If your Samsung washing machine is displaying a message that it's hot and won't open after washing, it's likely that the machine's internal temperature is elevated due to the washing process. In such cases, you may need to wait for a while to allow the machine to cool down before attempting to open it.
Here are some steps you can follow:
Power off the machine: Turn off the power supply to the washing machine. This will ensure that it doesn't continue to generate heat while you wait for it to cool down.
Wait for some time: The amount of time you need to wait will depend on how long the machine has been running and the specific model of your Samsung washing machine. In general, waiting for at least 30 minutes should be sufficient for the internal temperature to drop.
Check the display: Once you've waited for the appropriate amount of time, check the display on the washing machine. If it still shows a temperature-related warning, give it some more time to cool down.
Open the door: After the cooling period, you can try opening the washing machine's door. If the temperature has returned to a safe level, the door should open without any issues. If it still doesn't open or shows an error message, there may be another problem with the machine that requires further troubleshooting or professional assistance.
If waiting for an extended period doesn't resolve the issue, or if you encounter any error codes or unusual behavior, it's best to refer to the user manual of your Samsung washing machine for specific troubleshooting steps. If the problem persists, you should consider reaching out to Samsung customer support or a qualified appliance repair technician for assistance.
