How to use AddWash on a Samsung washing machine
How to add clothes mid-cycle in my Samsung washing machine?
The Add Wash feature on your Samsung washing machine allows you to add clothes, rinse hand-washed items, or add fabric softener even after the cycle has started. This convenient function eliminates the need to restart the entire wash cycle due to forgotten laundry.
1. How to use the Add Wash feature on your Samsung washing machine
- Ensure the washing machine is running a compatible cycle. The Add Wash feature is available during specific phases of the wash, rinse, or spin cycle.
- Press the Add Wash button on the control panel. The machine will pause the cycle and open the door automatically.
- Add the forgotten clothes, hand-washed items, or fabric softener through the opening.
- Close the door securely. The machine will resume the cycle automatically.
- If the door does not open, wait for the cycle to reach a compatible phase where the Add Wash function is active.
2. Additional things to check
- Ensure the washing machine door is unlocked before attempting to use the Add Wash feature. The child lock function may prevent the door from opening.
