Use the sequence meaning → symptoms → accessible checks → stop conditions. For SUD, the current manufacturer-sourced summary is: Samsung states that the washer pauses to let excess suds dissipate and that the code normally reflects incorrect detergent use rather than a service fault.

Safe sequence

  1. 1Allow the washer to complete its automatic suds-reduction pause.
  2. 2Use only the detergent type specified in the model manual.
  3. 3Reduce the dose for concentrated detergent and future small loads.

Stop and get qualified help when

  • Foam or water leaks from the appliance
  • The code persists with correct detergent and dosage
