INSTRUCTIONS WHEN USING YOUR DISHWASHER

This dishwasher is not designed for commercial use. It is intended for use in domestic households and in similar working and residential environments such as:

• O ces and showrooms and by residents in establishments such as:

• Hostels and guest houses. It must only be used as a domestic appliance as specifi ed in these user manual, for cleaning domestic crockery and cutlery. Any other usage is not supported by the manufacturer and could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage resulting from incorrect or improper use or operation. Do not use solvents in the dishwasher. Danger of explosion. Do not inhale or ingest dishwasher detergent. Dishwasher detergents contain irritant or corrosive ingredients which can cause burning in the nose, mouth and throat if swallowed, or inhibit breathing. Consult a doctor immediately if detergent has been swallowed or inhaled. Avoid leaving the door open unnecessarily, as you could trip over it. Do not sit or lean on the opened door. This could cause the dishwasher to tip and be damaged, and you could get injured. Only use detergent and rinse aid formulated for domestic dishwashers. Do not use washing‐up liquid. Do not use the strong acid cleaning agent. Do not fi ll the rinse aid reservoir with powder or liquid detergent. This will cause serious damage to the reservoir. Inadvertently fi lling the salt reservoir with powder or liquid dishwasher detergent will damage the water softener. Make sure you have picked up the correct packet of dishwasher salt before fi lling the salt reservoir. Please only use special coarse grained dishwasher salt for reactivation, as other salts may contain insoluble additives which can impair the functioning of the softener. In an appliance with a cutlery basket (depending on model), cutlery is cleaned and dried more if placed in e ciently the basket with the handles downwards. However, to avoid the risk of injury, place knives and forks etc. with the handles upwards. Plastic items which cannot withstand being washed in hot water, such as disposable plastic containers, or plastic cutlery and crockery should not be cleaned in the dishwasher. The high temperatures in the dishwasher may cause them to melt or lose shape. On models with Delay Start function, make sure that the dispenser is dry before adding detergent. Wipe dry if necessary. Detergent will clog if poured into a damp dispenser and may not be thoroughly dispersed. Knives and other utensils with sharp points must be loaded in the basket with their points down or placed in a horizontal position.

Power supply and grounding Do not use an extension cord. Only use the power cord that came with the dishwasher. When preparing for the installation, ensure that your power supply o ers:

• An AC 220-240 V / 50 Hz fuse or a circuit breaker.

• An individual branch circuit serving your dishwasher. Your dishwasher must be grounded. If your dishwasher malfunctions or breaks down, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for the electric current. Your dishwasher comes with a power cord and a grounded, three-prong plug that can be inserted into a properly installed and grounded outlet. Do not connect the ground wire to a plastic plumbing line, gas line, or hot water pipe. Improperly connecting the grounding conductor can result in electric shock. Check with a qualifi ed electrician or technician if you are unsure whether your dishwasher has been properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the dishwasher. If it does not fi t the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualifi ed electrician. Water supply Do not drink the water from inside the dishwasher.

• The dishwasher may be connected to a cold or hot water supply, max 60 ºC.

• A stopcock with a 3/4” male thread must be provided on tap.

• The water pressure must be between 0.05MPa and 0.8MPa. If the water pressure is to less, the water supply valve may not operated properly causing the dishwasher to turn o . If the water pressure is too high, a pressure reducer valve must be fi tted. You can reduce the risk of leaks and water damage by:

• Making water taps easily accessible.

• Turning o the taps when the dishwasher is not in use.

• Periodically checking the fi ttings for leaks. Using Aqua-Stop The Aqua-Stop was invented as the perfect leakage protection system. It is attached to the water supply hose and automatically cuts o the water fl ow in the event of damage to the hose. Aqua-Stop is an electrical component.

• Take care that you do not damage the Aqua-Stop.

• Do not twist or bend the water supply hose connected to the Aqua-Stop. If the Aqua-Stop has been damaged, shut o the water taps and pull out the power plug right away. Once these steps have been taken, contact Samsung Customer Service or a qualifi ed technician. Drain If you are using a drain exclusively for the dishwasher, connect the drain hose to a drain that is between 30cm to 70cm o the ground. Connecting the drain hose to a drain more than 80cm o the ground can result the water in the dishwater fl owing back or draining incompletely.

USING THE WATER SOFTENING SYSTEM

Better washing results require the use of soft water.Hard water contains impurities that can hinder the washing performance.You will need to soften the water if the water supply is harder than 1.0mmol/ℓ (6°d – German scale). To do this, you need:• Dishwasher salt.• Confi guration of the water hardness level according to your area.For more information about the water hardness level in your area, contact your local water department.If the hardness level of your water supply is unsteady, set the dishwasher to the highest measurement. For example, if the water hardness reading ranges from 6.7mmol/ℓ to 9.0mmol/ℓ, set the dishwasher to 9.0mmol/ℓ.The dishwasher’s default water hardness level setting is 3 (4.0-5.5mmol/ℓ). If this setting matches the water hardness level in your area, there is no need to change it.If you need to change the water hardness level, follow the instructions below. Setting the water hardness level

1. While holding down the Delay Start and Half Load buttons, press the Power button to

access the setting for the water hardness level.

2. Once you enter the setting for the water hardness, the current hardness level setting is displayed.

3. Use the Half Load button to select the water hardness level from Level 0 to Level 5. (Refer to the table below for the water hardness level setting in your area.)If the water hardness level in your area is very low, you do not need to use dishwasher salt. However, you set the water hardness setting for the dishwasher to 0.4. To exit the water hardness setting, press the Power button.

Filling the salt reservoir In order to use soft water, you need to fi ll the salt reservoir with dishwasher salt. Use dishwasher salt only. Do not use any other type of salt or solvent. This may damage the salt reservoir and the water softening system. Always fi ll the salt reservoir just before running one of complete washing programmes to prevent corrosion due to the excess salt or salty water.

2. Open the salt reservoir cap by rotating it counterclockwise.

3. Fill the salt reservoir with water(only required when switching on the

appliance for the fi rst time)

4. Add the dishwasher salt.

The salt reservoir’s capacity is about 1kg. Do not overfi ll the salt reservoir.

5. Remove excess salt from around the salt reservoir opening and cap

seal. If the excess salt is not removed, the salt reservoir cap may not close properly and allow salt water fl ow out with negative impact to the performance.

6. Rotate the salt reservoir cap clockwise until it is completely shut.

Recommended that if spilled a lot of salt or salty water to inside Tub, run the Prewash to clean inside Tub. Any remaining salt grain or salty water can occur corrosion. Depending on the size of the salt grains, it may take a while for the salt to dissolve and the “Salt Refi ll ” indicator to turn o .
