CHECKING THE WATER
DISPENSER LINE (OPTIONAL)
4. After connecting the water supply to the water fi lter, turn your main water supply back on and dispense about 1l to clear and prime the water fi lter.
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. You can fi nd it in one of the freezer drawers.

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.
Ice is made in cubes. When you select
“Crushed”, the icemaker grinds the ice cubes into crushed ice.

CHANGING THE WATER FILTER
WARNING
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.
When the fi lter indicator light changes to red, it is time to change the fi lter.
To give you some time to get a new fi lter, the light will come on up 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.
2. 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.
Normally fi lter life is about every 6 months.
3. Next, remove the fi xed cap by turning it counter clockwise.
4. Remove the new fi lter’s protective cap and remove the old fi lter.
5. Position and insert the new fi lter into the fi lter housing.
Slowly turn the water fi lter clockwise 90º to align with the indication mark on the cover, locking the fi lter in position.
Make sure that the indicator is lined up with the
“lock” position. Do not over tighten.
6. Once you have completed this process, hold the
Ice Type button for 3 seconds to reset the fi lter schedule.
7. Lastly, Dispense 1L of water through water dispenser and throw away. Make sure that water fl ows clearly again before drinking.
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 authorised 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.

PROBLEM
The refrigerator does not work at all or it does not chill suffi ciently.
The food in the fridge is frozen.
You hear unusual noises or sounds.
The front corners and sides of the appliance are hot and condensation is occurring.
Ice is not dispensing.
SOLUTION
• 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?
• 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.
• 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.
• 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.
• 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 storage unit?
• Is the freezer temperature too warm? Try setting the freezer temperature lower.
You can hear water bubbling in the refrigerator.
There is a bad smell in the refrigerator.
• This is normal. The bubbling comes from the refrigerant coolant liquid circulating through the refrigerator.
Frost forms on the walls of the freezer.
Water dispenser is not functioning.
• 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.
• 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?
• 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.
