How to use a Samsung washing machine correctly
How much powder to pour?
Detergent for the main wash cycle is added to the section of the tray marked II. This compartment can be designated as 2 or B.
Powder tablets or gel capsules are placed directly into the laundry drum. Some detergents are sold with a special dispenser cap, which is also placed in the drum.

Ask a Question
Do not use hand washing powders in a washing machine. They create a lot of foam, which can damage the equipment.
For the correct dosage, read the information from the manufacturer on the powder packaging, taking into account the volume of laundry and the degree of soiling. Experts recommend pouring 150 g of detergent per 1 kg of clothes. If the laundry is very dirty, increase the portion to 225 g.
Pour the powder into the tray
Sorting clothes
To avoid unpleasant consequences, before washing, take the time to sort your items, taking them into account:
- degree of contamination;
- coloring;
- fabric properties.
Before washing in the machine, wash any existing stains; pre-soak items that are too dirty for 15-30 minutes. Wash wardrobe items made from delicate fabrics that require special care separately from other laundry.
Remember to check your pockets to ensure that small items do not interfere with the operation of the device. Turning things inside out will help maintain their appearance longer.
To save time, place dirty laundry in several containers so you can sort them by color and fabric type at once. In hardware stores you can find large baskets with several sections.
Do you store laundry in the washing machine?
Oh yes! No.
How to turn on the washing machine
Before turning on your Samsung automatic washing machine for the first time, make sure:
- stability of the device on a flat floor surface;
- correct connection to the water supply and drain;
- connecting to the mains directly without extension cords.
After this, place the sorted laundry in the drum and fill the tray with a suitable detergent. Then turn on the machine with the power button and select the washing mode. If you think it necessary, change the program settings: adjust the water temperature and spin speed.

You can also control modern Samsung models using a mobile application. By installing Smart Washer on your smartphone, you can remotely select a mode and start the washing process.
This control method can be used in those SMA models in which the designers provide for connection to WLAN networks. In case of problems, the user receives a message with an error code and tips for solving the problem.
Washing modes
Samsung washing machines supplied to the Russian market have a Russian-language control panel. The main technology programs include:
- "Cotton";
- "Synthetics";
- "Kids' things";
- "Wool";
- "Fast"
- "Intense."
The Eco Bubble mode allows you to effectively clean things without harming the fabric at low water temperatures. A special generator mixes detergent with water and air bubbles, which literally push dirt out of the structure of the material.
Are you unplugging your washing machine?
Oh yes! No
Among the additional functions of Samsung washing machines it is worth noting:
- delayed start;
- drum self-cleaning;
- child locking of the panel.

Some models have a Smart Control option, which allows you to control the washing process via a smartphone.
Shall we start with bed linen?
The trial work is now over. You opened the door, looked at the shiny, slightly damp things... Is it really time?
Disassemble the laundry basket according to its parameters:
- White and colored. Even in the most modern machines, it is not recommended to wash white with color.
- Check pockets for dirty clothes before loading. Checking them after work can really spoil the overall impression of the result.
- Have you already studied the modes? Sort through things according to them: wool, synthetics, delicate clothes, children's blouses, cotton, and perhaps even your favorite sneakers. Yes, some modern devices have a special “shoes” program!
As the first serious task, it is recommended to choose bed linen. Don't load it too much. By the way, do you want to know how to determine the optimal volume of one load? Then read on!
Turn it on, pour the selected product into a special compartment (or directly into the drum, if it’s a capsule), load the laundry, set the program and press “start”! Congratulations! The first wash in the washing machine has begun!
While the work is happening, listen again: are there any sounds that seem unnecessary? Everything should work perfectly the first time!
How to turn on sound
Most of the Samsung AMS have the option of sound notification about the end of the work process. In some cases, a loud melody can disturb the peace of the family. You can deactivate the option by clicking the “Mute sound” button, if it is provided in this model.
If there is no such key, solve the problem as follows:
- Find the “Spin” and “Option” buttons on the panel.
- Press them at the same time.
- Hold until the display shows an icon with a crossed out speaker.
- Then release the buttons.
If necessary, the sound warning system is activated again by similar actions. Information about the functionality of the washing machine and the ability to turn off and turn on various options is contained in the user manual.
If you cannot remove the melody using the buttons, contact customer service. A qualified technician will remove the dashboard and seal the speaker, this will reduce the volume of sounds from the device.
Adviсe
General advice for all owners would be:
- Carefully read the documentation from the manufacturer. It contains a lot of useful information and lists all the individual features of the purchased equipment.
- Do not attempt to repair. In case of a malfunction, it is better to save your time and nerves and contact a service center.
- Do not wash items by first starting the washing machine.
- Do not ignore extraneous sounds or messages from the washing machine.
A washing machine is not only an assistant that can make life easier for many years. It needs proper care and proper installation. Rattling and “jumping” should not go unnoticed by the owner.
Expert recommendations
Proper care will extend the life of the equipment, so after finishing washing:
- Wipe the door and its seal dry.
- Temporarily leave the hatch open and the powder container pulled out to dry the surfaces.
- Disconnect the device from the power supply, as voltage surges can cause malfunctions.
It is also necessary to regularly clean the inlet filter in the water drainage compartment. If the machine jumps during the spin cycle, place a rubber mat under it to stabilize it and reduce vibration.

It is worth noting that experts do not recommend abusing high temperatures. The more often they are used, the faster the electric heater, control module and wiring fail.
