3. Open the main water valve and check

4. If there are no leaks, dispense about a

3 liters of water before actually using the refrigerator to remove impurities inside the water ltering system. To repair the water line CAUTION The waterline must be repaired by a qualied professional. If you encounter a water leak, contact a local Samsung service centre or the installer of the waterline. STEP 6 Initial settings By completing the following steps, the refrigerator should be fully functioning.

1. Plug the power cord into the wall socket to turn the refrigerator on.

2. Open the door, and check if the interior light lights up.

3. Set the temperature to the coldest, and wait for about an hour. Then, the freezer will be

slightly chilled, and the motor will run smoothly.

4. Wait until the refrigerator reaches the set temperature. Now the refrigerator is ready

for use. STEP 7 Final check When installation is complete, conrm that:

• The refrigerator is plugged into an electrical outlet and grounded properly.

• The refrigerator is installed on a at, level surface with a reasonable clearance from the wall or the cabinet.

• The refrigerator is level and is sitting rmly on the oor.

• The door opens and closes freely, and the interior light turns on automatically when you open the door.

liters of water to remove impurities from the water line. See the Flushing section for more information. NOTE

• A newly installed lter may cause the water dispenser to spurt water briey. This is because air has entered the waterline.

• This replacement process may involve the refrigerator to drip water onto the oor. If this happens, wipe up with dry cloths. Reverse osmosis water ltration system The water pressure of the water supply system to a reverse osmosis water ltration system must be between 35 psi and 120 psi (241 kPa and 827 kPa). The water pressure of the reverse osmosis water ltration system to the refrigerator’s cold water line must be at least 40 psi (276 kPa). If the water pressure is below the specied:

• Check to see whether the sediment lter in the reverse osmosis system is blocked. Replace the lter if necessary.

• Rell the water tank in the reverse osmosis system with water.

• If your refrigerator has a water lter, it may further reduce the water pressure when used in conjunction with a reverse osmosis system. Remove the water lter. For more information or servicing, contact a licensed plumbing professional. Ordering a new lter To purchase a new water lter, contact a local Samsung service centre. Lamps and anti-bacteria lter Neither lamps nor the anti-bacteria lter are user-serviceable. Do not attempt to replace them yourself. To replace them, contact a local Samsung service centre.

General Symptom Action Does not operate or cool.

• Make sure the power cord is connected properly.

• Make sure the temperature control is set correctly. Try setting to a lower temperature.

• Make sure to keep the refrigerator away from direct sunlight or a heat source. Failing to do so may affect the cooling performance.

• Make sure the refrigerator has enough room from the rear and side walls or the cabinet. Failing to do so may affect the cooling performance.

• Too much food may block the ventilation of the refrigerator. To keep the refrigerator in normal operation, do not put too much food inside. Food in the fridge freezes.

• Check if the temperature control is set to the lowest temperature. If so, change to a higher or the optimal temperature.

• This happens if the ambient temperature is too low. Set the temperature higher.

• Check if food containing a high portion of water is put in the coldest area of the fridge or near the cooling vent. If this happens, move the food to other shelves in the fridge. Emits noises.

• Make sure the refrigerator is installed on a stable, at surface.

• Make sure the refrigerator has enough room from the rear and side walls or the cabinet.

• Make sure to keep the refrigerator from impurities or foreign objects inside or underneath.

• The refrigerator may produce a ticking sound from inside, which occurs when the various accessories contract or expand. This is not a system failure. Troubleshooting Untitled-74 59 7/18/2017 5:08:20 PMTroubleshooting English60 Troubleshooting Symptom Action The front corners and sides become warm and form condensation.

• To prevent condensation from forming, the refrigerator has heat-proof piping in the front corners. If the ambient temperature rises, this equipment may not work effectively. This is not a system failure.

• Make sure the door is closed properly. Condensation may form if you leave the door open for some time.

• Condensation may form on the exterior surface of the refrigerator if humid air comes into contact with the cool surface of the refrigerator. The ice maker does not make ice.

• You must wait for 12 hours until the refrigerator makes ice.

• Make sure the ice maker is not stopped while making ice.

• Make sure the water tank is lled with water.

• Check if the icemaker bucket contains ice clumps. In this case, empty the icemaker bucket and try again. The water dispenser is not functioning.

• Check if the water tank is frozen. If so, select a higher fridge temperature.

• Make sure the water tank is lled with water.

• Make sure the water tank is installed properly.

• Make sure the water lter is installed properly. Produces a bubbling sound.

• The refrigerator makes this sound during the cooling process, which is normal. A bad smell comes from inside the refrigerator.

• Check for any spoiled food. We recommend cleaning the refrigerator on a regular basis and remove any spoiled or suspect food items.

• Make sure strong smelling food is wrapped up airtight. Frost forms on the interior walls.

• Make sure no food blocks the vents of the refrigerator. It is also important to arrange food items evenly for ventilation.

• Make sure the door is closed properly. Condensation forms on the interior walls or around vegetables.

• This happens when food containing a high portion of water is stored uncovered, or the door has been left open for a while.

• Make sure food is covered or put in sealed containers. Untitled-74 60 7/18/2017 5:08:21 PMEnglish 61 Troubleshooting Symptom Action Ice maker does not supply Ice cubes. Check the following:

• Push the water dispenser lever to check the water supply.

• Push the ice dispenser lever to check the operation of the auger motor in the ice maker assembly.

• Check if there are any objects that obstruct the auger motor from running. If found, remove the objects and clear the motor area.

• If the ice maker has not been used for an extended time, the icemaker bucket may contain ice chunk that obstructs the auger motor from running properly. In this case, remove and empty the icemaker bucket, and try dispensing ice.
