SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: Cancer and Reproductive Harm - www.P65Warnings.ca.gov

WARNING

When using your dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following:

1. Read all instructions before using the dishwasher.

2. Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.

3. Use only detergents or wetting agents recommended for use in a dishwasher and keep

them out of the reach of children.

4. When loading items to be washed:

- locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal, and

- load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.

5. Do not wash plastic items unless they are marked “dishwasher safe” or the equivalent. For plastic items not so marked, check the manufacturer’s recommendations.

6. Do not touch the HEATING ELEMENT during or immediately after use.

7. Do not operate your dishwasher unless all ENCLOSURE panels are properly in place.

8. Do not tamper with the controls.

9. Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door or dish rack of the dishwasher.

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

11. 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 hotwater system has not been used for such a period, before using the dishwasher turn on all hot-water faucets and let the water ow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is ammable, do not smoke or use an open ame during this time.

12. Remove the door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding it.

Safety information

CAUTION

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

• 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.

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

• Do not install the dishwasher near electrical components. Keep the dishwasher away from open ames.

• Install and level your dishwasher on an uncarpeted oor that can support its weight.

• Your dishwasher must be properly grounded. Never connect it to an ungrounded outlet. See page 7 for more information on grounding your dishwasher.

• Connect the ground wire to the green ground connector in the terminal box.

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

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

• Do not put gasoline, solvents, or other ammable 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.

Meeting installation requirements

Electrical supply and grounding

WARNING

To prevent the risk of ﬁre, electric shock, or personal injury, all wiring and grounding must be done in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/FNPA, No. 70 Latest Revision and local codes and ordinances. It is the personal responsibility of the appliance owner to provide adequate electrical service for this appliance.

CAUTION

• Never use an extension cord.

• When preparing for installation, ensure that you provide:

- An individual branch circuit with a 120 V, 60 Hz, 15 AMP fuse or circuit breaker that

serves only your dishwasher .

• Your dishwasher must be grounded. If your dishwasher malfunctions or breaks down, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for the electric current.

WARNING

Never connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or hot water pipes.

English10

DW4000RM_DW50T6060US_AA_DD81-03054A-00_EN.indd 10 2020-05-08 �� 2:15:10

The hot water supply line pressure must be between 20-120 psi (140-830 kPa). Adjust your water heater to deliver water between 120 ˚F (49 ˚C) and 149 ˚F (65 ˚C).

NOTE

• Most plumbing supply stores sell water supply lines of various lengths up to 10 feet (305 cm) long.

• You can reduce the risk of leaks and water damage by:

- Making water faucets easily accessible.

- Turning off faucets when the dishwasher is not in use.

- Periodically checking for leaks at water supply line ﬁttings.

WARNING

Before using your dishwasher for the ﬁrst time, check all connections at the water supply valve and faucets for leaks.

Flooring

For safety, your dishwasher must be installed on a solidly constructed oor. Never install your dishwasher on a platform or poorly supported structure.

Your dishwasher must be properly installed in accordance with the Installation Guide before you use it. If you did not receive an Installation Guide with your dishwasher, you can obtain one by visiting our website at www.samsung.com.

Cleaning and care

Cleaning

Keep the dishwasher clean to improve performance, reduce unnecessary repairs, and lengthen the lifecycle.

Exterior

Clean spills on the surface of the dishwasher immediately. Use a soft, damp cloth on the control panel to gently wipe away spills and dust.

CAUTION

• Do not use benzene, wax, thinner, chlorine bleach, alcohol, or other chemical substances. These materials may discolour the surface of the dishwasher and cause stains.

• The dishwasher has electric parts inside. Do not spray water directly onto the dishwasher. Protect electrical components from water.

• For a stainless-steel door panel, use a stainless steel cleaner for home appliances and a clean, soft cloth.

Interior

Clean the interior of the dishwasher on a regular basis to remove any dirt or food particles. Wipe inside the dishwasher and inside the door with a wet dishcloth.

CAUTION

• Do not remove the front seal (the long rubber seal enclosing the opening of the dishwasher). The seal keeps the inner side of the dishwasher sealed.

• Use a damp cloth to remove lime scale or grease deposits inside the dishwasher. Alternatively, apply some detergent, and then run an empty cycle using the highest rinse temperature.

Nozzles

Cleaning the door

To clean the edge around the door, you should use only a soft cloth dampened in warm water.

Also, never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the outer surfaces. They will scratch the nish. Some papers towels can also scratch or leave marks on the surface.

WARNING

Never use a spray cleaner to clean the door panel. The spray can damage the door lock and electrical components. Do not use an abrasive cleaning agent or paper towels to clean the door. They can scratch the door or leave spots on the stainless steel surface.

Caring for the dishwasher

To clean the control panel, use a lightly dampened cloth then dry thoroughly. To clean the exterior, use a good appliance polish wax.

Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher.

Long-term care

If you will not use the dishwasher for an extended period of time, rst drain the unit completely, and then disconnect the water hose. Shut off the water supply valve and the circuit breaker. Water remaining in the hoses or the internal components can damage the dishwasher.

Cleaning and care

Protect against freezing

If your dishwasher is left in an unheated place during the winter:

1. Cut off electrical power to the dishwasher.

2. Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the water valve.

3. Drain water from the inlet pipe and water valve. (Use a pan to catch the water.)

4. Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve.

5. Remove the lter in the tub the bottom and use a sponge sop up any water.

How to maintain your dishwasher

After every wash

• After every wash, turn off the water supply to the appliance and leave the door slightly ajar so that moisture and odors are not trapped inside.

Remove the plug

Cleaning and care

• Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the socket.

No solvents or abrasive cleaners

• To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Use only a cloth and warm, soapy water. To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with water and a little white vinegar, or a cleaning product made specically for dishwashers.

When you go on vacation

• When you go on vacation, we recommend that you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and then unplug the power cord, turn off the water supply and leave the door of the appliance slightly ajar. This will help the seals last longer and prevent odors from forming within the appliance.

Moving the appliance

• If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in the vertical position. If absolutely necessary, it can be positioned on its back.

Seals

• One of the factors that causes odors to form in the dishwasher is food that remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.
