WARNING!

ENGLISH
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the washer, follow basic
precautions, including the following: Before the washer is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to prevent children from hiding inside. Do not install or store the washer where it will be exposed to the weather. Do not tamper with controls. Do not repair or replace any part of the washer or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in the user-maintenance instructions or published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out. See Installation Instructions for grounding requirements. ALWAYS follow the fabric care instructions supplied by the garment manufacturer. Do not place items exposed to cooking oil in your washer. Items contaminated with cooking oils may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch fire. Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.
Read all instructions before using the washer. Do not wash articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances, as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode. Do not add gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances to the wash water. These substances give off vapors that could ignite or explode. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for 2 weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period, before using the washing machine, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time. Do not allow children to play on or in the washer. Close supervision of children is necessary when the washer is used near children.

Electrical connection

Do not use an extension cord or double adapter. ENGLISH If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a qualified person in order to avoid a hazard. If the machine will not be used for an extended time, unplug it and shut off the water supply. Connect the machine to a grounded outlet in accordance with current wiring regulations. The appliance must be positioned so that the plug is easily accessible.

Connecting water supply hose
Water supply pressure must be between 4.5 ~ 145 PSI (30~1000 kPa) Do not crossthread when connecting inlet hose to the valve. If the water supply pressure is more than 145 PSI, a pressure reducing device should be installed. Two Sealing washers are supplied with the water inlet hoses to prevent water leaks. Check for leakage of washing machine connections by turning the tap completely on. Periodically check the condition of the hose and replace the hose if necessary. Make sure that there is no kink in the hose and that it is not crushed. Be sure that the two water input ports are connected to the correct water faucets. The connector for hot water is colored red.
NOTE: Washing Machine is to be connected to the water mains using new hoses. Old hoses should not be used. Repairs to the washing machine must only be carried out qualified personnel. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious malfunctioning. Contact your local service center. Do not install your washing machine in rooms where temperatures below freezing may occur. Frozen hoses may burst under pressure. The reliability of the electronic control unit may be impaired at temperatures below the freezing point. If the appliance is delivered in the winter months and temperatures are below freezing. Store the washing machine at room temperature for a few hours before putting it into operation.
Installation of drain hose
Place the end of the drain hose in the hole of the floor drain system.
The drain hose should not be placed higher than 96 in. from the bottom of the washer. Properly securing the drain hose will protect the floor from damage due to water leakage.
When installing the drain hose at a sink, secure it so it cannot break away and cause flooding and damage. Properly securing the drain hose will protect the floor from damage due to water leakage.
This equipment is not designed for maritime use or for mobile installations such as in RVs, aircraft, etc. Turn off the faucet if the machine is to be left for an extended period of time (e.g. holiday). When disposing of the appliance, cut off the power cable, and destroy the plug. Disable the door lock to prevent young children being trapped inside. Packaging material (e.g. Films, Styrofoam) can be dangerous for children. There is a risk of suffocation! Keep all packaging from children.

Level adjustment

Leveling the washing machine properly prevents excessive noise and vibration. Install the appliance on a solid and level floor surface, preferably in a corner of the room. ENGLISH
If the floor is uneven, adjust the adjustable feet as required. (Do not insert pieces of wood, etc. under the feet.) Make sure that all four feet are stable and resting on the floor and then check that the appliance is perfectly level. (Use a leveling tool.) After the washer is level, tighten the lock nuts up towards of the base of the washer. All lock nuts must be tightened.

Diagonal Check When pushing down the edges of the washing machine top plate diagonally, the machine should not move up and down at all. (Please, check both directions.) If machine rocks when pushing the machine top plate diagonally, adjust the feet again.
PREPARATION BEFORE WASHING

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before operating this appliance.

1. Fabric Care Labels

Look for a care label on your clothes. This will tell you about the fabric content of your garment and how it should be washed.

2. Sorting

To get the best results, sort clothes into loads that can be washed with the same wash cycle. Different fabrics need to be washed in different ways. Always sort dark colors from pale colors and whites. Wash separately as dye and lint transfer can occur causing discoloration of white clothing. If possible, do not wash heavily soiled items with lightly soiled ones. Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light) Color (White, Lights, Darks) Lint (Lint Producers, Collectors) Separate clothes according to amount of soil. Separate white fabrics from colored fabrics. Wash lint producers and lint collectors separately.

3. Check before loading

Combine large and small items in a load. Load large items first. Large items should not be more than half the total wash load. Do not wash single items. This may cause an out-of-balance load. Add one or two similar items. Check all the pockets to make sure that they are empty. Things such as clip, matches, pens, coins, and keys can damage both your washer and your clothes.
Close zippers, hooks, and strings to make sure that these items do not snag on other clothes.
Pretreat dirt and stains by brushing a little detergent dissolved in water onto stains like collars and cuffs to help lift dirt.
NOTE: Do not wash or spin water-proof clothes.

USING THE DISPENSER

The automatic dispenser consists of four compartments which hold 1) liquid chlorine bleach, 2) liquid fabric softener, 3) liquid or powdered detergent for prewash and 4) liquid or powdered detergent and color safe bleach for main wash. All laundry products can be added at once in their respective dispenser compartments. They will be dispensed at the appropriate time for most effective cleaning. After loading the laundry additives into the dispenser, close the dispenser drawer. Add detergent, bleach and fabric softener to the automatic dispenser following these steps:

1. Open the dispenser drawer. 2. Load the laundry products into the appropriate compartments. 3. Close the dispenser drawer.

About detergent

Low sudsing detergent is recommended for this washer. Use the manufacturer's recommended amount. If low sudsing detergent is not available, a reduced amount of regular detergent may be used. Because reducing the amount of detergent may reduce cleaning, it is important to pretreat stains, sort carefully by color and soil level, and avoid overloading. Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for water temperature, water hardness, size and soil level of the load. For best results, avoid using too much detergent.
1. Prewash Detergent Compartment
Liquid Chlorine Bleach Compartment Add detergent to this compartment when using the Prewash option. Liquid or powdered detergent may be used in this compartment. The detergent will automatically be dispensed during Prewash if the Prewash option is selected. Add 1/2 the recommended amount of detergent to the Prewash compartment and the recommended amount of detergent to the main wash compartment. NOTE : Liquid detergent will drain into the washer drum as it is added.
Liquid Fabric Softener Compartment Prewash Compartment Main Wash Compartment
2. Main Wash Detergent Compartment
Add measured detergent to this compartment for Main wash. Detergent is flushed from the dispenser at the beginning of the cycle. Either powdered or liquid detergent can be used. Liquid or powdered color-safe bleach may be added to the main wash compartment along with the same type of liquid or powdered detergent. When using liquid detergent, make sure the liquid detergent box and insert are in place. Do not exceed the maximum fill line. For powered detergent, remove both the liquid detergent box and insert. Powdered detergent will not dispense with the liquid detergent box and insert in place. NOTE : If you are using the Prewash option, powdered detergent must be used in the main wash compartment. Liquid detergent will drain into the washer drum as it is added. Insert Liquid Detergent Box
3. Liquid Bleach Compartment
Add measured liquid chlorine bleach to this compartment. The bleach will be automatically dispensed at the proper time during the wash cycle. Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Overfilling can cause early dispensing of the bleach which could result in damaged clothes. Do not pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly onto the load or into the drum. Fabric damage can occur. Do not use powdered bleach in this compartment.
4. Fabric Softener Compartment
Add recommended amount of fabric softener to this compartment. Dilute concentrated softeners with warm water to the fill line. Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Overfilling can cause early dispensing of the fabric softener which could result in stained clothes. Do not pour fabric softener directly on the wash load. The fabric softener will be automatically dispensed during the last rinse cycle.
