Using your washing machine
With your new Samsung washing machine, the hardest part of doing laundry will be deciding which load to wash
first.
Detergent and Additives Information
Using the proper detergent
The type of detergent you should use is based on the type of fabric (cotton, synthetic, delicate items, wool),
colour, wash temperature, and degree of soiling. Always use "low suds" laundry detergent, which is designed for
automatic washing machines.
Follow the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations based on the weight of the laundry, the degree of soiling,
and the hardness of the water in your area. If you do not know how hard your water is, enquire at your local water
authority.
Do not use detergent that has hardened or solidified as the detergent may remain in the rinse cycle. It may
cause your washing machine to not rinse properly or result in the overflow becoming blocked.
Using the detergent drawer
Your washing machine has separate compartments for dispensing detergent and fabric softener.
Add all laundry additives to the correct compartments before starting your washing machine.
CAUTION: Do not open the detergent drawer while the washing machine is running. You might be
exposed to hot water or steam.
When Delay End is selected, do not apply detergent directly into the drum. Otherwise, this may discolour
the laundry. Use the detergent drawer when Delay End is selected.
When washing large items, do not use the following types of detergent.
• Tablet and capsule type detergent
• Detergent using a ball and net
Prewash detergent compartment: Detergent for prewash, or
starch.
Main wash detergent compartment: Detergent for the main
wash, water softener, pre-soaking agent, bleach and stain remover.
Softener compartment: Fabric softener (fill no higher than the
MAX line).
The actual appearance of the softener guide may differ with the
model.
