Turn off Automatic power off on washing machine

forbego420 — Sun, 10 Nov 2019 19:11:26 GMT

My smart (stupid) wn10n645 row, turns itself off at the end of its cycle. Can I stop it doing that? It's driving my wife mad, because she forgets there are clothes in it, until the next time she tries to fill it.

Hey @forbego420! Is your machine directly plugged into the wall with no extension cable or timer between it and the socket? If so, please test the electrical socket by plugging in a different appliance. Does the socket work correctly?

Hi yes, it is. The problem isn't that it goes off mid cycle it's that it power saves or something at the end and I want it to stay on so we remember that there's a load in it?

Oh right! Turning off at the end of every cycle is an embedded feature of the washing machine and I'm afraid there is no actual way to keep the appliance on. This feature helps saving power to the household and a beep is normally present to notify the owner that the washing has finished. Nevertheless, I will definitely pass your feedback on to the relevant team .

I second this request. Turning the control panel off after its cycle has completed is very very annoying. How about leaving a single LED on somehow or some other indicator that the cycle has completed? Also, the suggestion that this a power saving feature is a bit disengenuous as the amount of power used to keep the control panel active is very very small and essentially trivial.

It's ridiculous, isn't it!

For a £500 machine it sure has a lot of odd quirks.

I don't know what the point of these forums is because it's surely not so Samsung can take feedback onboard from their customers! A year later we're still bugged by this machine's features!

Sad but true. Samsung rarely listen but maybe leadership will change and the will want to increase sales and make more money. We just need to keep making noise until its resolved. Also a competitor who wants our money might hear us.

Even more annoying, mine does it when connected for "smart control" meaning you can't control it!
rediculous!

Hi we’ve just got the ww90t534dan/s1 vi Eco Bubble. I love it as it can be controlled via an app on your phone. However once I’ve selected the wash I want and sent it to the washer I have to go abs switch it on because it’s automatically switched itself off at the end of the cycle. Seems a bit pointless being able to control it via the smart app if I have to turn it on. Advice please

2 years later and this is still an issue. My washer and dryer both turn themselves off, meaning i cant do anything with them from my smart app. I will be returning them this week. They are great appliances overall but this completely kills the smart home experience.

Hi all , I have the WW90T534 wifi washing machine . i think if on the samsung smartthings app if you press the wifi button on the front of the washing machine and then press 'remaining laundry' then 'Going Out mode' or 'Remaining laundry alarm' (or select both) then after the wash the drum rotates slowly until you get home, or go to empty the machine after its cycle has finished to stop the clothes creasing - this could be some workaround to stop the machine turning off after a cycle - try it and see, and then get back with your findings?

Are you a tech support bot? You wrote the stupidest response I’ve ever read in a forum.

Oh wait “Carol”…this may be the stupidest response to a customer. You do not want to understand your customers and just feed them a line of marketing *****.
