adaptor. Next,take the adaptor and
turn part(b) following the arrow for
gap about 5mm between them.
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.
NOTICE

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. Connect the cold water supply hose(Blue) fitting with the L-shaped arm to the cold water supply
intake(Blue) on the back of the washing machine and hand tighten.
4. Connect the water supply hose to the
adaptor. Pull down the part (c) of the water
supply hose. When you release part (c) the
hose is automatically connects to the
adaptor making a 'click' sound.
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.
● If the water tap is a screw type,assemble a
water supply hose that fits to the tap as
shown.
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. Connect the hot water supply hose(Red) fitting with the L-shaped arm to the hot watersupply
intake(Red) on the back of the washing machine and hand tighten.
2. Connect the other end of the hot watersupply hose to your sink’ s hot waterfaucet and tighten it by hand.
3. If you want to use only cold water , use Y-piece.
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. T o 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.
In 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.

Samsung recommends you use a 65 cm high vertical pipe; it must be no
shorter than 60 cm and no longer than 90 cm.
The inside of the drain pipe must be wider than the diameter of the drain.
The drain hose can be extended to a length of up to 180 cm. Use an extension
with an internal diameter at least equal to the diameter of the original hose
and a suitable fitting. The hose extension will run along the floor and only the
part near the drainage point will be raised.

•Green-and yellow :Earth
•Blue :Neutral
•Brown :Live
• As the colours of the wires in the mains lead
of this appliance may not correspond with the
coloured markings indentifying the terminals
in your plug, proceed as follows.
• Connect the green-and yellow wire to the
terminal in the plug marked with the letter E or
the earth symbol ( ) or coloured green or
green-and-yellow.
• Connect the blue wire to the terminal marked
with the letter N or coloured black.
• Connect the brown wire to the terminal marked
with the letter L or coloured red.
*Consult a qualified electrician or service technician
if in doubt about any of these instructions.
The manufacturer of this washing machine will not accept any
liability for damage to persons or material for non
observance of these requirements.There are no
user+serviceable parts inside the washing machine and if the
mains lead of this appliance is damaged, it must only be
replaced by qualified service personnel approved by the
manufacturer because special tools are required.
GREEN AND
YELLOW
BLUE
Ensure that the plug and power
cord are not damaged before use.
If you have any reason to remove
the moulded plug from this
appliance, immediately remove the
fuse and dispose of the plug.
Do not connect the plug to a mains
socket under any circumstances as
there is a danger of electric shock.

Washing tips and hints
Sorting your laundry: Sort your laundry according to the following char-
acteristics:
• Type of fabric care label symbol: Sort laundry into cottons, mixed
fibers, synthetics, silks, wools and rayon.
• Color: Divide whites and colors. Wash new, colored items separately.
• Size: Placing items of different sizes in the same load will improve the
washing action.
• Sensitivity: Wash delicate items separately, using the Delicate wash
program for pure new wool, curtains and silk articles. Check the labels
on the items you are washing or refer to the fabric care chart in the
appendix.
Emptying pockets: Coins, safety pins and similar items can damage linen,
the washing machine drum, and the water tank.
Securing fasteners: Close zippers and fasten buttons or hooks; loose belts
or ribbons should be tied together.
Prewashing cotton: Cotton, Synthetic, Delicate prewash are not
normally necessary. Your new washing machine, combined with modern
detergents, will give perfect washing results, thus saving energy, time, water
and detergent. However, if your cotton is particularly dirty, use a prewash
with a protein-based detergent.

SAMSUNG Washing Machine Owner’s Instructions
Page 15
Washing a Load of Laundry
Determining load capacity: Do not overload the washing machine or
your laundry may not wash properly. Use the chart below to determine the
load capacity for the type of laundry you are washing.
Fabric Type Load Capacity
Colored/cotton
– average/lightly soiled 5.0 kg
– heavily soiled 5.0 kg
Synthetics 2.5 kg
Delicates 2.0 kg
Wools 1.5 kg
Detergent tips: The type of detergent you use is based on the type of fabric
(cotton, synthetic, delicate items, wool), color, wash temperature, degree and
type of soiling. Always use “low suds” laundry soap, which is designed for
automatic washing machines.
Follow the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations based upon the weight
of the laundry, the degree of soiling, and the hardness of the water in your
area. If you do not know how hard your water is, ask your water authority.
Note;
Keep detergents and additives in a Safe, dry place out of the reach of chil
dren.

Electrical warnings
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, and other injuries, keep these safety precautions in mind:
• Operate the appliance only from the type of power source indicated on the
marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to your
home, consult your appliance dealer or local power company.
• Use only a grounded or polarized outlet. For your safety, this appliance is
equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug having one blade
wider than the other. This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. If
you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If
the plug still doesn’t fit, contact your electrician to replace your outlet.
• Protect the power cord. Power supply cords should be routed so that they are
unlikely to be walked on or pinched by items placed on or against them. Pay
particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point
where they exit from the unit.
• Do not overload the wall outlet or extension cords. Overloading can result in
fire or electric shock.

dispose of this appliance, please observe local waste disposal regulations. Cut
off the power cord so that the appliance cannot be connected to a power
source. Remove the door so that animals and small children cannot get
trapped inside the appliance.
• Do not exceed the detergent quantities recommended in the detergent manu-
facturers’instructions.
• Use stain removal products and bleaches before the wash cycle only when
strictly necessary.
• Save water and electricity by only washing full loads (the exact amount
depends upon the program used).
