Installing and Using CO
2
Cylinders
• Purchasing CO
2
Cylinders (60L)
USE ONLY SODASTREAM carbonators (or CO
2
cylinders (60L)). SAMSUNG and SODASTREAM
will not be legally responsible for any damage,
including, but not limited to, property damage
caused by gas leakage from the use of a generic
carbonator (or CO
2
cylinder (60L)).
The sparkling water system of SAMSUNG
Refrigerators is designed to work ONLY WITH
SODASTREAM carbonators (or CO
2
cylinders
(60L)).
• Water Tube Hookup
Connect the white hose on the back of the
refrigerator to water before installing the cylinder.
Installing a Cylinder in the Fridge
To install a cylinder in the refrigerator, follow these
steps:
1. Open the Cylinder Cover.
2. Attach the Cylinder to the Regulator,
and then rotate it clockwise.
3. Push the Cylinder into the Support.
4. Lock the Cylinder into place by
pressing the Lever.
• If you don’t lock the cylinder
into place, the refrigerator won’t
produce sparkling water.
5. Press the Sparkling Water button for 3 seconds to
turn the Cylinder Reset function on.
• If you replace the CO
2
Cylinder during Sparkling
Water Production (when the Carbonation Level
Icons light up in rotation: 1 → 2 → 3 → 1. etc.), wait
until the refrigerator completes production before
turning the Cylinder Reset function on.
Because you interrupted production, the sparkling
water may be over carbonated. If you want accurate
carbonation level in the next production, you need to
empty the tank before you start production.
Because the first 2 glasses of sparkling water
dispensed after installation may contain residual
substances, throw them out.
For information about dispensing sparkling water,
see Operating Your French Door Refrigerator.
Storing Extra Cylinders
Store extra cylinders in a cool, open space, well
out of the reach of children.
If sparkling water is produced when the
internal refrigerator temperature or the
temperature of the CO
2
cylinder is high,
you may hear a “horn sound”.
When you turn on your refrigerator for
the fi rst time, you should not generate
sparkling water production until after
approximately 2 hours. When you
purchase a new CO
2
cylinder, be sure to
store it in a cool dry place until you are
ready to install it (23 ~ 68 °F (-5 ~ 20 °C)).
If the cylinder is stored in higher
temperatures, it may build up extra internal
pressure, which could create a “horn
sound” when sparkling water is produced.
Replacing a Cylinder
If the carbonation level is abnormally low, this
means the CO
2
cylinder is empty.
In this case, we recommend that you replace the
cylinder with a new one.
To replace a cylinder, follow these steps:
1. Lift up the Lever holding the cylinder
in place.
