2_ features of your new VRT™ STEAM washer
features of your new VRT™
STEAM washer
1. ActivFresh™
Washing in cold water is energy efficient and better for your clothes.
2. VRT™ (Vibration Reduction Technology)
This Samsung washer performs smoothly at top spin speeds, minimizing noise and
vibration.
3. Super capacity
Samsung’s extra-large capacity laundry machine can wash a full set of your bedding, a king-
size comforter, or up to 26 bath towels in a single load. Since you don’t have to do as many
loads, you save time, money, water and energy.
4. Deep steam
The deep steam feature boosts cleaning performance and loosens grime and dirt, thus
providing superior cleaning results.
5. Diamond drum™
Take gentle care of your fabrics. With inside holes 36% smaller than those of conventional
drums, the diamond drum prevents fabrics from sticking out and consequently being
damaged.
6. Stylish design
The stylish design of this washer blends well with your environment.
7. Digital display & Center jog dial
The jog dial enables you to select cycles in both directions with ease, and the display is easy
to use and understand.
8. DD(Direct-drive) Motor
The power to handle anything! Our direct-drive inverter motor delivers power right to the
washer drum from a variable speed, reversible motor. A beltless direct-drive motor generates
a higher spin speed of 1,200 rpm for more effective, quiet operation. The washer also has
fewer moving parts, meaning fewer repairs.
9. Sanitize
When selecting this cycle, the water heats to an extra high temperature to remove 99.9%
of certain bacteria typically found on clothing, bedding, or towels. This certification is
conducted by NSF International, an independent third-party testing and certification
organization.
Please check garment care label to avoid garment damage. Only Sanitize cycles have been
designed to meet the requirements of this protocol for sanitization efficacy.

Commercial, Family-Sized Clothes Washers

appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2. Do not wash or dry articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in,
or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, other flammable or explosive substances
as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.

necessary when the appliance is used near children.
4. Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to the
washing or drying compartment.
5. Do not reach into the appliance if the drum is moving.
6. Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather.
7. Do not tamper with controls.
8. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing unless
specifically recommended in the user-maintenance instructions or in published user-
repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.
9. 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.
10.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 washer 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.
