cause an electric shock or fire.
• Do not place this refrigerator in direct sunlight
or expose it to the heat from stoves, room
heaters, or other appliances.
• Do not plug several appliances into the same
multiple power strip.
The refrigerator should always be plugged into
its own individual electrical outlet which has a
voltage rating that matches the voltage listed
on the refrigerator's rating plate.
This provides the best performance and
also prevents overloading of house wiring
circuits, which could cause a fire hazard from
overheated wires.

I'_ ADDITIONAL TIPS FOR
PROPER USAGE
• Inthe event of a power failure, call the local
office of your Electricity Company and ask how
long it is going to last.
Most power failures that are corrected in an
hour or two will not affect your refrigerator
temperatures. However, you should minimize
the number of door openings while the power
is off.
Should the power failure last more than 24
hours, remove and discard all frozen food.
• If a key is provided with refrigerator, the keys
should be kept out of the reach of children and
not be kept in the vicinity of the appliance.
• The appliance might not operate consistently
(frozen contents can thaw or temperatures
can become too warm in the frozen food
compartment) when 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.
• Do not store food which goes bad easily at low
temperature, such as bananas and melons.
,, 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.
But Ifyou 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.
• Any increase in the temperature of frozen food
during defrosting can shorten its storage life.
• 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).
Never block any vents or grilles on the
appliance.
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 appliance 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.
Provide sufficient clearance to the right, left,
back, and top for air circulation when installing
the refrigerator. This will help reduce power
consumption and keep your energy bills lower.

HOW TO ADJUST THE DOOR
HEIGHT
If one door is lower than the other:
• The refrigerator door height can be adjusted
using the adjustment nuts located at the
bottom of each door,
Raising the door too high can cause the door to
interfere with the hinge cover when it is opened
or closed,
1. Open the door that needs to be adjusted and
loosen the clamping nut ( A ) at the bottom of
the door by turning it clockwise (_ ) using
the spanner included in the product package,
(Raise the lower of the two doors first,)
2. Adjust the height of the door by turning the
adjustment nut ( B ) counterclockwise ( _ )
with a spanner.
(Turn it counterclockwise ( _ ) to increase
the height of the door and clockwise ( _ ) to
decrease it.)
Open the door and adjust it from the inside,
3. Once the doors are level, turn the clamping nut
( A ) counterclockwise (_ ) to tighten it.
®Adjusting the level when the refrigerator
is empty can result in the refrigerator

iNSTALLiNG THE WATER
DISPENSER LiNE
A water dispenser is 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 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
water runs from the water dispenser.
®Water line installation kits are available at
extra cost from your dealer.
We recommend using a water supply kit
that contains copper tubing.
The Samsung refrigerator warranty does
not cover water line installation.
We strongly recommend you have a
plumber or authorized installer install the
water line.
Connecting to the water supply line
1. First, shut off the main water supply line and
turn the ice-maker off.
The refrigerator should NOT be plugged in
at this point.
2. Locate the nearest cold water drinking water
line.
3. Install the pipe clamp and shut off valve.
4. Connect the water line installation kit to the
shut off valve.

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.

Connect the household water line to the
assembled compression fitting.
Ifyou are using copper tubing, slip the
compression nut ( B ) (not supplied) and
ferrule (not supplied) on the copper tubing (not
supplied) as shown.
Ifyou are using plastic tubing ( B ), insert the
molded end (Bulb) of the plastic tubing ( B ) into
the compression fitting.
Z_ CAUTION
Do not use plastic tubing ( B ) without the molded
end (Bulb).
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 leaks
inside the refrigerator, around the water filter,
and in any connection areas.
Ifyou find water drops or leaks, turn off the
main water supply.
Ifthe leaks are in the connection areas, check
the connections and, if necessary, tighten.
Ifthere are leaks in the refrigerator, check
the water filter and confirm it is in the locked
position.
Turn on the water supply and check for leaks
again.
4. Plug in the refrigerator.
5. Flush 3 gallons of water through the filter before
drinking or using the water from the refrigerator.
(Flush approximately 6 minutes.)
This will clean the water supply system and
remove air from the lines.
To flush, press the Water button, and then 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.
[_ dditional flushing may be required in
some households.
6. Open the refrigerator door and make sure there
are no water leaks coming from the water filter.
+ fter 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 ice maker
makes to ensure all impurities have been
removed from the water line.
+ Only connect the water line to a drinkable water
source.
+ Ifyou have to repair or disassemble the water
line, cut off 1/4" of the plastic tubing to make
sure you get a snug, leak-free connection.
+ You can test the water line quickly using a
paper cup.
Under normal conditions, the water dispenser
can fill a 5.75 oz. (170 cc) cup in about 10
seconds.
