Washing a load of laundry _21
Washing clothes using the cycle selector
Your new washing machine makes washing clothes easy, using Samsung’s “Fuzzy Control”
automatic control system. When you select a wash program, the machine will set the correct
temperature, washing time, and washing speed.
1. Turn on your sink’s water tap.
2. Press
the Power button.
3. Open the door.
4. Load the articles of clothing one at a time loosely into the drum, without overfilling it.
5. Close the door.
6. Add detergent, softener, and pre-wash detergent (if necessary) into the appropriate
compartments.
Pre-wash is only available when selecting the Normal, Heavy Duty, Perm Press, Stain Away,
Active Wear and Bedding PLUS cycles. It is only necessary if your clothing is heavily soiled.
7. Use the Cycle Selector to select the appropriate cycle according to the type of material:
Normal, Heavy Duty, Perm Press, Sanitize, Bedding PLUS, Deep Steam, Stain Away,
Active Wear, Delicates/Hand Wash, Wool, Quick Wash, Rinse+Spin, Spin Only. The relevant
indicators will illuminate on the control panel.
8. At this time, you can control the wash temperature, the number of rinse cycles, the spinning
speed, and the delay time by pressing the appropriate option button.
9. Press the Start/Pause button on the Cycle Selector and the wash will begin. The process
indicator will light up and the remaining time for the cycle will appear in the display.
Pause Option
1. When the “Garment+” light is ON, you can add or remove laundry items.
2. Press the Start/Pause button to unlock the door.
You cannot open the door when the water is too HOT or the water level is too HIGH.
3. After closing the door, press the Start/Pause button to restart the wash.
USING STEAM WASH
If you select steam, the steam acts at the most effective times for the detected amount of laundry,
maximizing the effect of the steam, increasing the wash temperature, enhancing the Soak effect, and
improving 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 to the dispenser tray 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.
Steam may not necessarily be visible during the steam cycles. Steam may not be present during the
entire steam wash cycle.
