STORING FOOD IN THE FRIDGE OR FREEZER
Freezer drawer
• You can store packed frozen foods, like ice cream and
bacon.

suitably sized portions.
• Can be used to store meat and dry foods. Stored food
should be wrapped securely using foil or other suitable
wrapping materials or containers.
B. Freezer
Wrapping food
Pack the food in suitably sized portions for your household.
Vegetable and fruit portions should be no heavier than 2 pounds, while meat portions can be up to 5.5 lbs.
Smaller portions freeze quickly and the quality is better maintained when defrosting and preparing the food.
It is important to seal food in airtight bags or containers before freezing to prevent it from losing its taste or dehydrating.
Wrap the food, then press out any air and seal it airtight.
Suitable wrapping materials:
Plastic bags, cling-film, aluminium foil and freezer containers.
Unsuitable wrapping materials:
Wrapping paper, wax paper, cellophane, bin bags or used carrier bags.
These can cause odors.
Suitable sealing materials:
Rubber bands, plastic clips, string, freezer tape or similar.
Plastic film and bags may be heat-sealed using a special sealing iron or press.
Before placing a package in the freezer, it should be clearly labelled with the contents and the date of freezing.

ICE MAKER
The ice maker will produce 8 cubes per cycle – approximately 100~130 cubes in a
24-hour period, depending on freezer compartment temperature, room temperature,
number of door openings and other use conditions.
Throw away the first few batches of ice to allow the water line to clear.
Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep of the feeler arm.
When the bin fills to the level of the feeler arm, the icemaker will stop producing ice.
After the icemaker has been turned on again, there will be a time delay before the
icemaker resumes operations.
It is normal for several cubes to be joined together.
If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will become cloudy, taste stale and shrink.
So if you don't want to make ice, press the Ice Off button.
• The refrigerator can only use ice makers which are made by Samsung Electronics.
• The ice-maker can only be installed by Samsung or its service agent.
Note
Feeler Arm
Danger of explosion
• Glass bottles containing liquids that can freeze should never be stored in the freezer as the glass will explode.
