LEVELLING THE REFRIGERATOR
Now that the doors are back on the refrigerator, you 
will want to make sure the refrigerator is level so you 
can then make fi nal adjustments. If the refrigerator 
is not level, it will not be possible to get the doors 
perfectly even.
The front of the refrigerator is also adjustable.
When the Freezer door is lower than 
the fridge
Insert a fl at-blade screwdriver into a notch on the 
Leg, turn it clockwise or counter clockwise to level 
the freezer.
When the Freezer door is higher than 
the fridge
Insert a fl at-blade screwdriver into a notch on the 
Leg, turn it clockwise or counter clockwise to level 
the fridge.
Refer to the next section for the best way to 
make very minor adjustments to the doors.
MAKING MINOR ADJUSTMENTS 
TO THE DOORS
Remember, a level refrigerator is necessary for getting 
the doors perfectly even. If you need help, review the 
previous section on levelling the refrigerator.
In the process for adjusting both the doors is the 
same. Open the doors and adjust them, one at a 
time, as follows:
1.  Unscrew the 
nut 
1 from the 
lower hinge until 
it reaches the 
upper end of the 
bolt 
2.
When you release the nut 
1, make sure that 
you use the Allen wrench provided 3 to loosen 
the bolt 2 in a counter-clockwise direction. 
You should then be able to unscrew the nut 1 
with your fi ngers.
2.   Adjust the 
height difference 
between the 
doors by turning 
the bolt 
2 
clockwise  
or counter clockwise .
When you turn clockwise 
, the door will 
move up.
3.   After adjusting 
the doors, turn 
the nut 
1 
clockwise  
until it reaches 
the lower end 
of the bolt, then tighten the bolt again with the 
wrench 
3 to fi x the nut in place 1.
If you do not secure the nut fi rmly, the bolt may 
release.

CHECKING THE WATER 
DISPENSER LINE (OPTIONAL)
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.
INSTALLING THE WATER 
DISPENSER LINE
For Interior model
Parts for water line Installation
Connecting to the water supply line1. fi rst, shut off the main water supply line.
2. locate the nearest cold, drinking water line.
3. follow the Water line Installation Instructions in the 
    installation kit.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.
Connecting the water line to the 
refrigerator
1.  Remove the dust cap from the water line on the 
rear of the unit and fi t a compression nut from the 
install kit.
2.  Remove the water pipe from the install kit and fi t a 
compression nut to one end.
3.  Join the two pipes together using the compression 
joint from the install kit ensuring that the joint is 
water tight.
4.  Join the other end of the install pipe to the main 
water supply and turn on the water to check for 
leaks.
Only connect the water line to a drinkable water 
source.
If you have to repair or disassemble the water 
line, cut off 6.5mm of the plastic tubing to
make sure you get a snug, leak-free connection.  
Before being used, the leakage in these 
places should be examined
CAUTION
The water line must be connected
to the cold water pipe. If it is connected 
to the hot water pipe, it may cause the
purifi er to malfunction.

01 SETTING UP
Connect the water line to the 
refrigerator.
-  Remove the compressor cover of the refrigerator.
-   Connect the water line to the valve, as shown in 
the fi gure.
-  When connected, check if there is any leakage.
    If any, repeat the connection.
-  Reattach the compressor cover of the refrigerator.
Secure the water line.
-   Using clip ”A”, fi x the water 
line to the wall (the back of 
refrigerator).
-    When the water line is 
secure, make sure whether 
the water line is not 
excessively bent, pinched or 
squashed.
Removing any residual matter inside 
the water supply line after installing 
fi lter.
1.   
  Turn ON the main water supply & turn OFF the 
valve to the  water supply line.
2.    Run water through the dispenser until the water 
runs clear (approx. 1L). This will clean the water 
supply system and remove air from the lines.
3.   
  Additional fl ushing may be required in some 
households.
4.    Open the refrigerator door and make sure there 
are no water leaks coming from the water fi lter.
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.
Check the amount of water supplied 
to the ice tray.
1. Lift up the icemaker cover and gently pull out.
2.  When you press the Test button for 3 seconds, 
the ice cube container is fi lled with water from the 
water supply tap. Check to make sure the amount 
of water is correct (see the illustration below).
     If the water level is too low, the ice cubes will be 
small. This is a water pressure problem from with 
in the main water pipes, not the refrigerator.

CONTROLLING THE 
TEMPERATURE
CONTROLLING THE FREEZER 
TEMPERATURE
The freezer temperature can be set between -14°C 
(8°F) and -25ºC (-14°F) to suit your particular needs. 
Press the Freezer button repeatedly until the desired 
temperature is shown in the temperature display. 
Keep in mind that foods like ice cream may melt at 
-16ºC (4°F).
The temperature display will move sequentially from 
-14°C (8°F) and -25ºC (-14°F). When the display 
reaches -14ºC (8°F), it will begin again at -25ºC 
(-14°F).
Five seconds after the new temperature is set the 
display will again show the actual current freezer 
temperature. However, this number will change as 
the Freezer adjusts to the new temperature.
The top and bottom guards in the freezer of 
this model are the two star sections, so the 
temperature in two star sections are slightly 
higher than other freezer compartment.

display. The temperature control process for the 
Fridge works just like the Freezer process. Press the 
Fridge button to set your desired temperature. After 
a few seconds, the Fridge will begin tracking towards 
the newly set temperature. This will be refl ected in the 
digital display. 
The temperature of the freezer or the refrigerator 
may rise from opening the doors too frequently, 
or if a large amount of warm or hot food is 
placed in either side. 
This may cause the digital display to blink. 
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.
