What is the Delicates cycle used for?
This gentler cycle is for washable fabrics that need reduced mechanical action.
It normally uses softer wash motion and a gentler spin profile to reduce stretching, tangling and wear.
Choose another cycle for: Heavy soil, bulky pieces and hand-wash-only garments unless their label permits machine washing.
What this means for your load
For sheer and delicate fabrics; use liquid detergent as directed. Check the appliance display for its current estimate.
Why the time may change: Load balance, selected spin speed and extra rinse can change the total time.

When will it finish?
This variable program depends on the stored cycle, options or sensed load. Use the appliance's current displayed estimate.
Estimated energy and local cost
This range is calculated from the documented cycle characteristics and appliance type. It is deliberately shown as a range because load conditions, temperature selections, sensors and options change consumption.
Planning the Delicates cycle on the WF45R6100AW
Delicate programs reduce mechanical action, heat or spray intensity. Load composition and moisture sensing can still make the displayed finish time move.
On the Samsung WF45R6100AW, watch for load size, water temperature, suds control and balance corrections. Leave room for items to move and treat the panel estimate as the best live prediction.
The planning range on this page is 0.1–1.5 kWh; use the ZIP or bill-rate calculator for a local cost estimate. The exact-model reference is linked from samsung.com, while estimates are labeled separately.
