20. This appliance must be connected to proper electrical outlet with the correct
electrical supply.
21. Proper grounding must be ensured to reduce the risk of shock and fire. 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.

Understanding Your "Front Load" Washer
This style of washer is gentler on your laundry because it has a tumble wash action
and there is no agitator to damage your clothes. Since there is no agitator in this
style of washer, the washer runs quietly. This style of washer is designed to save you
money. It uses less water and detergent to clean your laundry.
OPERATIONS
Power Button:
• Push the button in to have your washer "ON". The light will turn on indicating that power is "ON". Push the button out to have your washer
"OFF". The light will go off indicating that power is "OFF".
Load Rinse Level Selector Button:
• Push the button in if you want to reduce water usage during the rinse
cycle. Push the button out if you want maximum water usage during the
rinse cycle.
Note: Half=Minimum Water Rinse
Full=Maximum Water Rinse
English
Spin Cycle Selector Button:
• If you want to extract more water from your clothes during the wash cycle,
push the button out. Clothes will be drier when this option is selected.
• If you do not want to extract water from your clothes using the spin cycle,
push the button in. If this option is selected, only the excess water in the tub
will drain leaving the clothes wet.
Advantages of Non-Spin Cycle:
• The spin cycle may cause excessive creasing and wrinkling in some fabrics.
• High speed spin might be too strong for delicate garments. It could result in
stretching or excessive wear.
Note: When the spin cycle is in the OFF position, the machine will not
automatically go to the spin dry function.
