Samsung Dishwasher Lines and Features
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
Samsung requires the drain hose to have an air gap or high loop, and a unit sitting on its own drain hose is the most common cause of drain trouble after installation. Source: Samsung US - Samsung dishwasher is not draining
What Samsung Says to Check First
- Dishwasher not cleaning. Check first for power loss, an error code or blinking lights, then confirm detergent is dispensing and dissolving. Source: Samsung US - Dishwasher cycle ends before dishes are clean
