PREPARING THE APPLIANCE
Once you have performed the following steps, your fridge/freezer should be fully operational.
If not, check the power supply and electricity source. If you have any doubts or problems,
contact your SAMSUNG service centre.
1 Place the shelves and containers
which were removed for transport in
their appropriate positions (refer to
pages 10 to 12). 4 Set the temperature control to the
coldest temperature and wait for one
hour. The freezer should get slightly
chilled and the motor should run
smoothly producing a soft humming
noise.
2 Clean the fridge/freezer and acces-
sories to remove any dust that accu-
mulated during packing and shipping
(refer to page 13). 5 Once the refrigerator temperature is
sufficiently low, you can store food in
the appliance.
It takes a few hours after starting the
fridge/freezer to reach the appropriate
temperature.
3 When the refrigerator is plugged in, the
interior light should come on each time
you open the refrigerator door. Your fridge/freezer is operated by a compressor
which switchs “on and off” to maintain the internal
temperature. When the compressor is new, it
requires a running-in period, which can last for up
to five months. During this period, it may be slightly
noisy. This is quite normal and does not represent
a fault.
WARNING
EARTHING THE APPLIANCE
The appliance must be earthed.
You must earth the fridge/freezer to prevent any power leakage or electric shock caused by cur-
rent leakage from the appliance.
• Never use gas pipes, telephone lines or other potential lightning rods as earths.
You are using a power plug without earth.
• Connect one end of the earthing wire (yellow/green or
green) to the earthing screw and the other end to a steel or
copper pipe, such as a water pipe.
