Quick answer
5C2 on a Samsung AirDresser points to the water supply chamber: no water in the fill tank or dirt where it sits.
Model compatibility: Samsung reuses codes across series and model years, so 5C2 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
Water supply chamber problem.
When the display reads 5C2, the Samsung AirDresser has a water supply chamber problem. The regional support text names two causes: no water in the fill tank, or a blockage where the tank sits.
Steps in Samsung’s order
Open the door and check the water level in the fill tank (the right-hand tank). If it is empty, take it out and fill it without going past MAX.
Inspect the tank and its seat for dirt. Do not push objects into the water channel to clear it, as that can damage the inner fitting.
Put the tank back and close the door.
Press Start/Pause to carry on with the mode.
If the error returns when the mode starts again, call service.
