features

• Water Saving program

This is a specially designed program that enables you to wash laundry effectively with the
minimum amount of water.

• Last Settings Feature

This option loads the previous course settings.
The Last Settings feature automatically remembers the last course that was run, making it

possible to use the same settings as the last time the washer was used without having to
manually select all the settings.

• Diamond Drum

The diamond shaped drum creates a high water pressure, removing dirt from the laundry
effectively. The diamond drum minimizes fabric damage extending the lifetime of the fabric.
The glittering inner tube is both beautiful and powerful in the wash effect it creates.

• Fuzzy Control

Fuzzy control operates with best washing program by sensing the washload like artificial
intelligence.

• Tempered Transparent Door

Lets you observe while the washer is operating. Check on your laundry’s progress at any
time.

•Eco Storm

A giant pulsator creates a powerful water current, which is further accelerated by a tilted
center pulsator spinning at 360°. The resulting waterfall effect speeds up the circulation
of the water to achieve a cleaner wash using just a small amount of water. (A better wash
performance is achieved.)

•Wobble

Conventional top loading automatic washing machines rotate the laundry clockwise or
counter clockwise in 2 dimensions but Wobble Technology™ rotates the laundry by throwing
it around in 3 dimensions.

Since Wobble Technology™ moves the laundry horizontally and vertically at the same time,
the rotating water stream may seem different from that of other washing machines.

One of the features of the 3 dimensional wash function of Wobble Technology™ is washing
at multiple water levels and this may include a wash period performed at a low water level.

• Magic Filter

This unique Magic Filter ensures that all the lint inside the tub is captured for top quality
filtering results to deliver consistently effective cleaning results.

• CHILD-LOCK Function

This is a device to protect children from being accidentally hurt while playing with the washer.
(For more information, see page 11, 14.)

• Tub clean

Use this program to clean the tub. It will keep the tub clean and sanitary.
When using the machine under humid conditions for an extended time, various bacteria from

the air may stick to the tub and form black dirt (fungi), causing damage to the human body.
To keep the tub clean and hygienic at all times, it is recommended detergents to clean the
tub regularly at least once every one to three months.

• Aqua preserve

Samsung’s Aqua Preserve reduced waste of water by reusing last rinsed out water. After
rinsing the clothes lastly, the washing machine keeps the water before final spin-dry and use
it again to save water and your money!

(This function is only available to use when you select twice of rinsing)
