Use this guide to enter Samsung's hidden Smart Install diagnostic mode on the WF45R6100, WF45R6200, and WF45R6300 washing machines. Smart Install lets you run an automatic self-check, manually step through built-in test modes, and view stored error codes before replacing parts or calling for service.

Power on the washer

Make sure the washing machine is plugged in.
Press the power button to turn the washer on.
Use the dial to select any wash mode.

Enter Smart Install mode

Press the Delay End button, or the button that lets you delay the washer from starting.
Press or press-and-hold the button until the delay time shows 17 H.
Press and hold Start/Pause for 7 seconds.
Keep holding Start/Pause even if the washer starts running.
Release the button when the cycle ends and AS appears on the display.

Run the automatic check

With AS showing, press Start to begin the automatic check.
Let the washer run through the numbered sequence of tests shown on the display.
Check the result after all 10 modes run.
OK or OT means the checks came back properly.
NG means a check failed, and an error code should populate for the error code mode.

Exit Smart Install when needed

Press the power button to turn the washer off to exit Smart Install.
Repeat the Smart Install entry button sequence if you want to return to AS.

Manually step through the Smart Install test modes

With AS showing, press the Delay End button to start manual test mode.
Wait for the door to lock and the display to show 1.
Press the Delay End button to cycle forward through the numbered modes.
Watch mode 8 for the drum spin test, and read RPM on the display in multiples of 10.
Expect a maximum reading around 120 when the washer reaches maximum spin speed.
Make sure the washer drained all water in mode 7 before the unit spins in mode 8.
After mode 10, the door unlocks and the washer returns to the AS screen.

Open the stored error code list

With AS showing, press the first button on the right at the bottom of the control panel.
Use the Alarm Off button if that is the bottom-right button on the washer.
Confirm that CR appears on the display.
Turn the jog dial to scroll through stored error codes.
The list only scrolls forward, so keep turning the dial until it returns to CR to restart the list.
If there are no stored errors, the display shows three horizontal lines each time you turn the dial.

Power off after checking codes

Press the power button to turn the washer off when you’re done viewing codes.
Turn the washer back on to return to normal operation.
The washer may store codes even when powered down, and this video doesn’t show a way to erase them.

Warning about missing error code meanings and fixes

The source video lists codes such as 1C, 3C, 4C, 4C2, 5C, 9C1/9C2, AC-family codes, BC2, DC/DC1, HC/HC1, LC, OC, TC1, UB, SUD, 8C-family codes, and SF.

Write down any NG or stored error code before powering the washer off so you can continue diagnosis accurately. Repair didn't go as planned? Ask our Answers community for help.
