GETTING READY TO INSTALL
THE REFRIGERATOR

Congratulations on the purchase of your Samsung

the many state-of-the-art features and efﬁ ciencies
that this new appliance has to offer.

Selecting the best location for the
refrigerator

• Select a location with easy access to the water

supply.

• Select a location without direct exposure to

sunlight.

• Select a location with level (or nearly level) flooring.
• Select a location with enough space for the

refrigerator doors to open easily.

• Allow sufficient space to the right, left, back and

top for air circulation.

- If your refrigerator is not level, the internal cooling

system may not work correctly.

- Refer to drawing and dimensions below for overall

space required for use.

• Please ensure that appliance can be moved freely

in the event of maintenance & service.

When moving your refrigerator

To prevent ﬂ oor damage be sure the front levelling

legs are in the up position (above the ﬂ oor). Refer to
‘Levelling the refrigerator’ in the manual(at page 15).

To protect the ﬁ nish of the ﬂ ooring, place the
protection sheet such as packing carton under the
refrigerator.

When installing, servicing or cleaning behind
the refrigerator, be sure to pull the unit straight
out and push back in straight after ﬁ nishing.

First things ﬁ rst! Make sure that you can easily move
your refrigerator to its ﬁ nal location by measuring
doorways (both width and height), thresholds,
ceilings, stairways, etc. The following chart details

top when installing. This will help reduce
power consumption and keep your energy
bills lower.

• Do not install the refrigerator where the

temperature can drop below 10°C.

• Make sure you disconnect the water supply line

BEFORE removing the freezer door. See the next
section on “Separating the Water Line” to avoid
