LEVELing thE rEfrigErator
Now that the doors are back on the refrigerator, you will want to make s\
ure the refrigerator is level so 
you can then make final 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 flat-blade screwdriver into a notch on the Leg, turn it clock\
wise or counter clockwise to 
level the freezer.
When the Freezer door is higher than the fridge
Insert a flat-blade screwdriver into a notch on the Leg, turn it clock\
wise or counter clockwise to 
level the fridge.
Refer to the next section for the best way to make very minor adjustment\
s to the doors.

In both cases the process to correct the imbalance 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 .
When you release the nut 1, make sure that you use the Allen wrench provided  to 
loosen the bolt  in a counter-clockwise direction. You should then be able to unscrew th\
e 
nut 1 with your fingers.
.	Adjust the height difference between the doors by turning the bolt  clockwise  or 
counter clockwise .
When you turn clockwise , the door will move up.

ChECKing thE watEr DisPEnsEr LinE (oPtionaL)
A water dispenser is just one of the helpful features on your new Samsun\
g refrigerator. To help promote 
better health, the Samsung water filter removes unwanted particles fro\
m your water. However, it does not 
sterilize or destroy microorganisms. You will need to purchase a water p\
urifying 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 filled in 10 seconds.
If the refrigerator is installed in an area with low water pressure (be\
low 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 with unit. You can find it i\
n freezer drawer.

Connecting the water line to the refrigerator
1.    Remove the cap from water line on the unit and insert compression nut to\
 the water line on 
the unit after disassembling from provided water line.
2. Connect both water line from the unit and water line provided kit.
3.  Tighten the compression nut onto the compression fitting. Be careful n\
o gap between two 
items.
4. Turn water on and check for any leakage.
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 th\
e plastic tubing to 
make sure you get a snug, leak-free connection.
Before being used, the leakage in these places should be examined

INSTALLATION.
• It’ll be done at customer’s 
charge except the retail price 
includes installation cost.
• Please contact Plumber or 
Authorized Installer for the installation if needed.

act installer.
Installing the water filter.
1.	Remove the water filter from the box and put 
a replacement indicator sticker on the filter as 
shown.
.	Place a sticker on the filter that dates six months 
in the future. For example, if you install the water 
filter in March, put the “SEP” sticker on the filter 
to remind you to replace in September. That 
way you’ll know when it is time to replace the 
filter. Normally filter life is about 6 months.
.	Next, remove the fixed cap by turning it counter 
clockwise. Keep the cap in a safe place for use 
if you choose not to use a filter.

.	Remove the filter’s protective cap 
and then position and insert the 
filter into the filter housing.
.	Slowly turn the water filter 
clockwise 90º to align with the 
indication mark on the cover, 
locking the filter in position. Make 
sure that the indicator is lined up 
with the “lock” position. Remember, 
do not over-tighten.
If your model contains wine shelf, you should remove the wine shelf befo\
re installing water 
filters.
Removing any residual matter inside the water supply line after 
installing filter.
1.	Turn ON the main water supply & turn OFF the valve to the 
water supply line.
.	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.
.	Additional flushing may be required in some households.
.	Open the refrigerator door and make sure there are no 
water leaks coming from the water filter.
A newly installed water filter cartridge may cause water 
to briefly 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. (Optional)
1.	Lift up the icemaker bucket and gently pull out of the freezer.
.	When you press the Test button, the ice cube container is filled with water from the water 
supply tap. Check to make sure the amount of water is correct(see the i\
llustration below).
If the water level is too low, the ice cubes will be small. This is a wa\
ter pressure problem from 
with in the main water pipes, not the refrigerator.
