Does this fridge require a water connection for the ice dispenser?
No, this model features a non-plumbed water and ice dispenser. It has an internal water tank that you fill manually.
How does AI Energy Mode work to save energy?
AI Energy Mode monitors your usage patterns and ambient conditions to automatically optimize the compressor speed and defrost cycles, aiming to reduce overall energy consumption. It requires connection to the SmartThings app.
What is the warranty on this Samsung fridge freezer?
The appliance comes with a 5-year warranty on parts and labour, and a 20-year warranty specifically on the Digital Inverter Compressor for added peace of mind.
Can I use the freezer compartment as a fridge compartment?

What is the noise level of this fridge freezer?
The noise level is rated at 37 dB, which falls within the C noise emission class. This is generally considered quiet for a refrigeration appliance.
How long will food stay fresh if there is a power outage?
In the event of a power failure, the 'Power Failure Safe' feature ensures that food remains fresh for up to 6 hours, helping to prevent spoilage.
Troubleshooting
Fridge/Freezer not cooling sufficiently
Check that the temperature settings are correct. Ensure the doors are closing properly and seals are clean. Verify that ventilation paths are not blocked. Allow time for cooling after initial setup or after adding large amounts of food.
Unusual noises (buzzing, clicking)
Some operational noises are normal. Buzzing can indicate the compressor running, and clicking may be the defrost timer. If noises are excessively loud or persistent, check if the unit is level or if components are touching the walls.
Water dispenser not working
Ensure the water tank is filled and correctly seated. Check for any kinks in the internal tubing (if accessible per manual). Make sure the dispenser lock function is not engaged.
Ice build-up in freezer
This model features Total No Frost, so significant ice build-up is unlikely. If it occurs, check door seals for damage or obstructions. Ensure the 'Fast Freeze' function is not left on unnecessarily.
App connectivity issues
Verify your home Wi-Fi network is operational. Ensure the fridge freezer is within range of the router. Restart both your router and the fridge's Wi-Fi connection. Check for app updates.

- Initial Cooling: Allow the fridge freezer to run empty for several hours (ideally 8-12) to reach its optimal operating temperature before loading it with food.
- Water Dispenser (Non-Plumbed): If using the water dispenser, fill the internal water tank according to the user manual's instructions. It is recommended to discard the first few batches of water and ice to clean the system.
- Wi-Fi Connection: To utilize SmartThings features, connect the appliance to your home Wi-Fi network via the SmartThings app. Follow the in-app instructions.

Care & Maintenance:
- Cleaning: Regularly clean the interior with a mild detergent and water solution. Use a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Wipe down door seals periodically. Clean the exterior with a damp cloth.
- Ventilation: Keep the ventilation areas around the appliance clear of obstructions to ensure efficient operation and prevent overheating.
- Water Filter (if applicable): While this model is non-plumbed, if a filter is present in the water tank, follow manufacturer guidelines for replacement. (Note: Product information does not specify a replaceable water filter for the tank itself).
- Energy Saving: Utilize AI Energy Mode and consider the 'Holiday function' when away for extended periods to reduce energy consumption.
