORS

To reattach the fridge doors after you have moved the fridge to its final location, assemble the parts in reverse order.

1. The Water Line must be fully inserted into the center of the transparent coupler (Type A) or the Guide Lines (Type B) to prevent water leakage from the dispenser.

2. Insert the clip in the install pack, and then confirm that it holds the line firmly.

DISASSEMBLE THE FREEZER DRAWER

1. Take out the upper drawer by lifting it up.

2. Take out the lower basket ( 2 ) by lifting the basket up from the rail system.

3. Press the fixing hook of the rail system

4. Holding the top of the Freezer Drawer, pull it out all the way, and then remove it from the rail system.

CAUTION :

  • Be careful not to scratch or dent the sliding rail by letting it strike the floor.
  • Make sure that you mount the freezer basket in the right position when removing / installing the freezer door. Failing to do so may result in the door not opening or closing properly
  • Putting too much food into the freezer drawers can prevent the freezer from closing completely and can cause frost build-up

RE-ASSEMBLE THE FREEZER DRAWER

To reattach the drawer after you have moved the fridge to its fi nal location, assemble the parts in reverse order.

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 counterclockwise to level the refrigerator. (You turn the lever clockwise to lower the refrigerator and counterclockwise to raise it.)

CAUTION :

  • Both control levers must be touching the floor to avoid possible personal injury or property damage because of tipping.

  • The refrigerator on an uneven floor may tilt. To prevent this, adjust the leg so that it contacts the floor.

MAKING MINOR ADJUSTMENTS BETWEEN DOORS

Remember, a leveled refrigerator is necessary for getting the doors perfectly even. If you need help, review the previous section on leveling the refrigerator.

Note : The left door is fixed. To make minor adjustments between doors, adjust only the right door.

1. Pull out the freezer drawer ( 1 ),then you can see the lower hinge ( 2 ).

2. Insert a philips screwdriver (+) ( 3 ) into the shaft ( 4 ) of the lower hinge.

3. Adjust the height by turning a philips screwdriver (+) ( 3 ) clockwise ) or counterclockwise

Note : When you turn a philips screwdriver (+) counterclockwise, the door will move up

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. New hose-sets supplied with the appliance are to be used and that old hose-sets should not be reused.

Note : 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.

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.

3. 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.

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 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

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.

CHANGING THE WATER FILTER

WARNING :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. 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 ).

Note :

  • 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 ).

3. Insert the new filter into the filter case ( 4 ).

4. Push the filter, and then turn it clockwise until it locks.

5. Touch and hold the “Alarm / hold 3 sec for Filter Reset” button for about 3 seconds to reset the water filter indicator. The indicator’s red light turns off.

6. If you turned off the water supply, turn it back on.

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.

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 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.

CONTROLLING THE TEMPERATURE

Basic temperature of Freezer and fridge 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 and Fridge compartments are too high or low, adjust the temperature manually. Controlling the Freezer temperature

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. Fahrenheit : 0 °F ➞ -1 °F ➞ -2 °F ➞ -3 °F ➞ -4 °F ➞ -5 °F ➞ -6 °F ➞ -7 °F ➞ -8 °F ➞ 5 °F ➞ 4 °F ➞ 3 °F ➞ 2 °F ➞ 1 °F ➞ 0 °F. Centigrade : -18 °C ➞ -19 °C ➞ -20 °C ➞ -21 °C ➞ -22 °C ➞ -23 °C ➞ -15 °C ➞ -16 °C ➞ -17 °C ➞ -18 °C.

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. Fahrenheit : 37 °F ➞ 36 °F ➞ 35 °F ➞ 34 °F ➞ 44 °F ➞ 43 °F ➞ 42 °F ➞ 41 °F ➞ 40 °F ➞ 39 °F ➞ 38 °F ➞ 37 °F. Centigrade : 3 °C ➞ 2 °C ➞ 1 °C ➞ 7 °C ➞ 6 °C ➞ 5 °C ➞ 4 °C ➞ 3 °C. 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.

USING THE COLD WATER DISPENSER

Push the appropriate ice type button to select what you want dispensed.

Using the ice Dispenser

Place a glass underneath the ice dispenser and push gently against the dispenser lever with your glass. Make sure the glass is in line with the dispenser to prevent the ice from bouncing out.

  • To select water, press the water button on the display, and then press the dispenser lever.
  • To select Ice, press the ICE type button of your choice on the display, and then press the dispenser lever.
  • If you have selected cubed ice, when you press the lever, the dispenser may dispense a small amount of crushed ice first.
  • If ice doesn’t come out, pull out the ice bucket and press the test button located on the right side of ice maker

  • Do not press the test button continuously when the tray is filled with ice or water. Water may overflow or ice may jam the bucket.
  • When you press the Test button, you will hear the refrigerator chime (ding-dong). When the chime sounds, release the Test button.
  • The chime sounds automatically again to let you know the ice maker is working well.
  • Replace the ice bucket.

Ice Making

To fill the ice bucket to maximum capacity after installation, follow these steps:

1. Allow your refrigerator to operate and cool down for 24 hours (or 1 full day). - Waiting 24 hours will allow your ice maker to cool properly.

2. Dispense 4 to 6 ice cubes into a glass.

3. After 8, and then 16 hours, dispense a full glass of ice.

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

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 bucket does not fit, turn the helix 90 degree (see the last illustration on the right, below) and try again.

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.

Water clouding phenomenon

Note:

  • 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.

FOOD STORAGE TIPS

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 refrigerator too close to the wall, preventing proper ventilation? 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
  • 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?
  • Check if the filter is properly installed. If it is not properly installed, the ice making function may not work.
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 your freezer periodically and throw away any spoiled or suspicious 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 stored foods for efficient air circulation.
  • Is the freezer drawer closed properly?
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 both sides of fridge door’s central part.
  • Condensation or water drops may form if the humidity is too high while the refrigerator is operating.
  • If condensation or water drops appears on both sides of 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 18.)
