Before You Start Washing
Preparation of the laundry
Remove any foreign objects (coins, safety pins, etc.). Put delicate clothes (knits, lingerie, etc.) in a net. Remove large lumps of lint, mud, sand, hair, and pet hair from laundry. Tie strings and close fasteners.
Sorting the laundry
Detergents and additives
Sort laundry according to the type of fabric and care label symbols
(cottons, blended fabrics, synthetics, wool, hand washable items, etc.).
Do not wash extremely small loads, such as only a pair of jeans.
The clothes may become off balance and cause abnormal vibration during the
spin cycle.
Separate colored and white items.
Risk of injury!
Do not wash the following items, through which water does not flow easily,
because doing so creates abnormal vibration during the spin cycle and could
cause injury or malfunction. Waterproof items, such as a wet suit, ski suit,
shower curtain, etc. Items with non-slip rubber backing, such as door mats.
Cushions, pillows, shoes, etc.
Use an appropriate amount of detergent according to the water level on
the washing machine. The type and amount of detergent depend on the type of
fabric, volume, load size, degree of soiling, and hardness of the water used.
Use less detergent if: The load is small. The laundry is not very dirty.
Too much detergent can result in excess foam, which reduces rinse
efficiency or may cause a water leak.
Depending on the detergent brand, detergent may not dissolve
completely in the Detergent Dispenser if the water pressure is low or
the water is too cold. Page 22: Care and Maintenance
When using softeners or bleaches, follow the instructions on the
package.
Detergent remained in drain route may be caused by quality of water
or type of detergent. In case of repeatedly using under this condition, it
may cause washer trouble.

overcome by using detergent dissolved in 1 litre warm water. Pour the solution
over the
clothes in the tub prior to the starting operation. Page 22: Care and
Maintenance
When using softeners or bleaches, follow the instructions on the package.
Scrud is
the waxy build-up that can occur within washing machines using fabric softener
and
washing powder. This build-up is not caused by the washing machine. If Scrud
is
allowed to build-up it can result in stains on your clothes or an unpleasant
smell.
Detergent remained in drain route may be caused by quality of water or type of
detergent. In case of repeatedly using under this condition, it may cause
washer trouble.
This washing machine has wash cycles that are designed to use less water. Low-
sudsing detergent must be used if the machine is to work as designed.

List of Programs
The wash time and the spin time may change during the program depending on the
weight and type
of laundry being washed.
The required times are guidelines. More time may be required than is noted
here depending on the
water pressure and the type of laundry.
Programs cannot be changed after they are started. To change them, turn the
power off and then on
again, then select a program.
When the Auto Self Clean function is running, about 15 more minutes and 14
more liters of water are
needed.
We do not recommend using fabric softener when the Water Save program is
selected. The Water Save program cycle is the recommended program cycle for a
medium soiled load of
laundry at the rated capacity.
Spin Shower Rinse* is used in the Fuzzy program to enhance water-saving
performance without
compromising the efficiency of rinsing.
- Spin Shower Rinse: A powerful shower and centrifugal force rinse out detergent more effectively.
The clear part of the lid and control panel may become foggy or may form dew on the edge of lid if
you use hot water to wash your laundry, however, this is not abnormal. Wipe it off after washing your
laundry.
It has the potential not to be enough for max load according to the kind of clothes. Even if you set the delay timer, it may start soon according to the required time of the program. Water flow is adjusted automatically according to the amount of load and water level. When loads are
heavy and water level are high, water flow is adjusted at slower rate to maintain the performance of
washer.
Amount of detergent is indicated according to following table as a guide.

- Detergent is based on a single 35-gram scoop of powder detergent. The amount of detergent is based on a type of 20-gram per 30-liter. Since the required amount of detergent varies depending on the type of detergent, follow the instructions on the package of detergent.
If the laundry is small (less than 60 L), please put the detergent directly in the tub.

Water is added again
Water is added automatically up to the set water level if the water
during the washing process level falls because water is absorbed by the laundry.
Wash time is longer than the time that was set manually
If the water pressure is low, the operating time may increase due to a longer water supply time.
The washing machine stops during the spin cycle and starts adding water
If the laundry is extremely off balance when the spin cycle starts, the spin cycle stops and the rinse cycle starts to rebalance the laundry. After the load is rebalanced, the spin cycle starts again.

How to Install the Washing Machine
Safety precautions
Where to install the washing machine
Do not use a damaged power plug, doing so is dangerous. Contact a
repair center that is certified by the manufacturer to replace the plug.
If the outlet you are using is a 2-pin outlet, use an adapter to change
from three pins to two pins. If you do this, be sure to connect an earth
wire. There is a risk of electric shock if you do not connect an earth
wire.
Do not connect an earth wire to a gas pipe, telephone wire, water pipe,
or lightning rod. Remove the power plug from the electric outlet when
you are attaching an earth wire.
You do not need to attach an earth wire if the electric outlet is a 3-pin
type with earth terminal.
The hoses may be damaged or rupture if they freeze. Do not install the
washing machine outside or any other place where there is a risk of
freezing.
Install the washing machine on a solid level floor to avoid excessive
vibration and noise.
Do not install the washing machine in an extremely humid place, such
as a bathroom or a place exposed to rain.
Do not install the washing machine in a slippery or unstable location.
Doing so could cause abnormal vibration.
Install the washing machine away from walls as shown below to avoid
abnormal noise and vibration.
