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.

Setting Up
FLOORING
For proper installation, this refrigerator must be placed on a level
surface of hard material that is the same height as the rest of the
flooring. This surface should be strong enough to support a fully loaded
refrigerator, or approximately
660lbs(299kg). To protect the finish of the flooring, cut a large section
of the cardboard carton and place under the refrigerator where you are
working. When moving, be sure to pull the unit straight out and push
back in straight.
• 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 50ºF (10ºC).
CAUTION
When moving your refrigerator
To prevent floor damage be sure the front leveling legs are in
the up position(above the floor).
Refer to ‘Leveling the refrigerator’ in the manual(at page 15)

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.
