If you do not secure the nut firmly, the bolt may release. CHECKING THE WATER DISPENSER LiNE A water dispenser is one of the helpful features on your new Samsung Refrigerator. To help promote better health, the Samsung water filter removes unwanted particles from your water. However, it does not sterilize or destroy microorganisms. You may need to purchase a water purifying system to do that. In order for the ice maker to operate properly, a water pressure of 20-125 psi (pound per square inch)is required. Under normal conditions, a 170 cc (5.75 oz.) paper cup can be filled in 10 seconds. If the Refrigerator is installed in an area with low water pressure (below 20psi), you can install a booster pump to compensate for the low pressure. Make sure the water storage tank inside the Refrigerator is properly filled. To do this, press the water dispenser lever until the water runs from the water outlet. Water line installation kits are available at extra cost from your dealer. We recommend using a water supply kit that contains copper tubing. Connecting to the water supply line 1. First, shut off the main water supply line and turn the ice-maker off. 2. Locate the nearest cold, drinking water line. 3. After connecting the water supply to the water filter, turn your main water supply back on and flush 3 gallons(Flush approximately 6 minutes) into a bucket to clear and prime the water filter. Cold water line Pipe damp ==-=_Water line installation kit settng up 17 q INSTALLING THE WATER LINE Connecting the water line to the Refrigerator. There are several items that you need to purchase to complete this connection.

ADo not use without the molded end(Bulb) of the plastic tubing 0. CAUTION 3. Tighten the compression nut ® onto the compression fitting. Do not over-tighten the compression nut ®. 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 1/4" of the plastic tubing to make sure you get a snug, leak-free connection. 18 setti_g up Removing residual matter inside the water supply line after installing filter 1. Turn ON the main water supply. 2. Press the Water button and push the dispenser pad. 3. Flush 3 gallons of water through the filter befor use. (Flush approximately 6 minutes.) This will clean the water supply system and remove air from the lines. 4. Additional flushing may be required in some households. 5. Open the refrigerator door and make sure there are no water leaks coming from the water filter. Ice ater 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 1. Lift up and pull out the Ice maker bucket in the freezer. 2. When you press the Test button for 3 seconds, CHECKTHEWATERLEVEL 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 illustration). If the water level is too low, the ice cubes will be small. This is not a problem with the ice maker but of the water pressure in the pipe. When this problem occurs, contact the dealer service center to check the amount of water supplied.

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? Check if the cooling off function is on. If the Freezer/Fridge temperature indicator is moving, refer to page 22 to cancel the cooling off function. The food in the fridge is frozen. O O You hear unusual noises or sounds. • O O The front corners of the appliance are hot and condensation is occurring. Ice is not dispensing. O O O O You can hear water O bubbling in the refrigerator. There is a bad smell in • the refrigerator. O Frost forms on the walls • of the freezer. O Water dispenser is not functioning. O 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 high water content in the coldest part of the fridge? 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-condensates' 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 maker bucket? Is the freezer temperature too warm? Try setting the freezer temperature lower. This is normal. The bubbling comes from the refrigerant coolant liquid circulating through the refrigerator. Has a food item spoiled? Make sure that strong smelling food (for example, fish) 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 sufficient space between the foods stored for efficient 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. 30 appendix tTetT 0 _31 Ambient Room Temperature Limits This refrigerator is designed to operate in ambient temperatures specified by its temperature class marked on the rating plate.
