INSTALLATION

Basic location requirements

Electrical

• Volt 60 Hz 15 AMP fuse or circuit breaker.
• Individual branch circuit serving only your Washer is recommended.
• Your washer is equipped with a power cord.

CAUTION

Never use an extension cord.

Grounding

Electrical grounding is required for this appliance.

• 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 power cord having a three-prong grounding plug for use in a properly installed and grounded outlet.
• The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance

WARNING

An improperly connected equipment- grounding conductor can increase the risk of electrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are not sure whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance – if it does not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Important safety precautions

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. It is the personal responsibility of the appliance owner to provide adequate electrical service for this appliance.

CAUTION

Never connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or hot water pipes.

Water

To correctly fill your Washer in the proper amount of time, water pressure of 20 to psi (137 to 800 kPa) is required. Water pressure less than 20 psi may cause water valve failure, or may not allow the water valve to shut off completely, or may extend the fill time beyond what your Washer controls allow, causing your Washer to turn off. A time limit is built into the controls to prevent flooding in your home if a hose becomes loose.

The water faucets must be within 4 feet (122 cm) to the back of your Washer to match the inlet hoses provided with your Washer.

NOTE

Accessory inlet hoses are available in various lengths up to 10 feet (275 cm) for faucets that are further away from the back of your washer. To avoid the possibility of water damage:

• Have water faucets easily accessible.
• Turn off faucets when the washer is not in use.
• Periodically check that there is no leakage from the water inlet hose fittings.

Drain facility

The recommended height of the standpipe is 39 in (99 cm). The drain hose must be routed through the drain hose clip to the standpipe. The standpipe must be large enough to accept the outside diameter of the drain hose. The drain hose is attached to the washer at the factory.

Flooring

• For best performance, you must install your washer on a solidly constructed floor. Wood floors may need to be reinforced to minimize vibration and/or unbalanced load situations. Carpeting and soft tile surfaces are contributing factors to vibration which can cause your washer to move slightly during the spin cycle.
• Never install your washer on a platform or weakly supported structure.

Location considerations

Do not install your washer in areas where water may freeze, since your washer will always retain some water in its water valve, pump, and hose areas. Frozen water can damage the belts, the pump, hoses, and other components.

Alcove or closet installation

Minimum clearances for closet and alcove installations:

If the washer and dryer are installed together, the closet front must have at least a 72 in2 (465 cm2) unobstructed air opening.

Your washer alone does not require a specific air opening.

Required dimensions for Installation

Step-by-step installation

STEP 1 Selecting a location

Before you install the washer, make sure the location:

• Has a hard, level surface without carpeting or flooring that may obstruct ventilation.
• Is away from direct sunlight.
• Has adequate ventilation.
• Is not exposed to freezing temperatures (temperatures under 32 °F or 0 °C).
• Is away from heat sources such as oil or gas.
• Has enough space so that the washer doesn’t rest on its power cord.

STEP 2 Connecting the water supply hose

CAUTION Before installing the water supply hoses, make sure there are rubber gaskets (B) inside the couplings (A) at both ends of each new water hose. Installing the water supply hoses without rubber gaskets can cause water leakage. When you initially install the washer, be sure to use new hoses. Failing to do so may result in a water leakage or overflow and may damage your property. Do not connect multiple water supply hoses together to increase the length of the supply hose. Hoses connected this way can leak and the leakage can cause electrical shock. If a hose is too short, replace the hose with a longer, high pressure hose.

Connect the ends of the water supply hoses to the hot and cold faucets. Tighten the fittings by hand until they are snug, and then tighten them an additional two-thirds of a turn with a plier. CAUTION When you fasten the fittings, do not fasten them too tightly or apply tape or sealant to the faucets or water supply intakes. This can damage the fittings. NOTE After you have connected the water supply hoses to the faucets, ensure that they are connected correctly by pulling the water supply hoses downwards.

3. Place the unconnected ends of the hoses into a bucket and open the faucets connected to the two water supply hoses for 10 or 15 seconds to remove any foreign substances from the hoses. Close the faucets before continuing.

Connect the ends of the water supply hoses to the water supply intake connections at the back of the washer. CAUTION The water supply hose connected to the hot faucet must be connected to the hot water supply intake and the water hose connected to the cold faucet must be connected to the cold water supply intake.

Tighten the fittings by hand until they are snug, and then tighten them an additional two-thirds of a turn with a plier. NOTE To ensure the correct water usage, connect both the hot and cold water faucets. If either or both are not connected, an “4C” (no fill) code can be displayed. NOTE If you do not want to use the hot water supply hose, insert the water intake cap into the hot water supply intake hole. In this case, you must select the Tap Cold for the water temperature. If you select the Tap Cold, all the lamps for the water temperature options are turned off. CAUTION Confirm that the water supply hoses are not twisted or bent. If the hoses are twisted or bent, the hoses can leak and cause electric shock due to the water leakage. Turn on the hot and cold water supplies and check all the water supply intake connections and the faucets for water leaks.

STEP 3 Connecting the drain hose

The end of the drain hose can be positioned in three ways: In a Wall standpipe or Floor standpipe The height of end of standpipe must be no lower than 39 in (99 cm) and no higher than 96 in (245 cm). If drain pipe are built into the wall with water valves (A), fasten the drain hose to the water hose. NOTE Make sure that the connection between the drain hose and the standpipe is not airtight. In a laundry tub The height of the tub must be no lower than 39 in (99 cm) and no higher than 96 in (cm). Assemble the supplied Hose guide at the end of the drain hose, and put the hanger on laundry tub. And fasten the drain hose to the leg of laundry tub.

NOTE Connect the hose guide (A) within 3~5 in (7.6-12.7 cm)* from the end of the drain hose. If the drain hose is extended beyond the end of the hose guide, mold or microorganisms could spread inside the washer. NOTE The drain hose can be installed to a 96 in (245 cm) maximum, but the draining capability can be reduced at this height. It can cause the washer to have an odor because of remaining water in the drain system. NOTE If the drain hose is installed below 39 in (99 cm), water can be drained in cycles due to a siphon phenomenon. It causes the washer to display “4C”.

STEP 4 Leveling your washer

See if the washer is level by checking the position of the tub: Slide the washer into position. Open the lid of the washer, and pour the water into the tub to just below the pulsator level.

3. If the washer is level, the pulsator (A) is positioned at the center of the water as shown in the figure. If not, level your washer by turning the front leveling feet clockwise or counterclockwise as necessary. NOTE Turn the front leveling feet clockwise (B) to lower the washer, and counterclockwise (C) to raise the washer.

STEP 5 Powering your washer

Plug the power cord into a 3-prong, well grounded 120 volt 60 Hz approved electrical outlet protected by a 15-amp fuse or comparable circuit breaker. Your washer is grounded through the third prong of the power cord when plugged into a three-prong grounded electrical outlet. Test run Make sure that you install your washer correctly by running the Rinse+Spin after the installation is complete.

STEP 6 Running a test cycle

Run a test cycle as follows to check if your washer is properly installed.

1. Load about 6 pounds of laundry into the tub.
2. Press POWER to turn on your washer.
3. Select Rinse+Spin by turning the Cycle Selector.
4. Press START/PAUSE to start the test cycle.
5. The washer should not rock or vibrate excessively when water is supplied or when washing or spinning, and should drain well during the spin cycle.

NOTE

• If water leaks while water is being supplied or drained, check the water connections.
• If the washer rocks and vibrates excessively, level your washer again.

STEP 7 Run calibration (recommended)

ATC (Auto Temperature Control)

ATC is the control function that the washer controls water temperature with temperature sensor (thermistor).

• Because there are numerous water temperatures depending on the customer’s environments (cold areas, warm areas, various water temperatures, settings of heater temperature, etc.), ATC function in our washer maintains the certain level of wash temperature to output the best washing performance at each cycle.
• If you select NORMAL cycle, this cycle is the regulation and UL cycle. Since new washers must reduce the amount of energy usage as a first priority, customers will notice more cold water entering the washer. But, this is normal, not a problem.
• In those regulation cycles, Hot temperature is similar to acceptable adult bath-water temperature and warm temperature is similar to comfortable swimming-pool water temperature.
• If customers want to wash clothes in specific water temperatures, customers should choose a different cycle at each temperature (Hot/Warm/Eco Warm).

Features

Automatic dispenser

Your washer has separate compartments for dispensing detergent and color-safe bleach and fabric softener. Add all laundry additives to their respective compartments before starting your washer.

The automatic dispenser must always be in place before you start your washer.

DO NOT open the automatic dispenser when your washer is running.

NOTE

• Never exceed the manufacturer’s recommendations when adding detergent.
• This compartment holds liquid detergent for the main wash cycle, which is added to the load at the beginning of the cycle.
• When using powdered detergent, remove the liquid detergent compartment from the detergent drawer. The washer will not dispense powdered detergent from the liquid detergent compartment.

To add detergent to the automatic dispenser:

Open the dispenser drawer. Load the recommended amount of liquid or powder) detergent into the detergent compartment before you start your wash. Close the drawer slowly and smoothly to avoid spilling, splashing, or premature dispensing of the contents. NOTE It is normal for a small amount of water to remain in the dispenser compartments at the end of the cycle. Do not put chlorine bleach in the dispenser drawer.

Loading the Liquid (or Powder) detergent compartment

Pour the recommended amount of laundry detergent directly into the detergent compartment before starting your washer. If you are using color-safe bleach, add it with the detergent to the detergent compartment. NOTE When adding color-safe bleach with detergent, it is best if both laundry products are in the same form – liquid. When using powdered detergent, remove the liquid detergent compartment (A) from the detergent drawer. The washer will not dispense powdered detergent from the liquid detergent compartment.

Loading the Bleach compartment

CAUTION Use the liquid chlorine bleach only. Add chlorine (bleach to the bleach compartment (B). DO NOT exceed the bleach compartment. NOTE Avoid splashing or over–filling the compartment. Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly onto the load or into the tub. It is a powerful chemical and can cause fabric damage, such as weakening of the fibers or color loss, if not used properly. If you prefer to use color–safe, add it to the appropriate detergent compartment. DO NOT pour color–safe bleach into the Bleach compartment.

Loading the fabric softener compartment

1. Pour the recommended amount of liquid fabric softener into the softener compartment (C). For smaller loads, use less than one capful.
2. Dilute the fabric softener with water until it reaches MAX FILL in the compartment.
3. The dispenser automatically releases liquid fabric softener at the proper time during the rinse cycle.

NOTE

• Use the softener compartment ONLY for liquid fabric softeners.
• DO NOT use the Downy Ball* in the fabric softener compartment with this washer. It will not add fabric softener at the appropriate time.
• Do not use liquid fabric softener that is too sticky as it may not mix with the water sufficiently.

MAINTENANCE
