way of the ice maker while opening/closing
the door, causing damage to the ice maker.
Note that the ice cubes in the ice bucket
may spill out over the drawer when
CAUTION
removing the ice bucket from the drawer.
If this is the case, be sure to clear the ice
cubes that spilled out of the drawer.
If a power failure occurs, ice cubes may
melt then freeze together when the power

comes back on, causing the dispenser to
be out of order.
To prevent this problem, after a power failure, pull
out the ice bucket and discard the residual ice or
water.
If you use all the ice at once, you must
repeat Steps 2 and 3 on the previous page.
However, only wait 8 hours before dispensing the
first 4 to 6 ice cubes. This will replenish the ice
cubes and ensure maximum ice production.
Using the ice off Function
When you select the Ice Off mode, remove all ice
cubes from the bucket. If you are not using the ice

time:
-
Close the water valve. Otherwise, water
leakage may occur.
-
Remove all food.

Do not try to disassemble the ice maker.
Do not wash or spray the ice bucket with water
while it is in the refrigerator. Remove it to clean
it.
When you insert the Ice maker tray, be
sure that the tray is well centered at the
CAUTION
entrance.
Otherwise, the tray may be stuck.
Water clouding phenomenon
All water provided to the refrigerator flows
through the core filter which is an alkaline
water filter. In the filtering process, the
pressure of the water that has flowed out
of the filter is increased, and the water
becomes saturated with oxygen and
nitrogen. When this water flows out into
the air, the pressure plummets and the
oxygen and nitrogen get supersaturated,
which results in gas bubbles. The water
may temporarily look misty or cloudy due
to these oxygen bubbles. After a few
seconds, the water will look clear.

My refrigerator is not cold enough. I clicked on the Fridge controls and it looks like according to the temperature that it should be cold (around 7 C) but it still does not feel cold enough. What do I do? Model # RF263BEAESR/AA
If your Samsung RF263BEAESR refrigerator is not cold enough despite the correct temperature setting, try the following steps:
- Ensure the refrigerator is not in direct sunlight or near a heat source.
- Check that the back of the refrigerator is at least 2 inches away from the wall for proper ventilation.
- Verify that the set temperature on the digital display is colder than the inner temperature. If not, adjust it to a lower setting.
If the issue persists, further troubleshooting may be needed.

The ice maker is not dispensing ice. It is not manually off
The ice maker on the Samsung RF263BEAESR refrigerator may not be dispensing ice due to ice buildup, which is a common problem with this model. The document describes that the ice maker frequently ices up, preventing proper function. To address this, the refrigerator can be forced into defrost mode by pressing and holding the Energy Saver and Fridge buttons for 8–10 seconds, then selecting "FD" for forced defrost. If the issue persists, replacing the ice maker may be necessary.
