SELECTING A LOCATION
Before you install the washing machine, select a location with the following characteristics:
• A hard, level surface (if the surface is uneven, see “Adjusting the leveling feet,” below)
• Away from direct sunlight.
• Adequate ventilation
• Room temperature that will not fall below 0 ˚C
• Away from sources of heat such as coal or gas
Make sure that the washing machine does not stand on its power cord.
Ventilation openings must not be obstructed by carpeting when the washing machine is installed
on a carpeted floor.
ADJUSTING THE LEVELING FEET
If the floor is uneven, adjust the feet (do not insert pieces of wood or any other objects under the
feet):
1. Loosen the leg bolt by turning it with your hand
until it is at the desired height.
2. Tighten the locking nut by turning it with the
supplied wrench.
• Place the washer on a sturdy, flat surface.
If the washer is placed on an uneven or weak
surface, noise or vibration occurs. (Only a 1
degrees angle is allowed.)
REMOVING THE SHIPPING BOLTS
Before using the washing machine, you must remove the five shipping bolts from the back of the
unit. To remove the bolts:
1. Loosen all bolts with the supplied wrench before
removing them.
2. Take each bolt head and pull it through the wide
part of the hole. Repeat for each bolt.
3. Fill the holes with the supplied plastic covers.
4. Keep the shipping bolts for future use.

8_ Installing the washing machine
CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY HOSE (OPTION)
1. Remove the adaptor from the water supply hose.
2. First, using a ‘+’ type screw driver, loosen the four screws on
the adaptor. Next, take the adaptor and turn part(b) following
the arrow until there is a 5mm gap.
3. Connect adaptor to the water tap by tightening the screws
firmly.
Then, turn part (b) following the arrow and put(a) and (b)
together.
4. Connect the water supply hose to the adaptor. Pull down
part (c) of the water supply hose.
When you release part (c) the hose automatically connects
to the adaptor making a ‘click’ sound.
5. Connect the other end of the water supply hose to the
inlet water valve at the top of the washer. Screw the hose
clockwise all the way in.
• If the water tap has a screw type faucet, connect the water
supply hose to the tap as shown.
After completing connection, if water leaks from the hose, then repeat the same steps. Use
the most conventional type of faucet for water supply. In case the faucet is square or too
big, remove the spacing ring before inserting the faucet into the adaptor.

CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY HOSE
The water supply hose must be connected to the washing machine at one end and to the water faucet at
the other. Do not stretch the water supply hose. If the hose is too short and you do not wish to move the
water faucet, replace the hose with a longer, high pressure hose.
To connect the water supply hose:
1. Take the L-shaped arm fitting for the cold water
supply hose and connect to the cold water supply
intake on the back of the machine. Tighten by hand.
2. Connect the other end of the cold water supply hose to your sink’s cold water faucet and
tighten it by hand. If necessary, you can reposition the water supply hose at the washing
machine end by loosening the fitting, rotating the hose, and retightening the fitting.
Option:
1. Take the red L-shaped arm fitting for the hot water supply hose and connect to the red
hot water supply intake on the back of the machine. Tighten by hand.
2. Connect the other end of the hot water supply hose to your sink’s hot water faucet and
tighten it by hand.
3. Use a Y-piece if you only want to use cold water.
The appliance is to be connected to the water mains using new hose-sets and that old
hose-sets should not be used.
POSITIONING THE DRAIN HOSE
The end of the drain hose may be positioned in three ways:
Over the edge of a sink
The drain hose must be placed at a height of between
60 and 90 cm. To keep the drain hose spout bent, use
the supplied plastic hose guide. Secure the guide to the
wall with a hook or to the faucet with a piece of string to
prevent the drain hose from moving.
ln a sink drain pipe branch
The drain pipe branch must be above the sink siphon so that the end of the hose is at least 60
cm above the ground.
ln a drain pipe
Samsung recommends that you use a 65 cm high vertical pipe; it must be no shorter than 60
cm and no longer than 90 cm.

This appliance must be earthed. In the event of an electrical
short circuit, earthing reduces the risk of electric shock
providing an escape wire for the electric current.
The appliance is equipped with a mains lead which includes
an earth wire for connecting to the earth terminal of your mains

The plug must be plugged into a socket that is properly
installed and earthed.
* The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with
the following code:
• Green and yellow : Earth
• Blue : Neutral
• Brown : Live
• AS the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this
appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings
indentifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows.
• Connect the green and yellow wire to the terminal in the
plug marked with the letter E or the earth symbol ( ) or
coloured green or green-and-yellow.
• Connect the blue wire to the terminal marked with the letter
N or coloured black.
• Connect the brown wire to the terminal marked with the
letter L or coloured red.
* Consult a qualified electrician or service technician if in
doubt about any of these instructions.
The manufacturer of this washing machine will not accept
any liability for damage to persons or material for non
observance of these requirements.
There are no user serviceable parts inside the washing
machine and if the mains lead of this appliance is damaged,
it must only be replaced by qualified service personnel
approved by the manufacturer because special tools are
required.
