Installation Requirements - Samsung WD9 T Series Manual

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

Installation requirements

Electrical supply and grounding
Use an individual branch circuit specific to the washing machine.
To ensure proper grounding, the washing machine 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 suitable outlet.
WARNING
• Do NOT use an extension cord.
• Use only the power cord that comes with the washing machine.
• Do NOT connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing, gas lines, or hot water pipes.
• Improperly connected grounding conductors may cause electric shock.
Water supply
The proper water pressure for this washing machine is between 50 kPa and 1000 kPa. Water pressure less than
50 kPa may cause the water valve to not close completely, or it may take longer to fill the drum, causing the washing
machine to turn off. Water taps must be within 120 cm from the rear of the washing machine so that the provided
inlet hoses reach the washing machine.
To reduce the risk of leaks:
• Make sure water taps are easily accessible.
• Turn off the taps when the washing machine is not in use.
• Check for any leaks at the water inlet hose fittings on a regular basis.
CAUTION
Before using the washing machine for the first time, check all connections at the water valve and taps for any leaks.
Drain
Samsung recommends a standpipe 60-90 cm high. The drain hose must be connected through the hose clip to the
standpipe, and the standpipe must fully cover the drain hose.
