SAMSUNG Washing Machine Owner’s Instructions A-1

Safety Precautions

Congratulations on your purchase of the new washing machine. These Owner’s Instructions contain

valuable information on the installation, use, and care of this appliance. Please take the time to read

these instructions so that you can take full advantage of the washing machine’s features and enjoy this

appliance for many years to come.

Before using the appliance

• Packing materials can be dangerous to children; keep all packing material (plastic bags,

polystyrene, etc.) well out of the reach of children.

• The appliance is designed for home use only.

• Make sure that water and electrical connections are made by qualiﬁed technicians, observing the

manufacturer’s instructions (see, “Installation Instructions,” page 4) and local safety regulations.

• All packing and transit brackets must be removed before the appliance is used. Serious damage

may occur if they are not removed. See “Removing the transit bolts” on page 5.

• Perform the ﬁrst wash cycle without any laundry (See page 9).

WARNING

Always observe Safety Precautions when using your washer. See “Important Safety Instructions” on

the next page.

Never try to repair the washer on your own – dangerous voltage is inside.

If the washer needs to be repaired, call an authorized service center near you.

* Please record the serial number from the back of your washer and the date of purchase in the

space provided below.

We recommend that you keep your purchase receipt with this manual for easy warranty service.

A-2 SAMSUNG Washing Machine Owner’s Instructions

Important Safety Instructions

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of ﬁre, explosion, electric shock, property damage or injury to persons when

using your appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following

Safety Precautions

1. Read all safety instructions before using the

appliance.

2. As with any equipment using electricity and

having moving parts, there are potential hazards.

To use this appliance safely, the operator should

become familiar with the instructions for

operation of the appliance and always exercise

care when using it.

3. Do not install or store this appliance where it will

be exposed to bad weather..

4. Install and level the washing machine on a ﬂoor

that can support the weight.

5. This appliance must be properly grounded. Never

plug the appliance cord into a receptacle which

is not grounded adequately and in accordance

with local and national codes. See installation

instructions for grounding this appliance.

6. To avoid the possibility of ﬁre or explosion:

a. Do not wash or dry items that have been

previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or

spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents

or other ﬂammable or explosive substances

as they give oﬀ vapors that could ignite or

explode. Hand wash and line dry any items

containing these substances.

Any material on which you have used a

cleaning solvent, or which is saturated with

ﬂammable liquids or solids, should not be

placed in the clothes washer until all traces of

these liquids or solids and their fumes have

been removed.

These items include acetone, denatured

alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, some liquid

household cleaners, some spot removers,

turpentine, waxes and wax removers.

b. 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.

c. 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 washing machine 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.

7. Do not reach into the appliance if the tub is

moving.

8. Do not allow children to play on or in the

appliance. Close supervision of children is

necessary when the appliance is used near

children.

9. Do not tamper with controls.

10. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance

or attempt any servicing unless speciﬁcally

recommended in published user- repair

instructions that you understand and have the

skills to carry out.

11. Unplug power supply cord before attempting to

service your washing machine.

12. Store laundry aids and other material in a cool,

dry place where children cannot reach them.

13. Do not wash or dry items that are soiled with

vegetable or cooking oil. These items may

contain some oil after laundering. Due to the

remaining oil, the fabric may smoke or catch ﬁre

by itself.

14. Do not use chlorine bleach and ammonia or acids

(such as vinegar or rust remover) in the same

wash.

Hazardous fumes can form.

15. Do not wash ﬁberglass materials.

Small particles can stick to fabrics washed in

subsequent loads and cause skin irritation.

16. Before the appliance is removed from service

or discarded, remove the door to the washing

compartment.

17. Do not sit on top of the clothes washer.

18. Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam

rubber or similarly textured rubber-like materials.

19. Do not use fabric softeners or products to

eliminate static unless recommended by the

manufacturer of the fabric softener.

SAMSUNG Washing Machine Owner’s Instructions A-3

Grounding instructions

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce

the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance is

equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must

be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all

local codes and ordinances.

WARNING:

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric

shock. Check with a qualiﬁed electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the

appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance - if it

will not ﬁt the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualiﬁed electrician

Use of extension cords

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce

the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or

tripping over a longer cord.

Longer cord sets or extension cords are available

and may be used if care is exercised in their use.

If a long cord or extension cord is used,

1. The marked electrical rating of the cord set

or extension cord should be at least as great

as the electrical rating of the appliance.

2. The extension cord must be a grounding-

type 3-wire cord and it must be plugged

into a 3-slot outlet.

3. The longer cord should be arranged so that

it will not be pulled on by children or tripped

over unintentionally.

WARNING:

Do not cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord under any

circumstances.

Preferred method of grounding

Plug the three-prong power cord into a properly grounded outlet of standard 120 VAC, 60 Hz. Your

washer should be the only appliance on this circuit.

Washing tips and hints

Sorting your laundry : Sort your laundry according to the following characteristics:

• Type of fabric care label symbol : Sort laundry into cottons, mixed ﬁbers, synthetics, silks, wools

and rayon.

• Colour : Divide whites and colours. Wash new, coloured items separately.

• Size : Placing items of diﬀerent sizes in the same load will improve the washing action.

• Sensitivity : Wash delicate items separately, using the Delicate wash program for pure new wool,

curtains and silk articles. Check the labels on the items you are washing or refer to the fabric care

chart in the appendix.

Emptying pockets : Coins, safety pins and similar items can damage linen, the washing machine drum,

and the water tank.

Securing fasteners : Close zippers and fasten buttons or hooks; loose belts or ribbons should be tied

together.

Detergent tips : The type of detergent you should use is based on the type of fabric (cotton, perm press,

delicate items, knit/wool), colour, wash temperature, degree and type of soiling. Always use “low suds”

laundry soap, which is designed for automatic washing machines.

Follow the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations based upon the weight of the laundry, the

degree of soiling, and the hardness of the water in your area. If you do not know how hard your water is,

ask your water authority.

Notice:

Keep detergents and additives in a safe, dry place out of the reach of children.
