FAQs
How does SpaceMax™ Technology increase storage capacity?
SpaceMax™ Technology uses a specialized insulation system with thinner inner walls. This allows for more usable internal space without increasing the external dimensions of the refrigerator, offering greater storage capacity.
What is the benefit of Twin Cooling Plus™?
Twin Cooling Plus™ uses two independent cooling systems for the fridge and freezer. This precise temperature and humidity control prevents food odours from mixing between compartments and ensures optimal freshness for different types of food, like keeping vegetables crisp and ice cream from thawing.
How can AI Energy Mode help me save energy?
AI Energy Mode monitors your usage patterns and provides personalized tips through the SmartThings app to help you reduce energy consumption. It can suggest optimal settings based on your habits, potentially saving up to 10% on energy use.
Does this fridge require manual defrosting?
No, this refrigerator features Total No Frost technology for both the fridge and freezer compartments, which prevents frost buildup and eliminates the need for manual defrosting.
What is the warranty on the compressor?
The Digital Inverter Compressor comes with a 20-year parts warranty, offering exceptional reliability and peace of mind for the core component of the refrigerator.
Can I control the refrigerator remotely?
Yes, through the SmartThings app, you can monitor and control various settings of your refrigerator remotely, provided it is connected to your home Wi-Fi and you have a Samsung account.
What is the noise level of this fridge?
The noise level of this refrigerator is rated at 40 dB, which is considered relatively quiet and suitable for most home environments, including open-plan living spaces.
Troubleshooting
Refrigerator is not cooling
Check if the power cord is plugged in and the circuit breaker is on. Ensure the temperature settings are correct and that the doors are closing properly. Check for any obstructions around the air vents.
Excessive noise
Ensure the refrigerator is level. The normal operation sounds may include the compressor or fan. Check if items inside are vibrating against each other or the walls. If the noise is unusual or persistent, contact customer support.
Water leaking inside or outside the unit
Check the defrost drain for blockages. Ensure the refrigerator is level. If an icemaker is installed, verify the water supply line is correctly connected and not leaking.
Ice buildup in the freezer
Ensure the 'No Frost' function is enabled and the doors are closing tightly. Avoid overpacking the freezer, which can obstruct airflow. If the problem persists, it may require manual defrosting or professional inspection.
SmartThings app not connecting
Verify your Wi-Fi connection is active. Ensure the refrigerator is within Wi-Fi range. Try restarting both your router and the refrigerator. Confirm you are logged into your Samsung account.

- Condenser Coils: For optimal performance, vacuum the condenser coils at the back or bottom of the refrigerator at least twice a year. This helps maintain efficiency.
- Door Seals: Wipe the door seals periodically to ensure a tight seal, which prevents cold air leakage.
