Manual defrost appliances require unplugging to melt ice naturally, but offer more space, lower energy consumption, and lower cost without the internal heating element. Frost-free appliances regulate temperature to prevent ice build-up automatically. Automatic defrost systems use a timer to circulate heat and prevent ice accumulation, while adaptive defrost systems use sensors to determine the optimal times for heat circulation.)

Q: What exactly is the difference between RF217ACRS and RF217ACPN?

A: the RS is Real Stainless steel and the PN is the matte stainless look. The PN is magnetic whereas the RS is not. Most stainless steel appliances will not display magnets. The PN is also more matte and does not show as many fingerprints. It looks cleaner and is cheaper than its stainless steel counterpart.

Q: is the door stainless steel or just stainless steel color

A: This is a platinum unit... it is a stainless "look", but is not stainless. Best Buy does not carry the stainless version, but other Big-Box warehouses do, if you look around.

Q: How wide should the openning be for opening the french doors? Our space is 32 1/2 inches with a wall on one side and lower countertop cabinet the othe

A: The RF217ACPN is 32-1/4" wide, and Samsung recommends leaving about 1" on either side, as well as 2" above and behind the refrigerator to allow sufficient air flow for the cooling system to work properly and most efficiently. Since the door is opening into a wall, you would really need 3-3/4" on that side for the handles to clear so the door could open at least 90-degrees and provide unobstructed access to the crisper drawer. Thank you for considering Samsung, Ms. Samsung

Q: Does it have an internal water dispenser, to fill a drinking glass?

A: No internal water dispenser. Just an icemaker.

Q: Are the shelves in the refrigerator adjustable?

A: The positions of the top and bottom shelves of the RF217ACPN are fixed, but the middle shelf has three possible positions. Thank you for the question! Ms. Samsung

Q: does samsung make samsung or is it someone else with the name only

A: Samsung's RF217ACPN refrigerator is made by Samsung. Thank you for the question, Ms. Samsung

Q: what is the dimension of the unit when the freezer drawer is fully pulled out?

A: The RF217ACPN is 48-1/2" deep from the back of the unit to the front of the handle with the freezer drawer fully extended. Thanks for the question! Ms. Samsung

Q: Does this model come with a water filter?

A: There is no filter included but the manual explains how to hook up one if you want to purchase it seperately.
