Installation requirements
Electrical supply and grounding · AC 120 V / 60 Hz / 15 AMP fuse or circuit breaker is required. · Use an individual branch circuit specific to the washer.
To ensure proper grounding, the washer 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 washer. · Do NOT connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing, gas lines, or hot water pipes. · Improperly connected grounding conductors may cause electric shock. · To prevent unnecessary risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal injury, all wiring and grounding must
be done in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/ NFPA No. 70-Latest Revision (for the U.S.) or the Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1 ­ Latest Revisions and local codes and ordinances. It is your responsibility to provide adequate electrical service for your washer.
Water supply A proper water pressure for this washer is between 20-116 psi (137-800 kPa). Water pressure less than 20 psi (137 kPa) may cause the water valve not to close completely. Or, it may take longer to fill the drum, causing the washer to turn off. Faucets must be within 4 feet (122 cm) from the rear of the washer so that the provided inlet hoses reach the washer. To reduce the risk of leaks: · Make sure faucets are easily accessible. · Turn off the taps when the washer is not in use. · Check for any leaks at the water inlet hose fittings on a regular basis.
CAUTION Before using the washer for the first time, check all connections at the water valve and taps for any leaks.
Drain Samsung recommends a standpipe in height of 18 in (46 cm). The drain hose must be connected through the hose clip to the standpipe, and the standpipe must fully cover the drain hose.

Installation
Flooring For best performance, the washer 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 washer to move slightly during the spin cycle.
CAUTION Do NOT install the washer on a platform or a poorly supported structure.
Water temperature Do not install the washer in areas where water may freeze as the washer 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 washer.

Laundry guidelines
STEP1Sort
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 Easy Iron option for pure, new woollen items,
curtains, and silk items. Check the labels on the items. NOTE Make sure to check the care label on the clothing, and sort them accordingly before starting the wash.
STEP2Empty 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 embroideries inside out · If trousers or jacket zippers are open while washing, the drum may be damaged. Zippers should be
closed and fixed with a string. · Clothing with long strings may become entangled with other clothes. Make sure to tie the strings before
starting the wash.
STEP3Use a laundry net
· Brassieres (machine washable) must be placed in a laundry net. Metal parts of the brassieres may break through and tear 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 washer and result in injury.
STEP4Prewash (if necessary)
Select the Prewash option for the selected cycle if the laundry is heavily soiled. Do not use the Prewash option when detergent is manually added into the drum.
STEP5Determine the load capacity
Do not overload the washer. Overloading may cause the washer to not wash properly. NOTE
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 level is level 2 or level 3, and the load capacity is 7 lb (3.0 kg) or less.

CAUTION · Unbalanced laundry may reduce the spinning performance. · Make sure the laundry is fully inserted in the drum and not caught in the door. · Do not slam the door. Close the door gently. Otherwise, the door may not be closed properly.
STEP6Add the correct detergent type
The type of detergent you use – general purpose, specifically for woolens, etc. – depends on the type of fabric (cotton, synthetic, delicate items, wool), color, wash temperature, and degree of soiling. Regardless of the specific type of detergent you use, always use “low suds” HE laundry detergent which is designed for automatic washers.
NOTE · Follow the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations based on the weight of the laundry, the degree
of soiling, and the hardness of the water in your local area. If you are not sure about the water hardness, contact your local water authority. · Do not use detergent that tends to harden or solidify. This detergent may remain after the rinse cycle, blocking the drain outlet.
CAUTION When washing wool using the WOOL cycle, use only a neutral liquid detergent. Powdered detergent used with the WOOL cycle can remain on the laundry and discolor it.
Use HE detergent only
For the best cleaning results, use a high efficiency detergent such as Tide HE, Wisk HE, Cheer HE or Gain HE. High efficiency detergents contain suds suppressors that reduce or eliminate suds. When fewer suds are produced, the load tumbles more efficiently and cleaning is maximized. ( Brand names are trademarks of their respective manufacturers.)
WARNING For best results, use HE detergents only. Do not use non-HE detergent, organic detergent, natural detergent or HE detergents with natural ingredients (such as vinegar, baking soda).

Before you start
To use powdered detergent

First, remove or turn up the provided liquid detergent container from the main-wash compartment. Then, add powdered detergent to the main-wash compartment according to the detergent manufacturer’s instructions.
CAUTION
Do not add powdered detergent to the liquid detergent container.

To use the bleach compartment
A

First insert the provided drawer bleach in the bleach compartment. Apply only liquid chlorine bleach to the drawer bleach. Do not exceed the max line (A).
CAUTION
Do not apply undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly onto the load or into the drum. It is a powerful chemical and can cause fabric damage, such as weakening of the fibers or color loss, if not used properly.

To use oxygen boosters or color-safe bleach
Oxygen boosters or color-safe bleach can increase washing performance. Make sure to add the oxygen booster or color-safe bleach after putting the laundry into the drum.
NOTE
To use both powder detergent and powder oxygen booster or powder color-safe bleach, it is more effective to put them together into the drum before loading the laundry.
