Samsung Fridge: How to Change the Temperature
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 14 ต.ค. 2024
- I thought I make this video to answer a number of questions on how to change the temperature on the Samsung Fridge. The one I have in particular with the French door model that was purchased in 2019.
In order to change any of the temperatures or reset the water filter, you'll need to unlock the panel first. The panel is designed to be child-proof so the kid wouldn't be able to change the temperature and spoil the food in the fridge.
In this video, I'll show how easy it is to unlock the panel and change the temperature of the main fridge area, 2nd drawer, and freezer as well.
The video was filmed on: Model # RF28R7201SR (stainless steel)
(Paid links)
The filter can be purchased here:
Samsung Genuine DA97-17376B Refrigerator Water Filter, 1-Pack

Please consult your fridge manual for the exact filter to purchase before purchasing.
Please help me with a thumbs up if this helped you so other people can see it also. If you like to leave a comment to give suggestions or help others.
Thanks for watching in advance.
Hi mate my Samsung refrigerator is working but the freezer keeps on changing temperature I set it to -25 but it changes to 5 I have watched numerous videos but still nothing struggling to troubleshoot aswell
The displayed temp is the current temperature. If you changed temp, it will take time to reach that temp so it will show the current temp only. th-cam.com/video/W0wnOjE19Ac/w-d-xo.html
Facts
Same
Same!
Same!!
I never imagined that I'd live in a world where I have to look up a tutorial for how to set the temperature on my own fridge.
🤣🤣exactly
Same
Lol same here 😂
Lol same
Annoying
Why can't Samsung make such a video??!! Thank you for explaining in lay terms. We appreciate it.
Wow! The manual starts with, "Press Fridge repeatedly..." They should put this in the manual or link to your video. Thanks!
Glad it helped!
Samsung manuals are USELESS. They make one generic one for ALL models - they are so lazy! They don't even make one tutorial video for each model. They make one tutorial video for ALL models. @samsung
Yes the manual didn’t say to hold the alarm button! Thank you!
@@netman88I don't know which is the best temperature for the fridge and the freezer
The manual was not real clear but your TH-cam made it easy to understand and I was able to make the adjustment in 30 seconds. THANKS! I just purchased my refrigerator so this helped us with the final set up.
Wow, that took all of 30 seconds to figure it out thanks to you! I went through the app thing because it kept showing up when I held the fridge button so I thought that was the only way to do it. I couldn’t get the fridge to sync and was very frustrated because I couldn’t lower the freezer temp. Thank you for posting!
Thank you so much! We just bought a new Samsung fridge after having 2 Kenmore lemons but couldn't figure out from the manual how to adjust the temp. Loved the way you made it easy to follow.
How is the fridge holding up
@@bangboxing407 It's doing well!
@@georgebentley4421 Ok ty we just got one but now I'm hearing bad things. Hopefully ours turns out good also
I was going crazy trying to change the temperature, for a moment I thought it was damaged, the instruction manual doesn't help. Thank you!!
I was about to flip out trying to adjust the temperature on my new fridge. I thought it was broken. The manual says nothing. Thank you.
Thank you for this video! The manual doesn't address this!
Thank you,I would of never figured it out in the big book they give you, this video absolutely helped me out in a matter of seconds, ty again 😊
I am a new owner of a Bespoke fridge but the manual didn't tell us to unlock the panel first in order to set the temperature. I kept pressing the Flex Zone button for 10 secs and more and I couldn't get it to change temp. I thought my unit was malfunctioning and was about to call customer support for a service call until I found your video. Thank you for the informative video, I would never have figured out how to get the panel to work.
Thank you for posting the instructions. The manual doesn't specify to unlock before changing the temperature. I hit the Fridge button repeatedly per manual instructions and all I got was the "AP" indicator.
thank you so much !!! i was pressing on the door trying to find a secret button . i didnt realize the control panel was inside . youre a life saver
You are welcome!
The manual noted this as well: A few seconds after setting the temperature, the displayed temperature will return to the current interior temperature. It can take up to 4 hours for the display to change to the temperature you have set and up to 28 hours for the refrigerator to actually achieve that temperature, if the doors are not opened.
Omg the temp set up change the freezer no more 3 degrees celcius and the fridge no more 19 degrees celcius what happen to my refrigerator digital is there any idea?
The manual needs to start with “hold down the alarm button to unlock the settings!”
Quite non intuitive, poor manual instructions, and pretty much annoying. Thanks for the video!
You are awesome! Just got mine a couple hours ago and the owners manual isn’t helpful. I don’t know why I would ever need a lock and wish it didn’t have one but at least I have it working now. Thanks friend!
Couldn’t find my darn manual, you definitely earned a subscribe.
Thank you so much! We just got our refrigerator delivered and had no idea how to set it. No manual, other displays online didn't look like ours.
Glad I could help!
Thanks ! Just got my new fridge and this video was very helpful, because the operating manual is not very detailed about this.
You're welcome!
From Lisa (rich's wife :) ) Thank you so much for making this video! I had no idea about unlocking the fridge first; there's absolutely nothing about that in the manual. Thanks again!!
You're very welcome!
Thank you. I just got a new flexzone fridge yesterday and couldn't change the flex setting. Super helpful!!!
Thank you so much! I was ready to shoot my new fridge because the manual is useless and does not explain this at all. your video made it very clear. Now can you explain why the water from the dispenser is not cold?
I'm not sure the setup you have there. Once the water dispenser inside the fridge is used up it will take 15-20 minutes to get cold water given it will need to get water from the exterior source.
@@netman88 thank you for that quick response. I’ll keep an eye on the time.
Thank you for this video it was very helpful 👍🏾
You’re welcome 😊
Thanks my new Refrigerator was giving me a big headache. But thanks for your video I got it
You helped me out! Just what I needed. Thanks for posting!
Glad I could help!
Thank you so much! My family will be thrilled our new fridge can finally have a lower temp than what the factory pre-set was (38 degrees).
Congrats on your new fridge !!!
Thank you Sir, you made a very good instructional video on this 2019 Samsung fridge, I was struggling after I saw your video TWO THUMBS UP !!!
Great to hear!
We have tried many ways on trying to get the Samsung ice maker work but still in vein, we have turn off the main power switch even there is no ice residual and restarted by pressing the small button located at the ice box area with temperature at 0 degree but still can't produce the ice, we have also replace a new filter. The cold water will dispatch well but still no ice. Could you kindly advice on any other possibly issue that we have over look. Appreciated.
@@djokotandiono7599 Can you look if you can see if there are ice in the ice tray inside the compartment? If no ice there, time to look for parts or call an appliance repair.
@@netman88 Ok thank you
Thank you so much for this tutorial. Now to figure out how to remove the ice bin.
Thank you for your video. Saved a lot of stress
Glad to help
Thank you! The manual is not helpful but your video is!
Glad to hear that!
Thank you! Couldn't figure it out from the manual
You are welcome!
Thank you!! I couldn't figure it out alone
Thanks man. Too smart for uts own good. Thanks Samsung. The audible sounds are nice though.
Thank you .. couldnt get it to chamge the temp until i watched your video
Thank you so much for this easy to understand video. You saved my husband from going nuts! Lol...
Thank you! I finally know how to change the temp now.:) Can you let me know if there's a way to turn the fridge on or off on the menu?
Thank you. This vídeo helped.me to resolver an importante issue, to change from F to C. ManuL say to press 3 seconds cool select zone but the key for first time Users is to Unlock the panel first.
Very helpful, thank you!! 😊
Yw
Nice demonstration Thanks very much
Glad you liked it
Thank you I will try this tomorrow.
Glad to see that it takes a while for change to occur. Main reason I did this is my icemaker is making only crushed while set on "Cube". I read that freezer may be too cold. Mine was on -4 F..I set to "O" as it noted this could cause crushed only.. we'll see. If this doesnt work then what? Great video
If too cold, raise the temperature to next level. Thanks
@@netman88 how do you turn the temp back up? I set it to -8 by accident I want it down to -5. I hit the button but it keep lowering it.
@@melinadeanne2680 Keep on pressing it,. it will cycle back to the previous one.
Hi, another big Thank you!. As others have said - why is this info not in the manual or a quick start page?
Thank you for this video!!!😊
Any time!
Thank you 🙏🏻 your video helped me a lot😊
Thank you for this video. Is there any way to change temperature for Water Dispenser?
YW. No way to change that water dispenser temperature though.
300 million thanks!
Thank you so much .your video is very helpfull
Glad to help
Thank you! Without your video.. I would've threw this fridge out my back door!
Thank you so much! Life saver!!
You are helping so much just right now!!!!!!!
This was so helpful!! Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much!
You're welcome!
Love your videos there so helpful
Thank you so much this was so helpful. Left it overnight as we just bought it and all was good. However, my freezer temp light is blinking and I don't know why. Any idea?
Did you setup the freezer temp?
@@netman88 yes; we set it to 0 and it went to 0 but it's blinking at 0 and not sure why; the fridge is set to 37 but isn't blinking at all just the freezer
@@jess_aliciahernandez1789 Maybe check back later to see if it stops blinking given it's setup but have not reached that temp.
Thanks. Very helpful. Their paper instruction manual doesn't mention the door lock to change temps.
Thank you for this. 😊 My refrigerator is set 37. I think it can be colder. What's a good temperature? Also what's a good temperature for the flex zone which I feel could be cooler. Thanks. 😊
Good temperature depends on your climate in the area. The temperature in my fridge works well for us
Very helpful...thank you!
Thank you, it drove me nuts
You're welcome!
Thank you!
Thanks 🙏 great video,the manual was a waste of time. My fridge temperature is on 34 f and the food gets icy in the back, what would be a suggested temperature to change it to? Please help 😊thnx
Try to raise the temp higher than 34 f. Is 37 f the next level?
@@netman88 options 35f 36f and so on it goes up a degree I set it to 36f we shall see. Thnx
Hello there, thank you so much for making this video, it really helped me and my family out a lot. One thing though; I did what you said to do in the video, and the temperature did change back eventually and fix itself, however, now on the either side of my refrigerator it seems to get rather warm, id even say that Its hot in some areas. What does this mean? My refrigerator never had this heating up on the side issue before this point, and was wondering if this was something I should worry about? Thank you.
Yw, glad to help.
If you change the temperature on the display, it will go back to show the current temperature until the new temp is reached. I can explain it more in this video: th-cam.com/video/W0wnOjE19Ac/w-d-xo.html
If your fridge isn't cooling the food inside, it's a problem. Not sure about heating up one side really matters if it's cool inside the fridge.
Thanks buddy, I appreciate it
Any time
Thanks that was what I needed
Thank you!! We could not figure this out and plus our fridge was on demo mode.
You're welcome!!
thank you very much for your help
Thank you for the help in changing the temp, it about drove me nuts, but now I cannot get it to change from celsius to fahrenheit, what am I doing wrong?
Here's how to do that, I just created a video to help: th-cam.com/video/8bISsArjf94/w-d-xo.html
What’s the coldest temp I can set for my two bottom freezers?
Thank you the manual was unclear, now can you say how to save the new temperature settings
You can set temperature and close the door, the settings save or lock the door panel.
Thanks, who do we reset this model of Samsung after a power outage?
Thanks! Quick help!
Thank you!!! Big help!
Thank you sooooo much!!!!!
AWESOME....THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH....
Thank you very much
You are welcome
Thank you Mr fridge man
Any time!
A MILLION THANKS!!!🥰
Thanks for info 👍🏼
No problem 👍
thank you that's was a great help.
Great video!! I have a question. My fridge is powered on and it is cold but...... that control panel is not light up and i am unable to adjust the setting. Any help would be appreciated it! 👍👍
Thanks. Maybe try to unplug the fridge for 10 mins before plugging back on to see if it helps.
Thank you
Does anyone know what temperature to make your freezer so it won't freeze your ice cream like cement? Mine is set at "0" right now. My old fridge just said "Colder" or "Warmer" LOL.
I subscribed because I have no idea what else I may need to know. Really appreciate your videos! I didn't even get a manual! But from other posted replies, it seems the manual isn't much help anyhow. :(
Not sure if it's the same model that I have. I think you would like to make it "warmer". It's probably too cold so the ice cream are frozen.
I have a deep freezer in my garage. Can I change the freezer temperature just like the refrigerator? So I can create more space for the holidays food.
Sure
hoping dropping the temperature helps keep the ice from melting and freezing back together so often, any thoughts in that reasoning?
Maybe it would help
Thank you!!!
You're welcome!
Thanks man 🤘🏼
hi there, for your ice maker, do you ever have to open the ice maker and chip away at ice blocks that might form?
Yes, encountered that once when no ice cubes came out.
yeah, and if you dont catch it in time it might get so bad you have to defrost the whole thing for a couple days just to get the ice tray out.
I have same model...6 months. I hear a lot of popping from back. Freezing up? 6/7 inches from wall in cubby. Howz yours holding up? Thx for simple quick lesson.
Our fridge is working fine, no issues. Maybe try to defrost.
Thank you
I just got this delivered yesterday to my home. The fridge is to cold. I was holding the fridge temp button only not the unlock button that’s why I couldn’t adjust it
Thanks for the help
Thanks again 👍🏼…
My pleasure!
THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH....
Very helpful
Really helps!
To the point. Thanks
Since day one our RF27T5241SR model has NOT been 34F inside; in fact it's more like 44F based on using a digital thermometer placed in various places internally and using a laser thermometer to check inside food and panel temps.
My old Samsung works perfect. I set it to 34F to keep food colder so it doesn't spoil too quickly AND the thermometer reads exactly 34F in many locations internally.
This newer RF27T5241SR model is about 2 weeks out of warranty (June 9, 2023) and now I'm thinking I should have made a service call many months ago. 😣
I've used the service menu on the old Samsung (now in the garage) and was hoping this model could be changed so that the fridge sets colder!??
The freezer works perfect!
Is that purchase or delivery date?
@@netman88 Delivery was June 11.
Are Samsung fridge factory set or do i need to set for new refrigerator
If I just installed my samsung refrigerator and did what you said on the temperature but for instance from 70 on the temp lowered to 40 and it changed the indicator back to 70 is that normal or how do i do it to stay in the temp I chose
It probably will take 12 hours to reach the new temperature. The temperature is the current temperature. The new temperature is what you setup.
Thanks man
Thanks!
Thank you so much I was going to throw my phone and need intensive amounts of therapy because I couldn't figure out how to change the temp I can't say thank you enough 😅
Glad I could help.
I have the digital I have the Samsung freezer I have the additional one up on the top what number do I put it on how many little stars do I put it at because it's either too cold or it's not cold enough I'm all mixed up I don't know how to do it
My specific model I just received yesterday RF28T5001 Samsung similar this one I lowered the freezer temperature to -8° and its blinking.? My question is why & also is that a good temp for the freezer? Tyia
-8 deg appears quite low. I set mines to 0 deg F. Blink probably means it's the new targeted temperature.
How do you make it save the new temp. Mine goes right back to wrong temp
mine too
The displayed temp is the current temp. Once it reach the new temp it will show it.
@@appleannwashington7466 The displayed temp is the current temp. Once it reach the new temp it will show it.
Mine too!
