Drain

Samsung recommends a standpipe height of 65 cm. The drain hose must be routed through the drain hose clip to the standpipe. The standpipe must be large enough to accept the outside diameter of the drain hose. The drain hose is attached at the factory.

Flooring

For best performance, your washing machine must be installed on a solidly constructed floor. Wood floors may need to be reinforced to minimize vibration and/or unbalanced loads. Carpeting and soft tile surfaces are contributing factors to vibrations and the tendency for your washing machine to move slightly during the spin cycle.

Never install your washing machine on a platform or poorly supported structure.

Surrounding temperature

Do not install your washing machine in areas where water may freeze, since your washing machine always retains some water in its water valve, pump, and hose areas. Frozen water in the lines can cause damage to belts, the pump, and other components.

Alcove or closet installation

To operate safely and properly, your new washing machine requires minimum clearances of:

Sides – 25 mm

Rear – 51 mm

Top – 25 mm

Front – 465 mm

If both the washing machine and a dryer are installed together, the front of the alcove or closet must have at least 465 mm unobstructed air opening. Your washing machine alone does not require a specifc air opening.

Installing your washing machine

STEP 1

Selecting a location

Before you install the washing machine, make sure the location:

Has a hard, level surface without carpeting or flooring that may obstruct ventilation

Is away from direct sunlight

Has adequate ventilation

Will not be freezing (below 32 ˚F or 0 ˚C)

Is away from heat sources such as oil or gas

Has enough space so that the washing machine doesn’t stand on its power cord

One of the main features of both models is their EcoBubble technology. This innovative feature allows the washing machine to create bubbles that penetrate fabric quickly and effectively, ensuring optimal detergent performance even in cold water. As a result, users can enjoy significant energy savings without compromising on cleaning power. This is particularly beneficial for maintaining the integrity of delicate fabrics over time.

The Samsung WF1702WPU/YL and WF1804WPU/YL are equipped with a range of washing programs tailored to cater to various fabric types and soil levels. Users can choose from programs such as Cotton, Synthetic, Delicate, and Quick Wash, ensuring that each load receives the care it deserves. The Quick Wash cycle is particularly advantageous for those with busy schedules, as it effectively cleans lightly soiled clothes in just 15 minutes.

Another noteworthy characteristic of these models is their impressive capacity. The WF1804WPU/YL boasts an 8 kg capacity, making it suitable for larger families or households with frequent laundry needs. The WF1702WPU/YL, on the other hand, offers a slightly smaller capacity, ideal for smaller households or individuals. Both models provide ample space while maintaining a compact footprint, allowing for easy placement in various laundry areas.

Noise reduction technology is also a hallmark of these Samsung washing machines. With a quiet operation level, users can enjoy uninterrupted daily life, whether it’s during the day or night. This technology not only enhances user convenience but also ensures that the machine runs smoothly and efficiently over time.

Additionally, the Diamond Drum design included in these models minimizes fabric snagging and damage, ensuring that clothes come out looking pristine. This unique drum pattern is effective in protecting garments while providing optimal wash action.

In summary, the Samsung WF1702WPU/YL and WF1804WPU/YL washing machines stand out due to their EcoBubble technology, diverse washing programs, impressive capacities, quiet operation, and protective drum design.
