Safety information

• Because these following operating instructions

cover various models, the characteristics of your

refrigerator may differ slightly from those described

in this manual and not all warning signs may be

applicable. If you have any questions or concerns,

contact your nearest service center or nd help and

information online at www.samsung.com.

• In order to avoid the creation of a ammable gas-air

mixture if a leak in the refrigerating circuit occurs, the

size of the room in which the appliance may be sited

depends on the amount of refrigerant used.

• Never start up an appliance showing any signs

of damage. If in doubt, consult your dealer. The

room must be 1 m³ in size for every 8 g of R-600a

refrigerant inside the appliance. The amount of

refrigerant in your particular appliance is shown on

the identication plate inside the appliance.

• Refrigerant leaking out of the pipes could ignite or

cause an eye injury. When refrigerant leaks from the

pipe, avoid any naked ames and move anything

ammable away from the product and ventilate the

room immediately.

- Failing to do so may result in re or explosion.

• It is an hazardous for anyone other than an

Authorised Service Person to service this appliance.

In Queensland – the authorized Service Person

• Do not store explosive substances such as aerosol

cans with a ammable propellant in this appliance.

• If the electrical socket does not match the refrigerator

plug, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its

service agent or similar qualied persons in order to

avoid a hazard.

• WARNING: To avoid a hazard due to the instability of

the appliance, it must be xed in accordance with the

instructions.

• Refrigerator should be placed against a wall with a

free distance not exceeding 75 mm.

• This appliance is not intended for use at altitudes

exceeding 2000 m.

• A specially grounded plug has been connected to the

power cable of your refrigerator. This plug should be

used with a specially grounded electrical socket of

16 amperes. If this type of socket is not available in

your house, please have it installed by an authorized

electrician.

• If your appliance uses R600a as a refrigerant (this

information will be provided on the label of the

fridge) you should take care during transportation

and installation to prevent the fridge elements from

being damaged. R600a is an environmentally friendly

and natural gas, but it is explosive. In the event of a

leak due to damage of the fridge elements, move your

fridge away from open ames or heat sources and

ventilate the room where the appliance is located for

a few minutes.
