features of your new samsung dishwasher

Your new Samsung Dishwasher will change the way you feel about doing dishes. From its large capacity to its energy efﬁciency, your new Samsung dishwasher has all the features to make your chores much less mundane.

1. Powerful 3 washing spray arms spraying 6 ways

Your Samsung dishwasher has 3 spray arms - top, upper, and lower arms. All 3 of the 2-way washing spray arms powerfully spray cleaning water in a total of 6

directions to improve the washing performance.

2. Quadruple ﬁlter system

The quadruple ﬁlter system and the food ﬁltration device crushes food remains from the dishes, glasses, cooking pots and cutlery inside the dishwasher into small particles. Since food remains are crushed by stainless blades, then ﬁltrated, collected and picked out by the draining cycle, you do not need to worry about any food remains inside bowls and dishes. Your Samsung dishwasher has the best ﬁltration performance of dishwashers in its class.

This manual contains important information regarding the use and care of your new Samsung dishwasher. Refer to it for descriptions of the control panel, instructions on how to use the dishwasher, and tips for making the most of its state-of-the-art features and technologies. The cycle chart in the “Program overview” section offers an overview of the different cycles and the “Troubleshooting” section tells you what to do if something goes wrong.

safety information

Throughout this manual, you’ll see Warning and Caution notes. These important safety instructions do not cover all possible situations that might occur. It is your responsibility to use and caution when installing, maintaining, and operating your dishwasher. Samsung will not be liable for damages resulting from improper use.

death.

Hazards or unsafe practices that may result in personal injury or property damage.

To reduce the risk of ﬁre, explosion, electric shock, or personal injury when using your dishwasher, follow these basic safety precautions:

Do NOT attempt.

Do NOT disassemble.

Do NOT touch.

Follow directions explicity.

Unplug the power plug from the wall socket.

Make sure the machine is grounded to prevent electric shock.

Call the service center for help.

WARNING - When using the dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following:

Read all instructions before using the dishwasher.

As with any equipment using electricity, water and moving parts, potential hazards exist.

To safely operate this appliance, familiarize yourself with its operations and exercise care when using it.

Install and level your dishwasher on an uncarpeted ﬂoor that can support its weight.

Your dishwasher must be properly grounded. Never connect it to an ungrounded outlet.

See the “Meeting installation requirements” section for more information on grounding your dishwasher.

Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

safety information

Use only detergents or rinse agents recommended for use in a dishwasher, and keep them out of the reach of children.

After unpacking the dishwasher, keep the packaging out of the reach of children.

Locate sharp items so that they do not damage the door seal. Knives and other utensils with sharp points must be loaded in the basket with their points facing downwards or placed in a horizontal position.

Do not wash plastic items unless they are marked “dishwasher safe” or the equivalent thereof. For plastic items that are not marked in this way, check the manufacturer’s recommendations.

Do not operate the dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place.

Do not tamper with the controls.

Do not abuse, sit, or stand on the door, lid, or dish baskets of the dishwasher.

Do not put pressure on the door when it is open as this may damage the dishwasher or result in injury.

Take care when opening the door, as hot water may splash onto your hand.

Do not install this dishwasher under the power outlet or place the extension cord on the dishwasher.

Do not expose the unit to rain or moisture.

Do not expose the dishwasher to direct sunlight.

To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on the dishwasher.

To reduce the risk of ﬁre or explosion:

- Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period, before using the dishwasher turn on all hot water faucets and let the water ﬂow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is ﬂammable, do not smoke or use an open ﬂame during this time.

Disconnect the power cord (or disconnect the circuit breaker) before servicing your dishwasher.

Do not allow children to play in or on the dishwasher. They may harm themselves or damage the dishwasher.

Do not repair, replace, or service any part of your dishwasher yourself. Disassembly, repairs and modiﬁcations are permitted by authorized service technicians only. Work done by an unauthorized person may void your warranty.

Before disposing of your dishwasher, remove the door of the washing compartment or the door latch so that children or small animals do not get trapped inside.

Do not add any solvents into the dishwasher as this may result in an explosion.

Do not use industrial detergent.

Do not add dishwashing detergent into the rinse compartment.

In particular, keep the detergent dispenser dry when using the delay start function as it may become clogged up.

The dishwasher is extremely heavy. Do not attempt to move or carry the dishwasher by yourself. Two or more people are needed to move a dishwasher and avoid potential injuries.

If the power cord or plug is damaged, do not repair it yourself. Call a qualiﬁed person from the manufacturer or service company.

This appliance is not intended for use by young children or inﬁrm persons unless they have been adequately supervised by a responsible person to ensure that they can use the appliance safely. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Check the power supply, the water supply connection, and operate the product to check for malfunctions and water leaks when operating the installed product.

The appliance door should always be closed as this could allow people to walk into it.

This appliance is intended for domestic use, but can be used in similar locations such as:

- staff kitchen areas in shops, ofﬁces and other working environments;

- farm houses;

- by clients in hotels, motels and other residential type environments;

- bed and breakfast type environments.

The power plug must be accessible after the installation.

After the dishwasher is installed, check that the drain hose is properly connected and that there is no leakage from the hose connectors. If the drain hose is loose, it may cause property damage.

The water supply hose is susceptible to breakage. As time goes by, it becomes less ﬂexible. Check the line periodically. If it is swollen, torn, cut or there is a water leak, replace it immediately.

Do not put gasoline, solvents, or other ﬂammable materials inside the dishwasher. Do not wash dishes exposed to these materials.

Keep your dishwasher detergent out of the reach of children. Detergent has an adverse effect on human organs. It contains elements for polishing and is corrosive. Avoid letting the detergent come into contact with your skin and eyes.

Never use an extension cord.

CAUTION

When preparing for installation, ensure that your power supply offers:

supply valve to shut off completely. Alternatively, it may take the dishwasher longer to ﬁll than allowed by the controls, resulting in the dishwasher turning off. (A ﬁlling time limit, designed to prevent overﬂowing/ﬂooding if an internal line becomes loose, has been built into the controls.)

• Ensuring that water faucets are easily accessible.

• Turning off faucets when the dishwasher is not in use.

• Periodically checking for leaks on the water supply hose ﬁttings.
