MEETING INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

Electrical supply and grounding

Never use an extension cord.

WARNING

Use only the power cord that comes with your washing machine.

When preparing for installation, ensure that your power supply o ers:

• AC 220-240 V / 60 Hz 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 in electric 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 o completely. Or, it may take the washing machine longer to ﬁ ll than what the controls allow, resulting in your washing machine turning o . (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 120 cm 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 305 cm long.

You can reduce the risk of leaks and water damage by:

• Making water taps easily accessible.

• Turning o 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.

Drain

Samsung recommends a standpipe height of 65cm. 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 minimize 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 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

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.
