Setting up your French Door Refrigerator

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.

• 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.

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.
The following chart details the exact height and depth

below 50ºF (10ºC).  

•  Do not locate the refrigerator 

where it may become wet.

Please contact your local authorities in regard to the 

environmentally safe disposal of this product. Ensure 

that none of the pipes on the back of the refrigerator 

are damaged prior to disposal.
