Before Starting to Wash

U
• The temperature of the water impacts the effectiveness of all laundry additives and therefore, the cleaning results.
We recommend temperatures of:
- HOT 49~55°C…(120-140˚F) White items, diapers, underclothing and heavily soiled, colorfast items.
- WARM 29~40°C…(85-105˚F) Most items
- COLD* 18~24°C…(65-75˚F) Only very bright colors with light soil.
• When washing in COLD water additional steps may be needed:
- Pre dissolve Detergent in WARM water and add to the machine by hand.
- Pretreat spots and stains
- Soak heavily soiled items
- Use appropriate bleach
* Temperature below 18°C…(65˚F) will not activate laundry additives and may cause lint, residue, poor cleaning, etc.
In addition, Detergent manufactures and care labels define COLD water as 26~29°C…(80-85˚F).
If the temperature of the water in the tub is too cold for your hands, the Detergent will
not activate and clean effectively.
Water Temperature
Using Water
• The machine sets the appropriate temperature automatically according to the wash program .
• You can change the Water Temperature by pressing the WATER TEMP. button. (refer to page 14)
• This machine detects the quantity of laundry automatically, then sets the
WATER LEVEL and suggests an amount of Detergent.
• When you select a wash program, the WATER LEVEL and amount of
Detergent (to be used) will be shown on the control panel.
• The following table shows the amount of water.
• When the WATER LEVEL is automatically detected, it may differ depending
on the quantity of laundry even though the same WATER LEVEL is indicated
on the control panel. Therefore the water level may need to be manually increased
to suit the load type which may be bulky, but not heavy.
Amount of WATER LEVEL
Using the Dispenser Drawer
NOTE
If iron is present in the water the clothes may become an all-over yellow or they may be stained with brown or orange
spots or streaks. Iron is not always visible. Installation of water softener or an iron filter may be necessary for severe cases.
NOTE
[ Minimum water amount ]
Water level depends on laundry load and washer model.The washer detects the required minimum water level and will not start
washing until this water level is reached.The water will fill automatically via the inlet valves, however if water is manually
poured
into the tub via a bucket or similar vessel (NOT RECOMENDED), the washer will still detect this water and the wash cycle will
commence once the required water level is reached. NOTE :the cycle will not start until the lid is closed.
The dispenser drawer contains 2 compartments:
• Liquid Fabric Softener
• Low sudsing powder, High-Efficiency Detergent
The dispenser automatically dispenses additives at the proper time in the wash cycle.
1. Slowly open the dispenser drawer by pulling the drawer out until it stops.
2. After adding laundry products, slowly close the dispenser drawer. Closing the
drawer too quickly could result in early dispen
sing of additives.
• Avoid overfilling or splashing when adding laundry products to the dispenser. Doing
so could result in early dispensing of laundry products.
At the end of the cycle, you may see water in the compartments. This is part of the
normal operation of the washer.
NOTE
: Do not use bleach in the dispenser drawer. We also recommend the use of powdered detergents be used
in the dispenser draws. Liquid detergents can be added directly to the wash as the water is filling.
Powdered detergent is recommended for this function so that it does not dispense into the bowl prematurely.
