Installation requirements
Electrical supply and grounding
• AC 220-240 V / 50 Hz fuse or circuit
breaker is required.
• Use an individual branch circuit specific
to the washing machine.
To ensure proper grounding, the washing
machine comes with a power cord
featuring a three-prong grounding plug for
use in a properly installed and grounded
outlet.
Check with a qualified electrician or
service person if you are not sure about
the grounding.
Do not modify the provided plug. If it does
not fit the outlet, call a qualified electrician
to install a proper outlet.
WARNING
• Do NOT use an extension cord.
• Use only the power cord that comes
with the washing machine.
• Do NOT connect the ground wire to
plastic plumbing, gas lines, or hot water
pipes.
• Improperly connected grounding
conductors may cause electric shock.
Water supply
A proper water pressure for this washing
machine is between 50 kPa and 800 kPa.
Water pressure less than 50 kPa may
cause the water valve not to close
completely. Or, it may take longer to fill
the drum, causing the washing machine
to turn off. Water taps must be within
120 cm from the rear of the washing
machine so that the provided inlet hoses
reach the washing machine.
To reduce the risk of leaks:
• Make sure water taps are easily
accessible.
• Turn off the taps when the washing
machine is not in use.
• Check for any leaks at the water inlet
hose fittings on a regular basis.
CAUTION
Before using the washing machine for
the first time, check all connections at the
water valve and taps for any leaks.
Drain
Samsung recommends a standpipe in
height of 60-90 cm. The drain hose must
be connected through the hose clip to the
standpipe, and the standpipe must fully
cover the drain hose.
Untitled-13 19 2019-06-17 PM 4:35:29

Installation
English20
Installation
Flooring
For best performance, the washing
machine must be installed on a solid floor.
Wood floors may need to be reinforced
to minimise vibration and/or unbalanced
loads. Carpeting and soft tile surfaces are
not a good resistance to vibrations and
may cause the washing machine to move
slightly during the spin cycle.
CAUTION
Do NOT install the washing machine on a
platform or a poorly supported structure.
Water temperature
Do not install the washing machine in
areas where water may freeze as the
washing machine always retains some
water in its water valves, pumps, and/or
hoses. Frozen water left in the connection
parts may cause damage to belts, the
pump, and other components of the
washing machine.
Alcove installation
Minimum clearance for stable operation:
Sides 25 mm
Top 25 mm
Rear 50 mm
Front 550 mm
If both the washing machine and a dryer
are installed in the same location, the front
of the alcove must have at least a 550 mm
unobstructed air opening. Your washing
machine alone does not require a specific
air opening.
