First start of the Samsung washing machine

It’s always exciting to get a new Samsung washing machine, but make sure you do the first start correctly before you begin doing laundry. This initial configuration increases the machine’s longevity and guarantees proper operation.

Samsung washing machines are renowned for their dependability and cutting-edge features, but before you start washing your first load of laundry, you should make some preparations. These actions are necessary for smooth operation and preventing future problems, and they range from removing transit bolts to conducting a test cycle.

We’ll walk you through the essential procedures in this post before and during your Samsung washing machine’s initial start-up. These simple instructions will help you get the most out of your new appliance right away, even if you’re not tech-savvy.

Is the machine ready to start?

Knowing how to operate the controls on a new washing machine should be the owner’s first task. Examine the instructions, examine how each image on the control panel is decoded, and determine which key is in charge of what. Making sure the unit is prepared for the initial wash is the next step. Examine the four points on the list to find out.

• Reliability of fasteners. As a rule, if the machine is installed by a professional, there are no problems with the fasteners. If the user does this independently, he may, for example, not tighten the clamps on the hoses tightly enough, which will lead to leaks during the first start-up.
• Transport bolts. These are fasteners whose purpose is to hold the tank in a stationary position during transportation so that the shock-absorbing system remains intact. Washing with transport bolts is a real test for the equipment, such a process leads to serious damage inside the unit, so before the first start-up it is necessary to replace the bolts with the plastic plugs included in the kit.
• Contents of the drum. Some removable elements can be placed inside the drum before transportation. Of course, they must be removed from there before the first wash.
• "Packaging". In the store, before transportation, they try to protect the CM to the highest standard, pasting it in some places with tape or adhesive tape, laying cotton wool or foam, even fixing it in some places with plastic ties. Before the test wash, all this will need to be eliminated.

Crucial! Regarding the transport bolts, there is no warranty repair for damage they cause.

You can begin the pre-wash if you have addressed every detail. Keep in mind that this cycle, which is sometimes referred to as a test, is not complete. We will provide you with more information about its purpose and method of operation.

Pre-start of the machine

Naturally, at first glance, turning on the machine for the first time is not difficult. You’re done when you plug in the power supply, turn on the water, load the laundry, and launch the app! However, there are several subtleties in the technical cycle.

It is a requirement for pre-start to wash in an empty drum. Two issues are simultaneously resolved by the "empty" cycle:

• washing away the remains of industrial grease from the insides of the washing machine and, as a result, eliminating the unpleasant industrial smell that comes from the grease;
• Checking the performance of the unit with minimal risks. How is water collected, how much noise it makes, are there increased vibrations and extraneous sounds, etc..

Since the industrial grease and its odor can be transferred to other items, it is not recommended to test wash laundry in a drum. This is because the grease is very greasy and deeply penetrates fabric fibers, making subsequent washing very challenging. But remember that even though there is no laundry involved in this cycle, detergent must be present! It will successfully rid the drum of odors and dirt.

Call a specialist from the service center to your home right away if you discover any issues during the test run, whether they are technical (leakage, breakdown, etc.) or "electronic stuffing" (error code, program failure, etc.) issues. The majority of Samsung washing machines have a one-year warranty.

It’s easy to get your Samsung washing machine started, but it’s important to make sure everything works properly right away. Before operating the machine, make sure all transit bolts are removed, the water and power connections are made correctly, and you perform an initial cycle to empty the drum and make sure everything is operating as it should. By doing these, you can make sure your washing machine is ready to handle regular loads of laundry without any problems. The main procedures to help you set up and prepare your Samsung washer for use are covered in this guide.

Studying the settings and starting the machine normally

During a test run, selecting a program is not crucial. Choosing the appropriate mode is crucial for achieving success when washing your laundry in its entirety. After all, things can get damaged if the temperature is set incorrectly or if the spin is too strong. Selecting a mode on a modern Samsung washing machine is a full task due to the models’ extensive functionality.

The maker of the machine always explains all of the modes that are accessible, along with their primary features and control panel symbols, in the user manual. Therefore, make sure you read the user manual and use the information there to determine which program you need.

When selecting a washing program, the color of the laundry and the fabric that it is made of are important considerations. The algorithm used to initiate the first wash generally looks something like this:

• plug the plug into a power outlet;
• open the water tap;
• sort the laundry and load the batch into the drum, while not forgetting about the permissible loading volumes. You cannot put more than the maximum volume into the drum, or less than the minimum;
• slam the hatch door;
• add detergent;
• set the program that suits you, and adjust the parameters if necessary (on Samsung washing machines, you can adjust the temperature, spin, cycle length in specified ranges);
• start the mode and wait for it to finish.

Samsung washing machines alert users to the end of the cycle with a sound signal, so you won’t forget when the wash is done. Don’t rush to remove the laundry from the drum right away, though. After the wash is finished, the locking mechanism keeps the door locked for an additional two to three minutes.

Where to pour powder and pour conditioner?

On the left side of the case is a powder drawer, sometimes known as a dispenser. This is the area where the detergent, conditioner, etc. is added or poured in. Pull it in the direction of yourself to get to the dispenser.

Take into account a few details to ensure proper detergent use:

• use only those detergents that are suitable for your type and color of laundry;
• take into account the type of detergent depending on the type of washing (for automatic machines, for semi-automatic machines, for hand washing);
• use a measuring cup for correct dosing;
• the dispenser has three compartments, each for a certain type of detergent. It is important to choose the right section. In Samsung washing machines, the left one is responsible for the main product, the central one is for conditioners, bleaches, rinses, the right one is for pre-soaking.

Kindly take note! Multi-component capsules, granules, tablets, or napkins are available in the home chemicals market as an alternative to detergent; however, they are more costly and go straight into the drum rather than the dispenser.

Starting your Samsung washing machine for the first time is crucial to ensuring trouble-free performance right away. You can increase the lifespan and general performance of the machine by following the proper setup procedures. Although not difficult, this step does call for close attention to detail.

Make sure the machine is level and stable before anything else. This stops needless noise and vibrations while in use. Making sure the hoses are connected correctly and looking for leaks helps guarantee the machine runs smoothly. Running a first test cycle without doing any laundry helps clear out any residues or dust from the manufacturing process after you have double-checked these connections.

After everything is set up, you can use your washing machine with assurance. Getting this first step right puts you at ease and lays the groundwork for future laundry days that are hassle-free.
