Trouble-shooting Answers to question
When the remained water is frozen
If the laundries fall to the outer side of the spin tub, please take them out immediately.
1.Dismantle As indicated in the figure, push the point marked with " " to pull the spin tub frame to oblique upwards to dismantle it.
2.Install After install the back edge of the spin tub frame to proper position, push the four points marked with " " by force to reset it. Please check carefully. The laundries may fall to the
lower part of the outer side of the spin tub (as indicated in the figure). If the laundries fall to the outer side of the spin tub, during spinning the draining will get blocked and the rotation speed of the spin tub is reduced.

Below 50
Prevent the freezing (be sure to discharge the water completely after using) After complete draining, set the "DRAIN SELECTOR" at "OFF" . If it is set at "DRAIN", it will be rather difficult for the frozen water to melt.
When the water is frozen Pour hot water below 50 into the wash tub to soak it completely. Then turn the pulsator with hands gently. Please confirm the drainage can work normally before next using.
