User Manual

Installation

Follow these instructions carefully to ensure proper installation of the washer and to prevent accidents when doing laundry.

What’s included

Make sure all the parts are included in the product package. If you have a problem with the washer or the parts, contact a local Samsung customer center or your retailer.

NOTE

  • Bolt caps: The provided number (3 to 6) of bolt caps depends on the model. The appearance of the machine and provided accessories may differ with the model.
  • To purchase an accessory or lost part, contact a local Samsung service center, Samsung Customer Care, or your retailer.
  • The Smart Home Adapter is available for purchase only on the Samsung website.

CAUTION

  • Do not reuse old water hoses, which may leak or burst, causing flooding and/or property damage.
  • Make sure rubber washers are inserted in each coupling of the water hose.

Installation requirements

Electrical supply and grounding

  • AC 120 V / 60 Hz fuse or circuit breaker is required.
  • Use an individual branch circuit. Connect only the washer to the circuit.

To ensure proper grounding, the washer 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 washer.
  • Do NOT connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing, gas lines, or hot water pipes.
  • Improperly connected grounding conductors may cause electric shock.
  • To prevent unnecessary risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal injury, all wiring and grounding must be done in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/ NFPA No. 70-Latest Revision (for the U.S.) or the Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1 – Latest Revisions and local codes and ordinances. It is your responsibility to provide adequate electrical service for your washer.

Water supply

Proper water pressure for this washer is between 20-116 psi (137-800 kPa). Water pressure less than 20 psi (137 kPa) may cause the water valve not to close completely. Or, it may take longer to fill the drum, causing the washer to turn off. Faucets must be within 4 feet (122 cm) from the rear of the washer so that the provided inlet hoses reach the washer.

To reduce the risk of leaks:

  • Make sure faucets are easily accessible.
  • Turn off the taps when the washer is not in use.
  • Check for any leaks at the water inlet hose fittings on a regular basis.

CAUTION: Before using the washer for the first time, check all connections at the water valve and taps for any leaks.

Drain

Samsung recommends a standpipe 18 in (46 cm) high. The drain hose must be connected through the hose clip to the standpipe, and the standpipe must fully cover the drain hose.

Flooring

For best performance, the washer must be installed on a solid floor. Wood floors may need to be reinforced to minimize vibration and/or unbalanced loads. Carpeting and soft tile surfaces do not provide good resistance to vibrations and may cause the washer to move slightly during the spin cycle.

CAUTION: Do NOT install the washer on a platform or a poorly supported structure.

Water temperature

Do not install the washer in areas where water may freeze as the washer always retains some water in its water valves, pumps, and/or hoses. Frozen water left in the connection parts may cause damage to belts, the pump, and other components of the washer.

Alcove or closet installation

Minimum clearance for stable operation:

If both the washer and a dryer are installed in the same location, the front of the alcove or closet must have at least a 72 in2 (465 cm2) unobstructed air opening. Your washer alone does not require a specific air opening.

Side by side installation

Stacked installation (Model: SKK-7A)

WARNING

  • Samsung’s washers and dryers can be stacked to maximize usable space.
  • The dryer legs need to be removed to stack the washer and dryer. You can purchase an optional stacking kit from your Samsung retailer.

Step-by-step installation

STEP 1 Select a location

Location requirements:

  • A solid, level surface without carpeting or flooring that may obstruct ventilation
  • No direct sunlight
  • Adequate room for ventilation and wiring
  • Ambient temperature always higher than the freezing point (32 ̊F/0 ̊C)

Away from heat sources

STEP 2 Remove the shipping bolts

Unpack the product package and remove all shipping bolts.

1. Loosen all shipping bolts on the rear of the machine using the spanner.

NOTE: An adjustable wrench or 10 mm open- end wrench is required for removing the shipping bolts.

2. Fill the holes with the supplied plastic bolt caps. Keep the shipping bolts for future use.

WARNING: Packaging materials can be dangerous to children. Dispose all packaging material (plastic bags, polystyrene, etc.) out of children’s reach.

STEP 3 Adjust the levelling feet

1. Gently slide the washer into position. Excessive force may damage the levelling feet.

2. Level the washer by manually adjusting the levelling feet.

3. When levelling is complete, tighten the nuts using the spanner.

NOTE: An adjustable wrench or 17 mm open- end wrench is required to loosen or tighten the leveling feet.

STEP 4 Connect the water hose

CAUTION

  • Make sure you use a new water hose, and there are rubber gaskets (B) inside the couplings (A) at either end of the water hose. A water hose without the gasket may leak.
  • If there is a water leak, stop using the washer and contact a local Samsung service center. A water leak may cause electric shock.
  • Do not stretch the water hose by force.
  • If the hose is too short, replace the hose with a longer, high-pressure hose.
  • To prevent leaks, make sure both water hoses are not bent or kinked. A water leak may cause electric shock.

To connect the water hoses to the faucets:

1. Connect one end of each water hose to the Hot or Cold tap.
2. Turn the fittings by hand until they are tight, and then tighten them by just an additional two-thirds of a turn with a plier. Do not overtighten the fittings. You can damage them.
3. When done, pull the water hoses up and down to check if they are properly connected.

4. Put the other ends of the hoses into a bucket and open the taps for 10-15 seconds to remove impurities. When done, close the taps.

5. Connect the other ends of the water hoses to the corresponding inlets on the rear of the machine as specified. Make sure the hot water hose is connected to the hot inlet, and the cold water hose to the cold inlet.

6. Repeat step 2 above on the other fittings. Make sure both water hoses are connected properly. See the ‘4C’ information code for troubleshooting.

7. Open both faucets, and check if there is a leak.

NOTE: If you do not want to use the hot water hose, insert the inlet cap into the hot water inlet. In this case, you must select Tap Cold for the water temperature. All other water indicators turn off.

CAUTION: To prevent water hoses from being bent or kinked, make sure there is at least a 6 inch (150 mm) space between the washer and the rear wall.

STEP 5 Position the drain hose

The drain hose can be positioned in three ways:

Over the edge of a wash basin

The drain hose must be placed at a height of between 24 in. (60 cm) and 35 in. (90 cm) from the floor. To keep the spout of the drain hose bent, use the supplied plastic hose guide (A). Secure the guide to the wall using a hook to ensure stable drainage.

ln a standpipe or laundry tub

The laundry tub (B) or standpipe (C) must be no shorter than 18 in. (46 cm) and no higher or longer than 96 inches (245 cm). Make sure the drain hose and the standpipe are not airtight.

NOTE: D: Hose retainer / E: Tie straps

CAUTION

  • Connect the hose guide (A) within 6 in. (15 cm)* of the end of the drain hose.
  • If the drain hose is extended beyond the end of the hose guide, mold or microorganisms could spread inside the washer.
  • The drain hose can be installed up to 96 in. (245 cm) high, but the draining capability can be reduced at the maximum height. Water remaining in the drain system may cause an odour.
  • If the drain hose is installed less than 18 in. (46 cm) high, water can be drained during the process due to a siphon phenomenon. If this happens, a ‘4C’ information code appears on the display.

Laundry guidelines

STEP 1 Sort

Sort the laundry according to these criteria:

  • Care Label: Sort the laundry into cottons, mixed fibres, synthetics, silks, wools, and rayon.
  • Color: Separate whites from colors.
  • Size: Mixing different sized items together in the drum improves the washing performance.
  • Sensitivity: Wash delicate items separately for pure, new woollen items, curtains, and silk items. Check the labels on the items.

NOTE: Make sure to check the care label on all clothing, and sort clothing accordingly before starting the wash.

STEP 2 Empty pockets

Empty all the pockets of your laundry items

  • Metal objects such as coins, pins, and buckles on clothing may damage other laundry items as well as the drum.

Turn clothing with buttons and embroideries inside out

  • If pants or jacket zippers are open while washing, the drum may be damaged. Zippers should be closed and fixed with a string.
  • Clothing with long strings may become entangled with other clothes. Make sure to tie the strings before starting the wash.

STEP 3 Use a laundry net

  • Brassieres (water washable) must be placed in a laundry net. Metal parts of the brassieres may break through and tear other laundry items.
  • Small, light clothing such as socks, gloves, stockings, and handkerchiefs may become caught around the door.
  • Place them inside a fine laundry net.
  • Do not wash the laundry net by itself without other laundry. This may cause abnormal vibrations that could move the washer and result in injury.

STEP 4 Prewash (if necessary)

Select the Prewash option for the selected cycle if the laundry is heavily soiled. Do not use the Prewash option if you will be adding detergent manually to the drum.

STEP 5 Determine the load capacity

Do not overload the washer. Overloading may cause the washer to wash improperly.

NOTE: When washing bedding or bedding covers, the wash time may be lengthened or the spin efficiency may be reduced. For bedding or bedding covers, the recommended maximum spin level is “Low or Medium Spin”, and the load capacity is kg or less.

CAUTION: If the laundry is unbalanced and the “Ub” information code is displayed, redistribute the load. Unbalanced laundry may reduce the spinning performance.

STEP 6 Add the correct detergent type

The type of detergent depends on the type of fabric (cotton, synthetic, delicate items, wool), color, wash temperature, and degree of soiling. Always use “low suds” HE laundry detergent which is designed for automatic washers.

NOTE

  • Follow the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations based on the weight of the laundry, the degree of soiling, and the hardness of the water in your local area. If you are not sure about the water hardness, contact a local water authority.
  • Do not use detergent that tends to be hardened or solidified. This detergent may remain after the rinse cycle, blocking the drain outlet.

CAUTION: When washing wool using the WOOL, use only a neutral liquid detergent. If used with WOOL, powder detergent may remain on the laundry and discolor the laundry.

Use HE detergent only

Your washer is designed to use high efficiency (HE) detergents.

  • For the best cleaning results, use a high efficiency detergent such as Tide HE, Wisk HE, Cheer HE or Gain HE*. High efficiency detergents contain suds suppressors that reduce or eliminate suds. When fewer suds are produced, the load tumbles more efficiently and cleaning is maximized. (* Brand names are trademarks of their respective manufacturers.)

WARNING: Regular detergent is not recommended. Use HE detergents only.

Detergent drawer guidelines

The washer provides a four-compartment dispenser: the front-left compartment for the main wash, the rear-left for pre-wash, the front-right for fabric softeners, and the rear- right for the liquid chlorine bleach.

  1. Prewash compartment(A): Add prewash detergent or starch.
  2. Main-wash compartment(B): Add main- wash detergent, water softener, soaking detergent, color–safe, non–chlorine bleach, and/or stain removers.
  3. Softener compartment(C): Add fabric softener. Do not exceed the max line.
  4. Bleach compartment(D): Add liquid chlorine bleach. Do not exceed the max line.

CAUTION

  • Do not open the detergent drawer while the washer is operating.
  • Do not use the following types of detergent:
- Tablet or capsule types
- Ball or net types
  • To prevent the compartment from clogging, concentrated or highly-enriched agents fabric softener or detergent) must be diluted with water before being added.

To add washing agents to the detergent drawer

Adding liquid detergent

1. Slide open the detergent drawer.

2. Add the liquid laundry detergent to the liquid detergent container in the main wash compartment. Make sure that the detergent does not exceed the marked max line (A).

NOTE

  • Do not add powdered laundry de-tergent or other powdered laundry agents to the liquid laundry con-tainer.
  • To use powdered detergent, see page 32.

3. Add fabric softener to the softener compartment. Do not exceed the max line (A).

CAUTION

  • Powdered fabric softener is not recommended. Use liquid fabric softener only.
  • Concentrated fabric softener must be diluted with water before being added.
  • Do not add main-wash detergent to the softener compartment.

4. If you want to prewash, add prewash detergent to the prewash compartment as instructed or recommended by the manufacturer.

NOTE: If you use a high efficiency (HE detergent, apply 1/3 of the recommended amount to the prewash compartment and 2/3 of the recommended amount to the main- wash compartment.

5. Close the detergent drawer.

To use powdered detergent

First, remove the provided liquid detergent container from the main- wash compartment. Then, add powdered detergent to the main- wash compartment according to the detergent manufacturer’s instructions.

CAUTION; Do not add powdered detergent to the liquid detergent container.

To use the bleach compartment

Add only liquid chlorine bleach to the bleach compartment. Do not exceed the max line.

CAUTION: Do not add undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly to the load or to the drum. It is a powerful chemical and can cause fabric damage, such as weakening of the fibers or color loss if not use properly.

To use oxigen boosters or color-safe bleach

Oxygen boosters or color-safe bleach can increase washing performance.Make sure to add the oxygen booster or color-safe bleach after putting the laundry into the drum.

NOTE: To use both powder detergent and powder oxygen booster or powder color-safe bleach, it is more effective to put them together into the drum before loading the laundry.
