Basic precautions
1 Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2 Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this User
Guide.
3 Before use, the washer must be properly installed as described in this guide.
4 Always follow the fabric care instructions supplied by the garment
manufacturer.
5 Do not wash or dry 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.
6 Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close supervision of
children is necessary when the appliance is used near children.
7 Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove the lid of
the washing compartment.
8 Do not reach into the appliance if the tub is moving.
9 Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather
or freezing temperatures.
10 Do not tamper with the controls.
11 Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing
unless it is specifically recommended in the user-maintenance instructions or
in published user-repair instructions that you understand.
12 Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot-water
system that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS
EXPLOSIVE. If the hot-water system has not been used for such a period,
before using a 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.
13 Keep the area underneath and around your appliance free of combustible
materials (lint, paper, rags, and so on), gasoline, chemicals, and other
flammable vapors and liquids.
14 Do not place items exposed to cooking oil in your washer. Items contaminated
with cooking oil may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause a load
to catch fire.
15 This washer is not designed for maritime use or for mobile installations such as
in RVs, aircraft, and other mobile platforms.
16 Turn off the water faucets and unplug the washer if the machine is to be left
for an extended period of time, such as during vacations.
17 Packaging material can be dangerous for children. There is a risk of
suffocation! Keep all packaging away from children.
18 Always check the inside of the washer for foreign objects before loading
laundry. Keep the lid closed when not in use.

10 Keep all packaging material well out of the reach of children, as packaging
materials can be dangerous to children. If a child places a bag over his or her
head, he or she may suffocate.
11 Do not let children or infirm persons use this washer unsupervised. Failure to
do so may result in electric shock, burns, or injury.
12 Do not attempt to repair, disassemble, or modify the appliance yourself.
Do not use any fuse (such as copper, steel wire, etc.) other than the standard
fuse.
If you need to repair or reinstall the appliance, contact your nearest service
center.
Failure to do so may result in electric shock, fire, problems with the product,
or injury.

14 If the water supply hose comes loose from the faucet and floods the
appliance, unplug the power plug. Failure to do so may result in electric shock
or fire.
15 Do not mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or acids such as vinegar. Incorrect
usage can produce poisonous gas, resulting in serious injury.
16 Do not reach into the washer while parts are moving. Before loading,
unloading, or adding items, press the (start/pause) button and allow the
tub to come to a complete stop before reaching inside. Failure to do so may
result in electric shock, injury, or fire.
17 Do not allow children to play on or in the washer. Close supervision of children
is necessary when the washer is used near children. As children grow, teach
them the proper, safe use of all appliances. Failure to do so may result in
serious injury.
18 Keep laundry products out of reach of children. Observe all warnings on
product labels and follow them. Failure to do so may result in serious injury.
19 Disconnect this appliance from the power supply before attempting any user
maintenance. Pressing the (power) button does not disconnect this
appliance from the power supply. Failure to do so may result in electric shock,
injury, or fire.
20 Do not clean the appliance by spraying water directly onto it.
21 Do not use benzene, thinner, or alcohol to clean the appliance. This may result
in discoloration, deformation, damage, electric shock, or fire.
22 Unplug the power plug when the appliance is not being used for long periods
of time or during a thunder/lightning storm. Failure to do so may result in
electric shock or fire.
23 Keep hands and foreign objects clear of the lid and latch area when closing
the lid. Failure to do so may result in personal injury.
24 If the washer is contaminated by a foreign substance such as detergent, dirt,
or food waste, unplug the power plug and clean the washer with a damp, soft
cloth. Failure to do so may result in discoloration, deformation, damage, or
rust.
25 The clear portion of the lid can be broken by a strong impact. Take care when
using the washer. If the clear portion is cracked or broken, it may result in
injury.
26 After a water supply failure or when reconnecting the water supply hose, open
the faucet slowly.
27 Open the faucet slowly after a long period of non-use. The air pressure in the
water supply hose or the water pipe may result in damage to a part or in water
leakage.
28 If a drain error occurs during an operation, check if there is a draining problem.
If the washer is used when it is flooded because of a draining problem, it may
result in electric shock or fire due to an electrical short circuit. Do not insert
your hand or a metal object under the washer. This may result in injury.
29 Insert laundry into the washer completely so that the laundry does not get
caught in the lid. If laundry gets caught in the lid, it may result in damage to
the laundry or the washer, or result in water leakage.
30 Make sure that the faucet is turned off when the washer is not being used.

31 Make sure that the water supply hose connectors are properly tightened.
Failure to do so may result in property damage or injury.
32 Open the faucet and check if the water supply hose connector is firmly
tightened and that there is no water leaking before using the product. If the
water supply hose connectors are loose, it may result in water leakage.
33 Do not stand on top of the appliance or place objects (such as laundry, lighted
candles, lighted cigarettes, dishes, chemicals, metal objects, etc.) on the
appliance. This may result in electric shock, fire, problems with the product, or
injury.
34 Do not operate the appliance with wet hands. This may result in electric shock.
35 Do not spray volatile material such as insecticide onto the surface of the
appliance. As well as being harmful to humans, it may also result in electric
shock, fire, or problems with the product.
36 Do not place an object that generates an electromagnetic field near the
washer. This may result in injury due to a malfunction.
37 Since the water drained during a high temperature wash or drying cycle is hot,
do not touch the water. This may result in burns or injury.
38 Do not wash, spin, or dry water-proof seats, mats, or clothing.
39 Do not wash thick, hard mats even if the washer mark is on the care label. This
may result in injury or damage to the washer, walls, floor, or clothing due to
abnormal vibrations.
40 Do not operate the washer when the detergent dispenser is removed. This
may result in electric shock or injury due to water leakage.
41 Do not insert your hand into the detergent dispenser after opening it. This
may result in injury because your hand may be caught.
42 Do not place any non-laundry objects, such as shoes, food waste, or animals
into the washer. This can cause abnormal vibrations that can damage the
washer, and, in the case of pets, cause severe injury or death.
43 Do not press the buttons using sharp objects such as pins, knifes, or
fingernails. This may result in electric shock or injury.
44 Do not wash laundry contaminated by oils, creams, or lotions usually found in
skin-care shops or massage clinics. This may result in the rubber seal
becoming deformed and water leakage.
45 Make sure that the water inlet pipe is connected and the tap is opened before
washing clothes.
46 Do not leave metal objects (safety pins, hair pins, and so on) or bleach in the
tub for long periods of time. This may cause the tub to rust.
If rust appears on the surface of the tub, apply a neutral cleansing agent to
the surface and use a sponge to clean it. Never use a metal brush.
47 Do not use hot water from water cooling/heating devices. This may result in
problems with the washer.
48 Do not use natural hand-washing soap in the washer. If it hardens and
accumulates inside the washer, it may cause problems with the product,
discoloration, rust, or bad odors.

49 If using a washing net with this machine (not provided), do not wash laundry
items such as bedding in the washing net. Doing so may result in injury due to
abnormal vibrations. Place only smaller items, such as lace socks and lingerie,
in the washing net.
50 Do not use hardened powdered detergent. If it accumulates inside the washer,
it may result in water leakage.
51 Do not wash throw rugs or doormats. Doing so may cause sand to accumulate
inside the washer, resulting in mechanical problems.
52 Do not wash water-resistant or water-repellent clothing. This may result in an
abnormal vibrating and out-of-balance condition that could result in physical
injury, property damage and/or appliance damage.
Grounding/Earthing
1 This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown,
grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least
resistance for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having
an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
2 WARNING: Do not ground the appliance to a gas pipe, plastic water
pipe, or telephone.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a
risk of electric shock, fire, explosion, or problems with the product. Check with
a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
3 Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance – if it will not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
Choosing a proper location
1 Do not install this appliance near a heater or inflammable material.
2 Do not install this appliance in a humid, oily, or dusty location, or in a location
exposed to direct sunlight or water (rain drops).
3 Do not install this appliance in a location where gas may leak. Failure to do so
may result in electric shock or fire.
4 If the washer is moved to a new location, have it checked and re-installed by a
qualified service technician. Failure to follow this warning may result in
electric shock or fire.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Choosing a location
For best performance, you must install your washer on a solid, level floor.
Wooden floors may need to be reinforced to minimize vibration or
unbalanced load situations.
Carpeting and soft tile surfaces can contribute to excessive vibration, which
can cause your washer to move slightly during the spin cycle.

You must ground your washer. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown,
grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least
resistance for the electric current.
Your washer has a power cord with a three-pronged grounding plug for use in
a correctly installed and grounded outlet.
Water requirements
To fill your washer in the correct amount of time, the water pressure needs to be
between 29 and 116 psi (200 to 800 kPa).
If the water pressure is less than 14 psi (100 kPa):
The water valve may fail or may not shut off completely.
The time it takes to fill your washer may be longer than the time your washer
controls allow. Your washer turns off and reports an error. A time-limit is built
into the controls to prevent flooding in your home if a hose becomes loose.
Water inlet hoses must be purchased separately. You can buy inlet hoses in
various lengths up to 8 ft. (240 cm).
To avoid the possibility of water damage:
Make sure that the water faucets are easily accessible.
Turn off the faucets when you aren’t using it.
Periodically check to make sure that water isn’t leaking from the water hose
fittings.
Drainage requirements
The recommended height for the drain standpipe is 48 in. (122 cm).
The drain hose must be routed through the hose holder to the standpipe.
The standpipe must be large enough to accept the outside diameter of the
drain hose.
WARNINGS:
You’re responsible for providing adequate electrical services for your washer.
To prevent unnecessary risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal injury, all
wiring and grounding must be done in accordance with the National Electrical
Code ANSI/FNPA, No.70 Latest Revision and local codes and ordinances.
Never connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or hot
water pipes.
Note: The drain hose is inside your washer tub.

Installing your washer
You will need:
Step 1: Select a location
Before you install your washer, make sure that the location:
Is a hard, level surface without carpeting or soft flooring that can obstruct
ventilation.
Is away from direct sunlight.
Has adequate ventilation.
Isn’t exposed to freezing temperatures (32° F or 0° C).
Is away from heat sources such as oil or gas.
Has enough space so that your washer doesn’t rest on its power cord.
See Choosing a proper location
on page 9.
Step 2: Connect the water hoses
1 Before connecting the water-inlet hose to the tap, remove the rubber washer
inside the water-inlet hose connector. Take the rubber washer with filter out of
the accessory bag and install it into the water-inlet hose connector.
Note: The water supply hoses aren’t supplied with your washer and must be
purchased separately.
CAUTIONS:
Use new water supply hoses. Using old hoses can result in leakage or overflow
that can damage your property.
Don’t connect multiple water supply hoses together to increase the length of
the hose. Hoses connected this way can leak and cause electrical shock. If a
hose is too short, replace the hose with a longer, high-pressure hose.

Washing a load of laundry
Step 1: Select a detergent
Your washer is designed to use high efficiency (HE) detergents.
For the best cleaning results, use an HE detergent. We recommend that you
don’t use a regular detergent. HE detergents contain suppressors that reduce
or eliminate suds. When fewer suds are produced, the load washes more
efficiently and cleaning is maximized.
Reducing the amount of detergent may reduce the quality of cleaning. Make
sure that you:
Pre-treat stains
Sort carefully by color and soil level
Avoid overloading
Step 2: Turn on your washer
Press the (power) button to turn on your washer.
1 Sort laundry by fabric type, soil level, color, and load size.
2 Fill the tub with dry, unfolded clothes. Load the tub no more than 3/4 full.
Step 3: Add detergent and additives to the compartments
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS on page 3 before operating your washer.
CAUTION:
Before loading your laundry, make sure that you remove coins, keys, and other
hard objects, and that you close zippers. These items may damage clothes.
Notes:
Overloading may reduce washing efficiency, cause excess wear, and possibly
cause creasing or wrinkling of the load.
Wash delicate items such as bras, hosiery, and other lingerie on the Delicates
cycle with similar lightweight items.
When washing big, bulky items (such as rugs or pillows) or a few smaller items
(such as stuffed toys or one or two sweaters) that don’t fill the tub completely,
add a few towels to improve spin performance.
Always use the Bulky cycle for bulky items.
When washing heavily soiled loads, don’t overload your washer.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Detergents
1 Pour the recommended amount of laundry detergent directly into the
detergent compartment before starting your washer.
2 If you’re using color-safe bleach or regular liquid bleach, add it to the bleach
compartment.
Fabric softener
Pour the recommended amount of liquid fabric softener into the softener
compartment. The dispenser automatically releases liquid fabric softener at
the correct time during the rinse cycle.
Notes:
When adding color-safe bleach with detergent, both laundry products must
be in the same form (liquid).
If you are using powder detergent, we recommend that you add it to the
bottom of the tub before you add the load or add it to the detergent
compartment.
CAUTIONS:
Use the softener compartment ONLY for liquid fabric softeners.
Don’t use the Downy Ball® in your washer.
We recommend that you don’t use liquid fabric softener that is too sticky
because it may not mix with the water sufficiently.

Pour the recommended amount of bleach into the bleach compartment.
Don’t over-fill the compartment.
Step 4: Select the appropriate cycle and options for the load
1 Turn the cycle selector to select a washing cycle. For information on wash
cycles, see Washer options and settings on page 33.
2 Optional: Use the control panel buttons (like Water Level) to customize
the washing cycle. For descriptions of selections, see Control panel on
page 13. For information about which buttons are available for each cycle
type, see Washer options and settings on page 33.
Step 5: Start your washer
1 Press the (start/pause) button.
2 If you need to pause the cycle (for example to add or remove items or adjust
the load), press the (start/pause) button. When you hear a click, open the
lid. Your washer stops. When you’re ready to resume washing, close the lid,
then press the button again.
CAUTIONS:
Avoid splashing or over-filling the compartment.
Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly onto the load or into the
tub. Doing so can damage fabrics, by weakening of the fibers or stripping the
color.
Notes: The bleach dispenser doesn’t have a water inlet to the bleach dispenser,
so the bleach directly flows into the tub when you pour it in.
Note: As the wash cycle moves from stage to stage, the current stage light
flashes and the finished progress (stage) light is off. The following stage lights
are always on.

Maintaining your washer
Cleaning the exterior
Use a soft cloth to wipe up all detergent, bleach, or other spills as they occur.
Cleaning the interior
Clean the interior of your washer periodically to remove any dirt, soil, odor,
mold, mildew, or bacterial residue that may remain in your washer as a result
of washing clothes.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in unpleasant conditions,
including odors or permanent stains in your washer or on your laundry.
To remove hard water deposits, use a cleaner labeled “Washer safe.”
Cleaning the control panel
Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Don’t use abrasive powders or cleaning pads.
Don’t spray cleaners directly on the panel. The control panel finish may be
damaged by some laundry pre-treatment soil and stain remover products.
Apply such products away from your washer and wipe up any spills or
over-spray immediately.
Cleaning the detergent, bleach, or softener compartment
To remove laundry product residue, wipe with a damp cloth and towel dry.
You can remove the detergent and softener compartments to clean them.
However, the bleach compartment isn’t removable, so you must flush the
compartment while it is in your washer.
Cleaning the tub
The Tub Clean cycle is a self-cleaning cycle that removes the causes of odors that
may occur inside your washer without using a cleaning agent. We suggest
cleaning the tub about once a month.
1 With the tub empty, add one cup of chlorine bleach to the bleach dispenser.
