washing a load of laundry
With your new Samsung washing machine, the hardest part of doing laundry will be
deciding which load to wash first.
WASHINGFORTHEFIRSTTIME
Before washing laundry for the first time, you must run a complete empty cycle (i.e. no laundry).
1. Press the Power button.
2. Add a little detergent to the detergent compartment in
the detergent drawer.
3. Turn on the water supply to the washing machine.
4. Press the Start/Pause button.
This will remove any water that might be left over in the
machine from the manufacturer’s test run.
Compartment : Detergent for prewash, or starch.
Compartment : Detergent for the main wash, water softener, pre-soaking agent, bleach and
stain removal product.
To use liquid detergent, use the liquid detergent box (refer to page 31 of the manual for the
corresponding model). Do not add powdered detergent into the liquid detergent box.
Compartment : Additives, e.g. fabric softener or former (fill no higher than lower edge (MAX)
of “A”)
