Quick answer
HC6 on the current Samsung AirDresser warns of a steam heater that is too hot.
Model compatibility: Samsung reuses codes across series and model years, so HC6 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
Steam heater temperature too high.
If your current Samsung AirDresser shows HC6, the temperature of the steam heater is too high. The Russian page labels it a steam heater error with high heater temperature.
Reset sequence
Shut the cabinet down with the Power button.
Wait for 10 seconds.
Power it on and relaunch the mode that was in progress.
A second HC6 after this reset means it is time to ask for service.
