Installation requirements
Electrical supply and grounding
• Use an individual branch circuit specific to the
washing machine.
To ensure proper grounding, the washing machine
comes with a power cord featuring a three-prong
grounding plug for use in a properly installed and
grounded outlet.
Check with a qualified electrician or service
person if you are not sure about the grounding.
Do not modify the provided plug. If it does not fit
the outlet, call a qualified electrician to install a
proper outlet.
WARNING
• Do NOT use an extension cord.
• Use only the power cord that comes with the
washing machine.
• Do NOT connect the ground wire to plastic
plumbing, gas lines, or hot water pipes.
• Improperly connected grounding conductors
may cause electric shock.
Water supply
A proper water pressure for this washing machine
is between 50 kPa and 1000 kPa. Water pressure
less than 50 kPa may cause the water valve not to
close completely. Or, it may take longer to fill the
drum, causing the washing machine to turn off.
Water taps must be within 120 cm from the rear
of the washing machine so that the provided inlet
hoses reach the washing machine.
To reduce the risk of leaks:
• Make sure water taps are easily accessible.
• Turn off the taps when the washing machine is
not in use.
• Check for any leaks at the water inlet hose
fittings on a regular basis.
CAUTION
Before using the washing machine for the first
time, check all connections at the water valve and
taps for any leaks.
Drain
Samsung recommends a standpipe in height of
60-90 cm. The drain hose must be connected
through the hose clip to the standpipe, and the
standpipe must fully cover the drain hose.
