How to choose a soundbar: weak points are well indicated by female vocals
This is the simplest type of external audio system (for example, JBL CINEMA SB200) - but, oddly enough, not always the cheapest. Such audio panels do not pretend to provide high-quality sound throughout the entire range and abundant functionality. Often they are simply active (that is, with a built-in amplifier) acoustics with an audible increase in frequency in the “speech” spectrum and are used when “everything is fine on the TV, but the sound is let down.”

Microwave ovens: myths drowned in microwaves
Looking once again at the orderly rows of microwave ovens, I caught myself thinking that for me the question “whether to want it or not” is not even a question. The firm belief that I didn’t need it came from nowhere, and the functions, buttons and displays didn’t even interest me. After some thought, it became clear that I had stereotypes that had developed over the years, a kind of myths, that created the rejection of such stoves...

Problems and repairs of Samsung Diamond
Not a single washing machine is immune from malfunctions, even very high-quality Samsung equipment.
When a breakdown occurs, codes are indicated on the screen, taking into account which you can determine the type of fault. This will help to quickly correct the cause of equipment failure.
Code E4 indicates that the weight of the loaded laundry is exceeded or that it is incorrectly distributed in the tank:
- If the volume of laundry exceeds, you just need to take out some of the things.
- If the distribution is incorrect, you need to open the lid and lay out the clothes. If the lid is already locked, you need to turn off the washing machine. After 2-3 minutes the door will open.
The most common errors are DE and DOOR. If this sign lights up after completion of work or in the middle of the cycle, there is no need to worry. The error will disappear on its own when the water in the drum cools down.
Also, the DE code may be displayed when the lid is not tightly closed. Naturally, the malfunction is easy to fix if it is not a failure of the hinges or a failure of the controller. Repair of the latest malfunction is carried out only by Samsung warranty service.
Difficulties with draining water are indicated by codes: CE, 5E. Possible breakdowns:
- pump impeller;
- electronic node;
- drain contamination;
- water fill detector.
Malfunctions are eliminated after checking the contacts between the nodes and replacing them or cleaning the drain.
Codes LE and E9 indicate hose problems. Probably the reason is the low level of its location. The fault can be removed by adjusting the hose. If the error appears constantly, this indicates a breakdown of the drain mechanism. In this case, you need to contact a Samsung repair shop.
If the heating element breaks down, the H1 sign appears. The washing machine can only be repaired by replacing the heating element. You shouldn't do this yourself.
Codes EE, E4 appear on washing machines with a drying option. Such a malfunction can only be repaired at a Samsung repair shop.
Errors where the “E” sign is present in the code indicate a breakdown of the electric drive:
- 3E1 - difficulty rotating the drum due to overload.
- 3E - tachometer break or motor winding short circuit.
- 3E3 - tachometer failure.
- 3E2 - contact with the tachogenerator is broken.
- FE - shaft failure on the engine.
- 8E - failure of the electric drive.
Actions to correct errors will depend on the complexity of the breakdown. As a rule, the washing machine is repaired at a Samsung warranty workshop.
Excess amount of water is indicated: OF, OE, E3. To correct the breakdown, you need to clean the pipe from possible contamination and check the water filling controller. In the latter case, installation of a new module is required.
Incorrect water filling is indicated by codes: 4E, E1. Main reasons:
- low pressure;
- lack of water in the central pipeline;
- malfunction of the pipe for water intake;
- hose malfunctions;
- no access to water.
If, due to low pressure in the pipeline or lack of water, there is not enough water in the tank, error 1E appears. The code may also appear if the water controller fails or there are problems with the hoses. All elements need to be replaced with new ones.
The UE sign indicates that the water filter is dirty. The error disappears after cleaning the filter or replacing it.
Codes 4E1 and 4E2 appear on the screen when setting the washing functions if the required temperature exceeds the possible permissible one. In this case, you need to select a lower temperature, and the error will disappear on its own. This code may also indicate a high temperature during the drying process or a malfunction of the hoses.
During weak contact in the control sensor, strong heating or short circuit, errors AE and BE appear.
A power failure is indicated by the UC sign. In this case, you can try restarting the washing machine.
Attention: In case of regular power failures, it is best to install a voltage stabilizer. This will help extend the operating time of the machine. More complete information can be found in the manual for using each specific model of the Diamond washing machine.
Following simple rules, taking into account the instructions for use, will prevent many malfunctions

precautionary measures
EXPLOSIVE GAS. If your hot water system has not been used for
two weeks or more, open all hot water taps in your home and allow the water to drain for a few minutes before using the washing machine. This will allow all the hydrogen produced to escape. During this time, you should not smoke or light an open fire, as hydrogen is flammable. If there is a gas leak, ventilate the room immediately without touching the power plug.
Do not climb on or place things on the machine (such as laundry, lighted candles, unextinguished cigarettes, dishes, chemicals, metal objects, etc.). — This may result in electric shock, fire, machine failure, or personal injury.
Do not spray volatile substances such as insecticides on the surface of the machine. - In addition to being harmful to people, they can also cause stroke
electric shock, fire or machine breakdown.
Do not place devices that create electromagnetic fields near the washing machine. — This may result in injury due to machine malfunction.
Since the water discharged during the wash and dry cycle is high in temperature, do not allow it to come into contact with this water. — This may cause burns or injury.
Do not wash, spin or dry waterproof seat covers, mats or clothing (*) unless your machine has a special program for these items. — Do not wash thick, hard mats. — Doing so may cause injury or damage the washing machine, walls, floor, or
clothing due to excessive vibration.
* Wool bedding, rain covers, fishing vests,
ski pants, sleeping bags, baby diapers, sports jerseys, as well as awnings for covering bicycles, motorcycles, cars, etc.
Do not operate the machine if the detergent box is not in place. — This may result in electric shock or injury due to water leakage.
Do not touch the inside of the tank during or immediately after drying as it is hot. - This may cause burns.
Do not put your hand in the detergent box after you open it. — This may cause injury as your hand may be caught
data input device for detergents. Do not put any items (such as shoes, leftover food, pets) into the washing machine other than those that are to be washed.
— Due to strong vibration, this may cause damage to the washing machine or
injury and death of pets.
Do not press the buttons with sharp objects such as hairpins, knives, nails, etc. - This may result in electric shock or injury.
Do not wash laundry contaminated with oils, creams or lotions, which are commonly sold in specialty skin care stores or massage clinics.

Pros and cons compared to competitors
The production of parts and assembly of household appliances in every large company is put on stream and occurs according to the same type of algorithm. Therefore, all models of Samsung washing machines have common differences from analogues of competing companies.
Positive aspects of washing machines
Samsung Group has its own facilities for the production of high-tech components. Therefore, the quality of the electronic components of their household appliances is at a high level.
Such common problems of control boards as aging of capacitors or undercutting of conductors and breaking of current-carrying circuits occur much less frequently than with competitors.
Extensive experience in the production of video devices, laptops, printers and mobile phones allowed us to create an intuitive interface for washing machines.
Despite the abundance of programs, additional modes and technological solutions, understanding the functionality of the device is quite easy.
The control panels of Samsung washing machines are quite informative and intuitive, regardless of the class and cost of the machine.
Control via the touch screen occurs with a light touch of your fingers. And to start the washing process, you need to press the button with emphasis for 2-3 seconds. This simplest solution prevents accidental startup of the machine when the program is not fully configured.
The maximum spin speed of the drum for narrow machines is 1000-1200 rpm, and for full-size machines – 1400-1600. This allows you to effectively remove moisture from washed items.
If it is necessary to wash clothes made from easily damaged fabrics, the speed can be reduced by the user to 400 rpm or this step can be canceled altogether.
Samsung appliances have a fairly large tank volume, especially in full-size models: the maximum weight of dry laundry that can be placed for washing is 12 kg. Convenient loading and unloading is ensured by the large door diameter
Earlier models had a strong vibration effect. However, with the introduction of Can Balance and VRT+ technologies, Samsung devices began to show almost exemplary stability even when operating at maximum speed in spin mode.
Negative points and shortcomings
One of the main complaints about Samsung machines is the increased noise level, especially during the spin phase.
The talk about the “ultra-quiet motor” remains a marketing ploy, since the main hum comes from the drum. However, it should be noted that this sound is uniform.
If there are small children in the house, it does not interfere with their sleep. A more significant problem may be sound signals about the end of work cycles, which, however, can be turned off.
The technical manual indicates the sound power level in decibels that the washing machine emits when operating in different modes. You need to trust these values, and not the noiselessness claims on advertising brochures
Quite often there is a problem associated with bin leaks and damage to the drainage system. Repairing this fault is quite difficult unless the cause is a small object (for example, a button) getting into the drain system or pipe.
In general, Samsung units are quite easy to repair in case of problems - almost all washing machines display error codes on the display, which can then be used to determine the malfunction.
