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
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
A 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.
Untitled-5 15 2021-02-02 2:17:29
English
Installation
English16
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 vibration 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 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 between 60 cm and
90 cm (*) above from the floor. 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.
In 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.
• To ensure the drain hose stays in position, use the
plastic hose guide provided (see the figure).
• To prevent the siphoning of water flow during
drainage, make sure to insert the drain hose 15 cm
in the drain pipe.
• To prevent the drain hose from moving around,
secure the hose guide to the wall.
Drain standpipe requirements:
• Minimum diameter of 5 cm
• Minimum carry-away capacity of 60 litres per
minute

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 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 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.
STEP 3 Use 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 washing machine and result in injury.
STEP 4 Prewash (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.
Untitled-5 28 2021-02-02 2:17:35
English
English29
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 38.
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 cycle speed is 800 rpm, and the
load capacity is 2.0 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.
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. Make sure to use the laundry detergent that 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 solidified. This detergent may remain after the rinse
cycle, blocking the drain outlet.
CAUTION
When washing wool using the Wool cycle, use a detergent dedicated to wool items. If used with the Wool
cycle, powder detergent may remain on the laundry and discolour the laundry.

Laundry capsules
To get the best results from using laundry capsules, please follow these instructions.
1. Put the capsule in the bottom of the empty drum
towards the rear.
2. Put the laundry in the drum on top of the capsule.
CAUTION
For cycles using cold water or cycles that complete in less than one hour, the capsule may not dissolve
completely.
