Take the detergent tray out and give it a good wash?All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.
Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.0 -
then you are in a more informed position than the clairvoyants on here who are trying to imagine what you have done, which washing machine it is, and what a basket with two lines looks likeDon't you dare criticise what you cannot understand0

Make a solution of 1 to 1 vinegar and water and warm it up a little.
Take the detergent tray out and let it soak in your solution for a couple of hours.
Remove and scrub clean with something like an old toothbrush.
Rinse off.
If scale still there, repeat with neat vinegar.0 -
I think the 'DIY not' forums have people that understand error messages.
Or if it isn't that forum, google 'what does samsung washing machine error message mean' or similar. There's definitley a forum out there.Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.

typicaly the standard symbols on the tray are
2 lines main wash
1 line pre wash
other softener. (often a flower type symbol)
which model washer.
is it new one with auto detergent or and old model?
Samsung codes are normally 2 letters/numbers.0
