Troubleshooting
If you encounter a problem with the refrigerator, first check the tables starting below, and
then try the suggested actions.
General
Troubleshooting
Symptom
Action
The refrigerator 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 so,
move the food to other shelves in the fridge.
You hear unusual
noises or sounds.
• Make sure the refrigerator is installed on a stable, flat
surface.
• Make sure the refrigerator has enough room from the rear
and side walls or the cabinet.
• Make sure that there are no foreign objects (coins, keys,
cutlery, etc.) inside or underneath the refrigerator.
• The refrigerator may produce a ticking sound from inside.
This occurs when the various accessories contract or expand
as the temperature inside changes. This is normal.
52 English
Untitled-8 52
2018-03-21
7:01:55
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.
You hear a bubbling
sound.
• This is normal. The bubbling sound comes from refrigerant
circulating through the refrigerator.
A bad smell comes
from inside the
refrigerator.
• Check for any spoiled food. We recommend cleaning the
refrigerator on a regular basis and removing any spoiled or
suspect food items.
• Make sure strong smelling food is wrapped up airtight.
Frost forms on the
interior walls.
• Make sure the air vents are not blocked by food or any other
objects so that the air can circulate freely. For efficient air
circulation, it is recommended to arrange food items evenly.
• Make sure the door is closed properly.
Condensation or
water drops form on
or around the vertical
mullion.
• While the refrigerator is operating, condensation or water
drops may form on or around the vertical mullion if the

Could not find
“Samsung Smart
Home” on the app
market.
• The Samsung Smart Home app is available on smartphones
that run Android 4.0 (ICS) or higher, or iOS 8.0 or higher.
The Samsung Smart
Home app fails to
operate.
• The Samsung Smart Home app is available on applicable
models only.
• The old Samsung Smart Refrigerator app cannot connect with
Samsung Smart Home models.
The Samsung Smart
Home app is installed
but is not connected
to my refrigerator.
• You must log into your Samsung account to use the app.
• Make sure that your router is operating normally.
• Make sure that the Smart Home Dongle is inserted properly.
If the Wi-Fi icon on the refrigerator’s display is off, this
indicates that no network connection has been established
yet. In this case, use the Samsung Smart Home app to
connect and register your refrigerator to the access point
(AP) of your house.
Could not log into the
app.
• You must log into your Samsung account to use the app.
• If you don’t have a Samsung account, follow the app’s
onscreen instructions to create one.
An error message
appears when I
try to register my
refrigerator.
• Easy Connection may fail due to the distance from your
access point (AP) or electrical interference from the
surrounding environment. Wait a moment and try again.
The Samsung
Smart Home app
is successfully
connected to my
refrigerator but does
not run.
• Exit and restart the Samsung Smart Home app, or disconnect
and reconnect the router.
• Remove the Smart Home Dongle, and reconnect it in a
moment.
