safety information _05

• Your appliance is frost free, which means there is

no need to manually defrost your appliance, as

this will be carried out automatically.

• Temperature rising during the defrost can comply

with ISO requirement. But If you want to prevent

an undue rise in the temperature of the frozen

food while defrosting the appliance, please wrap

the frozen food in several layers of paper such as

newspaper.

• Any increase in temperature of frozen food during

defrosting can shorten its storage life.

• Contains fluorinated greenhouse gases covered

INSTALLING THE WATER

DISPENSER LINE

Connecting the water line to the

refrigerator

1. Remove the cap from water line on the unit and

insert compression nut to the water line on the

unit after disassembling from provided water line.

2. Connect both water line from the unit and water

line in the kit

3. Tighten the compression nut onto the

compression ﬁ tting. Be careful no gap between

two items.

4. Turn water on and check for any leakage.

CHECKING THE WATER

DISPENSER LINE

A water dispenser is just one of the helpful features

on your new Samsung refrigerator. To help promote

better health, the Samsung water ﬁ 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 ﬁ 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 ﬁ lled. To do this, press the

water dispenser lever until the water runs from the

water outlet.

Water Line installation Kits are included with

unit. You can ﬁ nd it in freezer(or fridge) drawer.

Parts for water line Installation

Connecting to the water supply line

1. First, shut off the main water supply line.

2. Locate the nearest cold, drinking water line.

Using the Water Dispenser

Press the Water button. Place your cup the water

outlet and push gently against the dispenser pad.

Make sure the glass is in line with the dispenser to

prevent the water from splashing out.

To get cooler water

- The dispensed water is cool, not

icy cold

- When you want colder water with

ice, dispense ice to your drink

glass ﬁ rst before ﬁ lling it with water

to prevent water from splashing

out.

Using the Ice Dispenser

Press the Ice Type button to select the type of ice

you want.

Place your cup the ice outlet and push gently

against the dispenser pad. Make sure the glass is

in line with the dispenser to prevent the ice from

bouncing out.

When Cubed Ice is selected after using the Crushed

Ice feature, a small amount of residual crushed ice

might be produced.

• Do not put your ﬁ ngers, hands or any

other unsuitable objects in the chute or

ice-maker bucket.

- It may result in personal injury or material damage.

• Use only the ice maker provided with the

refrigerator.

• The water supply to this

refrigerator must only be

installed/connected by a

suitably qualiﬁ ed person

and connect to a potable

water supply only.

• In order to operate the

ice maker properly, water

pressure of 138 ~ 862 kPa

is required.

The temperature display will move sequentially from

-14°C and -25ºC. When the display reaches -14ºC,

it will begin again at -25ºC.

Five seconds after the new temperature is set the

display will again show the actual current freezer

temperature. However, this number will change as

the Freezer adjusts to the new temperature.

Controlling the Fridge temperature

The refrigerator temperature can be set between

7ºC and 1ºC to suit your particular needs. Press

the Fridge button repeatedly until the desired

temperature is shown in the temperature display.

The temperature control process for the Fridge

works just like the Freezer process.

Press the Fridge button to set your desired

temperature. After a few seconds, the Fridge will

begin tracking towards the newly set temperature.

This will be reﬂ ected in the digital display.

The temperature of the freezer or the refrigerator

may rise from opening the doors too frequently, or

if a large amount of warm or hot food is placed in

either side.

This may cause the digital display to blink. Once

the freezer and refrigerator return to their normal set

temperatures the blinking will stop.

If the blinking continues, you may need to “reset” the

refrigerator. Try unplugging the appliance, wait about

10 minutes and then plug back in.

USING THE ICE AND COLD

WATER DISPENSER

When Ice Off blinks on the display panel, reinsert

the bucket and/or make sure it’s installed properly.

USING THE COOLSELECT

ZONE™ DRAWER (OPTIONAL)

The CoolSelect Zone™ Drawer is designed to make

your busy life just a little bit easier.

Soft Freeze

When “Soft Freeze” is selected on the CoolSelect

Zone™ Drawer, the temperature on the drawer

digital panel displays -5°C, regardless of the overall

temperature setting of the refrigerator.

This feature helps keep meat and ﬁ sh

fresh for longer.

Chill

When “Chill” is selected, the temperature

of the CoolSelect Zone™ Drawer is

kept at -1°C, regardless of the overall

temperature setting of the refrigerator.

This feature also helps keep meat or ﬁ sh

fresh for longer.

Thaw

When “Thaw” is selected, warm and cold

air is alternately blown into the CoolSelect Zone™

Drawer. Depending on the weight of the frozen food,

you can select a 4 hrs, 6 hrs, 10 hrs, and 12 hrs

thawing time.

When “Thaw” ends, food is in a half-frozen state,

making it easy to cut for cooking. In addition, when

“Thaw” ends, the CoolSelect Zone™ Drawer returns

to the original “Chill” condition. To cancel this

function mid-cycle, just press any button besides

Thaw.

Here are the approximate thawing times of meat

and ﬁ sh by weight (and based on a 25.4mm (1in.)

thickness). This chart represents the total weight of

food in the CoolSelect Zone™ Drawer.

THAW TIME WEIGHT

4hours 363g (0.8Ib)

6hours 590g (1.3Ib)

10hours 771g (1.7Ib)

12hours 1000g (2.2Ib)

• If you have a long vacation or business trip

and won’t use water or ice dispensers,

close the water valve.

- Otherwise, water leakage may occur.

• When you have not used the Ice maker for a while,

or you have opened the Freezer door frequently,

the Ice may stick together. If this has occurred,

empty the ice container or break up the ice with a

wood kitchen tool.

Do not use sharp items such as knives or forks.

• When the bucket is removed, there may still be

some residual ice in the ice maker that will be

produced.

For more space, you can store food with

Guard FRE-UPP instead

of the ice bucket (

).

If you remove the ice

bucket, ICE OFF will blink

on the display panel.

To get more space,

you can remove

freezer drawers and

locate the ‘SHELF

FRE-BOTTOM’ on the

bottom of the freezer,

since it does not affect

thermal and mechanical

characteristics.

A declared storage volume of frozen food

storage compartment is calculated with these

drawers removed.

The door guards in the freezer of this

model are the two star sections except the

top guard, so the temperature in two star

sections are slightly higher than other freezer

compartment.

4. Once you have completed this process, hold the

Ice Off button simultaneously for 3 seconds to

reset the ﬁ lter schedule.

5. Lastly, run about 3L of water through water

dispenser and throw away. Make sure that water

ﬂ ows clearly again before drinking.

6. See installing the water ﬁ lter instructions page 11.

A newly installed water ﬁ lter cartridge may cause

water to brieﬂ y spurt from the water dispenser. This

is due to air getting into the line. It should pose no

problem to operation.

Ordering replacement ﬁ lters

To order more water ﬁ lter cartridges, contact your

authorized Samsung dealer.

USING THE DOORS

The refrigerator doors are equipped with a door

opening and closing feature that ensures that the

doors close all the way and are securely sealed.

After opening beyond a certain point, the door will

“catch” and remain open. When the door is ajar

ahead of the catch that allows it to stay open, it will

close automatically.

CHANGING THE INTERIOR

LIGHTS

Changing the LED Type Lighting

Do not disassemble or replace the LED type

Lighting.

To change the LED Type Lighting contact Samsung

service center or your authorized Samsung dealer.

CHANGING THE WATER FILTER

(OPTIONAL)

To reduce risk of water damage to your

property DO NOT use generic brands of water

ﬁ lers in your SAMSUNG Refrigerator.

USE ONLY SAMSUNG BRAND WATER FILTERS.

SAMSUNG will not be legally responsible for any

damage, including, but not limited to property

damage caused by water leakage from use of a

generic water ﬁ lter.

SAMSUNG Refrigerators are designed to work

ONLY WITH SAMSUNG Water Filter.

The “Filter Indicator” light lets you know when it is

time to change your water ﬁ lter cartridge.

To give you preparation time to get a new ﬁ lter, the

red light will come on just before the capacity of the

current ﬁ lter runs out. Changing the ﬁ lter on time

provides you with the freshest, cleanest water from

your fridge.

1. Remove the water ﬁ lter from the box and

put a month indicator sticker on the ﬁ lter

as shown. Place a sticker on the ﬁ lter

that dates six months in the future. For

example, if you are replacing the water

ﬁ lter in March, put the “SEP” (September)

sticker on the ﬁ lter to remind you to

replace in September. Normal ﬁ lter life is

about every 6 months.

2. Remove the new ﬁ lter’s protective cap and remove

the old ﬁ lter.

3. Position and insert the new ﬁ lter into the ﬁ lter

housing. Slowly turn the water ﬁ lter clockwise to

align with the printing mark on the cover, locking

the ﬁ lter in position. Make sure to align the water

ﬁ lter label mark with the center of cover ﬁ lter

PROBLEM SOLUTION

The refrigerator does not

work at all or it does not

chill sufﬁ ciently.

• Check that the power plug is properly connected.

• Is the temperature control on the display panel set to the correct

temperature? Try setting it to a lower temperature.

• Is the refrigerator in direct sunlight or located too near a heat source?

• Is the back of the refrigerator too close to the wall and therefore keeping

air from circulating?

The food in the fridge is

frozen.

• Is the temperature control on the display panel set to the correct

temperature? Try setting it to a warmer temperature.

• Is the temperature in the room very low?

• Did you store the food with a high water content in the coldest part of

the fridge? Try moving those items into the body of the fridge instead of

keeping them in the CoolSelect Zone™ drawer.

You hear unusual noises

or sounds.

• Check that the refrigerator is level and stable.

• Is the back of the refrigerator too close to the wall and therefore keeping

air from circulating?

• Was anything dropped behind or under the refrigerator?

• A “ticking” sound is heard from inside the refrigerator. This is normal and

occurs because various accessories are contracting or expanding in

relation to the temperature of the refrigerator interior.

The front corners of

the appliance are hot

and condensation is

occurring.

• Some heat is normal as anti-condensators are installed in the front

corners of the refrigerator to prevent condensation.

• Is the refrigerator door ajar? Condensation can occur when you leave the

door open for a long time.

Ice is not dispensing. • Did you wait for 12 hours after installation of the water supply line before

making ice?

• Is the water line connected and the shut-off valve open?

• Did you manually stop the ice making function? Make sure Ice Type is set

to Cubed or Crushed.

• Is there any ice blocked within the ice maker bucket?

• Is the freezer temperature too warm? Try setting the freezer temperature

lower.

You can hear water

bubbling in the

refrigerator.

• This is normal. The bubbling comes from the refrigerant coolant liquid

circulating through the refrigerator.

There is a bad smell in the

refrigerator.

• Has a food item spoiled?

• Make sure that strong smelling food (for example, ﬁ sh) is wrapped so that

it is airtight.

• Clean out your freezer periodically and throw away any spoiled or

suspect food.

Frost forms on the walls

of the freezer.

• Is the air vent blocked? Remove any obstructions so air can circulate

freely.

• Allow sufﬁ cient space between the foods stored for efﬁ cient air

circulation.

• Is the freezer door closed properly?

Water dispenser is not

functioning.

• Is the water line connected and the shut-off valve open?

• Has the water supply line tubing been crushed or kinked?

Make sure the tubing is free and clear of any obstruction.

• Is the water tank frozen because the refrigerator temperature is too low?

Try selecting a warmer setting on the main display panel.
