Installing the Washing Machine

Unpacking the Washing Machine

Unpack your washing machine and inspect it for shipping damage. Also make sure that you have received all of the items shown below. If the washing machine was damaged during shipping or you do not have all of the items, con­tact your Samsung dealer immediately.

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 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 1 degrees angle is allowed.)

Installing the Washing Machine

Removing the shipping bolts

Before using the washing machine, you must remove all of the shipping bolts from the back of the unit. To remove the bolts:
1. Loosen all bolts with the 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

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.

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.
