Installation

Follow these instructions carefully to ensure proper installation of the washing machine and prevent accidents when doing laundry.
Installation requirements
Electrical supply and grounding
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 suitable 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
The proper water pressure for this washing machine is between 50 kPa and 1000 kPa. Water pressure less than 50 kPa may cause the water valve to not 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 60-90 cm high. 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 minimise vibration and/or unbalanced loads. Carpeting and soft tile surfaces do not resist vibrations well 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.

Step-by-step installation
NOTE
While unpacking the washing machine, lift the washing machine from the foam base. Make sure the drum support was removed from the bottom of the washing machine.

STEP 1 Select a location
Location requirements:
