Features

1. Energy Saving A+AA

We made the grade. Samsung’s Q1657A(V/T/S), the latest in high-tech 1600rpm spin models, was awarded a triple A score: A+ rated for energy consumption,

A rated for washing performance, and A rated for spin dry performance. As a result, you accumulate more free time and money to spend on what really-you and your family.

2. Silver Wash - Silver Nano Health System TM

Samsung’s Silver Nano feature uses silver nano particles to sanitize and disinfect your loundry and your machine’s drum. Delicates as well as smelly socks will get odor-free from human sweat at temperatures as low as 30˚C.

That saves energy and protects color and form of your clothes.

3. Graphic Digital Display

The Graphic Digital Display control panel is clear and easy to use for minimum fuss and hassle. And whilst easy to operate, the Graphic Digital Display enables you to make quick and accurate adjustments to the wash for excellent washing results.

4. Shower Spinning

Leave the residue behind. With our Shower Spinning feature, jets of water are sprayed into the wash during thr spin cycle. That ensures that detergent goes down the drain where it belongs.

5. Stop & Add - Pause Option

Forgot an item? No problem. Our Stop & Add function allows you to stop the washer, open the door and throw it in. A built-in sensor detects the water level and tells you when it’s safe to open the door.

Installing the Washing Machine

Connecting the water supply hose

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.

NOTICE The appliance is to be connected to the water mains using new hose-sets and that old hosesets should not be used.

Hot water supply value

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.

Over the edge of a wash basin

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.
