Setting up your dishwasher
Water supply
Do not drink the water from inside the dishwasher.
• The dishwasher may be connected to a cold or hot water supply, max 60ºC.
• A stopcock with a 3/4” male thread must be provided on tap.
• The water pressure must be between 0.05MPa and 0.8MPa. If the water pressure is to less, the water
supply valve may not operated properly causing the dishwasher to turn off . If the water pressure is too
high, a pressure reducer valve must be fi tted.
You can reduce the risk of leaks and water damage by:
• Making water taps easily accessible.
• Turning
off the taps when the dishwasher is not in use.
• Periodically checking the fi ttings for leaks.
Using Aqua-Stop
The Aqua-Stop was invented as the perfect leakage protection system.
It is attached to the water supply hose and automatically cuts off the water fl ow in the event of damage to
the hose.
Aqua-Stop is an electrical component.
• Take care that you do not damage the Aqua-Stop.
• Do not twist or bend the water supply hose connected to the Aqua-Stop.
If the Aqua-Stop has been damaged, shut off the water taps and pull out the power plug right away.
Once these steps have been taken, contact Samsung Customer Service or a qualifi ed technician.
Drain
If you are using a drain exclusively for the dishwasher, connect the drain hose to a drain that is between
30cm to 70cm off the ground.
Connecting the drain hose to a drain more than 80cm off the ground can result the water in the dishwater
fl owing back or draining incompletely.
Flooring
For best performance, your dishwasher must be installed on a solid, even fl oor.
Wooden fl oors may need to be reinforced to minimize vibrations. Carpeting and soft tiles are contributing
factors to vibrations and may cause your dishwasher to move slightly while operating.
Never install your dishwasher on a platform or poorly supported structure.
Ambient temperature
Do not install your dishwasher in an area exposed to freezing temperatures. Your dishwasher always retains
some water in the water valve, pump and hose and if the water freezes in the machine or hoses, it may
damage the appliance and its components.
Test run
Make sure that you install your dishwasher correctly by running the
Quick
or
Prewash
cycle after the
installation is complete.
