FEATURES
Energy-saving fridge/freezer
• Power consumption is kept to a minimum by
distributing cool air separately to the refrigera-
tor and freezer.
Faster cooling times
• The quick freezing function allow you to freeze
food more quickly.
High humidity for fresher food
• You can keep food, fruit and vegetables fresh
for longer because your refrigerator supplies
highly humidified cold air. This can be up to
four or five times more effective than a normal
refrigerator.
Door alarm
• When the refrigerator door is left open for
more than two minutes, a musical alarm is
automatically triggered. This feature helps you
save electricity and preserve stored foods.
Abundant supply of ice and cold water
• The ice and water dispenser provides ice and
cold water at any time.
Extra refrigerating compartment
• You do not have to open the main door to
access frequently used food in the extra
refrigerating compartment. This saves time
and money.

What is the H. M. Cycle (High-efficiency,
Multi-evaporator Cycle)?
•
The refrigerator and freezer have separate
evaporators. Given this independent
system, the refrigerator and freezer are
cooled individually as required and are,
therefore, more efficient.
Food odour from the refrigerator does not
affect food in the freezer because the two
are not connected.

PREPARING THE APPLIANCE
Once you have performed the following steps, your fridge/freezer should be fully operational.
If not, check the power supply and electricity source. If you have any doubts or problems, con-
tact your SAMSUNG service centre.
Place the shelves and containers which
were removed for transport in their
appropriate positions (refer to pages
10 to 12).
Set the temperature control to the cold-
est temperature and wait for one hour.
The freezer should get slightly chilled
and the motor should run smoothly
producing a soft humming noise.
Clean the fridge/freezer and acces-
sories to remove any dust that accu-
mulated during packing and shipping
(refer to page 13).
Once the refrigerator temperature is
sufficiently low, you can store food in
the appliance.
It takes a few hours after starting the
fridge/freezer to reach the appropriate
temperature.
When the refrigerator is plugged in, the
interior light should come on each time
you open the refrigerator door.
Your fridge/freezer is operated by a compressor
which switchs “on and off” to maintain the internal
temperature. When the compressor is new, it
requires a running-in period, which can last for up
to five months. During this period, it may be slightly
noisy. This is quite normal and does not represent
a fault.
WARNING
EARTHING THE APPLIANCE
The appliance must be earthed.
You must earth the fridge/freezer to prevent any power leakage or electric shock caused by cur-
rent leakage from the appliance.
•
Never use gas pipes, telephone lines or other potential lightning rods as earths.
You are using a power plug without earth.
•
Connect one end of the earthing wire (yellow/green or
green) to the earthing screw and the other end to a steel or
copper pipe, such as a water pipe.

1) For the ice maker to operate automatically, water pressure of 1.4 - 4.5 kgf/cm
2
is
required. (It should be possible to fill a disposable paper cup (approximately 180 cc)
within 10 seconds.)
2) The water tube can be cut to the required length.
Make sure that the tube is not bent.
3) Place the water tube away from any sources of heat.
4) The purifier is for filtering only. It does not sterilize or destroy any micro-organisms.
5) If the fridge/freezer is installed in the area with low water pressure (below
1.4 kgf/cm
2
), you may purchase and install a booster pump to compensate for the
low pressure.
6) The service life of the purifier depends on the condition of the usage, but we recom-
mend that you change it every six months.
You should, therefore, install it easily in a location.
7)
To supply water of the storage tank inside the fridge, press the cold water button for
about two or three minutes until cold water runs from the cold water outlet.
8) To avoid any leakage, seal every joined area using sealing tape.
9) The water tube should be connected to the cold water tap.

running out and any residual matter
that built up during manufacturing has
been removed.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1. Connect the water pipe with coupler and tap.
1) Close the main water tap.
2) Connect coupler “A” to the tap.
3) Every join should be protected with sealing tape.

2) When you press the test button, the ice cube container is filled with water from the
water supply tap for the ice maker. Check the amount of water (see the illustration
below). If there is too little water, the ice cubes will be small inacceptably. This is not
a problem with the fridge/freezer but with the water pressure in the pipe and
occurs frequently. When this problem occurs, use the following method to check the
volume of water supplied.
8. Complete the installation of the water dis-
penser line.
1) Switch on the fridge/freezer and press the
lever on the left of the dispenser until water
runs out through the water tube (approximate-
ly two to three minutes).
(Press it until all air has been empty.)
2) At this time, check for any possible leakages
at the joins in the water tube.
After securing the water tube, move the
fridge/freezer to the required location.
Once the fridge/freezer is in position, move it
as little as possible.
