features

• Air Wash

The Air Wash system deodorizes unpleasant smells and sterilizes ‘bacteria’ and mites in the laundry that cannot be eliminated through a conventional washing system, a benefit of its unique airwashing mechanism.

• Air-washable : Woolen coats, cotton/down jumpers, sweaters, suits, pillows, cushions, needlework dolls

• Not applicable : leather, silk, velvet, electric blankets, other dirty laundry

• Silver Wash

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.

• 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.

• Delay Start

This function enables uses to delay the washing machine’s starting time for up to 19 hours.

• DRY

Two types of drying mode, Intensive Dry and Gentle Dry, feed your different demand.

• Delicates & Wool Program

Special care can be determined by the appropriate temperature, the gentle wash action and the appropriate amount of water.

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, 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.

CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY HOSE (OPTION)

1. Remove the adaptor from the water supply hose.

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.

3. Connect the adaptor to the water tap by tightening the screws firmly. Then, turn part (b) following the arrow and put(a) and (b) together.

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.

5. Connect the other end of the water supply hose to the inlet water valve at the rear of the washer. Screw the hose clockwise all the way in.

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.

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.
