s Instructions 

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.

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 you use a 65 cm high vertical pipe; it must be no shorter than 60 cm

and no longer than 90 cm.
