8_ safety information
CAUTION SIGNS FOR USING
CAUTION
When the washer is contaminated by a foreign substance such as detergent, dirt, food waste, etc., unplug the power plug and clean the washer using a damp and soft cloth.
- Failure to do so may result in discoloration, deformation, damage or rust.
The front glass may be broken by a strong impact. Take care when using the washer.
- When the glass is broken, it may result in injury.
After a water supply failure or when reconnecting the water supply hose, open the tap slowly. Open the tap slowly after a long period of non-use.
- The air pressure in the water supply hose or the water pipe may result in damage to a part or in water leakage.
If a drain error occurs during an operation, check if there is a draining problem.
- If the washer is used when it is fl ooded because of a draining problem, it may result in electric shock or fi re due to electric leakage.
Insert the laundry into the washer completely so that laundry does not get caught in the door.
- If laundry gets caught in the door, it may result in damage to the laundry or the washer, or result in water leakage.
Ensure that the tap is turned off when the washer is not being used.
- Ensure that the screw on the water supply hose connector is properly tightened.

To reduce the risk of fi re or explosion:
- Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system such as your hot water heater that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If your hot water system has not been used for two weeks or more, turn on all hot water taps in your home, and let the water fl ow for several minutes before using your washing machine. This will release any hydrogen gas build–up. Since hydrogen gas is fl ammable, do not smoke or light an open fl ame during this time. Ventilate immediately without touching the power plug if there is a gas leak.

MEETING INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
Electrical supply and grounding
To prevent unnecessary risk of fi re, electrical shock, or personal injury, all wiring and grounding must be done in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/FNPA, No. 70 Latest Revision and local codes and ordinances. It is the personal responsibility of the appliance owner to provide adequate electrical service for this appliance.
Never use an extension cord. Use only the power cord that comes with your washing machine.
WARNING
When preparing for installation, ensure that your power supply offers:
AC 220-240V / 50Hz fuse or circuit breaker
Individual branch circuit serving only your washing machine
Your washing machine must be grounded. If your washing machine malfunctions or breaks down, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for the electric current. Your washing machine comes with a power cord having a three-prong grounding plug for use in a properly installed and grounded outlet.
Never connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or hot water pipes.
Improperly connecting the equipment-grounding conductor can result electrical shock. Check with a qualifi ed electrician or serviceman if you are unsure if the washing machine is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the washing machine. If it does not fi t the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualifi ed electrician.
Water Supply
Your washing machine will fi ll properly when your water pressure is 50 kPa ~ 800 kPa. Water pressure less than 50 kPa may cause water valve failure, not allowing the water valve to shut off completely. Or, it may take the washing machine longer to fi ll than what the controls allow, resulting in your washing machine turning off. (A fi ll-time limit, designed to prevent overfl ows/ fl ooding if an internal hose becomes loose, is built into the controls.)
The water taps must be within 4 feet (122cm) of the back of your washing machine for the provided inlet hoses provided to reach your washing machine.
Most plumbing supply stores sell inlet hoses of various lengths up to 10 feet (305cm) long.
You can reduce the risk of leaks and water damage by:
• Making water taps easily accessible.
• Turning off taps when the washing machine is not in use.
• Periodically checking for leaks at water inlet hose fi ttings. Before using your washing machine for the fi rst time, check all connections at the water
WARNING
valve and taps for leaks.
14_ setting up your new washing machine
Drain
Samsung recommends a standpipe height of 65 cm. The drain hose must be routed through the drain hose clip to the standpipe. The standpipe must be large enough to accept the outside diameter of the drain hose. The drain hose is attached at the factory.
Flooring
For best performance, your washing machine must be installed on a solidly constructed fl oor. Wood fl oors may need to be reinforced to minimise vibration and/or unbalanced loads. Carpeting and soft tile surfaces are contributing factors to vibrations and the tendency for your washing machine to move slightly during the spin cycle.
Never install your washing machine on a platform or poorly supported structure.
Surrounding temperature
Do not install your washing machine in areas where water may freeze, since your washing machine always retains some water in its water valve, pump, and hose areas. Frozen water in the lines can cause damage to belts, the pump, and other components.
Alcove or closet installation
To operate safely and properly, your new washing machine requires minimum clearances of:
Sides – 25 mm Rear – 50 mm
Top – 25 mm Front – 465 mm
If both the washing machine and a dryer are installed together, the front of the alcove or closet must have at least 465 mm unobstructed air opening. Your washing machine alone does not require a specifi c air opening.
INSTALLING YOUR WASHING MACHINE
STEP 1
Selecting a location
Before you install the washing machine, make sure the location:
• Has a hard, level surface without carpeting or fl ooring that may obstruct ventilation
• Is away from direct sunlight
• Has adequate ventilation
• Will not be freezing (below 32 ˚F or 0 ˚C)
• Is away from heat sources such as oil or gas
• Has enough space so that the washing machine doesn’t stand on its power cord

Before installing the washing machine, you must remove the three shipping bolts from the back of the unit.
1. Loosen all the bolts with the supplied wrench.
Option
2. Hold the bolt with the spanner and pull it through the wide
section of the hole. Repeat for each bolt.
3. Fill the holes with the supplied plastic covers.
4. Store the shipping bolts away safely in case you have to move the washing machine in the
future.
Packaging materials can be dangerous to children; keep all packaging material (plastic bags, polystyrene, etc.) well out of the reach of children.

STEP 3
Adjusting the levelling feet
When installing your washing machine, ensure that the power plug, the water supply and the drain are easily accessible.
1. Slide the washing machine into position.
2. Level your washing
machine by turning the leveling feet in and out as necessary by hand.
3. When your washing machine is level, tighten the nuts using
the wrench supplied with your washing machine.
STEP 4
Connecting the water and drain
Connecting the water supply hose
1. Take the L-shaped arm fi tting for the cold water
supply hose and connect it to the cold water supply intake on the back of the machine. Tighten by hand.
The water supply hose must be connected to the washing machine at one end and to the water tap 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.
2. Connect the other end of the cold water supply
hose to your sink’s cold water tap and tighten it by hand. If necessary, you can reposition the water supply hose at the washing machine end by loosening the fi tting, rotating the hose, and retightening the fi tting.
Option
01 SETTING UP
For selected models with an additional hot water intake:
1. Take the red L-shaped arm fi tting for the hot water supply hose and connect it to the 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 tap and tighten
it by hand.
3. Use a Y-piece if you only want to use cold water.

Connecting the drain hose
The end of the drain hose can be positioned in three ways:
1. 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 tap with a piece of string to prevent the drain hose from moving.

2. 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.
3. ln a drain pipe: We recommend using a 65 cm high vertical pipe; it must be no shorter than
60 cm and no longer than 90 cm.
