1. PRECAUTIONS (SAFETY WARNINGS)

● Unplug the appliance before the changing or repairing the electric parts.
● Use rated electronic Control equipment.
➝ Make sure to check out ModeL name, Rated voltage, Rated current,
Operation Temp, etc.
● Upon repair, make sure that harnesses are not to be water-penetrated and
are bundled tight.
➝ Should not be detached by a certain amount of external force.
● Upon repair, completely remove dust or other foreign substances from
housing, harness, connector, etc.
➝ To prevent fire by tracking, short, etc.
● Check out whether water has penetrated into the electronic Control system.
➝ If there is any kind of trace, take necessary measures such as related
component change, insulation tapping, etc.
● After repair, check out the assembled state of parts.
➝ It should be the same as the previous state.
● Check out the surrounding conditions.
➝ Change the location, if the fridge is located at humid, wet places or the
installed state is unstable.
● In order to reduce the risk of electric shock the appliance must be properly
grounded.
● Do not allow consumers to overload a certain outlet.
● Check out whether the power cord or the outlet is broken, squeezed,
chopped off or heatdeformed.

3. DISASSEMBLY & REASSEMBLY


Precautions(Safety Warnings)

3-1. PRECAUTION

• Unplug the appliance before servicing or replacing electrical parts.


• Remove any foreign matter or dust from the power plug pins.
- Otherwise there is a risk of fire.
• Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end.
• Do not plug several appliances into the same multiple power board. The refrigerator should always
be plugged into its own individual electrical which has a voltage rating that matched the rating plate.
- This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits, which
could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.
• Do not install the refrigerator in a damp place or place where it may come in contact with water.
- Deteriorated insulation of electrical parts may cause an electric shock or fire.
• In order to reduce the risk of electric shock the appliance must be properly grounded.
• Do not put bottles or glass containers in the freezer.
- When the contents freeze, the glass may break and cause personal injury.
• Do not store volatile or flammable substances in the refrigerator.
- The storage of benzene, thinner, alcohol, ether, LP gas and other such products may cause
explosions.

1. Attach the lock clips (x2) to appropriate positions


under the sink, for instance.
Then, fix the lock clips firmly using screws.
2. I nsert the water filter into the upper and lower
clips in the correct direction.
Make sure to check the vertical direction of the
water filter.

NOTE
If the filter is installed horizontally, water may remain in
the filter. Therefore, vertical installation is recommended.

CAUTION
Do not mount the water filter on any part of the
refrigerator. This may damage the refrigerator.

Precautions(Safety Warnings)

■ Water filter replacement (applicable models only)

CAUTION
• D
 o not use third-party water filters. Use only Samsung-provided or -approved filters.
• U
 napproved filters may leak and damage the refrigerator, causing electric shock.
Samsung holds no responsibility for any damage that may occur from use of third party water filters.
• The filter indicator turns red as a reminder that lets you know it is time to replace the water filter.

1. S
 hut off the main water supply.
2. C
 onnect the water supply line to the inlet side of
the filter to the end.
3. C
 onnect the dispenser line to the outlet side of
the filter.

4. C
 heck if there is any leak. If not, fix the lines with
the clips.
5. P
 ut the water filter into place and fix it with the
clips.
6. P
 ress and hold Filter Reset for 3 seconds to reset
the filter lifecycle.
7. W
 hen replacing is complete, flush 10 litres of
water (or dispense the water for 6 - 7 minutes) to
remove impurities from the water line.

CAUTION
When adjusting the length of the water line tubing, make
sure to smooth out the cut surface at a right angle.
This is to prevent a water leak.

NOTE
• A
 newly installed filter may cause the water dispenser to spurt water briefly. This is because air has
entered the water line.
• T
 his replacement process may involve the refrigerator to drip water onto the floor. If this happens, wipe
up with dry cloths.

1) For example, if you want to change freezer compartment standard temperature to -2°C by operating option,
do as below. This function is for changing the standard temperature.
In -19°C of current temperature of freezer compartment, if you make the temperature lower to -2°C by the
option, the standard temperature would be controlled -21°C.
Therefore, if you change the setting of temperature option to -19°C on the panel, the appliance will be
operated with -21°C. It means that standard temperature is controlled -2°C less than setting temperature in
the display.

Basically, all the data in option has cleared from the factory.
Therefore, almost all setting value are "0".
But, some setting values could be changed for the purpose of improving performance.

Precautions(Safety Warnings)

4-5-6. When Fan does not operate

- This model has BLDC FAN motor. BLDC motor is driven by DC7~12V
- F-Fan motor usually runs together with the Compressor. Once the door is open and closed at high

take it as an error.

Note ◆ Possible Causes


1. Defective FAN-MOTOR
Pulse signal(FG) generated from the Fan motor rotation is transmitted through CN74 #9(F), #10(R), #11(C) 2. Contact problem at the terminal
Micom senses these signal. 3. FG signal error (Refer to Fan-Motor circuit in this manual)
If Micom senses no signal, Micom make Fan Motor stop for 10 sec and try to operate it again.
Micom keeps doing the same procedure 4 times until Micom receive the signal. ☞ Checking method of C-Fan motor voltage
If it still fails, MICOM stop trying for 10 minutes. - Read the voltage between MAIN PBA GND and CN74 #2
This procedure prevents the motor from overload when foreign substances such as ice built up - If it has 7~12 voltage, It's normal.

Precautions(Safety Warnings)

4-5-7. When the internal lamp of the freezer/fridge does not light up

Model with light bulb applied


Caution

1. Turn off the power for repair because there is risk of electric shock when replacing the internal lamp.
2. Please keep in mind you could get burnt by the excessive heating of an incandescent light bulb.
Reference

Internal lamp RELAY switches ON/OFF as the DOOR is OPEN/CLOSE.


When the internal lamp is not on, check the operating noise of the RELAY.
RELAY operation noise is generated every time as the DOOR is OPEN/CLOSE.

Reference
1. When the DOOR is open, the DOOR S/W becomes OPEN. Micom senses 5V from Door S/W and recognizes that
the Door is open. If 5V has sensed for more than 2 minutes, buzzer will sounds “DingDong” every 1 minute.
Therefore, if the DOOR S/W is defective, it can generate the “Ding Dong” sound every 1 minute.
2. ON/OFF control of the internal lamp is linked with the DOOR S/W.

1. PCB Power Supply : From the AC Input Voltage(115V/220V), it supplies DC 15V and 5V to the Inverter
circuit for the Compressor control.
2. COMP Driving / Feedback Circuit
It receives the COMP operation signals from the Main PBA and feedbacks the inverter errors to the
Main PBA.
3. Micom (MN103SFC2D)
4. BOOTSTRAP Charger : It is an independent power circuit for the driving of the IPM High-Phase IGBT.
5. Current Pickup Circuit : It pickups the currents taken by the Shunt resistance and does the PWM
DUTY control.
