OWNER???S MANUAL AND INSTALLATION

ENGLISH

CAUTIONS

Do not overfill the refrigerator with food.

???When you open the door, an item may fall out and cause personal injury or material damage.

Do not put bottles or glass containers in the freezer.

???When the contents freeze, the glass may break and cause personal injury.

If the wall socket is loose, do not insert the power plug.

??? There is a risk of electric shock or fire.

Do not disconnect the power cord by pulling on it.

???Damage to the cord may cause a short-circuit, fire and/or electric shock.

???If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, a certified service agent or qualified service personnel.

Do not store articles on the top of the appliance .

???When you open or close the door, the articles may fall and cause personal injury and/or material damage.

Do not store pharmaceuticals products, scientific materials or temperature-sensitive products in the refrigerator.

???Products that require strict temperature controls must not be stored in the refrigerator.

Do not let children hang on the door. If not, a seri- ous injury may occur.

If you smell pharmaceutical or smoke, pull out the power plug immediately and contact your SAM- SUNG Electronics service center.

Do not touch the inside walls of the freezer or products stored in the freezer with wet hands.

??? This may cause frostbite.

Do not insert your hands into the bottom area under the appliance.

??? Any sharp edges may cause personal injury.

Never put fingers or other objects into the dispenser hole and ice chute. It may cause personal injury or material damage

Either R600a or R134a are the refrigerants used. Check the compressor label on the rear of the appliance and the rating label inside the fridge to

see which refrigerant is used for your refrigerator.

CAUTIONS

The refrigerant used in the refrigerator/freezer and the gases in the insulation material require special dispos- al procedures. Ensure that none of the pipes on the back of the appliance are damaged prior to disposal.

If the refrigerator is not to be used for a long period of time, pull out the power plug.

??? Deterioration in the insulation may cause fire.

The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision. Young children should be supervised to ensure

that they do not play with the appliance.

Do not place the equipment directly under the sunlight.

The appliance must be positioned so that the plug is accessible after installation

If the power cord is damaged it must be replaced

by manufacturer, a certified service agent or qualified service personnel.

This appliance contains a small amount of isobutane refrigerant (R600a), a natural gas

with high environmental compatibility that is, however, also combustible. When transport- ing and installing the appliance, care should be taken

to ensure that no parts of the refrigerating circuit are damaged.

Refrigerant squirting out of the pipes could ignite or cause an eye injury. If a leak is detected, avoid any naked flames or potential sources of ignition and air the room in which the appliance is standing for sever- al minutes.

???In order to avoid the creation of a flammable gas-air mix- ture if a leak in the refrigerating circuit occurs, the size of the room in which the appliance may be sited depends on the amount of refrigerant used.

The room must be 1m3 in size for every 8 g of R600a refrigerant inside the appliance. The amount of refrigerant in your particular appliance is shown on the identification plate inside the appliance.

???Never start up an appliance showing any signs of dam- age. If in doubt, consult your dealer.

SAFETY WARNING

Place the refigerator in an appropriate location with reasonable clearance between the wall and the refigerator.

(refer to installation instructions in this mannal)

When the refrigerator is plugged in, the interior light should come on when you open the doors.

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.

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.

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 ZoneTMDrawer (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.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

CHECKING THE WATER DISPENSER LINE (OPTIONAL)

1) In order to operate the ice maker properly, water pressure of 1.4 ~ 10 kgf/cm2 is required. In this range a 100 cc paper cup can be filled in 10 seconds.

2)The water filter removes particles. It does not sterilize or destroy any micro-organisms.

3)If the refrigerator is installed in an area with low water pressure (below 1.4kgf/cm2), you should install a booster pump to compensate for the low pressure.

4)Ensure the water storage tank inside the refrigerator is preperly filled initially. Push the water dis penser lever until the water runs from the outlet.

A universal water supply kit is available at extra cost from your dealer. The refrigerator manufacturer

NOTE recommends using a water supply kit containing copper tubing.

TROUBLESHOOTING

The refrigerator does not work at all or it does not chill sufficiently

???Check that the power plug is properly connected.

???Is the temperature control on the display panel set to the correct temperature? Try seting it to a lower temperature.

???Is the refrigerator in direct sunlight or located near a heat source?

???Is the back of the refrigerator too close to the wall?

The food in the refrigerator is frozen

???Is the temperature control on the display panel set to the correct temperature? Try seting it to a warmer temperature.

???Is the temperature in the room too low?

???Did you store the food with a high water content in the coldest part of the refrigerator.

You can hear unusual noise or sounds

???Check that the floor is levelled and stable.

???Is the back of the refrigerator too near to the wall?

???Was anything dropped behind or under the refrigerator?

???A ???ticking??? sound may be heard from inside the refrigerator, but this is normal. This occurs because various accessories are contracted or expanded.

The front corners and sides of the cabinet are hot; condensation occurs.

???Anti-condensators are installed in the front corners of the refrigerator to prevent condensation.

???Condensation can occur when you leave the door open for a long time.

Ice is not dispensed

???Did you stop the ice making function?

???Is there any ice in the ice storage unit?

???Is the water line connected and the shut-off valve open?

???Is the freezer temperature too warm? (Set the temperature lower)

???Did you wait for 12 hours after installation of the water supply line before making ice?

You can hear water bubbling in the refrigerator

???The bubbling comes from the refrigerant circulating in the refrigerator and is normal.

There is a bad smell in the refrigerator

??? Wrap food with a strong smell so that it is airtight. Throw away any rotten food.

Frost forms on the wall of the freezer

???Is the air vent blocked?

???Allow sufficient space between the foods stored for efficient air circulation.

???Is the door closed properly?

No water is supplied

???Is the water line connected and the shut-off valve open?

???Is the water supply line crushed?

???Is the water tank frozen because the refrigerator temperature is too low? Select a warmer setting on the display panel.
