For Silvercare™ Washing, Using Steam Wash

washing a load of laundry FOR SILVERCARE™ WASHING An increased consumer demand for energy-saving products prompted Samsung to develop a system to use silver, widely known for its antimicrobial properties, as a sanitizing agent in your washing machine. Pure silver atoms have an electron stripped away by electrolysis during the wash and rinse cycles, which releases up to 16 million trillion silver ions that then penetrate deep into the fabric to sanitize clothing (according to U.S. EPA Test Guideline DIS/TSS-13). It does not need hot water or bleach. Here's how it works: A grapefruit-sized device alongside the tub uses two pure silver plates the size of large chewing gum sticks as electrodes in the water inlet system. The resulting positively charged silver atoms - Silver ions (Ag+) -- are sprayed into the tub during the wash and final rinse cycle. During tests, this process removed more than 99.9% of bacteria. Extra delicate blouses, shirts, or even lingerie that can't be washed in hot water can now be sanitized effectively without the adverse effects of hot water. The silver plates can easily be replaced by a Service Technician if needed. To use : 1. Load the washer. 2. Press the Power button. 3. Select a Cycle by turning the Cycle Selection dial. 4. Press the SilverCare™ button. 5. Add detergent in the dispenser tray for main washing, and add fabric softener up to the marked line. 6. Press the Start/Pause button. : The washer automatically selects optimal washing conditions by sensing the laundry's weight. FOR HOME USE ONLY- COMMERCIAL USERS SHOULD NOTIFY THEIR LOCAL WASTE TREATMENT AUTHORITIES BEFORE USE The total number of silver cycles run by the washer is displayed when pushing the Signal button and the SilverCare™ button simultaneously while the power is on. LU1 : less than 1000 cycles LU0 : 1000 cycles You should replace the SilverCare™ kit when the display reads "LU0" as the electrodes are near the end of their useful life. Contact 1-800-SAMSUNG. You cannot choose the SilverCare™ option with the Wool cycle. USING STEAM WASH The Steam Wash function injects steam directly into the laundry in the wash tub to increase the wash temperature and enhance the Soak effect, thus improving the wash performance. 1. Load the washer. 2. Press the Power button. 3. Turn the Cycle Selector and select a Steam Cycle. (The Deep Steam course automatically selects Steam.) 4. Press the Steam button. 5. Add detergent into the dispenser tray for a wash, and add fabric softener up to the marked line. 6. Press the Start/Pause button. : The washer automatically selects the optimal wash conditions by sensing the weight of the laundry. If steam wash is selected, steam is injected at the most effective time for the detected amount of laundry in order to maximize the effect of the steam. 18_ Washing a load of laundry WF448AAW-02535A-02_EN.indd 18 2008-05-06 ¿ÀÈÄ 2:23:23

Washing a load of laundry
FOR SILVERCARE™ WASHING
An increased consumer demand for energy-saving products prompted Samsung to develop a system to
use silver, widely known for its antimicrobial properties, as a sanitizing agent in your washing machine.
Pure silver atoms have an electron stripped away by electrolysis during the wash and rinse cycles, which
releases up to 16 million trillion silver ions that then penetrate deep into the fabric to sanitize clothing
(according to U.S. EPA Test Guideline DIS/TSS-13). It does not need hot water or bleach.
Here’s how it works: A grapefruit-sized device alongside the tub uses two pure silver plates the size of large
chewing gum sticks as electrodes in the water inlet system. The resulting positively charged silver atoms
- Silver ions (Ag+) -- are sprayed into the tub during the wash and final rinse cycle.
During tests, this process removed more than 99.9% of bacteria.
Extra delicate blouses, shirts, or even lingerie that can’t be washed in hot water can now be sanitized
effectively without the adverse effects of hot water. The silver plates can easily be replaced by a Service
Technician if needed.
To use :
1.
Load the washer.
2.
Press the Power button.
3.
Select a Cycle by turning the Cycle Selection dial.
4.

: The washer automatically selects optimal washing conditions by sensing the laundry’s weight.
FOR HOME USE ONLY– COMMERCIAL USERS SHOULD NOTIFY THEIR LOCAL WASTE
TREATMENT AUTHORITIES BEFORE USE
The total number of silver cycles run by the washer is displayed when pushing the Signal button and the
SilverCare™ button simultaneously while the power is on.
LU1 : less than 1000 cycles
LU0 : 1000 cycles
You should replace the SilverCare™ kit when the display reads “LU0” as the electrodes are near the end of
their useful life. Contact 1-800-SAMSUNG.
