4 SETTING UP THE REFRIGERATOR Place the refigerator in an appropriate location with reasonable clearance between the wall and the refigerator. (refer to installation instructions in this mannal) MAJOR FEATURES Twin Cooling System • The refrigerator and the freezer have two evapora tors. Given this independent system, the freezer and the refrigerator are cooled individually as required and are, therefore, more efficient. Food odor from the refrigerator does not affect food in the freezer due to separate of air flow circulation. Multi-Flow System • Cool air circulates through multiple vents on every shelf level. This provides even distribution of cooling inside cabinets to keep your food fresh longer. Door Alarm • A beeper reminds you if the door is left open. High humidity for fresher food • You can keep food, fruit and vegetables fresh for longer because your refrigerator supplies highly humidified cold air. This can be up to four or five times more effective than a normal refrigerator. Energy-saving fridge/freezer • Power consumption is kept to a minimum by distrib- uting cool air separately to the refrigerator and freezer. Faster cooling times • The power freeze function allow you to freeze food more quickly. Abundant supply of ice and cold water • The ice and water dispenser provides ice and cold water at any time. Beverage Station (optional) • You do not have to open the main door to access frequently used food in the extra refrigerating compartment. This saves time and money. Deodorizer (optional) • Reusable deodorizer keeps the refrigerator air fresh and odor free. CoolSelect Zone TMDrawer (optional) • User can select Quick Cool, Thaw and Select buttons for quickly chill, thaw and cools items. Select Soft Freeze, Cool or Chill to control the tempera ture of drawer. Once you have performed the following steps, your refrigerator should be fully operational. If not, check the power supply and electricity source. If you have any questions, contact your SAMSUNG service center. Set the temperature control to the coldest temperature and wait for an hour. The freezer should get slightly chilled and the motor should run smoothly. Once the refrigerator temperature is sufficiently low, you can store food in the refrigerator. After starting the refrigerator, it takes a few hours to reach the appropriate temperature. When the refrigerator is plugged in, the interior light should come on when you open the doors. NOTE This operation instruction covers various mod- els. The characteristics of your appliance may differ slightly from those described in this manual. DA99-00494B 4/7/03 2:29 PM Page 4
