SAMSUNG Washing Machine Owner’s Instructions
Features
1. Silver Wash - Silver Nano Health System
Samsung’s silver Nano feature uses silver nano particles to sanitize and disinfect your laundry and
your machine’s drum. Delicates as well as smelly socks will get odor-free from human sweat at
temperature as low as 30 °C. That saves energy and protects color and shape of your clothes.
2. Child Lock
The Child Lock function keeps curious little hands out of the washer. This safety feature ensures,
that children do not toy with the operation of the washer. It also alerts you when it is activated.
3. Handwash
Clothes susceptible to damage, such as those made of linen or silk, can be washed just as if they
were being washed by hand.
4. Delay Start
This function enables uses to delay the washing machine’s starting time for up to 24 hours.
5. Delicates & Wool Program
Special care can be determined by the appropriate temperature, the gentle wash action and the
appropriate amount of water.

Before using the appliance
• Packing materials can be dangerous to children; keep all packing material (plastic bags, polystyrene,

• Make sure that water and electrical connections are made by qualified technicians, observing the
manufacturer's instructions (see "Installing the Washing Machine") and local safety regulations.
• All packaging and shipping bolts must be removed before the appliance is used. Serious damage may
occur if they are not removed. See "Removing the shipping bolts".
• Before washing clothes for the first time, you must run a complete cycle without clothes. See "Washing
for the first time".
Safety instructions
• Before cleaning or carrying out maintenance, unplug the appliance from the electrical outlet or set the
(On/Off) button to Off.
• Make sure that the pockets of all clothing to be washed are empty. Hard, sharp objects, such as coins,
safety pins, nails, screws, or stones can cause extensive damage to the appliance.
• Always unplug the appliance and turn off the water after use.
• Before you open the door of the appliance, check that the water has drained.
Do not open the door if you can still see water.
• Pets and small children may climb into the appliance. Check the appliance before each use.
• The glass door becomes very hot during the washing cycle. Keep children away from the appliance
while it is in use.
• Do not attempt to repair the appliance yourself. Repairs made by inexperienced or unqualified persons
may cause injury and/or make more serious repairs to the appliance necessary.
• If the plug (power supply cord) is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent
or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
• This appliance should only be serviced by an authorized service center, and only genuine spare parts

massage clinics. Otherwise this will cause the packing to be deformed, which causes a malfunction or
water leak.
• A stainless washing tube does not usually rust. However if some metal such as a hair pin is left in the
tube for an extended time, the tube could rust. Do not leave water or bleach containing chlorine in the
tube for an extended period of time. Do not regularly use or leave water containing iron in the tube for
an extended period of time. If rust starts appearing on the surface of the tube, apply a cleansing agent
(neutral) to the surface and use a sponge or soft cloth to clean it. (Under no circumstances use a metal
brush)
• The appearance and specifications of the product are subject to change without prior notice for
purposes of enhancement.
• For washing machines with ventilation openings in the base, that a carpet must not obstruct the
openings.
• Use the new hose-sets and old hose-sets should not be reused.

SAMSUNG Washing Machine Owner’s Instructions A-2
Selecting a location
Before you install the washing machine, select a location with the following characteristics:
• A hard, level surface (if the surface is uneven, see "Adjusting the leveling feet," below)
• Away from direct sunlight.
• Adequate ventilation
• Room temperature that will not fall below 0 ˚C
• Away from sources of heat such as coal or gas
Make sure that the washing machine does not stand on its power cord.
Ventilation openings must not be obstructed by carpeting when the washing machine is installed on
a carpeted floor.
Adjusting the leveling feet
If the floor is uneven, adjust the feet (do not insert pieces of wood or any other objects under the feet):
1. Loosen the leg bolt by turning it with your hand until it is at the desired height.
2. Tighten the locking nut by turning it with the supplied wrench.
• Place the washer on a sturdy, flat surface.
If the washer is placed on an uneven or weak surface, noise or vibration occurs. (Only a l degrees
angle is allowed.)
Removing the shipping bolts
Before using the washing machine, you must remove the five shipping bolts from the back of the unit.
To remove the bolts:
1. Loosen all bolts with the supplied wrench before removing them.
2.
Take each bolt head and pull it through the wide part of the hole. Repeat for each bolt.
3. Fill the holes with the supplied plastic covers.
4. Keep the shipping bolts for future use.
Connecting the water supply hose(Option)
1. Remove the adaptor from the water
supply hose.
c
4. Connect the water supply hose to the
adaptor. Pull down part (c) of the water
supply hose. When you release part (c) the
hose automatically connects to the adaptor
making a ’click’ sound.
2. First, using a “+” type screw driver,
loosen the four screws on the
adaptor. Next, take the adaptor and
turn part(b) following the arrow until
there is a 5mm gap.
5. Connect the other end of the water supply
hose to the inlet water valve at the top of
the washer. Screw the hose clockwise all the
way in.
3. Connect adaptor to the water tap by
tightening the screws firmly.
Then,
turn part (b) following the arrow and
put(a) and (b) together.

b
• If the water tap has a screw type faucet,
connect the water supply hose to the tap as
shown.
NOTICE After completing connection, if water leaks from the hose, then repeat the same steps.
Use the most conventional type of faucet for water supply. In case the faucet is square or too
big, remove the spacing ring before inserting the faucet into the adaptor.

A-3 SAMSUNG Washing Machine Owner’s Instruc tions
Installing the Washing Machine
Connecting the water supply hose
The water supply hose must be connected to the washing machine at one end and to the water
faucet at the other. Do not stretch the water supply hose. If the hose is too short and you do not
wish to move the water faucet, replace the hose with a longer, high pressure hose.
To connect the water supply hose:
1. Take the L-shaped arm fitting for the cold
water supply hose and connect to the cold
water supply intake on the back of the
machine. Tighten by hand.
2. Connect the other end of the cold water
supply hose to your sink's cold water faucet
and tighten it by hand. If necessary, you
can reposition the water supply hose at the
washing machine end by loosening the
fitting, rotating the hose, and retightening the
fitting.
Option:
1. Take the red L-shaped arm fitting for the hot water supply hose and connect to the red hot
water supply intake on the back of the machine. Tighten by hand.
2. Connect the other end of the hot water supply hose to your sink's hot water faucet and
tighten it by hand.
3. Use a Y-piece if you only want to use cold water.
Note: The appliance is to be connected to the water mains using new hose-sets and that
old hose-sets should not be used.
Positioning the drain hose
The end of the drain hose may be positioned in three ways:
Over the edge of a sink
The drain hose must be placed at a height of between 60 and 90 cm. To keep the drain hose spout
bent, use the supplied plastic hose guide. Secure the guide to the wall with a hook or to the faucet
with a piece of string to prevent the drain hose from moving.
ln a sink drain pipe branch
The drain pipe branch must be above the sink
siphon so that the end of the hose is at least
60 cm above the ground.
ln a drain pipe
Samsung recommends that you use a 65 cm high
vertical pipe; it must be no shorter than 60 cm and
no longer than 90 cm.
