  • Page 4 Washing dishes can be noisy, especially in the evening or when watching TV. Most of the noise is from the motor on the bottom and the water spraying system. Samsung employs two technologies to reduce the sound. The water pump is tightly isolated and the door uses a 6 layer insulation system.
  • Page 5 Hidden Dryer Element Problem - Exposed heating elements at the bottom of the tub can directly contact plastics, melting them. Also, potential burn hazard picking up small items right a f t e r t h e c y c l e i s f i n i s h e d . Solution - The heating element is hidden below the all-stainless tub.
  • Page 6 Some dishwashers leave heavy residue from dishes in a "catch", which must be manually cleaned. Samsung uses a hard food disposer with a triple filtration system. This is connected to a built in garbage disposal. This reduces the residue that...
  • Page 7 Loading Flexibility Problem - Afraid to wash delicate items like wine glasses? Can't fit those new larger 14" plates under the top rack? Solution - Tilted Rack With tilted rack system, more space is provided to give you infinite freedom to load extra, even odd-sized items.
  • Page 8 Leakage Detector A slow leak around your dishwasher can damage your floor or cabinets well before it is noticed. Samsung has includes a leakage detector under the water reservoir that shuts off the water supply when a leak is detected.
  • Page 9: Wash Arms

    3 Wash Arms Problem - Not getting good washing performance in all rack positions? Solution - Samsung uses 3 wash arms, top (1), middle (2), and bottom (3). How it Works - Tilted Nozzle System Our main water spraying arm in the middle is tilted.
  • Page 10 Condensed Drying The fan driven condensation system captures the latent heat of the wash heater to promote faster drying. Another benefit of this system is the removal of steam vents which might burn small children.
