• Warnings and Important Safety Instructions in this manual do not
cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur.
It is your responsibility to use common sense, caution, and care
when installing, maintaining, and operating your appliance.
• Because these following operating instructions cover various
models, the characteristics of your refrigerator may differ slightly
from those described in this manual and not all warning signs may
be applicable. If you have any questions or concerns, contact your
nearest service center or nd help and information online at www.
samsung.com.
• R-600a or R-134a is used as a refrigerant. Check the compressor
label on the rear of the appliance or the rating label inside the
fridge to see which refrigerant is used for your appliance. When
this product contains ammable gas (Refrigerant R-600a), contact
your local authority in regard to safe disposal of this product.
• In order to avoid the creation of a ammable gas-air mixture
if a leak in the refrigerating circuit occurs, the size of the room
in which the appliance may be sited depends on the amount of
refrigerant used.
• Never start up an appliance showing any signs of damage. If in
doubt, consult your dealer. The room must be 1 m3in size for
every 8 g of R-600a refrigerant inside the appliance.
The amount of refrigerant in your particular appliance is shown on
the identication plate inside the appliance.

ventilate the room immediately.
- Failing to do so may result in re or explosion.
• To avoid contamination of food, please respect the following
instructions:

Safety information
• To get the best energy efciency of this product, please leave all
shelves, drawers and baskets on their original position.
How to minimize the energy consumption
• 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 (radiator, for example).
- Not to block any vents or grilles is recommended for energy
efciency.
- 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 time for which the door is open, the less ice will
form in the freezer.
- Clean the rear of the refrigerator regularly. Dust increases
energy consumption.
- Do not set temperature colder than necessary.
- Ensure sufcient air exhaust at the refrigerator base and at the
back wall of the refrigerator. Do not cover air vent openings.
- Allow clearance to the right, left, back and top when installing.
This will help reduce power consumption and keep your energy
bills lower.
