safety information

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.

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

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

WARNING

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 on a 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 fl ow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is fl ammable, do not smoke or use an open fl ame during this time.

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

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.

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

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

Your dishwasher must be properly grounded. Never connect it to an ungrounded outlet. See page 10 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 fl exible. Check the line periodically. If it is swollen, torn, cut, or there is a water leak, replace it immediately.

MEETING INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

Electrical supply and grounding

CAUTION

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.

Never use an extension cord.

When preparing for installation, ensure that you provide:

•An individual branch circuit with a 120 V, 60Hz, 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.

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

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

For a permanently connected appliance:

This appliance must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system, or an equipment-grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and then connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the appliance.

Water supply

The hot water supply line pressure must be between 20-120 psi (140-830 kPa).

Adjust the water heater to deliver water between 120 ˚F (49 ˚C) - 149 ˚F (65 ˚C).

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.

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

Flooring

For safety, your dishwasher must be installed on a solidly constructed fl 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.

USING DETERGENT

All dishwasher cycles require detergent in the detergent compartment.

Add the correct amount of detergent for the selected cycle to ensure the best performance.

CAUTION

Use dishwasher detergent only. Regular detergent produces too much foam, which may decrease the dishwasher’s performance or cause it to malfunction.

Do not swallow dishwasher detergent. Avoid breathing in the fumes. Dishwasher detergent contains irritants and caustic chemicals that can induce respiratory conditions. If you have swallowed dishwasher detergent or inhaled the fumes, seek medical attention immediately.

Keep dishwasher detergent out of the reach of children.

WARNING

Filling the detergent dispenser

1.Open the detergent dispenser fl ap by pushing the detergent dispenser release catch.

The fl ap is always open at the end of a dishwashing cycle.

2.Add the recommended amount of detergent to the main wash detergent compartment.

3.Close the fl ap by sliding it to the left and then pressing it down.

4.For better cleaning result, especially if you have very dirt items, pour a small amount (about 1/2 of an ounce or 15 g) of detergent onto the door.

Filling the rinse aid reservoir

When the Rinse Refi ll indicator lights up on the control panel, refi ll the reservoir with rinse aid. Your dishwasher has been designed to use liquid rinse aid only.

Using a powdered rinse aid will clog the reservoir opening and cause the dishwasher to malfunction.

Rinse aid improves the drying performance of the dishwasher.

Do not add regular detergent to the rinse aid reservoir.

CAUTION

1. Remove the rinse aid reservoir cap by rotating it counterclockwise.

2. Fill the rinse aid reservoir with rinse aid.

Use the viewing port when fi lling the rinse aid reservoir.

Do not fi ll the reservoir above the full level indicator.

CAUTION Excess rinse aid can overfl ow during the wash cycle.

3. Turn the rinse aid indicator dial to a number between 1 and 6. The higher the number, the more rinse aid the dishwasher uses. If you are unable to rotate the rinse aid dial easily, try using a coin.

4. Close the rinse aid reservoir cap by rotating it clockwise.

cleaning and maintaining your dishwasher

Keeping your dishwasher clean improves its performance, reduces unnecessary repairs, and lengthens its life.

CLEANING THE EXTERIOR

It’s best to clean spills on the outside of your dishwasher as they occur. Use a soft, damp cloth on the control panel to gently wipe away spills and dust. Do not use benzene, wax, thinner, chlorine bleach, or alcohol. These materials may discolor the inner walls and cause stains. Do not clean the dishwasher by sprinkling water over it and avoid letting water come into contact with any of the electrical parts.

If your dishwasher has a stainless steel door panel, you can clean it with a stainless steel cleaner for Home Appliances or a similar product using a clean, soft cloth.

CLEANING THE INTERIOR

Clean the interior of your dishwasher periodically to remove any dirt or food particles. Wipe the inside of the dishwasher and the inner part of the door with a wet dishcloth. We recommend fi lling the detergent dispenser with dish detergent, and then running the dishwasher empty periodically using either the Normal or Express 60 cycle with the sanitize option. This will keep your dishwasher clean.

If white spots and odor are still present in your dishwasher, run the Normal cycle with the dishwasher empty and without detergent until it fl ushes. Then, interrupt the cycle and put an 8 ounce cup of white vinegar into the lower basket. Close the dishwasher and let the cycle fi nish.

Do not remove the tub front seal (the long rubber seal enclosing the opening of the dishwasher).

CAUTION
