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 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.

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 lter 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 lled
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 lled. To do this, press the
water dispenser lever until the water runs from the
water outlet.
WaterLineinstallationKitsareincluded.You can
nd it in one of the freezer drawers.

Connecting to the water supply line
1. rst, shut off the main water supply line.
2. locate the nearest cold, drinking water line.
3.followtheWaterlineInstallationInstructionsinthe
installation kit.
4. After connecting the water supply to the water
lter, turn your main water supply back on and
dispense about 1l to clear and prime the water
lter.
Connecting the water line to the
refrigerator
1. Remove the dust cap from the water line on the
rear of the unit and t a compression nut from the
install kit.
2. Remove the water pipe from the install kit and t a
compression nut to one end.
3. Join the two pipes together using the compression
joint from the install kit ensuring that the joint is
water tight.
4. Join the other end of the install pipe to the main
water supply and turn on the water to check for
leaks.
Only connect the water line to a drinkable water
source.
Ifyouhavetorepairordisassemblethewater
line, cut off 6.5mm of the plastic tubing to
make sure you get a snug, leak-free connection.
Beforebeingused,theleakageinthese
places should be examined
CAUTION
The water line must be connected
tothecoldwaterpipe.Ifitisconnected

Removing any residual matter inside
the water supply line after installing
lter.
1. Turn ON the main water supply & turn OFF the
valve to the water supply line.
2. Run water through the dispenser until the water
runs clear (approx. 1L). This will clean the water
supply system and remove air from the lines.
3. Additional ushing may be required in some
households.
4. Open the refrigerator door and make sure there
are no water leaks coming from the water lter.
A newly installed water lter cartridge may cause
water to briey spurt from the water dispenser.
Thisisduetoairgettingintotheline.Itshould

1. Lift up the icemaker cover and gently pull out.
2.WhenyoupresstheTestbuttonfor3seconds,

of water is correct (see the illustration below).
