Installation requirements
Electrical supply and grounding
•AC 220-240 V / 50 Hz fuse or circuit breaker equipped
•Individual branch circuit specific to the washing machine
To ensure a proper grounding, the washing machine comes with a power cord featuring a threeprong
grounding plug for use in a properly installed and grounded outlet.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceperson 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 and 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 pressures less
than 50 kPa may cause the water valve not to close completely. Or, it may take a longer time to fill the drum,
turning off the washing machine resultantly. 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 a risk of leak
•Make water taps easily accessible.
•Turn off taps when the washing machine is not in use.
•Check for any leak at 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 leak.

02 INSTALLLATION
Drain
Samsung recommends a standpipe in height of 65cm. 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 washing machine must be installed on a solid floor. Wood floors may need to be
reinforced to minimize 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 or closet installation
Minimum clearance for a stable operation:
Sides 25 mm Rear 50 mm
Top 25 mm Front 500 mm
If both the washing machine and a dryer are installed in one location, the front of the alcove or closet must
have at least 500 mm unobstructed air opening. Your washing machine alone does not require a specific air
opening.

03 BEFORE YOU START
Laundry guidelines
STEP 1 - Sort
Sort the laundry according to these criteria:
• Care Label: Sort the laundry into cottons, mixed fibres, synthetics, silks, wools and rayon.
• Colour: Separate whites from colours.
• Size: Mixing different-sized items together in the drum improves the washing performance.
• Sensitivity: Wash delicate items separately using an EasyIron option for pure, new woollen items,
curtains and silk items. Check the labels on the items.
Make sure to check the care label on the clothing, and sort them 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 drum.
Turn clothing with buttons and embroiders inside out.
• If zips of pants and jackets are open while washing, the drum may be damaged. Zips should be closed
and fixed with a string.
• Clothing with long strings may become entangled with other clothes. Be sure to x the strings before
starting the wash.
STEP 3 - Use a laundry net
• Brassieres (water washable) must be placed in a laundry net. Metal parts of the brassieres may break
through and rip other laundry items.
• Small, light clothing such as socks, gloves, stockings and handkerchiefs may become caught around
the door. Place them inside a fine laundry net.
• Do not wash the laundry net by itself without other laundry. This may cause abnormal vibrations that
could move the washing machine and result in injury.
STEP 4 - Prewash (if necessary)
Add a Prewash option to the selected course with a protein-based detergent for cotton items that are
contaminated severely.

STEP 5 - Determine the load capacity
Do not overload the washing machine or the laundry may not wash properly. For the load capacity for the
type of cothing, see page 25.
When washing bedding or bedding covers, the wash time may be lengthened or the spin efficiency
may be reduced. For bedding or bedding covers, the recommended maximum spin cycle speed is
800 rpm and the load capacity is 2.0 kg or less.
CAUTION: If the laundry is unbalanced and the “UE” error code is displayed, redistribute the load.
Unbalanced laundry may reduce the spinning performance.
STEP 6 - Apply a proper detergent
The type of detergent depends on the type of fabric (cotton, synthetic, delicate items, wool), colour,
wash temperature, and degree of soiling. Always use “low suds” laundry detergent, which is designed for
automatic washing machines.
• Follow the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations based on the weight of the laundry, the
degree of soiling, and the hardness of the water in a local area. If you are not sure about the
water hardness, contact a local water authority.
• Do not use detergent that tends to be hardened or solidified. This detergent may remain after the
rinse cycle, blocking the drain outlet.
CAUTION: Use only a neutral liquid detergent for wool in the Wool course. A powder detergent with
the Wool course may remain on the laundry and discolour the laundry.
