1. Safety instructions

1-1. Safety instructions for service engineers


► Be sure to observe the following instructions to operate the product correctly and safely to prevent possible accidents
and hazards while servicing.
► Two types of safety symbols, Warning and Caution, are used in the safety instructions.

Hazards or unsafe practices that may result in severe personal injury or death.
WARNING

Hazards or unsafe practices that may result in minor personal injury or property damage.
CAUTION

WARNING BEFORE SERVICING

• (When servicing electrical parts or harnesses) Make sure to disconnect the power plug before servicing.
4 Failing to do so may result in a risk of electric shock.

• Do not allow consumers to connect several appliances to a single power outlet at the
same time.
4 There is a risk of fire due to overheating.

• When removing the power cord, make sure to hold the power plug when pulling the plug
from the outlet.
4 Failing to do so may damage the plug and result in fire or electric shock.

• When the washing machine is not being used, make sure to disconnect the power plug
from the power outlet.
4 Failing to do so may result in electric shock or fire due to lightning.

• Do not place or use gasoline, thinners, alcohol, or other flammable or explosive substances near the washing
machine.
4 There is a risk of explosion and fire caused from electric sparks.

Safety Instructions _ 1

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


WARNING WHILE SERVICING

• Check if the power plug and outlet are damaged, flattened, cut or otherwise degraded.
4 If faulty, replace it immediately.
Failing to do so may result in electric shock or fire.

• Completely remove any dust or foreign material from the housing, wiring and connection parts.
4 This will prevent a risk of fire due to tracking and electrical hazard..

• When connecting wires, make sure to connect them using the relevant connectors and check that they are
completely properly.
4 If tape is used instead of the connectors, it may cause fire due to tracking.

• Make sure to discharge the PBA power terminals before starting the service.
4 Failing to do so may result in a high voltage electric shock.

• When replacing the heater, make sure to fasten the nut after ensuring that it is inserted into the bracket-heater.
4 If not inserted into the bracket-heater, it touches the drum and causes noise and electric leakage.

WARNING AFTER SERVICING

• Check the wiring.


4 Ensure that no wire touches a rotating part or a sharpened part of the electrical harness.

• Check for any water leakage.


4 Perform a test run for the washing machine using the standard course and check whether there is any water
leakage through the floor section or the pipes.

• Do not allow consumers to repair or service any part of the washing machine
themselves.
4 This may result in personal injury and shorten the product lifetime.

• If it seems that grounding is needed due to water or moisture, make sure to run
grounding wires. Grounding
(Check the grounding of the power outlet, and additionally ground it to a metallic water terminal
pipe.)
4 Failing to do so may result in electric shock due to electric leakage.

[Running a grounding wire]


- Twist a grounding wire (copper wire) two or three times around the tap.
- If you connect the grounding wire to a copperplate, bury it 75 cm under the earth in a
place with a lot of moisture.
Do not connect the grounding wire to a gas pipe, plastic water pipe or telephone
wire. There is a risk of electric shock or explosion.

CAUTION BEFORE SERVICING

• Do not sprinkle water onto the washing machine directly when cleaning it.
4 This may result in electric shock or fire, and may shorten the product lifetime.

• Do not place any containers with water on the washing machine.


4 If the water is spilled, it may result in electric shock or fire. This will also shorten the
product lifetime.

• Do not install the washing machine in a location exposed to snow or rain.


4 This may result in electric shock or fire, and shorten the product lifetime.

• Do not press a control button using a sharp tool or object.


4 This may result in electric shock or damage to the product.

CAUTION WHILE SERVICING

• When wiring a harness, make sure to seal it completely so no liquid can enter.
4 Make sure that they do not break when force is exerted.

• Check if there is any residue that shows that liquid entered the electric parts or harnesses.
4 If any liquid has entered into a part, replace it or completely remove any remaining moisture from it.

• If you need to place the washing machine on its back for servicing purposes, place a support(s) on the floor and lay it
down carefully so its side is on the floor.
4 Do not lay it down on its front. This may result in the inside tub damaging parts.

CAUTION AFTER SERVICING

• Check the assembled status of the parts.


4 Now is a good time to inspect your work. Review all connections and wiring, including mounting hardware.

• Check the insulation resistance.


4 Disconnect the power cord from the power outlet and measure the insulation resistance between the power plug
and the grounding wire of the washing machine. The value must be greater than 10MΩ when measured with a
500V DC Megger

• Check whether the washing machine is level the floor with respect to the original position
of the washing machine prior to service.
By doing this now will reduce for the need of customer dissatisfaction and redo call.
4 Vibrations can shorten the lifetime of the product.

2-1. Features

Features Description

• Even bulky garments and blankets get super clean. The Great capacity
The Great Capacity
leaves enough room for a more thorough, cleaner wash.

• AquaJet™ washes loads gently and more thoroughly than conventional top
loaders. Sprayed water allows detergent to distribute evenly and penetrate
AquaJet TM
fabrics faster and deeper. AquaJet™ delivers improved cleanliness and
advanced fabric care.

• The power to handle anything! Our direct-drive inverter motor delivers power
right to the washer tub from a variable speed, reversible motor. Beltless
DD Motor
direct-drive motor generates a higher spin speed for more effective, quiet
operation. The washer also has fewer moving parts, meaning fewer repairs.

• A separate nozzle has been adopted that sprays water equally so that the
Mist Shower
rinse cycle is effective even with a small amount of water.

VRT® • This Samsung washer performs smoothly at top spin speeds, minimizing
(Vibration Reduction Technology) noise and vibration.

• If you select this option, the water temperature is set to slightly lower than
Eco Plus
during the normal wash course to save energy.

Self Clean • Clean your drum with one button! This Pure Cycle is specially designed to
remove detergent residue & dirt bulid up in the tub, without the need for
(Tub Cleaning cycle) special chemical detergents.

EZ-Closed Lid • The door is designed to close softly and prevent users from being injured

• This is a convenient function that enables you to save a frequently-used


My Cycle wash course. Once this is set, you can do a wash simply by pressing the
Power, My Cycle and Start buttons in this sequence.

• Samsung’s Smart Care, an automatic Check-monitoring system, detects and


Smart Care
diagnoses problems at an early stage and provides quick and easy solutions.

• Water Jet and Built-in sink help you handwash before the washing machine
Prewash starts operation. Water Jet is available only when the door is open with the
(Water Jet & Built-in sink) water level set to less than High. For prewashing, use the Built-in sink that is
designed to facilitate the hand-wash.
