How Samsung Dishwashers Are Built
Samsung dishwashers use one of three filter setups (a removable fine filter, a twist-lock cylindrical micro filter, or a non-removable filter), and an incorrectly reassembled filter can cause drain or overflow errors. Source: Samsung US - How to clean your Samsung dishwasher
Most Samsung dishwashers dry by condensation on the cooler stainless steel tub walls, while some plastic-tub models add a Heated Dry option. Source: Samsung US - Samsung dishwasher does not dry dishes
What Samsung Says to Check First

Hard water leaves spots and film on glasses and builds up on dishwasher spray arms and inlet screens, which is worth mentioning when you book a repair.
