IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, explosion, electric shock, property damage or injury to persons
when using your appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following
1. Read all safety instructions before using the appliance.
2. As with any equipment using electricity and having moving parts, there are potential
hazards. To use this appliance safely, the operator should become familiar with the
instructions for the operation of this appliance and always exercise care when using it.
3. Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to bad weather.
4. Install and level the washing machine on a floor that can support the weight.
5. This appliance must be properly grounded. Never plug the appliance cord into a
receptacle which is not grounded adequately and in accordance with local and national
codes. See installation instructions for grounding this appliance.
6. To avoid the possibility of fire or explosion:
a. Do not wash or dry items that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked
in or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents or other flammable or explosive
substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode. Hand wash and line
dry any items containing these substances. Any material on which you have used a
cleaning solvent, or which is saturated with flammable liquids or solids, should not
be placed in the clothes washer until all traces of these liquids or solids and their
fumes have been removed.
These items include acetone, denatured alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, some liquid
household cleaners, some spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers.
b. Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive
substances to the wash water. These substances give off vapors that could ignite or
explode.
c. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that
has not been used for 2 weeks or more.
HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for
such a period, before using a washing machine or combination washer-dryer, turn
on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This
will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, do not smoke
or use an open flame during this time.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will

in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric
shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance - if it
will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
WARNING

10_ Installing the washing machine
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
washer, replace the hose with a longer, high pressure one.
To connect the water supply hose:
1. Take the L-shaped arm fitting for the water supply
hoses and connect to the water supply intake on the
back of the washer.
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.
Optional:
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 washer should be connected to the water faucets using new hose-sets.
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 between 24
and 35 inches. To keep the drain hose spout bent, use the
supplied plastic hose guide. Secure the hose guide to a
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 24 inches
above the ground.
ln a drain pipe
Samsung recommends that you use a 26 inch high vertical pipe; it must be no shorter than 24 inches
and no longer than 35 inches.
