This document describes a Samsung front-loading washing machine, specifically models WF1702WQ, WF1700WQ, WF1702YQ, and WF1700YQ. The manual is printed on 100% recycled paper, highlighting Samsung's commitment to environmental responsibility.
Function Description:
The Samsung washing machine is designed to make laundry easier and more efficient through its advanced features. It utilizes "Fuzzy Control" automatic control system, which sets the correct temperature, washing time, and speed based on the selected wash program. The machine offers various wash cycles tailored to different fabric types and soiling levels, including specialized programs for delicate items, wool, and outdoor wear. A key innovation is the Eco Bubble Technology, which pre-activates detergent by mixing it with water and air to create a foam cushion. This foam penetrates fabrics faster and more efficiently than conventional wash systems, delivering superior cleaning, especially at colder temperatures, and reducing detergent residue. The machine also includes a "Delay End" function, allowing users to schedule a wash cycle to finish at a later time, up to 19 hours in one-hour increments. For safety, a "Child Lock" function prevents accidental changes to the wash cycle, and an "Aqua Hose & Leakage Sensor" (on selected models) automatically cuts off water flow if a leak is detected, displaying a warning indicator.
