FAQs
What is Ecobubble technology?
Ecobubble technology mixes air, water, and detergent to create bubbles that penetrate fabrics faster than liquid detergent. This allows effective cleaning at cooler temperatures, saving energy and being gentler on clothes.
How does the SmartThings AI Energy Mode save energy?
AI Energy Mode monitors your energy consumption and can optimize wash cycles by using Ecobubble to wash with cool water instead of warm, often combined with extra cycle time. This can reduce energy use by up to 70% on specific cycles, helping to lower your electricity bill.
What's the difference between Super Speed and 15 Minute Quick Wash?
The 15 Minute Quick Wash is for very small, lightly soiled loads needing a quick freshen up. The Super Speed Cycle is designed for larger, daily loads (up to 5kg) that are moderately soiled, completing a full wash in just 39 minutes with thorough cleaning.
Can I wash and dry a full 9kg load at once?
You can wash a full 9kg load, but the drying capacity is 6kg. If you wash a 9kg load, you will need to remove some items before starting the drying cycle or dry the load in two smaller batches to ensure effective drying.
How do I clean the StayClean Drawer?
The StayClean Drawer has a specially designed water rinsing system to automatically flush away detergent residue. For optimal performance, you can periodically remove and rinse the drawer under running water to clear any stubborn build-up.
What are the dimensions of this washer dryer?
The dimensions are H:850mm x W:600mm x D:600mm (Height x Width x Depth), making it suitable for standard appliance spaces.
Is this model noisy during operation?
This model has a noise rating of 72dB during the spin cycle. While some noise is expected, ensuring the machine is level and not overloaded can help minimize operational sounds.
Troubleshooting
Washer dryer won't turn on or start a cycle.
Check if the power cord is securely plugged into a working outlet. Ensure the door is fully closed and latched. Verify that the child lock is not activated. Confirm the water supply taps are open.
Clothes are not drying properly or taking too long.
Ensure the lint filter is clean. Do not overload the dryer beyond its 6kg capacity. Select an appropriate drying cycle for the fabric type. Check that the water inlet tap is open, as some condensation dryers use water for cooling.
Machine is vibrating excessively or making loud noises.
Check if the transit bolts have been fully removed during installation. Ensure the machine is level on the floor by adjusting the leveling feet. Distribute the laundry evenly inside the drum to prevent unbalanced loads. Remove any foreign objects from the drum or pump filter.
Detergent residue remains in the dispenser drawer.
While the StayClean Drawer is designed to flush residue, ensure water pressure is adequate. Clean the dispenser drawer manually if build-up persists. Use the recommended amount of detergent; too much can lead to residue. Ensure the detergent drawer is fully inserted.
Odors coming from the machine.
Run an 'Eco Drum Clean' cycle to remove bacteria and detergent residue from the drum. Leave the door ajar after use to allow the drum to air out. Regularly clean the door seal to prevent mold growth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Unpacking: Carefully remove all packaging materials and transit bolts from the rear of the appliance. Keep the bolts in case you need to move the machine later.
Positioning: Place the washer dryer on a firm, level surface. Adjust the leveling feet to ensure the machine is stable and does not wobble. This is crucial for quiet operation and preventing excessive vibration.
Water Connection: Connect the water inlet hoses (cold water) to the appropriate taps and the machine's inlets. Ensure all connections are tight to prevent leaks.
Drainage: Securely attach the drain hose to a standpipe or laundry sink, ensuring it's not kinked and is at the correct height.
Power: Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet. Do not use extension cords.
Compatibility
SmartThings App: To utilize the SmartThings AI Energy Mode and other smart features, you will need to download the Samsung SmartThings app on your smartphone or tablet. The appliance connects to your home's Wi-Fi network. Ensure your Wi-Fi signal is strong in the laundry area.
Water Pressure: Ensure your home's water pressure falls within the recommended range for optimal performance.
Care
StayClean Drawer: The StayClean Drawer automatically flushes away detergent residue. However, occasional manual inspection and cleaning (e.g., once a month) is recommended to ensure no stubborn build-up.
Drum Cleaning: Run a 'Drum Clean' or 'Eco Drum Clean' cycle periodically (e.g., every 40 washes) to remove detergent residue and bacteria from inside the drum. Follow the instructions in your user manual.
Lint Filter (Dryer Function): For the dryer function, regularly clean the lint filter after every drying cycle. A clogged lint filter reduces drying efficiency and can pose a fire hazard. The filter is typically located around the door opening.
Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the machine with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.
Door Seal: Regularly wipe the rubber door seal to remove any trapped debris, moisture, or mold build-up.
