DO NOT CUT OR REMOVE THE GROUNDING PLUG. If you do not have
a three-prong electric receptacle outlet in the wall, have a certified electrician
install the proper receptacle. The wall receptacle MUST be properly grounded.
20. Hydrogen gas may be produced if the water heater has not been used in more
than 2 weeks. This could be explosive under certain circumstances. If this is the
case, before using this appliance turn on all the hot faucets and let the hot water
run for a few minutes. This will let the trapped hydrogen escape. During this
process do not turn on an electric appliance, smoke, light a match/lighter or use
a flame to avoid an accident, as hydrogen gas is flammable and can explode.
21. Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in,
or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive
substances, as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
22. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing
unless specifically recommended in the user-repair instructions that you
understand and have skills to carry out.
23. Do not use heat dry for articles containing foam rubber or similarly textured

Loading
• Load each item loosely.
• Seperate the white and colored clothes. Separate heavy clothes from
light clothes.
• Carefully check all pockets and cuffs for small items. They can easily slide into the
tub and damage the tub.
• Pre-treat all stains and heavily soiled areas for best results.
• Do not overload your washer.
• Close the door properly after loading clothes.
Proper Use of Dispenser
The detergent/softener dispenser is located on the upper left corner
of the washer. Open the dispenser by pulling it out. You will see that there
are three compartments.
1. Prewashing Detergent
2. Detergent
3. Softening Agent
Proper Use of Fabric Softener:
• Pour liquid fabric softener into compartment as recommended by
the manufacturer.
• Do not exceed the level in the compartment to avoid overflow.
Warning: • Never pour fabric softener directly onto clothes because it will stain
your clothes or you may get spots on your clothes.
• Do not use powder form of softener into dispenser, or it will clog up
the dispenser. This dispenser is only designed for liquid form.
Proper Use of Detergent:
When pre-wash cycle is selected do not use liquid detergent.
Low-Sudsing detergent is recommended for front load style washers. This type of
detergent prevents damage to your washing machine, which may be caused by
excess amount of suds entering the condensing compartment.
Note:You can use less or more detergent depending on the size of the load, water
type in your area whether it is soft or hard and whether the clothes are heavily soiled or lightly soiled. Besides the performance of the
washing machine, the quality of the detergent also effects the
washing result. Do not use liquid detergent in compartments 1 and 2.

Moving & Vacationing
• Turn off water supply faucets and disconnect hoses. Drain water from all hoses.
This will prevent from damaging due to water leakage if the hoses accidentally get
ruptured or they become loose.
• Unplug the electrical cord from the wall outlet.
• Check if unit is plugged in. The plug may have come loose.
• Check if the electrical wall outlet is of proper voltage.
• Check if the circuit breaker needs to be reset or if the fuse needs to be replaced.
• Check if the unit is in "Off" or “Pause” mode.
• Check if the washer is overloaded: load may need to be re-balanced and clothes
may need to be redistributed.
• Check if the door is open. You may have to close the door properly.
Problems with water:
• Not enough water coming out: Water faucet may need to be turned on fully.
Water hoses may be tangled up or wrinkled up. Straighten up hoses.
• Water temperature is incorrect: Check your water heater temperature. Hot water
needs to be at a temperature at least 120˚F -140˚F (49˚C – 60˚C). Check to
make sure the inlet hoses are properly connected. (e.g. hot to hot & cold to cold)
• Water leaks: This is due to not properly installing drain hose or fill hoses. Your
home drain may be clogged or having constant water pressure. You may need to
tighten hoses; check the plumbing or call a plumber.
• Water will not drain: This is due to not installing your drain hose properly.
You may need to connect the drain hose properly. Check the position of the drain
hose. In order to drain properly, make sure that top of drain outlet is less than
2'6" above the floor.
Washer is making noise:
• Washer may need to be reinstalled. (Check washer installation section.)
• Washer load may need to be re-balanced, as the load may be uneven.
• Coins, loose change, buttons or other heavy objects could make noise
(read Operating Guide – Normal Operating Sounds).
• Squealing Sound: Due to overloaded wash tub.
• Vibration Noise: Due to not leveling washer properly on the floor and uneven
distribution of clothes in the tub.
Problems with clothes:
• Clothes are too wrinkled: This is due to improper sorting, overloading and
washing in too hot water repeatedly. Avoid overloading and resort your load.
Do not mix heavy clothes such as work clothes with light clothes such as blouses,
light shirts and delicate items. You may need to wash in warm or cold water.
• Soap residue: Detergent may not be dissolving in water. Check water
temperature. Use less detergent.
