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.
22. Hydrogen gas may be produced if the water heater has not been used in
more then 2 weeks. This could be explosive and can explode under
certain circumstances. If this is the case, before using the washer 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.

Normal Operating Sounds
The following sounds are normally heard during the
operation of the washer:

Lint Filter
• A self-cleaning lint filter works throughout the wash cycle to
constantly remove lint and other residue from the water. It is located
between the outer and inner tub. As water passes from the outer tub to
the inner tub, water is forced through the bottom of the lint filter.
The filter catches lint and holds it until the spin cycle begins.
During the spin cycle, due to automatic centrifugal force of the
machine it removes the lint by pulling it off the bottom of the filter
and washing it down the drain.
Note: It does not require any maintenance or special cleaning.
Safety Lid Switch
• If for any reason you open the lid in the middle of the wash cycle, the
washer will not spin and will shut off automatically. Once the lid is
closed, the washer will start back on.

cleaning products, always read and follow manufacturer’s instructions
and warnings to avoid personal injury or product damage.
Cleaning and Maintenance

Troubleshooting
Washer does not operate:
• Check if unit is plugged in. The plug may have come loose.
• Check if the electrical wall receptacle 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” mode.
• Check if the washer is overloaded: load may need to be
re-balanced and clothes may need to be redistributed.
• Check if the lid is open. You may have to close the lid properly.
• Check if the control knob is set properly. You may have to
adjust the control knob.
• The washer pauses in some cycles. This is normal in delicate or
hand-washable cycle, which has short soak period where your clothes
are being soaked for very short period of time. You will not hear washer
operation for a short period of time. When the soak time is over,
it will start automatically.
English
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. Check water level selection, it may need to be readjusted.
• 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 pumped out before the cycle is completed: It happens if you open
the lid in the middle of cycle.
• 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 4 ft. (1.2 m) above the floor.

English
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.
• Have soap residue: detergent may not be dissolving in water. Check
water temperature or you need to add detergent as wash tub is being
filled with water before you load your clothes to avoid soap
residue on clothes.
• Spots or stains on your clothes: this is due to incorrect use of fabric
softener. You may need to read proper instructions on the container
and follow proper directions for using the softener.
• Clothes are grayed or yellowed: this is due to not pouring enough
detergent for large loads. You may have to add more detergent
to the load.
15
• Clothes are ripped & have holes/excessive wear & tear: this is due to
sharp objects such as pins and belt buckles left in pockets. You will need
to remove small loose sharp objects. Fasten belts, zippers, metal snaps
etc. Check if you are using undiluted bleach. Never add undiluted
bleach to wash.
