tHe FIRst RADICAL teCHnoLoGY AnD
AIR BUBBLe WAsHInG sYsteM In tHe WoRLD

• Your washer is adopted the Radical
Technology that can sterilize your
clothes and deodorize a bad smell
and prevent discoloration.

• Your washer is equipped with the
bubble generator that generates a
great deal of air bubble.

• The air bubbles knock the dirt out
of the clothes during wash and they
push up the heavy dirt to remove it
during rinse.

• Because the double washing
method using both air bubble &
water current is applied to this
washer, wash efciency is excellent
in comparison with the original
washer system.

Economic wash system

With articial intelligence, the washer uses
minimum energy and water by selecting
optimal water level and washing time.

Low noise system

The washer minimizes the washing and
spinning noises by sensing the amount of
laundry.

Child-lock

The Child-Lock system is adopted to
prevent children from pressing any button to
change the program during operation.

3. InstALLAtIon InstRUCtIons (CONT’D)

Level floor

• Allowable slope under entire washer
is 1°.

• To minimize noise and vibration, the
washer MUST be installed on a solidly
constructed oor.

• Carpeting and soft tile surfaces are not
recommended.

• Never install the washer on a platform or
weakly supported structure

NOTE

A rm, solid oor is even more critical
to a front-loading washer than to a top­loader. If your oor is wood and/or frame
construction, you may need to reinforce it.
Front-loaders use substantially faster spin
speeds than top-loaders, causing greater
vibration. If the oor is not solid, your washe
will vibrate. You will hear and feel the
vibration throughout your house.

Power outlet

• Must be within 60 in. (1.5 m) of either
side of the washer. Do not overload the
outlet with more than one appliance.

• Time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is
recommended.

NOTE

It is the personal responsibility and
obligation of the customer to have a proper
outlet installed by a qualied electrician.

Minimum installation spacing for
recessed area installation.

The following dimensions shown are for the
minimum spacing allowed.

Additional spacing should be considered for
installation and servicing.

• Additional clearances might be required
for wall, door and oor moldings.

• Additional spacing of 1 in. (2.5 cm) on all
sides of the washer is recommended to
reduce noise transfer. (Fig.9)

Companion appliance spacing should also
be considered.

4.2 Loading

• Drop items into washer loosely. Items
should move easily through wash
water for best cleaning and wrinkle-free
results.

• Load washer properly and select correct
load size setting. Overloading and
selecting a setting too small for the wash
load can :

• Cause poor cleaning

• Increase wrinkling

• Create excessive lint

• Wear out items faster

(because of pilling)

• Mix large and small items in each load.
Load evenly to maintain washer balance.
An unbalanced load can make the
washer vibrate during spin.

• Reduce wash time when using a small
load size setting. Load with only a few
small items needs less wash time.

• Use a large load size setting to reduce
wrinkling with permanent press clothes
and some synthetic knits.
These items should have more room
to move in the water than heavy items.
(towels, jeans)

4.3 Adding detergent

1. Detergent case (Fig.10) 2. Adding fabric softener

• If desired, add measured liquid fabric
softener to the softener inlet.

• Pour liquid fabric softener into
the dispenser using the amount
recommended on the package.

• Do not exceed the maximum ll line.
Overlling can cause early dispensing
of the fabric softener which could stain
clothes.

• Do not open the detergent case when
water is supplied.

• Avoid pouring fabric softener directly on
the clothes.
