Features of your new

Samsung dishwasher

Your new dishwasher will change the way you feel about washing kitchenware. From its specialised features to its energy efficiency, your new Samsung dishwasher ensures that washing your kitchenware is as easy and enjoyable as possible.

1. 3-Tier Filtration System

Your new Samsung dishwasher’s 3-tier filtration system filters every last bit of food from your dishes, cups, cooking utensils and cutlery. The advanced filtration system thoroughly filters out and collects all food remains so that you can rest assured knowing that your dishes will come out spotless.

Samsung dishwashers have the most powerful filtration systems in their class.

2. Condensing Drying Technology

Your new Samsung dishwasher utilizes the latent thermal energy from the final rinse cycle to drying the load. This not only saves energy, but also prevents steam from escaping the dishwasher and injuring you and your loved ones.

This user manual contains important information concerning the use and care of your new Samsung dishwasher. Refer to the manual for detailed instructions on using the control panel and for tips on how to get the best out of the latest features and technologies of your new dishwasher. The “Programme Chart” section contains a summarised table of the available programmes, and the “Troubleshooting” section contains information on solving common problems.

MEETING THE INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

Power supply and grounding

Do not use an extension cord.

WARNING Only use the power cord that came with the dishwasher.

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

An AC 220-240V/50Hz fuse or a circuit breaker.

An individual branch circuit serving 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.

Your dishwasher comes with a power cord and a grounded, three-prong plug that can be inserted into a properly installed and grounded outlet.

Do not connect the ground wire to a plastic plumbing line, gas line, or hot water pipe.

WARNING

Improperly connecting the grounding conductor can result in electric shock.

Check with a qualified electrician or technician if you are unsure whether your dishwasher has been properly grounded.

Do not modify the plug provided with the dishwasher. If it does not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet CAUTION installed by a qualified electrician.

Water supply

Do not drink the water from inside the dishwasher.

WARNING

The dishwasher may be connected to a cold or hot water supply, max 60ºC.

A stopcock with a 3/4” male thread must be provided on tap.

The water pressure must be between 0.05MPa and 0.8MPa. If the water pressure is to less, the water supply valve may not operated properly causing the dishwasher to turn off. If the water pressure is too high, a pressure reducer valve must be fitted.

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

CAUTION • Making water taps easily accessible.

Turning off the taps when the dishwasher is not in use.

Periodically checking the fittings for leaks.

Using Aqua-Stop

The Aqua-Stop was invented as the perfect leakage protection system.

It is attached to the water supply hose and automatically cuts off the water flow in the event of damage to the hose.

Aqua-Stop is an electrical component.

CAUTION • Take care that you do not damage the Aqua-Stop.

Do not twist or bend the water supply hose connected to the Aqua-Stop.

If the Aqua-Stop has been damaged, shut off the water taps and pull out the power plug right away. CAUTION Once these steps have been taken, contact Samsung Customer Service or a qualified technician.

Drain

If you are using a drain exclusively for the dishwasher, connect the drain hose to a drain that is between 30cm to 70cm off the ground.

Connecting the drain hose to a drain more than 80cm off the ground can result the water in the dishwater flowing back or draining incompletely.

Setting up your dishwasher

Flooring

For best performance, your dishwasher must be installed on a solid, even floor.

Wooden floors may need to be reinforced to minimize vibrations. Carpeting and soft tiles are contributing factors to vibrations and may cause your dishwasher to move slightly while operating.

Never install your dishwasher on a platform or poorly supported structure.

CAUTION

Ambient temperature

Do not install your dishwasher in an area exposed to freezing temperatures. Your dishwasher always retains some water in the water valve, pump and hose and if the water freezes in the machine or hoses, it may damage the appliance and its components.

INSTALLING YOUR DISHWASHER (ONLY FOR INSTALLING UNDER THE SINK)

STEP1. Removing the work top

1.Remove the 2 screws from the upper part on the back of the dish washer.

2.Slide the work top backward and then lift it up to separate it.

You may dispose the plastic part that is supporting the work top.
