Installation

Getting ready to install the refrigerator

Congratulations on the purchase of your Samsung Side-By-Side Refrigerator. We hope you will enjoy the many state-of-the-art features and efficiencies that this new appliance has to offer.

Selecting the best location for the refrigerator

• Solid, level surface without carpeting or flooring that may obstruct ventilation
• Away from direct sunlight
• Adequate room for opening and closing the door
• Away from a heat source
• Room for maintenance and servicing
• Temperature range: between 5 °C and 43 °C

Effective temperature range

The refrigerator is designed to operate normally in the temperature range specified by its class rating.

NOTE

• The cooling performance and power consumption of the refrigerator may be affected by the ambient temperature, the door-opening frequency, and the location of the refrigerator. We recommend adjusting the temperature settings as appropriate.

Clearance

Allow sufficient space to install the refrigerator on a flat surface.

Overall space required in use. Refer to drawing and dimension as below.

NOTE

• Allow clearance to the right, left, back and top when installing. This will help reduce power consumption and keep your energy bills lower.
• Do not install the refrigerator where the temperature will go below 50°F (10°C).
• Make sure you disconnect the water supply line BEFORE removing the freezer door.

Removing the refrigerator doors

If your entrance won’t allow the refrigerator to pass easily through it, you can remove the doors.

The actual image of your refrigerator may differ, depending on the model and the country.

1. Removing the Front Leg Cover

First, open both the freezer and refrigerator doors, and then take off the front leg cover by turning the three screws counter-clockwise.

Separating the Water Supply Line from the Refrigerator

1. Remove the water line by pressing the coupler 1 and pulling the water line 2 away

NOTE

Do not cut the water line. Gently separate it from the coupler.

2. Removing the freezer door

A few things to mention first.

• Make sure that you lift the door straight up so the hinges are not bent or broken.
• Be careful not to pinch the water tubing and wire harness on the door.
• Place doors on a protected surface to prevent scratching or damage.

1.With the Freezer door closed, remove the upper hinge cover 1 using a screwdriver, and then disconnect the wires by gently pulling them apart 2 .

2.Remove hinge screws 3 and the ground screw 4 by turning counterclockwise, and take off the upper hinge 5 . Be careful that the door may fall on you as you are removing it

3.Next, remove the door from the lower hinge 6 by carefully lifting the door straight up 7 .

CAUTION

Be careful not to pinch the water tubing and wire harness on the door.

Removing the Fridge Door

1. With the door closed, remove the upper hinge cover 1 using a screwdriver.

2.Remove hinge screws 2 and the ground screw 3 by turning counterclockwise, and take off the upper hinge 4 . Be careful that the door may fall on you as you are removing it.

3.Remove the door from the lower hinge 5 by lifting the door straight up 6 .

Reattaching the refrigerator doors

Once you have safely placed your refrigerator where you plan for it to stay, it is time to put the doors back on.

Reattaching the Freezer Door

1.Insert the upper hinge shaft 3 into the hole on the corner of the freezer door 4 . Make sure the hinge is level between the upper hinge hole 5 and the hole of the cabinet 6 and reattach the hinge screws 7 and ground screw 8 by turning in a clockwise direction.

2.Reconnect the wires.

3 Place the front part of the upper hinge cover 9 on the front of the upper hinge 10 and reattach with the screw.

Leveling the refrigerator

Now that the doors are back on the refrigerator, you will want to make sure the refrigerator is level so you can then make final adjustments. If the refrigerator is not level, it will not be possible to get the doors perfectly even.

When the Freezer door is lower than the fridge

Insert a flat-blade screwdriver into a notch on the Leg, turn it clockwise or counter clockwise to level the freezer.

When the Freezer door is higher than the fridge

Insert a flat-blade screwdriver into a notch on the Leg, turn it clockwise or counter clockwise to level the fridge.

NOTE

• Refer to the next section for the best way to make very minor adjustments to the doors.
• The legs of product are unconnected when it is out of factory. Make sure to adjust the legs to touch the floor, and make the product level before using.
• For safety reasons, adjust the front side a little higher than the rear side.

Making minor adjustments to the doors

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

In the case of the process to correct the imbalance is the same. Open the doors and adjust them, one at a time, as follows:

1.Unscrew the nut 1 from the lower hinge until it reaches the upper end of the bolt 2

2.Adjust the height difference between the doors by turning the bolt 2 clockwise or counter clockwise

3.After adjusting the doors, turn the nut 1 clockwise until it reaches the lower end of the bolt, then tighten the bolt again with the wrench 3 to fix the nut in place 1 .

Checking the water dispenser line (optional)

• A water dispenser is just one of the helpful features on your new Samsung refrigerator. To help promote better health, the Samsung water filter removes unwanted particles from your water. However, it does not sterilize or destroy microorganisms. You will need to purchase a water purifying system to do that.
• In order for the icemaker to operate properly, water pressure of 138 ~862 Kpa is required. Under normal conditions, a 170 cc paper cup can be filled in 10 seconds.
• If the refrigerator is installed in an area with low water pressure (below 138 Kpa), you can install a booster pump to compensate for the low pressure.
• 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.
