Additional tips for proper usage
• In the event of a power failure, call the local oce of your electric
company and ask how long the failure is going to last.
- Most power failures that are corrected in an hour or two will not
aect your refrigerator temperatures. However, you should minimize
the number of door openings while the power is o.
- Should the power failure last more than 24 hours, remove and
discard all frozen food.
• The refrigerator might not operate consistently (frozen contents can
thaw or temperatures can become too warm in the frozen food
compartment) if sited for an extended period of time in a location
where ambient air temperatures are constantly below the temperatures
for which the appliance is designed.
• In case of particular foods, keeping it under refrigeration can have a
bad eect on preservation due to its properties.
• Your appliance is frost free, which means there is no need to manually
defrost your appliance. This will be carried out automatically.
• Temperature rise during defrosting complies with ISO requirements. If
you want to prevent an undue rise in the temperature of frozen food
while the appliance defrosts, wrap the frozen food in several layers of
newspaper.
• Do not re-freeze frozen foods that have thawed completely.

Saving Energy Tips
• Install the appliance in a cool, dry room with adequate ventilation.
Ensure that it is not exposed to direct sunlight and never put it near a
direct source of heat (a radiator, for example).
• Not to block any vents and grilles is recommended for energy
eciency.
• Allow warm food to cool down before placing it in the appliance.
• Put frozen food in the refrigerator to thaw. You can then use the low
temperatures of the frozen products to cool food in the refrigerator.
• Do not keep the door of the refrigerator open for too long when putting
food in or taking food out. The shorter the time the door is open, the
less frost build-up you’ll have in the freezer.
• It is recommended to install the refrigerator with clearance to the back
and sides. This will help reduce power consumption and keep your
energy bills lower.
• For the most ecient use of energy, please keep the all inner fittings
such as baskets, drawers, shelves on the position supplied by
manufacturer.
This appliance is intended to be used in household and similar
applications such as
• sta kitchen areas in shops, oces and other working environments;

Cleaning the refrigerator
Caring for your Samsung Refrigerator prolongs the life of your appliance and helps keep it odor and germ
free.
WARNING
• Do not use benzene, thinner, home/car detergent, or Clorox™ to clean the refrigerator.
They may damage the surface of the refrigerator and cause a fire.
• Do not spray water onto the refrigerator. This may cause electric shock.
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
drawers and shelves before putting them back into place.
Cleaning the Exterior
Wipe the display panel with damp, clean, soft cloth. Do not spray
water directly on the surface of the Refrigerator.
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.
Display panel
Cleaning the Rubber door seals
If the rubber door seals are dirty, the doors may not close properly,
and the Refrigerator will not operate eciently. 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.

vacuum behind the appliance once or twice a year.
CAUTION
• Do not remove the back cover. Doing so may cause an electric
shock.
• Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm
water to clean the refrigerator.
• Do not use abrasive or harsh cleansers such as window sprays,
scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, muriatic acid, cleaning
waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches, or cleansers
containing petroleum products on exterior surfaces (doors and
cabinet), plastic parts, door and interior liners, and gaskets.
- These can scratch or damage the material.

they are cold. Glass shelves and covers may break if exposed
to sudden temperature changes or impacts such as bumping or
dropping.

50_ Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting
PROBLEM SOLUTION
The Refrigerator does not
work at all or it does not chill
suciently.
• Check 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 near a heat source?
• Is the back of the refrigerator so close to the wall that air cannot
keep circulating? (Refer to page 23 for the best location.)
The food in the
Refrigerator is frozen.
• Is the temperature control on the display set to the correct
temperature?
Try setting it to a warmer temperature.
• Is the temperature in the room too low?
• Did you store the food too close to the air vent at the back of the
refrigerator? Move the food away from the air vent.
You hear unusual noise or
sounds.
• Check that the refrigerator is level and stable.
• Is the back of the refrigerator too close to the wall and therefore
keeping air from circulating?
• Was anything dropped behind or under the refrigerator?
• A “ticking” sound is heard from inside the refrigerator. It is normal
and occurs because various accessories are contracting or
expanding according to the temperature of the refrigerator interior.
• When the automatic ice maker is on, ice is made in the ice
container. After the ice is made, the container inverts and the ice
falls into the storage compartment and water flows through the
water valve. These operations cause noise at regular intervals, but
that noise is normal.
The front corners and
horizontal hinged section of
the appliance are hot and
condensation is occurring.
• Some heat is normal as anti-condensators are installed in the
horizontal 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.
• Did you wait for 12 hours after installation of the water supply line
before making ice?
• Is the water line connected and the shut-o valve opened?
• Did you manually stop the ice making function?
• Is the freezer temperature too warm? Try setting the freezer
temperature lower.
You hear water bubbling in
the Refrigerator.
• This is normal. The bubbling comes from the refrigerator coolant
liquid circulating through the refrigerator.
