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 a leveled floor.
•   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.

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.

For proper installation, this refrigerator must be placed on a leveled 
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 
a refrigerator, it is needed to pull and push in the back-and-forth 
direction.
•   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.
CAUTION
When moving your refrigerator 
To prevent floor damage, be sure the front adjusting 
legs are in the up position(above the floor).
Refer to ‘Adjusting the doors’ in the manual 
(on page 15).
