PROBLEM SOLUTION

The Refrigerator does not
work at all or it does not chill
sufficiently.
• Check that the power plug is properly connected.
Is the temperature control on the display panel set to the correct temperature?
Try setting it to a lower temperature.
• Is the Refrigerator in direct sunlight or located near a heat source?
Is the back of the Refrigerator so close to the wall that air cannot keep circulating?
(Refer to page
13
for the best location.)
The food in the
Refrigerator is frozen.
Is the temperature control on the display set to the correct temperature?
Try setting it to a warmer temperature.
• Is the temperature in the room too low?
Did you store the food too close to the air vent at the back of the Refrigerator? Move the
food away from the air vent.
You hear unusual noise or
sounds.
• Check that the Refrigerator is level and stable.
Is the back of the Refrigerator too close to the wall and therefore keeping air from
circulating?
• Was anything dropped behind or under the Refrigerator?
A “ticking” sound is heard from inside the Refrigerator. It is normal and occurs because
various accessories are contracting or expanding according to the temperature of the
Refrigerator interior.
When the automatic ice maker is on, ice is made in the ice container. After the ice is
made, the container inverts and the ice falls into the storage compartment and water
flows through the water valve. These operations cause noise at regular intervals, but that
noise is normal.
The front corners and
vertical hinged section of
the appliance are hot and
condensation is occurring.
Some heat is normal as anti-condensators are installed in the vertical hinged section of
the Refrigerator to prevent condensation.
Is the Refrigerator door ajar? Condensation can occur when you leave the door open for
a long time.
Ice Maker is not producing
ice.
• Did you wait for 12 hours after installation of the water supply line before making ice?
• Is the water line connected and the shut-off valve opened?
• Did you manually stop the ice making function?
• Is the Freezer temperature too warm? Try setting the Freezer temperature lower.
You hear water bubbling in
the Refrigerator.
This is normal. The bubbling comes from the Refrigerator coolant liquid circulating
through the Refrigerator.
There is a bad smell in the
Refrigerator.
• Check for spoiled food.
• Foods with strong odors(for example, fish) should be tightly covered.
• Clean out your Freezer periodically and throw away any spoiled or suspicious food.
Frost forms on the walls of
the Freezer.
• Is the air vent blocked? Remove any obstructions so air can circulate freely.
• Allow sufficient space between the foods stored for efficient air circulation.
• Is the Freezer drawer closed properly?
Water dispenser is not
functioning.
(Water dispenser models
only)
• Is the water line connected and the shut-off valve opened?
Has the water supply line tubing been crushed or kinked?
Make sure the tubing is free and clear of any obstruction.
Is the water tank frozen because the Refrigerator temperature is too low?
Try selecting a warmer setting on the main display panel.

To fix the handle on the door of the Samsung RF18HFENBSR refrigerator, you will need a 4mm hex wrench. Insert the hex wrench into the shaft of the middle hinge and adjust the height by turning the hex wrench clockwise or counterclockwise. After adjusting the doors, insert the supplied fastener using pliers in the gap between the hinge-grommet and the middle hinge. The number of fasteners you'll need to insert depends on the gap. Please note that two fasteners are enclosed with the refrigerator, and the thickness of each fastener is 0.04 inches.

Ice maker control indicates “ice/off” , but no button to turn it on. Do I press the same button to turn on the ice maker?

No, you should not press the same button to activate the ice maker. The "Ice Off" button is used to turn off the ice-making function. If you want to activate the ice maker, you should press the appropriate button for ice production, which may be labeled differently on your refrigerator model.
