SETTING UP the refrigerator

Now that you have your new Refrigerator installed in place, you are ready to set up and enjoy the features and functions of the appliance. By completing the following steps, your Refrigerator should be fully operational.

If not, first check the power supply and electricity source or try the troubleshooting section at the back of this user’s guide. If you have any further questions, contact your Samsung Electronics service center.

1.Place the Refrigerator in an appropriate location with reasonable clearance between the wall and the Refrigerator. Refer to installation instructions in this manual.

2.Once the Refrigerator is plugged in, make sure the interior light comes on when you open the doors.

3.Set the Temperature control to the coldest temperature and wait for an hour. The Freezer will get slightly chilled and the motor will run smoothly.

4.After powering the Refrigerator, it will take a few hours to reach the appropriate temperature. You can store food and drinks in the Refrigerator after the temperature is sufficiently cool.
