Important safety precautions
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using
your 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.
3. Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close supervision of children is 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.

Installation requirements
Electrical supply and grounding
• AC 120 V / 60 Hz / 15 AMP 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. Water taps must be within 4 ft. (122 cm) from the rear of the washer so that the inlet
hoses reach the washer.
To reduce the risk of leaks:
• Make sure water taps 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. (460 mm) high. The drain hose must be connected through the
hose clip to the standpipe, and the standpipe must fully cover the drain hose.
Untitled-4 19 2023-08-07 12:16:48
Installation
English20
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 can cause damage to belts, the pump, and other
components of the washer.

Laundry guidelines
STEP 1 Sort
Sort the laundry according to these criteria:
• Care Label: Sort the laundry into cottons, mixed fibers, 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 woolen 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 and drain pump.
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.
Untitled-4 28 2023-08-07 12:16:52
English 29
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 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 Level 2 or Level 3, and the load
capacity is 7 lb (3.0 kg) or less.
CAUTION
If the laundry is unbalanced and the “UB” information code is displayed, redistribute the load. Unbalanced
laundry may reduce spinning performance.
STEP 5 Add the correct detergent type
The type of detergent you use - general purpose, specifically for woolens, etc. - depends on the type of
fabric (cotton, synthetic, delicate items, wool), color, wash temperature, and degree of soiling. Regardless
of the specific type of detergent you use, 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 your local water authority.
• Do not use detergent that tends to harden or solidify. This detergent may remain after the rinse cycle,
blocking the detergent dispenser and drain outlet.
CAUTION
When washing wool using the WOOL cycle, use only a neutral liquid detergent. Powdered detergent used
with the WOOL cycle can remain on the laundry and discolor it.
Untitled-4 29 2023-08-07 12:16:52
Before you start
English30
Use HE detergent only
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
For best results, use HE detergents only. Do not use non-
HE detergent, organic detergent, natural detergent or
HE detergents with natural ingredients (such as vinegar,
baking soda).
Detergent drawer guidelines
The washer provides a three-compartment dispenser: the front-left compartment for the main wash, the
front-right for fabric softeners, and the rear-right for the liquid chlorine bleach.
9
A
A. Main-wash compartment: Add main-wash
detergent, water softener, soaking detergent,
color–safe, and/or stain removers.
B. Softener compartment: Add fabric softener. Do
not exceed the max line.
C. Bleach compartment: Add liquid chlorine bleach.
Do not exceed the max line.
CAUTION
• Do not open the detergent drawer while the washer is operating.
• Do not put a tablet or capsule type detergents into the detergent drawer. Put them directly into the
drum.
• Do not use a ball type detergent.
• To prevent the compartment from clogging, concentrated or highly-enriched agents (fabric softener or
detergent) must be diluted with water before being added.
Untitled-4 30 2023-08-07 12:16:52
English 31
To add washing agents to the detergent drawer
1. Slide open the detergent drawer.
2. Add liquid laundry detergent to the liquid detergent
container in the main wash compartment.
CAUTION
• Make sure the liquid detergent container is inserted
in the main wash compartment.
• Do not exceed the marked max line (A).
NOTE
• Do not add powdered laundry detergent or other
powdered laundry agents to the liquid laundry
container.
• To use powdered detergent, see page 31.
9
3. Add fabric softener to the softener compartment. Do
not exceed the max line (B).
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. 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.
Untitled-4 31 2023-08-07 12:16:53
Before you start
English32
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 used properly.
To use oxygen 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 powdered detergent and powdered oxygen
booster or powdered color-safe bleach, it is more
effective to put them together into the drum before
loading the laundry.
