2-4. WM1245A Features
This washing machine performs the washing and dehydration functions by rotating its drum around a
10 inclined axis of rotation to the horizontal axis.

1. Washing
The washing technique employed is to let the clothing fall from the top of the drum cycle.
2. Dehydration
The dehydration technique employed squeezes the water out using centrifugal force which pushes
the clothing out towards the wall of the drum through the high speed rotation of the drum.
(Max 1200 RPM)

Automatic power cut function (If a user doesn't press the START button within 10min of the
power being switched on, power is automatically cut off.)
A self-examining function of any problems.
The addition of clothing for different cycles is possible (the initial stage of the water supply,
the tub-temp low) after the begining of the wash.
A noise-minimizing design for dehydration by employing a low-noise motor, a low-noise pump
and an oil damper.
A Child Lock function (Safety Apparatus for protecting children)

-8- Samsung Electronics


The maximum rpm (600, 800, 1000, 1200rpm) for the main dehydration cycle is determined bythe
result of the Unbalance Sensing. And if the result of the Unbalance Sensing goes beyond the set
value, it performs a re-operation.
The restart of the operation begins from the clothes-untwisting cycle after pausing the Unbalance
Sensing.
For wash and rinse cycles (Unbalance Sensing)
If an Unbalance is sensed at a low speed, it performs the Unbalance Sensing a max. of 10 times.
And if sensed at a high speed, it does a max. of 5 times. If Unbalance is over the set value
thereafter, it performs the next cycle without performing dehydration.
For the final dehydration cycle (Unbalance Sensing)
If Unbalance is sensed at a low speed, it performs Unbalance Sensing a max. of 10 times. And if
sensed at a high speed, it does a max. of 5 times. If Unbalance is over the set value thereafter,
the water is supplied during the dehydration cycle to perform the cloth-untwisting cycle a max. of 3
times. However, in a case where 'Unbalances' exceed 3 times, an UE Error is displayed. If there
are no 'Unbalances' during the dehydration cycle, it directly performs dehydration regardless of the
intermediate stages such as dehydration during washing/rinse and final dehydration.

Reference 2. Liquid Balance
- Principle of Liquid Balance
The previous drum-type washing machines used to control 'Unbalances' on the principle of
weight so that the weight of the product was quite heavy, whereas this product decreases the
weight by employing a liquid balance..

. If the Start/Pause button is pressed during the operation of a cycle, it stops that cycle. One
more press of the button will re-start that cycle. (In this manner: StopStartStop)
. During the pause the remaining time does not decrease and every steering part (Motor, Valve,
Heater, ect.) stays in the OFF condition.
. The LED display of each course and the cycle stays On at the time of selection, while it
refreshes every 0.7 second while operating. The LED of a finished cycle turns OFF.
. A buzzer will sound every time a cycle is set up.
. It is possible to change the course and cycle with the function buttons during the operation of
a course. (Except for the Lingerie and Wool Courses)
. If users swich on the Power, a melody plays once.
. It is not possible to select any button, except the Power Button, while the melody sounds.
. When the Power is switched On, the steering parts (Motor, Valve, Heater, etc.) are in an Off
condition and the Cotton Course is selected as default.
2) Wash Cycle
The Wash Cycle performs the following operations: Water Supply/ Water Stirring/ Wetting/
Heating/ Washing/ Cooling/Drain.
( Wetting/Heating/Cooling cycles are performed only when the temperature is set to over 40.)
3) Water Supply Function
When selecting Wash

-. Water is supplied through cold water + hot water(option) valves to the frequency level of the
wash set up for each course. (The hot-water valve does not operate when the temperature is
set to below 60.) If the wash temperature is set to over 40 for each course, it supplies
water to the set-up level and performs a Wetting Cycle and then starts the Heating cycle.
-. When the water level decreases during the Wetting Cycle after the end of the water
supply, it supplies water using a supplementary water-supply function.
(Except for the Wool and Lingerie courses)
-. Conditions of the Hot-Water Supply (Option)
For a temperature setup of over 60 the cold/hot water valves operate at the same time.

Both cold and hot water are used for steering the water level and as supplementary water.

Samsung Electronics - 15 -
4) Description
When the drying feature starts to operate, the heater, fan/M, drying water supply and
drainage motor will perform their operations, running the motor using a stream of water.
The drying cycle proceeds in the order below:
- The sensing of the Drying Volume
- Primary Drying: Operates a 2000W heater (two 1000W heaters)
- Secondary Drying: Operates a 1000W heater
- Ventilation: When the drying cycle is done with the dryness sensing, the machine turns
off the heater and runs only the fan motor, lowering the temperature inside the drum.
All cycles are completed when the temperature of the internal sensor (air sensing) is
below 70 (60 for inside the drum).
Dedicated Drying Course Algorithm
- When you select dedicated drying, the drying cycle starts to operate as scheduled in
the drying time and options and completes at the end of the cooling phase.
- When drying starts operating, and the water level increases above a certain temperature,
pre-heating is added before dehydrating starts. When you select a drying time, the
washer enters the drying cycle directly without sensing the drying volume. When you
select a drying option, it starts to perform the drying after twice sensing the drying
volume.
- If pre-heating is then added to dehydrating, the display time increases by 17 minutes.
- The operation set in the drying time does not require sensing the drying volume while
the drying option requires that the drying volume is sensed twice and the remaining
time is updated.
Algorithm for the addition of drying to normal courses
-. The drying feature can be added to courses other than wool, lingerie, quilt and drum
washing.
- When drying is added, the last dehydrating cycle is converted from normal to
pre-heat. When the normal cycles are all completed before the drying process starts,
the washer senses the drying volume to reset the drying time and update the
remaining time. (For the drying option)

5) SOFT KEEP
When all cycles are completed along with the drying cycle, the END feature starts to
operate. After which, if the laundry is not removed, the washer rotates the drum in
reverse to avoid wrinkles.
The reverse-rotation continues up to 30 minutes after the completion of all cycles.
The SOFT KEEP time is not added to the total washing time.
When all cycles are done, the END MELODY feature is performed and Door Lock is
deactivated (however, the door stays locked while the drum is rotating).
If the door is opened while the drum is rotating, all motor and display functions stop
operating and turn off.

- 16 - Samsung Electronics
While the Soft Keep feature is running after the washer has performed all cycles and the
first End Melody function, the End Melody feature operates every ten minutes and the End
message is continually displayed.
The rotating direction of the motor is displayed while the washer performs Soft Keep.
While in Soft Keep, no operating keys are active and even if pressed, they will be
ignored.

Q & A

91T D

Q1. When I press a button while the machine is in operation, there is no response.
Please check if the Child Lock feature has been activated on your washing machine, as this
deactivates all operations. To deactivate this feature, refer to the documentation that comes with
your washing machine.

Q2. The dehydrating time for a drying course is set to 17 minutes. I want to change the time.
The dehydrating time has been intentionally extended for faster drying. You cannot change the
time.

Q3. There is no temperature information displayed for the rinse cycle of the Boiling course.
Boiling is only applied to the wash cycle so no temperature is displayed in other cycles.

Q4. The rinse time and the water supplied are too short, causing an incomplete rinse.
The drum washer has twice the normal effect of removing any remaining detergent and sediment
even without adequate water supply as it uses the fall of the water and the dehydrating power to
operate. In addition, the rinse cycle is performed three times by default, which allows you to
have much cleaner and wrinkle-free laundry.

Q5. Doesn't the washing machine need to perform a disentanglement process at intervals, to avoid
the entanglement of the laundry?
The machine applies the technique of using the fall of the water to operate, which results in no
wrinkles or entanglement of the laundry even when laundry is already twisted when inserted. As
experiencing the performance of the machine, will show.

Q6. A light blinks during the dehydrating process after a wash. Is there anything wrong?
Hydrating after washing belongs to the rinse cycle. Nothing is wrong when the light is blinking.
This shows a normal operation, not a malfunction.

Q7. Lather or soapsuds are rarely seen even when I add a more than sufficient amount of detergent
as specified in the documentation. Could this cause an improper wash?
It is recommended using drum-dedicated detergent to avoid inefficient washing and system
malfunctions due to over-bubbling. However, we have informed local users of adequate amounts
of domestic detergent. For effective washing, adjust the detergent amount and do not use more
than the one spoonful, of the spoon supplied with the machine.

Q8. Where is the fluff filter for the drum washer?


The drum washing machine does not have a filter inside the drum for reasons to do with its
structure. Instead, the drainage filter at the bottom of the machine takes on the role of the fluff
filter. Remove the front cover at the bottom, and pull out the black handle by turning it to the
left to remove coins or other foreign substances. For product assembly and disassembly, refer to
the user manual and instructions that come with the machine.

Q9. I hear water continually falling in the drum during the drying process.
This is the laundry condensation process that combines vapor with cold water, to emit them
downwards at the same time. This is a normal drying operation.

Samsung Electronics

Q & A

Q10. In the boiling or drying cycle, the transparent door becomes too hot. Is this ok?
To lessen the risk of burns or physical damage due to the hot temperature inside the drum
during the boiling or drying process, Samsung Electronics uses high intensity plastics for the
external door and tempered glass for the internal door, ensuring your safety even if a high
temperature is transferred to the door. The 10kg drum washing machine is designed to use a
dual door system of high intensity plastics and tempered glass for ensuring the safety of the
user. (And is much safer than other manufacturers).

Q11. Can I use a local dry-cleaning detergent for effective dry-cleaning in the drying cycle?
The drying cycle lasts for a longer than normal time. Do not use other detergents or chemicals
as they may damage the laundry.

Q12. The error message hot is displayed.


This message is displayed when you attempt to open the door by force or manipulate the
buttons while it is too hot inside. This is a message that informs you to take note of the hot
temperature inside. Wait until the temperature cools down before re-trying.

Q13. The drying time and drying option are not selectable at the same time.
The drying option is a kind of a course that lasts until the laundry is completely dried while
the drying time is a short function that adds another drying time when the laundry is still wet
even at the end of the drying cycle.

Q14. In the last dehydrating cycle, the time information disappears for a second and is redisplayed
with a different time. Is this a malfunction?
The machine detects the weight of the laundry after washing and before dehydrating and
updates the remaining time for the final drying time. According to the change of the laundry
after washing, the drying time is updated accordingly. This is a normal process.

Q15. While drying, only the right side of the machine is too hot. Is this a malfunction?
The drying heater is located on the right side of the machine and may send the heat to the
surface. However, there is no danger to your safety.

Q16. When I select a lower drying course, drying does not work until the end of the time set.
You should use the lower drying feature only for laundry that risks being contracted or
malformed. And the laundry should not be over 3kg because overweight laundry can cause
incomplete drying.

Q17. The drying process does not stop even when the END message is displayed.
You can remove your laundry. Even after the drying process, the machine performs a drying
cycle at intervals to protect the laundry from becoming wrinkled.

Q18. The machine shakes a bit when it detects the weight of the laundry before drying. Is this a
problem with the leveling?
This might occur temporarily when the machine rotates at a high speed to sense the weight of
the laundry, especially a large amount of laundry. This is not a problem with the leveling. So
you do not need to readjust the feet of the machine for leveling purposes.

Q & A

Q19. I want to wash and dry my quilt. How large a volume can I wash?
Only a cotton pad or single-layer sheet (Ex. a curtain) is possible for drying. The rolled part of
a thick quilt with cotton inside may not be washed and dried. We recommend you try it yourself
before determining an adequate volume of laundry.

Q20. I want to only operate the drying function, but dehydrating is added.
This occurs for faster drying when the machine has water remaining inside the drum or the
laundry has too much moisture in it.

Q21. I want to only operate the drying function. Does that mean that I do not need to connect the
cold water tap to the machine?
At the beginning, washing can proceed without cold water but within a certain time, the machine
stops working when it detects the disconnection of the cold water tap and an error message is
displayed. Make sure you connect the cold water tap to the machine.

Q22. What is the difference between the anti-bacteria and sterilization features?
The sterilization feature gets rid of about 35000 bacteria at the beginning of the process,
making the laundry bacteria-free.
The anti-bacteria function injects a small number of bacteria into the bacteria-free state and
checks how many bacteria survive in 18 hours.
In short, removing bacteria is the sterilization cycle and the prevention of the propagation of
bacteria is the anti-bacteria cycle.

Q23. How long does the anti-bacteria state last?


About 3 months.

Q24. How long can I use the silver plate?


It can be used for more than a decade on a four-times-a-week basis.

Q25. Isn't the silver-ionized water harmful?


It is not harmful at all. The ionization technique is currently prevailing.

Q26. Is there any possibility of discoloration of the laundry due to the silver?
Discoloration might occur when a too high density of silver is used. However, the washing
machine does not use silver in any such quantities.
No discoloration occurs with the ionized silver water in the drying as well as the boiling cycle.

Q27. How can I distinguish 'normal' water and silver-ionized water, as they look the same?
The silver-ionized water is a bit opaque in a transparent vessel. However, they are not
distinguishable by the eye, under normal conditions.
