Important safety precautions

WARNING
To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using this appliance.
2. Do not wash or dry articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked
in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, other ammable or explosive substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
3. Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close supervision of children is necessary when the appliance is used near children.
4. Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove the lid of the washing or drying compartment.
5. Do not reach into the appliance if the drum is moving.
6. Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather.
7. Do not tamper with the controls.
8. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing unless it is
specically recommended in the user-maintenance instructions or in published user­repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.
9. Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other ammable or explosive substances to the wash water. These substances give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
10. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for 2 weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for 2 weeks or more, before using a washer or combination washer-dryer, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water ow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is ammable, do not smoke or use an open ame during this time.

Installation requirements

Electrical supply and grounding
• AC 120 V / 60 Hz / 15 AMP fuse or circuit breaker is required.
• Use an individual branch circuit. Connect only the washer to the circuit.
To ensure proper grounding, the washer comes with a power cord featuring a three-prong grounding plug for use in a properly installed and grounded outlet.
Check with a qualied electrician or service person if you are not sure about the grounding.
Do not modify the provided plug. If it does not t the outlet, call a qualied electrician to
Installation
install a proper outlet.
• Do NOT use an extension cord.
• Use only the power cord that comes with the washer.
• Do NOT connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing, gas lines, or hot water pipes.
• Improperly connected grounding conductors may cause electric shock.
• To prevent unnecessary risk of re, electrical shock, or personal injury, all wiring
WARNING
and grounding must be done in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-Latest Revision (for the U.S.) or the Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1 – Latest Revisions and local codes and ordinances. It is your responsibility to provide adequate electrical service for your washer.
Water supply
Proper water pressure for this washer is between 20-116 psi (137-800 kPa). Water pressure less than 20 psi (137 kPa) may cause the water valve not to close completely. or it may take longer to ll the drum, causing the washer to turn off. Water taps must be within 4 ft. (122 cm) from the rear of the washer so that the provided inlet hoses reach the washer.
To reduce the risk of leaks:
• Make sure water taps are easily accessible.
• Turn off the taps when the washer is not in use.
• Check for any leaks at the water inlet hose ttings on a regular basis.
CAUTION
Before using the washer for the rst time, check all connections at the water valve and taps for any leaks.
English16
Untitled-3 16 2019-06-24 PM 12:07:57
Drain
Samsung recommends a standpipe 39 in. (990 mm) high. The drain hose must be connected through the hose clip to the standpipe, and the standpipe must fully cover the drain hose.
Flooring
For best performance, the washer must be installed on a solid oor. Wood oors may need to be reinforced to minimize vibration and/or unbalanced loads. Carpeting and soft tile surfaces do not provide good resistance to vibrations and may cause the washer to move slightly during the spin cycle.
CAUTION
Do NOT install the washer on a platform or a poorly supported structure.
Water temperature
Do not install the washer in areas where water may freeze as the washer always retains some water in its water valves, pumps, and/or hoses. Frozen water can cause damage to belts, the pump, and other components of the washer.

Laundry guidelines

Before you start
STEP 1 Sort
Sort the laundry according to these criteria:
• Care label: sort the laundry into cottons, mixed bers, synthetics, silks, wools, and rayon.
• Color: Separate whites from colors.
• Size: Mixing different sized items together in the tub improves washing performance.
• Sensitivity: Wash delicate items separately. For pure new woolen items, curtains, and silk items, check the labels on the items.
NOTE
Make sure to check the care label on all clothing, and sort clothing accordingly before starting the wash.
STEP 2 Empty pockets
Empty all the pockets of your laundry items
• Metal objects such as coins, pins, and buckles on clothing may damage other laundry items as well as the tub.
Turn clothing with buttons and embroideries inside out
• If pants or jacket zippers are open while washing, the tub may be damaged. Zippers should be closed and xed with a string.
• Clothing with long strings may become entangled with other clothes. Make sure to tie the strings before starting the wash.

STEP 3 Use a laundry net
A
• Brassieres (water washable) must be placed in a laundry net. Metal parts of the brassieres may break through and tear other laundry items.
• Cashmilon, large volume items, and lightweight clothes (lace-decorated clothes, lingerie, nylon stockings, and synthetic fabrics) may oat during washing and not wash properly. Use the laundry net or wash them separately.
• Do not wash the laundry net by itself without other laundry. This can cause abnormal vibrations that could cause the washer to move and result in injury.
CAUTION
Make sure to soak inatable items (such as blankets, and cotton-lled or microber quilts) in water before you run a cycle.
• Inatable items may damage the laundry or the washer during the washing or spinning process.
• Regardless of the size, it is safer to wash blankets or quilts one item at a time. This will also get them cleaner. Two different-sized blankets in the same load can cause the load to become unbalanced, compromising the spinning process.
To put a blanket in your washer Fold the blanket as shown, and then put it below the plastic ring (A) at the top of the tub.

STEP 4 Prewash (if necessary)
• To remove stains and dirt on collars, sleeves, hems, and pockets, apply detergent lightly, let sit for a minute, and then brush off carefully.
• Use powder or liquid detergents. Do not use soap. Soap can remain on the tub after washing.
• To prewash white socks, sleeves, and collars apply a little detergent, and then brush carefully.
CAUTION
Make sure the laundry is inserted completely.
• Any exposed part of the laundry can cause damage to the washer or the laundry itself or cause a water leak.
• Make sure the laundry does not extend past the plastic ring at the top of the tub.
Before you start
STEP 5 Determine the load capacity
Make sure the laundry does not extend past the plastic ring at the top of the tub. If it does, it can cause the washing machine to wash improperly or cause damage to the washer or the laundry itself or cause a water leak.
NOTE
When washing bedding or bedding covers, the wash time may be lengthened or the spin efciency may be reduced.
For bedding or bedding covers, the recommended load capacity is 7.5 lb (3.5 kg) or less.
CAUTION
If the laundry is unbalanced and the “UB” information code is displayed, redistribute the load. Unbalanced laundry can reduce spinning performance.
