GETTING READY TO INSTALL THE REFRIGERATOR

Congratulations on the purchase of your Samsung Side-By-Side Refrigerator. We hope you will enjoy the 
many state-of-the-art features and efficiencies that this new appliance has to offer.

Selecting the best location for the refrigerator

Select a location with easy access to the water supply.

Select a location without direct exposure to sunlight.

Select a location with level (or nearly level) flooring.

Select a location with enough space for the refrigerator doors to open easily.

Allow sufficient space to install the refrigerator on a flat surface.

- If your refrigerator is not level, the internal cooling system may not work correctly.
- Overall space required in use. Refer to drawing and dimension as below.

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 50°F (10°C).

Make sure you disconnect the water supply line BEFORE removing the freezer door. 
See the next section on “Separating the Water Line” to avoid damage.
