STEP 6 Connect the water dispenser line (applicable models only)

A water dispenser with a filter is one of the helpful features on your new refrigerator. To help promote better health, the water filter removes unwanted particles from your water. However, it does not sterilize or destroy microorganisms. You may need to purchase a water purifying system to do that.

The water line also connects to the ice maker. For the ice maker to operate properly, water pressure of 30 to 120 psi (206 to 827 kPa) psi is required.

If the refrigerator is installed in an area with low water pressure (below 30 psi / 206 kPa), you can install a booster pump to compensate for the low pressure.

After you have connected the water line, make sure the water storage tank inside the refrigerator is properly filled. To do this, press the water dispenser lever until water runs from the water outlet.

NOTE

- Water line installation kits are available at extra cost from your retailer. We recommend using a water line installation kit that contains copper tubing and a ^1/4 " (6 mm) compression nut.

CAUTION

Do not mount the water filter on any part of the refrigerator. This may damage the refrigerator.

1. Connect the household water line to the assembled compression fitting.

2. If you are using copper tubing, slip the compression nut (07) (not supplied) and ferrule (not supplied) on the copper tubing (not supplied) as shown.

3. If you are using plastic tubing (08), insert the molded end (Bulb) of the plastic tubing (08) into the compression fitting.

CAUTION

• If you use plastic tubing (08), do not use it without the molded end (Bulb).
- Leaving the water line disconnected may cause the water valve to produce a buzzing sound over time. If this is the case, make sure that the ice making function is turned "OFF" and do not attempt to use the water dispenser.
2. Tighten the compression nut (07) onto the compression fitting. Do not over-tighten the compression nut (07).
3. Turn the water on and check for any leakage. If you find water drops or leakage in the connection areas, turn off the main water supply. Check the connections and, if necessary, tighten.
4. Flush 1 gallon of water through the filter before drinking or using the water from the refrigerator. (Flush approximately 6 minutes.) To flush, press a large glass or cup against the water dispenser lever. Fill the glass, empty it, and then repeat.
5. After you turn on the refrigerator, let the ice maker make ice for 1 to 2 days. Over that period of time, throw out the first 1 or 2 buckets of ice the ice maker makes to ensure all impurities have been removed from the water line.

NOTE

Only connect the water line to a potable water source.

• If you have to repair or disassemble the water line, cut off 1/4 of the plastic tubing to make sure you get a snug, leak-free connection.
• You can test the water line quickly using a paper cup. Under normal conditions, the water dispenser can fill a 5^3/4 oz. (170 cc) cup in about 10 seconds.

Operations

SMART GRID Function (Demand Response) (applicable models only)

When the refrigerator operates in SMART GRID (Demand Response) mode, the Energy Management Refrigerator function can control energy usage or delay the operation of some functions to save money when energy prices or demand are the highest.

NOTE

• You can deactivate the SMART GRID (Demand Response) function at any time using the Peak Demand Off function.
• To use the SMART GRID (Demand Response) function, you need a separate contract with your electric utility company.

In addition, to use the Smart Grid (Demand Response) function, you must register for the service with your electric company. The company must have an EMS (Energy Management System) that supports SEP (Smart Energy profile).

Using the SMART GRID (Demand Response) Function

This feature monitors energy prices and demand information from your utility company and sends notifications to the refrigerator to run high energy consuming tasks during off-peak times when electricity costs and demand are lower.

If the refrigerator receives a control signal from the utility company, the refrigerator will display the DAL (L3) \~ TALR (L4) levels on the refrigerator display and control the power consumption according to the level.

[Exception condition] The DAL and TALR control signals from a utility company work as long as product performance is maintained.

If the refrigerator receives the SMART GRID (Demand Response) signal (DAL or TALR), the refrigerator will operate in Delay Appliance Load (Display:L3) or Temporary Appliance Load Reduction (Display:L4) mode.

- Delay Appliance Load (L3): The refrigerator responds to a DAL signal by providing a moderate load reduction for the duration of the delay period. This function controls functions that consume a lot of energy such as adjusting the Cooling system, running the defrost cycle, and making ice.

• When the refrigerator operates in DAL (L3) mode, "L3" is displayed on the refrigerator display.
• DAL mode is automatically deactivated after it lasts for the amount of time stipulated by the DAL signal (max. 4.5 hours) or when the Peak Demand Off key is pressed.

- Temporary Appliance Load Reduction (L4): The refrigerator responds to a TALR signal by aggressively reducing the load for a short time period. This function reduces energy consumption by stopping the compressor and controlling the functions that consume a lot of energy such as the defrost cycle and making ice.

- When the refrigerator operates in TALR (L4) mode, "L4" is displayed on the refrigerator display.

- TALR (L4) mode is automatically deactivated after it lasts for the received duration (max. 15 minutes), or when the Peak Demand Off key is pressed. The mode is immediately deactivated and the refrigerator returns to the normal state when the door is opened or closed, or the dispenser is used.

Ice making

After you have installed your refrigerator and plugged it in, follow these instructions to ensure proper ice making and to keep the ice bucket full of ice.

For first-time use

- Let the ice maker make ice for 1-2 days.

- Discard the first 1-2 buckets of ice to remove impurities in the water supply system.

Diagnosis

- The overall design and/or accessories may differ with the model.

- If ice does not dispense, first check the status of ice maker using the Test button on the bottom of the ice maker.

- Press the Test button on the bottom of the ice maker. You will hear a chime (ding-dong) when you press the button. You will hear another chime if the ice maker is operating properly.

Operations

Two-step diagram showing a container with granular material inside, before and after processing (no text or symbols)

- Ice accumulating on one side of the tray is normal. Arrange the ice evenly in the tray to store more ice.

• Take caution when removing the ice bucket, the ice cubes may pour down from the tilt.

CAUTION

• Leaving the water line disconnected may cause the water valve to produce a buzzing sound over time. If this is the case, make sure to turn the ice making function (Cubed Ice / Ice Bites) off.
- If the ice making chime rings repeatedly, contact the waterline installer or a local Samsung service center.
- Do not put food in the ice bucket. The frozen food may damage the ice maker, especially when you open or close the door.
- When the refrigerator recovers power after a power failure, the ice bucket may contain a mix of melted and jammed ice cubes, which can prevent the ice maker from working properly. To prevent this, make sure to empty the ice bucket before using the refrigerator.
- Do not put fingers or any objects into the ice maker. This can cause physical injury or property damage.
- Due to sublimation, ice stored in the freezer for a long time gets smaller and then forms large ice chunks. Therefore, if it will be a long time before you use ice, turn the ice maker off as follows.
- Use the new hose-sets supplied with the appliance only. Do not re-use an old hose set.
