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 for air circulation of the internal cooling system.
If the Refrigerator does not have enough space, the internal cooling system may
not work properly.
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 50ºF (10ºC).
• Do not locate the refrigerator where it may become wet.
When moving your refrigerator
To prevent floor damage, be sure the front adjusting legs
CAUTION
are in the up position(above the floor).
Refer to 'Adjusting the doors' in the manual (on page 15).
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 328lbs (150kg). 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 the refrigerator, be sure to pull it straight out and
push it back straight in.
