The main features of your front loading washer dryer and

Features

tips for good washing and drying results are described below. Please read them before using your machine.

Wind Iron

z High-speed airflow smoothes out wrinkles. Clothes are dried at lower

temperatures than with previous models, resulting in less shrinking of delicate clothes.

z Clothes move freely inside the big drum while drying. z A Jet Fan Motor generates the high-speed airflow, which blows through the

clothes to smooth out wrinkles.

Cleaning power

High-speed airflow

 3D Sensor Control Wash

z The 3D vibration sensor maximizes

the beat washing effect by controlling the drum rotation speed using a revolution sensor. (This function is used during the [FUZZY], [SPEEDY WASH & DRY], [SPEEDY], [HEAVY], [FAVORITE], and [SOFT] programs.)

Energy saving

 Heat Recycle Drying

Main motor

Heavy laundry

Jeans, sweatpants, etc.

Light laundry

Shirts, aprons, etc.

Eco Vent

Jet Fan

Increased drum rotation speed

Laundry does not lift. Improved beat washing

effect.

Decreased drum rotation speed

Laundry does not drop.

Recycled heat from the main motor

Heat generated from the main motor is transferred into the drum to raise the temperature.

Recycled heat from the Jet Fan

In addition to heat from the heater, compressed heat from the Jet Fan, which generates high-speed airflow, and heat from the Jet Fan Motor are used as hot air during drying.

Recycled heat via the Eco Vent

Air warmed by the main motor and heater enters the Eco Vent (open-close type inlet), which is set along the drying pipeline, and is reused as warm air during drying. (This function is not used during the [SILENT], [DRY (10 MIN)], and [DEODORANT] programs.)

Improved beat washing effect.

Tips for Good Washing Results

Preparing your laundry

Separate items for which lint is a concern,

or place them into a mesh laundry bag

z Place corduroy (or other long pile material) or dark

colored clothes, stockings, and other clothes on which lint may be noticeable in a commercially available mesh laundry bag with lint protection.

z When washing with other laundry, use the Water-

Injection Rinse function and the [RINSE (3 times)] or [RINSE (4 times)] operation.

Separate items that are likely to

bleed color

z Separate items that bleed

color easily, and wash items of similar color 2 to 3 pieces at a time.

Place small and delicate items

into a mesh laundry bag

z Place brassieres with wires into commercially

available mesh laundry bags made for brassieres.

z Place socks, handkerchiefs, and other small items into

commercially available mesh laundry bags made for general purposes. This is to prevent the items from getting caught between the inside of the door and the door bellows during operation.

Remove debris, dirt, sand, hair,

and pet fur

z Debris and foreign particles

may clog the drainage pipeline and drying pipeline, resulting in malfunction.

(Single pieces of laundry tend to gravitate to one side during the spin cycle and may not dry sufficiently. Wash them together with other items for which color transfer is not a concern.)

Remove all coins, hairpins, and objects

(including from pockets)

z These objects

may damage the laundry or cause malfunctions.

Remove matches, hairpins, coins, etc.

Treat stains as soon as possible

z Stains become harder to

remove as time passes. Partial cleaning of the stained area before wash may help remove them.

Tie all strings and close all

fasteners

z This is to prevent the

fasteners from damaging the laundry and causing malfunctions in the machine.

Separate items for which pilling or lint is

a concern, or turn them inside out

z Turn sweaters and other items for

which pilling is a concern inside out.

z Separate such items from towels,

bath towels, etc.

Tips for Good Washing Results

To prevent coarse textures

Items such as towels can feel coarse after washing due to flattened piles.

z Use a fabric softener. z Wash using the [SOFT] program.

(P.34)

z For items that feel coarse after drying,

run the [DRY] > [FUZZY] program for an additional 30 minutes. (P.39)

z Increase the number of rinse cycles. (P.55) z Use the Water-Injection Rinse function. (P.55) z Decrease the amount of detergent. (P.26, 27)

To rinse thoroughly

To prevent color bleeding and darkening (P.94)

z Separate items that are likely to bleed color when washing. z Use the recommended amounts of detergent and softener.

Ú Insufficient amounts of detergent or excessive amounts softener may result in darkening. Ú Using liquid detergent can result in darkening. Try using a powder detergent.

How to load the laundry into the drum

 Distribute the laundry evenly and avoid

concentration on one side.

 Place the laundry behind the 5-Ply Liquid

Load Balancer.

z Failure to do so may cause the laundry to get

caught between the door and the door bellows, resulting in damage to the laundry and the door bellows. Place smaller items into the back of the drum first, and then load the remaining laundry.

z We recommend using the

optional washing cap.

5-Ply Liquid Load Balancer

 Large items (sheets, cotton blankets, etc.), thick items (jeans,

sweatshirts, etc.), small loads, and mats of various types should be washed together with other laundry.

z Such items tend to gravitate to one side when washed alone, resulting in

excessive vibration and insufficient drying during the spin cycle. (P.79)

 When drying a small load of laundry (about

1kg or less), place a dry towel together with the laundry.

z Small loads of laundry may result in insufficient

drying. Placing a dry towel or similar item together with the laundry will reduce unevenness in drying.

 Do not overload the machine with laundry.

z Overflowing laundry may result in damage to the

laundry, door bellows, and plastic parts.

z It may also prolong drying times or produce uneven

washing and drying results.

Tips for Good Washing Results (continued)

To ensure smooth spinning operation

If laundry concentrates on one side, the machine will automatically even it out, prolonging the operation time and consuming more water in the process. In addition, excessive vibration may occur during the spin cycle, forcing the machine to stop during operation. Take note of the following to prevent this.

z Do not wash thick items (cotton blankets,

jeans, etc.) or items in mesh laundry bags alone.

Wash 2 to 3 thick items or mesh laundry bags at a time, or wash them together with other laundry.

z Place only delicate items (lingerie, brassieres,

stockings, etc.) and small items (socks, handkerchiefs, etc.) into the mesh laundry bags.

(P.18, 21)

Overstuffed bags may prevent smooth

spinning operation.

z Set the startup operation for spinning to

Smooth Mode. (P.68)

Tips for removing stains

z If a laundry item stains, soak the item in a 1:3 ratio solution of detergent and water.

Ú If the above treatment does not remove the stain, use the following types of commercially available bleaches.

z Bleach can be broadly classified into oxidizing types and reducing types. Oxidizing types can be

further classified into chlorine-based and peroxide-based. Do not use chlorine-based bleach, except in the [TUB CLEAN] program, as doing so may result in malfunction of the machine. Each type of bleach can and cannot be used for certain types of laundry as follows, so be sure to check the instructions on the bleach’s packaging for proper use beforehand.

• Oxidizing type

Peroxide-based: Can be used for colored or patterned clothes; powder type cannot be used for wool or silk.

• Reducing type

Can be used for yellowing caused by iron in water, rust stains, and yellowing in shirt collar linings caused by chlorine-based bleach. Cannot be used for colored and patterned clothes.

Detergent indicator

detergent, even for large wash loads.

The detergent indicator is delayed or does not appear.

Possible cause Solution

Did you load wet laundry?

z Moist or wet laundry may be detected as a

larger wash load.

Did you load a lot of thick items?

z Thick items may be detected as a larger wash

load due to their heavy weight.

Is the laundry concentrated on one side?

z If the laundry is concentrated on one side or

is tangled, the wash load cannot be properly detected and may be detected as smaller.

Did you load a lot of items made of polyester or other synthetic materials?

z Items made of polyester or other synthetic

materials may be detected as a smaller wash load due to their light weight.

z Wash load detection can take anywhere

between 30 seconds to 2 minutes. When you start an operation with water (about 3 L or more) already in the drum, or when you are using the [BL ANKET], [DELICATE], or [TUB CLEAN] program, the indicator does not appear.

This is not a malfunction.

Troubleshooting

This is not a malfunction.

The remaining

Remaining time indicator

time indicator blinks after spin operations.

The remaining time indicator is longer than the set spinning time.

The remaining time indicator displayed immediately after the operations starts is longer than the previous time the operation was used.

Possible cause Solution

z Operations may extend 1 to 2 hours after the

“10 minutes remaining” indicator appears. This occurs automatically when the machine detects that the laundry is not sufficiently dry.

Is the Tangle-Free Finish function set?

z This indicator display occurs during the

untangle process after spin operations.

Are you running the [SOFT] program?

z This indicator display occurs while warm air is

blowing onto laundry during spin operations.

z In addition to the actual operation time, the

remaining time indicator also includes the time used for the correction of uneven laundry distribution, the acceleration of the drum, etc.

z If the water pressure was low during the

previous operation (i.e., the water supply was slow), the displayed time will be extended to compensate for the longer water supply time.

z Is the water supply inlet’s filter clogged? Clean the water supply inlet. (P.77)

This is not a malfunction.
