GETTING READY TO INSTALL THE
REFRIGERATOR
Congratulations on your purchase of this 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 a water supply.
• A location without direct exposure to sunlight.
• A location with a leveled floor.
• A location with enough space for the refrigerator
doors to open easily.
• A location that allows sufficient space to the right,
left, back and top for air circulation.
• A location that allows you to move the refrigerator
easily if it needs maintenance or service.
2 inches
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,
you need a minimum clearance of 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.

• Allow clearance to the
right, left, back and top
when installing.
This will help reduce power
consumption and keep
your energy bills lower.

where the temperature will go
below 50ºF (10ºC).
• Do not locate the refrigerator where it may become
wet.
When moving your refrigerator

FLOORING
For proper installation, you must place this refrigerator
on a level, hard surface that is the same height as the
rest of the floor. This surface should be strong enough
to support a fully loaded refrigerator, or approximately
359lbs (165kg).
To protect the finish of the flooring, cut a large
section of the cardboard carton and place it under
the refrigerator where you are working. When moving
the refrigerator, you need to pull and push it straight
forwards or back. Do not wiggle it from side to side.
