How Samsung Washers Are Built
Samsung washers require HE detergent, and the company warns that regular, organic or natural detergents can damage the machine. Source: Samsung US Support - Detergent usage
Samsung top loaders are leveled by checking that the pulsator sits centered under a shallow fill of water, while front loaders are leveled by rocking the cabinet and adjusting the feet. Source: Samsung US Support - Washer installation and calibration
What Samsung Says to Check First
- Washer odor. Samsung says a sewage smell can mean the drain hose is pushed too far into the drain, while a mildew smell calls for an empty spin to clear standing water before cleaning the washer. Source: Samsung US Support - Samsung washing machine or laundry smells bad
- Washer won't start. Samsung says to confirm the washer is plugged into a grounded outlet on its own dedicated circuit without a surge protector, check the cord and look for a tripped breaker. Source: Samsung US Support - Samsung washer power issues
What Samsung Washer Codes Mean
