Installation requirements
Electrical supply and grounding
• AC 220-240 V / 50 Hz fuse or circuit
breaker is required
• Use an individual branch circuit specic
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 qualied electrician or
serviceperson if you are not sure about the
grounding.
Do not modify the provided plug. If it does
not t the outlet, call a qualied 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 ll 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 ttings on a regular basis.
CAUTION
Before using the washing machine for the
rst 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.

Installation
Installation
Flooring
For best performance, the washing
machine must be installed on a solid oor.
Wood oors 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 stable operation:
Sides 25 mm Rear 50 mm
Top 25 mm Front 550 mm
If both the washing machine and a dryer
are installed in the same location, the front
of the alcove or closet must have at least
a 550 mm unobstructed air opening. Your
washing machine alone does not require a
specic air opening.

STEP 5 Position the drain hose
The drain hose can be positioned in three ways:
A
Over the edge of a wash basin
The drain hose must be placed at a height
of between 60 cm and 90 cm (*) from the
oor. To keep the spout of the drain hose
bent, use the supplied plastic hose guide (A).
Secure the guide to the wall using a hook to
ensure stable drainage.
ln a sink drain pipe
The drain pipe must be above the sink
siphon so that the end of the hose is at least
60 cm above the oor.
ln a drain pipe
The drain pipe should be between 60 cm
and 90 cm high (*). It is advisable to use
a 65 cm high vertical pipe. Make sure the
drain hose is connected to the stand pipe at
a slant.
Drain standpipe requirements:
• Minimum diameter of 5 cm
• Minimum carry-away capacity of 60
litres per minute
STEP 6 Turn on the washing machine
Plug the power cord into a wall socket featuring an AC 220-240 V / 50 Hz approved electrical
outlet protected by a fuse or circuit breaker. Then, press Power to turn on the washing
machine.

Laundry guidelines
STEP 1 Sort
Sort the laundry according to these
criteria:
• Care Label: Sort the laundry into cottons,
mixed bres, 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.
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
embroideries inside out
• If pants or jacket zippers are open while
washing, the drum may be damaged.
Zippers should be closed and xed with
a string.
• Clothing with long strings may become
entangled with other clothes. Make sure
to tie 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
tear other laundry items.
• Small, light clothing such as socks,
gloves, stockings, and handkerchiefs
may become caught around the door.
Place them inside a ne 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.
WD80J5A10AW(AX)_03666E-01_EN.indd 26 2018/3/7 14:09:52
English 27
Before you start
STEP 4 Prewash (if necessary)
Select the Prewash option for the selected
course if the laundry is heavily soiled. Do
not use the Prewash option when detergent
is manually added into the drum.
STEP 5 Determine the load capacity
Do not overload the washing machine.
Overloading may cause the washing
machine to not wash properly. For the load
capacity for the type of clothing, see page
35.
NOTE
When washing bedding or bedding covers,
the wash time may be lengthened or the
spin efciency may be reduced. For bedding
or bedding covers, the recommended
maximum spin cycle speed is 800 rpm, and
the load capacity is 2 kg or less.
CAUTION
If the laundry is unbalanced and the “UB”
information code is displayed, redistribute
the load. Unbalanced laundry may reduce
the spinning performance.
STEP 6 Apply a proper detergent
type
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.
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 a local water authority.
• Do not use detergent that tends to be
hardened or solidied. This detergent
may remain after the rinse cycle,
blocking the drain outlet.
CAUTION
When washing wool using the wool course,
use only a neutral liquid detergent. If used
with the Wool course, powder detergent
may remain on the laundry and discolour
the laundry.
