Safety instructions Throughout this manual, you will see Warning and Caution notes. The warnings, cautions, and the important safety instructions that follow do not cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It is your responsibility to use common sense, caution, and care when installing, maintaining, and operating the dishwasher. Samsung is not liable for damages resulting from improper use.
Safety instructions California Proposition 65 Warning WARNING: Cancer and Reproductive Harm - www.P65Warnings.ca.gov Read all instructions before using the appliance. Install and store the dishwasher inside, away from exposure to weather. CAUTION • • • Safety instructions • Do not install the dishwasher near electrical components. Keep the dishwasher away from open flames. Do not install the dishwasher on a carpet as this is a fire hazard.
Make sure to use a new water supply line. Old lines are susceptible to breakage because they become hardened and may cause property damage due to a water leakage. The dishwasher must be connected to a hot water supply with a temperature between 120 °F (49 °C)~149 °F (65 °C). This temperature range provides the best washing result and shortest cycle time. Temperature should not exceed 149 °F (65 °C) to prevent damage to dishes. Ensure that the water supplied to the dishwasher does not freeze.
Installation Be sure that you or your installer follow these instructions closely so that the new dishwasher works properly and that you are not at risk of injury when washing dishes. STEP 1 Check the parts and tools Before starting on the installation, prepare all the necessary tools and parts required to install the dishwasher. This will save installation time and simplify the installation process. Parts required Provided with the dishwasher. Check when you unbox the dishwasher in STEP 5.

NOTE New installation If the dishwasher is a new installation, most of the installation work must be done before the dishwasher is moved into place. Replacement If the dishwasher is replacing an old dishwasher, you must check the exising dishwasher connections for compatibility with the new dishwasher. Replace the existing connections as necessary.
Installation If this is a new installation, follow these steps: 1. Using a 21/2 inch hole saw, cut a hole into the side of the cabinet that holds the sink as shown in Figure 1-1 below. 2. If the base inside the sink cabinet is raised above the kitchen floor and is higher than the connections on the dishwasher, make a hole in the base inside the cabinet and in the cabinet side as shown in Figure 1-2. NOTE Depending on where your electrical outlet is, you may need to cut a hole in the opposite cabinet side.
