Installation
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.
