Important rules and practical tips for connecting Samsung washing machines

A new Samsung washing machine can be connected by a qualified specialist or independently.

In the latter case, you need to know all the features and comply with the requirements for connecting to communications, as well as have the necessary tool for these purposes.

We will tell you how to install, connect and configure a Samsung washing machine in this article.

Choosing a location: what to consider?

Even at the time of purchasing a Samsung automatic washing machine, you need to decide on the place where it will be installed.

Optimal options:

• kitchen;
• bathroom;
• utility rooms, if any.

When choosing a location, you should consider the following points:

1. 
   According to its dimensions (height, width, depth), the machine must fit in the space allocated for it.

2. Proximity of water supply and sewerage systems.
3. Convenient outlet location. The use of extensions and tees is not recommended.
4. The floor covering must be hard and smooth. The best option is a concrete floor.
5. If the floor is smooth and slippery, you may need a shock-absorbing rubber mat.
6. There must be good ventilation in the designated area, since constant high air humidity is an extremely undesirable phenomenon, which can ultimately lead to equipment breakdowns.
7. There should be no proximity to heating equipment or stoves, as this may cause the device to overheat.
8. There should be convenient access to the washing machine and the ability to open the door freely.
9. At any time of the year, the room temperature should not fall below zero.
10. The power cable must not pass under the bottom of the washing machine.
11. There should be no carpet on the floor under the feet of the device, which may prevent leaks from being detected in time.
12. The minimum gap between the case and adjacent objects should be: at least 5 cm on the back wall and at least 25 mm on the sides.
13. Protection from direct sunlight must be provided.

When choosing a machine, it is necessary to take into account the overall design of the room with which the machine should be in harmony.

Preparing for installation

When receiving a new washing machine, first of all, you need to remove the packaging and inspect the case for defects, and also check that the device is complete.

For self-installation, taking into account prepared communications, you will need:

• level determination tool;
• wrench for removing transportation bolts;
• plumbing tools for installing water supply and drainage systems;
• fum tape as a seal;
• sealant.

Transportation bolts are designed to secure the device tank during movement. They are located on the back wall. Depending on the model, there may be a different number of them, which can be clarified in the documents for the washing machine.

How to remove shipping bolts? Remove them completely, helping yourself with a wrench.

After removing the transport bolts, you must:

1. Close the resulting holes on the body with plastic plugs, which are provided by the manufacturer and are included in the kit.
2. Save the bolts for possible future transportation.

Before removing the transport bolts, the automatic machine cannot be started, as this may lead to equipment failure.

It is advisable to immediately install all communications and connections in the place where the washing machine will be permanently located. If necessary, place a mat on the floor against shock absorption. Using level determination, the machine is installed.

, which, scrolling along the thread, can become higher or lower, will help to correct its location When the height adjustment is completed, the locknuts must be tightened. This is done with a wrench. This fixation is necessary to prevent loosening during operation due to vibration.

Even before starting work, you need to make sure that the washing machine is positioned correctly. To do this, you need to try to shake it slightly with your hand.

How to connect to water supply?

The washing machine comes with a hose for connecting to the water supply. It must be connected at one end to the washing machine itself, and the other end to the cold water intake point. The water pressure in the pipe should be in the range from 0.5 atmospheres to 8 atmospheres .

To connect the hose to the washing machine, attach the end with the filter to the body, tightening the nut well.

Connection to a water source can be organized in any convenient place. Most often it is organized by inserting it into a water pipe. This is the preferred option.

To do this, cut the pipe and insert a special metal tee - with an outlet to the washing machine. A valve should also be installed here to shut off the water supply to the machine.

If you have special knowledge and tools, you can do this yourself, or by contacting a plumber. But it is possible to organize a tie-in from the point of water supply to the toilet, in the area of ​​the mixer, etc.

When planning the insertion location, it is recommended to make it in an accessible place that allows you to shut off the water supply after the end of the wash cycle.

How to carry out smart diagnostics

To understand how to make smart diagnostics, you need to understand its operating principle. Operation is ensured using a special program built into the LG machine. You will need a phone number for feedback.

It receives signals from the washing machine thanks to the built-in NFC antenna. Then they are received through a microphone or a special program.

In the first case, the information is processed by the service center operator, and in the second, by the smart diagnostic program itself, downloaded into the smartphone.

Using the Smart Diagnostics feature is quite simple. All you need is a phone. There are two ways to use the smart diagnostics feature:

• Method 1 – intended for users with regular phones;
• Method 2 – suitable for smartphone owners.

In the first case, the Smart Diagnostics function is used as follows:

1. Connect your LG machine to the network.
2. Dial the LG service center number (you can see it on the warranty card).
3. Perform actions in accordance with the operator’s prompts (you will need to press the indicated buttons one by one).
4. Place the phone side with the microphone on the SmartDiagnosis inscription.
5. The operator processes the sounds made by the LG washing machine and voices the problem or sends information to the technician.

For smartphone owners, the procedure will be completely different. To use the smart diagnostics option, you must:

• Connect your LG machine to the network.
• Connect your smartphone to Wi-Fi during diagnostics.
• Download a special program called LG Laundry&DW to your phone.
• Enter the model of your LG washing machine.
• To read the information, bring the smartphone and turn the display towards the washing machine.
• Perform actions following all points.
• The LG washing machine is analyzed within a minute.
• The user receives recommendations regarding how to resolve his problem.
• If the LG washing machine is under warranty, the service center will send a specialist.

LG Laundry&DW is available on Google Play. Suitable for all modern OS. To install, you must select the official application. The menu on the phone will be in Russian, and the test result will be in English.

The smart diagnostic program itself deciphers the error code and provides possible ways to eliminate it.

Note! Before checking using smart diagnostics, you must read the operating instructions for the washing machine. This will help you quickly navigate when finding a fault.

Organization of drainage into the sewer system

Draining from a washing machine can be organized in two ways:

1. Temporary - in the bathtub, sink or toilet.
2. Stationary - into the sewer.

The stationary option involves inserting into the sewer system. Most often it is made into a siphon, which has a special branch for the washing machine.

If the hose is inserted directly into a sewer pipe, then this must be done very carefully so that it does not touch the wastewater.

The hose insertion point must be secure to prevent leaks and wastewater from entering the hose. For these purposes, sealant and sealant are used. The bend point of the hose from the floor should be at least 0.5 m away.

What is smart diagnostics of a washing machine?

Smart diagnosis (translated as “smart diagnostics”) is a unique program for remotely determining problems in the functioning of a washing machine using a smartphone.

The Smart diagnosis system helps you independently identify problems that reduce the quality of operation of a household appliance. If there is no mobile connection, the service center operator will help you decipher the signals.

If necessary (it is not possible to fix the malfunction on your own), the request for qualified assistance is duplicated by the operator to the service center master.

In total, Smart diagnosis identifies more than eighty disorders (to be as precise as possible, eighty-five).

The principle of operation of the smart diagnostic system is simple: a special program is built into the washing machine, which scans the operation of all elements of the internal structure of household appliances and, if problems are detected, provides information in the form of sound signals into the microphone of a mobile phone.

The signals are deciphered by the operator of the service center or information prompts on the smartphone display.

Since signal reception can be affected by various external stimuli (noise, vibration, poor Internet signal), smart diagnostics do not guarantee 100% accuracy of the results of the study.

Is it available on all models?

Not every LG washing machine has the Smart diagnosis function. As a rule, the latest premium segment models are equipped with a smart diagnostic system, for example:

• LG FH-​0B8WD7,
• LG F-​10B8ND,
• LG F-​2J5NN4W.

The special Smart diagnosis icon on the washing machine body indicates that the device is equipped with a remote fault detection system.

How to connect?

A special LG Laundry&DW application will help you connect an LG washing machine with a wireless communication module to your smartphone. You can download it on the Internet, Play Market (for smartphones with Android software) or App Store (for smartphones with IOS software).

It’s simple: on the right side of the control panel of the LG washing machine you can see a smartphone icon and the inscription “TAG ON”. By touching your smartphone to this icon, the washing machine itself will offer to install the LG Laundry&DW application. After downloading, the model and code of household appliances are entered into the program.

The program interface is completely Russified, but the results of the scan will be transmitted by notifications in English. To check the quality of the connection, it is necessary to ensure simultaneous access to both the washing machine and the telephone.

First start

When the washing machine is connected to all communications, you need to make sure that the installation was carried out correctly. The first start of the washing machine is carried out without placing laundry in the drum .

Detergent (a small amount) is poured into a special compartment. For these purposes, it is advisable to choose a special preparation for the first wash. A good option is Helfer Start HLR0054 - against industrial contamination and for disinfection.

A program with a long cycle and water heating is selected on the control panel. The start button is pressed.

When starting the machine for the first time, you need to monitor its operation, paying attention to the following points:

• no water leaks;
• heating water;
• filling the tank with water;
• quality of drum rotation;
• drain work;
• machine behavior during spinning.

If leaks, grinding sounds uncharacteristic of normal operation, and other defects are detected, the machine must be stopped.

If the machine itself displays an error code on the display, its decoding should be clarified in the documentation for the device. There may be an incorrect connection or other user error. Read more about error codes here.

The first test run allows you to analyze the connection quality and operation of the washing machine components, and also makes it possible to eliminate dirt, lubricant residues, and the specific smell of new equipment from the drum.

User Hints

In some cases, the problem can be solved on your own. Some of them are not breakdowns at all. Therefore, the smart diagnostics function will save time and money spent on consulting an independent specialist.

So, problems that you can solve yourself include:

1. The door of the LG washing machine is poorly closed or locked;
2. the water supply valve is closed;
3. lack of water level in the drum of the LG washing machine;
4. too much weight of laundry loaded into the drum;
5. The drain filter of the LG washing machine is clogged;
6. the water hose is twisted;
7. insufficient voltage in the network;
8. problems with draining water due to blockages;
9. spin function is disabled;
10. the sewer is clogged;
11. the drain pipe, hose, siphon are clogged;
12. poor water pressure due to which water is underfilled;
13. sudden shutdown of water;
14. incorrect connection or improper installation of the washing machine;
15. The water takes a long time to heat up due to scale on the heating element - this can be eliminated using special means.

Possible difficulties and solutions

In the process of connecting the washing machine, the user may encounter unexpected difficulties , the following tips will help to cope with them:

1. If it is not possible to organize a connection to the sewer immediately after purchasing a washing machine, you can temporarily use the option of draining into a bathtub or sink, and then organize a permanent connection.
2. In the absence of a centralized water supply, the washing machine can be supplied with water using a water tank raised by at least 100 cm. In this case, the hose must be attached to the bottom of this tank and ensure that the container always remains filled. This situation may be relevant for dachas. The cardinal solution is to install a water pump.
3. If, even at the stage of unpacking the new machine, housing defects or insufficient equipment were noticed, it is necessary to demand replacement of the defective equipment.
4. If, upon first start-up, defects in the automatic machine were identified, you must contact a service center that supports Samsung equipment under warranty.
5. Installing a built-in washing machine poses a special difficulty. If you have no experience in carrying out such work, it is better to entrust the connection of equipment to professionals.

Recommendations

To successfully connect a Samsung washing machine, it is recommended to use the following tips:

1. When planning to purchase a washing machine, you need to take care of the future connection to communications in advance. It may be necessary to replace the siphon with a special one that has a drain outlet (fitting), and organize a tie-in into the water pipe for output to the washing machine.
2. If the floor is uneven, it should be leveled if possible before bringing in a new car.
3. The valve that shuts off the water supply to the washing machine must be closed after finishing the wash, and opened only before starting.
4. To insert washing machine hoses into the sewer and water supply, you must use only high-quality parts, as they are designed for many years of use.

If you are not confident in your own abilities to properly connect the washing machine, it is recommended that you contact a specialist.

Possible problems

As mentioned earlier, small problems such as an unclosed door or excessive load in the drum will be shown on the display.

But before starting any repair work, the washing machine must be de-energized and disconnected from the water supply. Let's look at common faults.

The machine does not turn on

This is the most common error that occurs during operation of any unit (not only from this manufacturer). The reason may be not only wear or breakage of parts, but also some other cases. The most frequently encountered ones may be the following:

1. Lack of electrical energy.
2. The on/off button is broken.
3. Failure associated with the interference filter.
4. Problems with the electrical control module.
5. The drum is not closed or blocked.

The drum has stopped rotating

If the drum refuses to rotate, it is necessary to comprehensively consider all existing reasons. The problem may be a breakdown of both the power unit and any other parts and components.

The power unit does not work or has stalled:

• The control unit is broken.
• Power unit failure.
• Problems associated with heating elements.

The power unit makes sounds, but the drum does not move:

1. A foreign object interferes with movement.
2. Electric motor failure.
3. The brushes of the power unit have become unusable.
4. The drum bearings refused to work.
5. Damage to the control unit.

The power unit rotates, but the drum does not:

• The pulley came loose.
• A foreign object interferes with movement.
• Problems with the drive belt.

The drum does not rotate in both directions. There is only one reason, it lies in the control units of washing units.

It is he who leads the change in direction. Among other things, some models are equipped with special rotation side control boards, which also tend to break. Be that as it may, only a specialist can solve this problem.

The drum is rotating faster or slower than required. Naturally, this issue must be considered solely in the context of washing clothes, and not the spin mode, when the drum can change the rotation speed.

1. The drive belt may have become loose.
2. The brushes of the power unit have become unusable.
3. The winding of the power unit has become unusable.
4. Tachometer malfunction.
5. Problem with the control unit.

The washing machine does not spin clothes

• The spin function is disabled.
• Imbalance or overload of the washing machine.
• The belt is worn out.
• Problems with the power unit.
• The water stopped draining.
• Damage to the control unit.

The water does not drain or it goes away on its own

Problems with draining water may be due to the following reasons:

1. The filter is clogged.
2. The water drain pipe, siphon, hose or sewer is clogged.
3. The pump has become unusable.
4. Damage to the electronic module.

If the water drains on its own, the problem often lies in an incorrect connection to the sewer pipe. In this case, you need to pay attention to the height of the drain hose connection. It should be at least half a meter from the floor.

Among other things, there is a special valve called “Anti-Drain” that can help cope with this problem.

Underfilling or overfilling of water

• Problem with the pressure switch.
• The valve that supplies water is broken.
• The filter mesh in the valve needs to be cleaned.
• Poor water pressure.
• Electronic module problem.

Machine vibration and noise

Mobile diagnostics can also identify another very common problem, when the machine literally jumps all over the apartment. You can often encounter a strong hum from the device during the spin process. The problem may be:

1. Improper installation of the machine.
2. Imbalance.
3. The shipping parts have not been unscrewed.
4. The bearings have become unusable.
5. The counterweight was weakened.
6. Shock absorbers or springs have become unusable.
7. The drive belt is stretched.
8. The fastenings of the housing or parts must be tightened.

The hatch can't be opened

Every modern washing machine has an automatic hatch locking function, which automatically turns on before the wash starts and turns off some time after the end.

Even if the machine is de-energized after finishing the wash, you must wait for some time. The machine hatch may be blocked if there is water in the drum.

Machine leaking

There is no longer even a diagnostic process, but personal observations that may suggest a leak. In this case, there can only be 2 options for the development of events: a leak in one of the nodes or an excessive accumulation of water, due to which it begins to pour out over the edges.

Often, the tightness is broken most often due to the following reasons:

• Violation of the integrity of the tank.
• Problems with connecting pipes.
• The drain pump volute was damaged.

Water does not heat up

If the water stops heating, then most likely the culprit is either a problem with the temperature sensor or a breakdown of the heating element. If the water heats up, but for a very long time, then the problem must be looked for in scale on the heating element.

The heater is very easy to remove and clean yourself using improvised means, such as citric acid or special household chemicals.

This is how Smart Diagnosis works. Now you can be aware of all the problems of your washing machine and know how to solve them.
