If your space is exactly 35 3 4 wide i would suggest considering an alternate narrower model.

Samsung french door refrigerator next to wall.

The space between the refrigerator and sidewall allows the appliance cool. But you may not realize that if the door of your unit opens. Use the two panels on the sides they are usually 1 1 2 that will leave you with 33 for your fridge and you will be 1 1 2 away from the wall so the door can open freely. All samsung refrigerator models requires a minimum distance of 50mm for the sides and rear of the fridge and 100mm from the top of the fridge.

The maytag manual says i need a minimum of 3 3 4 between the fridge and the wall to allow the door to swing open and the electrolux data specification sheet says absolute 4 1 2 minimum clearance will only allow for 90 degree door swing which will provide drawer crisper access with retricted removal. All measurements on this page use the australian metric system. The free space measurements refer to the distance between the fridge and cabinets or other objects. French door refrigerators are easier to use next to a wall but they need room.

Put in a small 3 4 filler and be able to open the fridge a little more than 90 degrees but still not all the way. Most manufacturers recommend 1 inch of space around the refrigerator. Samsung recommends leaving at least 2 on the side of the rs25j500dsr that would be opening into a wall and 3 8 minimum on the other side for circulation ease of movement and to allow the doors to swing open. Thankfully the freezer on the bottom keeps running ok.

I would like to move my samsung french door refrigerator away from the wall to clean it in back the top compartment is overheating and shutting down.
