MEETING INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

Electrical supply and grounding

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.

CAUTION 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.

WARNING

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 floor.

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.

Use dishwasher detergent only. Regular detergent produces too much foam, which may decrease the

CAUTION dishwasher’s performance or cause it to malfunction.

Do not swallow dishwasher detergent. Avoid breathing in the fumes. Dishwasher detergent contains

WARNING 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 c ap by pushing the detergent dispenser release catch.

The flap 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 flap by sliding it to the down and then pressing it down.

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

The additional detergent will activate during the pre-wash phase.

<![if ! IE]>

The cover opens automatically to dispense the detergent during the wash.

CYCLE	AMOUNT OF DETERGENT
	Main wash dispenser	Onto the door for pre-wash
Auto, Normal	20 g	10 g
Heavy, Express 60	30 g	15 g

The numbers inside the dispenser refer to grams.

Filling the rinse aid reservoir

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. Open the rinse aid reservoir cap.

2. Fill the rinse aid reservoir with rinse aid.

Use the viewing port when fil ling the rinse aid reservoir.

English - 18

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 filling 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 flushes. Then, interrupt the cycle and put an 8 ounce cup of white vinegar into the lower basket. Close the dishwasher and let the cycle finish.

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

CAUTION

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

CLEANING THE FILTERS

1. Turn off the dishwasher.

2. Rotate the filter insert counterclockwise to unfasten and then detach the filter insert.

3. Remove the fine filter (flat, rectangular).
