CLEaning thE rEfrigErator
Caring for your Samsung Side-By-Side Refrigerator prolongs the life of y\
our appliance and helps keep it 
odor and germ-free.
Cleaning the Interior
Clean the inside walls and accessories with a mild detergent and 
then wipe dry with a soft cloth. You can remove the drawers 
and shelves for a more thorough cleaning. Just make sure to dry 
them before putting them back into place.
Cleaning the Exterior
Wipe the digital panel and display panel with a clean, soft cloth. 
Spray water onto the cleaning cloth instead of spraying directly 
on the surface of the refrigerator. This helps ensure an even 
distribution of moisture to the surface. The doors, handles and 
cabinet surfaces should be cleaned with a mild detergent and 
then wiped dry with a soft cloth. To keep your appliance looking 
its best, the exterior should be polished once or twice a year.
Do NOT use Benzene, Thinner or Clorox™ for cleaning. 
They may damage the surface of the appliance and can create a risk of fi\
re.
Cleaning the Soft touch type Home Bar
Use a damp cloth to clean the ice and water dispenser.
Then wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth.
Use soft touch type Home Bar as follow
-  In the case of opening the Home Bar, it will be opened 
automatically when you push the upper position of Home 
Bar until rattling.
-  In the case of closing the Home Bar, push the upper 
position of Home Bar until rattling.
Cleaning the Rubber door seals
If the rubber door seals are dirty the doors may not close 
properly, and the refrigerator will not operate efficiently. Keep the \
door seals free of grit or grime by cleaning the doors with a mild 
detergent and damp cloth. Wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth.
Do not spray the refrigerator with water while it is plugged in, as it m\
ay cause an electric 
shock. Do not clean the refrigerator with benzene, thinner or car deterg\
ent for risk of fire.

Cleaning the Twin Deodorizer
To clean the twin deodorizer, remove the cover with a flat blade screw\
driver. Remove the 
deodorizer cartridge from the cover and soak it in clean, warm water for\
 at least 4 hours.
Then, allow the cartridge to dry completely before replacing it in the h\
older. This can take up to 8 
hours in a well-ventilated area. For best results, repeat this process o\
nce or twice a year.
If the cartridge dries in a confined (or humid) area, there may be a\
n odor to the cartridge. If 
this occurs, re-clean and allow to dry in a well-ventilated area.
Cleaning behind the Refrigerator
To keep cords and exposed parts free of dust and dirt accumulation, vacu\
um behind the 
appliance once or twice a year.
Do not remove the back cover. There can be a risk of electric shock.

ows.
.	Replace the bulb with a new one.

Changing thE watEr fiLtEr
The “Filter Indicator” light lets you know when it is time to chan\
ge your water filter cartridge. To give you 
some time to get a new filter, the light will come on up just before t\
he capacity of the current filter runs out.
Changing the filter on time provides you with the freshest, cleanest w\
ater from your fridge.
1.	Remove the water filter from the box and put a month indicator sticker\
 on the filter as 
shown.
.	Place a sticker on the filter that dates six months in the future. For\
 example, if you are 
replacing the water filter in March, put the “SEP” (September)\
 sticker on the filter to 
remind you to replace in September. Normally filter life is about ever\
y 6 months.
.	Next, remove the fixed cap by turning it counter clockwise.
.	Remove the new filter’s protective cap and remove the old filter.\
.	Position and insert the new filter into the filter housing. 
Slowly turn the water filter clockwise 90º to align with the indica\

spurt from the water 
dispenser. This is due to air getting into the line. It should pose no p\
roblem to operation.
Ordering replacement filters

the catch that allows it to stay open, it will close automatically.
