Your Samsung AirDresser may accumulate limestone and other debris after it’s been used for a period of time. This is caused by the calcium contents in the water and steam. However, you can run a descaling cycle on your AirDresser to keep it free of debris. A descaling cycle will also improve the performance and lifespan of your product.

Descale your AirDresser

Important: Please use a descaling agent meant for coffee machines, and not one meant for washing machines. Do not use laundry detergent or fabric softener as a descaling agent.

1 When the “Descaling Required” message appears on the AirDresser’s display, remove all items from the AirDresser.

2 Depending on your model, touch and hold Drying and Delay End, or Sanitize and Dry on the control panel for 3 seconds. Then, empty the water from the Refill and Drain tanks.

Note: If the “Empty the Drain tank” message appears on the display during the descaling cycle, empty the Drain tank.

5 When the “Check the Refill & Drain tanks" message appears on the display, empty both the Refill and Drain tanks. Then, rinse them thoroughly. Fill the Refill tank up to the MAX line with clean water, and then reinsert the Refill and Drain tanks.

Notes:

  • If you do not perform the descaling cycle immediately after receiving the “Descaling required” notification message, some functions may be restricted and the AirDresser’s performance may decrease.
  • Vibrations and noises may occur during the descaling process. This is normal.
