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 (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 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 sufficient 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.
safety information
•For the most efficient use of energy, please keep the all
inner fittings such as baskets, drawers, shelves on the
position supplied by manufacturer.

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
•Select a location with easy access to the water supply.
•Select a location without direct exposure to sunlight.
•Select a location with level (or nearly level) flooring.
•Select a location with enough space for the refrigerator doors to open easily.
•Allow sufficient space to install the refrigerator on a flat surface.
- If your refrigerator is not level, the internal cooling system may not work correctly.
- Overall space required in use. Refer to drawing and dimension as below.
•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).
