Setting up your French Door Refrigerator
gEtting REaDy to instaLL tHE REFRigERatoR
Congratulations on your purchase of the Samsung French Door Refrigerator. We hope you enjoy the state-of-art
features and efficiencies that this new appliance offers.
Selecting the best location for the Refrigerator
• A location with easy access to the water supply.
• A location without direct exposure to sunlight.
• A location with level (or nearly level) flooring.
• 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 the Refrigerator does not have enough space, the internal cooling system
may not work properly.
• Please ensure that appliance can be moved freely in the event of
maintenance & service.
If your refrigerator has an ice maker, allow extra space at the back for the water line connections. When you install the
refrigerator next to a fixed wall, minimum clearance is 3 ¾” (95mm) between the refrigerator and wall to allow the door to
swing open.

First thing! Make sure that you can easily move your Refrigerator to its final location by measuring doorways
(both width and height), thresholds, ceilings, stairways, etc.
The following chart details the exact height and depth of Samsung French Door Refrigerator.
• Allow clearance to the right, left, back and top when installing. This will help reduce power consumption
and keep your energy bills lower.
• Do not install the Refrigerator where the temperature will go below 50 ºF (10 ºC).
• Condensation may occur on the french door areas when you use Refrigerator for the first time.
The E.Saver function is automatically set to on when power is supplied to the Refrigerator.
If you experience excess condensation, press the E.Saver button again to turn the feature off.

To prevent floor damage be sure the front levelling legs are
in the up position (above the floor). Refer to ‘Levelling the
refrigerator’ in the manual.
To protect the finish of the flooring, place the protection
sheet such as packing carton under the refrigerator.
CAUTION
When installing, servicing or cleaning behind the refrigerator,
be sure to pull the unit straight out and push back in straight
after finishing.
