Samsung RF263BEAEBC/AA-04 refrigerator Parts

The Samsung RF263BEAEBC bottom-mount refrigerator has a total capacity of 24.6 cubic feet. For the exact capacity breakdown by compartment (refrigerator vs. freezer), we recommend confirming the specifications in the owner's manual.

Capacity details you can expect

Total capacity is the combined usable space across both compartments. On most Samsung bottom-mount models like RF263BEAEBC, capacity is typically split between the fresh food section and the freezer drawer.

• Total capacity: 24.6 cu. ft.
• Includes both refrigerator and freezer storage
• Usable space can vary slightly based on shelves, bins, and the ice room
• Overpacking can reduce airflow and make the unit cool unevenly

Quick reference table

Spec	What it means	Why it matters
Total capacity (cu. ft.)	Combined refrigerator + freezer volume	Helps compare models and plan storage
Refrigerator section	Fresh food storage area	Impacts day-to-day organization
Freezer section	Bottom drawer storage area	Impacts bulk and long-term storage

Why it matters

Knowing the cubic feet helps you compare replacement refrigerators, plan kitchen storage, and understand how features like an ice maker or large bins can affect usable space and airflow.

If your Samsung RF263BEAEBC refrigerator is not making ice, the most common causes are restricted water flow (often a clogged filter), a problem with the water inlet valve, or an ice maker/ice room issue such as freezing or a jam. Use the owner's manual to confirm the correct ice maker settings and reset steps for your exact configuration.

Quick checks we recommend first

• Make sure the ice maker is turned on and the ice bin is seated fully.
• Confirm the freezer is cold enough; setpoint is typically around 0°F for normal ice production.
• Dump old ice and check for clumped cubes that can block the ejector.
• Check the fill tube and ice room area for frost or an ice blockage.
• Replace the water filter if flow at the dispenser is slow or the filter is overdue.

Parts that commonly fix “no ice” on this model

Restricted water flow or a valve that is not opening fully can stop ice production.

Symptom	Most likely area	Part to consider
Slow water at dispenser and no/slow ice	Clogged filter	Refrigerator water filter DA29-00019A
No water entering ice maker but dispenser may still work	Water supply valve issue	Refrigerator water inlet valve DA62-04027A
Ice maker freezes up or stops cycling	Ice maker assembly/service components	Refrigerator ice maker service kit DA82-02697A

Why it matters

An ice maker needs steady water pressure, proper freezer temperature, and a clear ice path. A partially clogged filter or a sticking inlet valve can reduce fill volume just enough that the ice maker never completes a harvest cycle.

To turn off the ice maker on your Samsung RF263BEAEBC refrigerator, press and hold the Ice Maker button for about 3 seconds until the ice maker turns off. This stops ice production but keeps the freezer cooling normally; see the exact control-panel behavior in the owner's manual.

Quick steps (control panel)

• Make sure the doors are closed so the controls respond normally.
• Press and hold Ice Maker for about 3 seconds.
• Confirm the ice maker shows OFF (indicator light or display message varies by version).
• Empty the ice bin if you want to prevent clumping.
• Leave the ice maker off for at least a few hours if you are troubleshooting slow or no ice.

If the button does not respond

These checks fix most “won’t turn off” complaints on RF263BEAEBC units.

• Disable Control Lock/Child Lock first (if enabled).
• Power-cycle the refrigerator: unplug for 2 minutes, then restore power.
• Check that the dispenser area is not stuck or obstructed.
• Reseat the ice bin fully; a mis-seated bin can cause odd ice maker behavior.
• If the ice maker is freezing up repeatedly, follow why your Samsung fridge stopped making ice and how to fix it.

What “ice maker off” changes (and what it does not)

Item	What happens when ice maker is OFF	What still works
Ice production	Stops cycling and filling	Freezer cooling continues
Water dispenser	No change	Dispenses water normally
Ice already in bin	Can melt/clump over time	You can remove and dump it

Why it matters

Turning the ice maker off helps prevent overflow, clumped ice, and repeated freeze-ups when you are away, shutting off the water supply, or diagnosing water inlet and ice-room issues.
