DIRECT DRIVE SYSTEM
The advanced Brushless DC motor directly drives the drum without using a belt and pulley.
TILTED DRUM AND EXTRA LARGE DOOR OPENING
The tilted drum and extra large opening make it possible to load and unload clothing more easily.
ULTRA CAPACITY
The larger drum enables more tumbling action and greater centrifugal force, but also less tangling and wrinkling of the laundry. Heavier loads, such as king size comforters, blankets, and curtains, can be washed.
SEE-THROUGH DOOR AND BIG DOOR
You can see the laundry throughout the cycle.
MAGNETIC DOOR PLUNGER
Safely and conveniently secure the door slightly ajar with the magnetic door plunger. This will promote air circulation and allow the interior of the machine to dry. To use this feature, after the load has been removed, do not close the door completely. When the magnetic door plunger comes into contact with the metal washer cabinet, it will secure the door slightly open allowing the interior of the washer to dry.

For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, injury to persons, or death.
BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the washer, follow basic precautions, including the following:
Read all instructions before using the washer.
Do not wash 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.
Do not add gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances to the wash water. These substances give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for 2 weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period, before using the washing machine, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.
Do not allow children to play on or in the washer. Close
supervision of children is necessary when the washer is used near children.
Before the washer is removed from service or discarded,
remove the door to prevent children from hiding inside.
• Do not install or store the washer where it will be exposed
to the weather.
• Do not tamper with the controls.
• Do not repair or replace any part of the washer or attempt
any servicing unless specifically recommended in the user-maintenance instructions or published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.
• See Installation Instructions for grounding requirements.
• ALWAYS follow the fabric care instructions supplied by the
garment manufacturer.
• Do not place items exposed to cooking oil in your washer.
Items contaminated with cooking oils may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch fire.
• Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static
unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Checking and choosing the proper location
Install the washing machine on a solid floor that is strong and rigid enough to support the weight of the washing machine, even when fully loaded, without flexing or bouncing. If the floor has too much flex, you may need to reinforce it to make it more rigid. If the floor is not solid, it may cause severe vibration and noise.
Clean the floor before installation.
1
- Make sure to select solid and smooth ground.
Two or more people are needed for moving and
2
unpacking the washing machine.
Allow for sufficient space between the walls and the

NOTE
The floor must be strong and rigid enough to support the weight of the washer, when fully loaded, without flexing or bouncing. If your floor has too much flex, you may need to reinforce it to make it more rigid. A floor that is adequate for a top-loading washer may not be rigid enough for a front loading washer, due to the difference in the spin speed and direction. If the floor is not solid, your washer may vibrate and you may hear and feel the vibration throughout your house.
• Before installing the washer, make sure the floor is
clean, dry and free of dust, dirt, water and oils so the washer feet can not slide easily. Leveling feet that can move or slide on the floor can contribute to excess vibration and noise due to poor contact with the floor.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Leveling the washing machine
The washer tub of your new washing machine spins at very high speeds. To minimize vibration, noise, and unwanted movement, the floor must be perfectly level and solid.
Check the washing machine’s level.
1
- Check the precise level by rocking the top edges of the washing machine or placing a level on the washing machine. The slope beneath the washing machine must not exceed 1°, and all four leveling feet must rest firmly on the floor.
Turn the lower leveling feet clockwise to level the washing
2
machine.
- Turning the lower leveling feet clockwise raises the washing machine.
Level
Check the washing machine’s level again.
4
- Push or rock the top edges of the washing machine gently to make sure that the washing machine does not rock.
- If the washing machine rocks, repeat steps 1 to 3.
WARNING
• Using the washing machine without leveling, it may re­sult in malfunction caused by the production of excess vibration and noise.
Use the leveling feet only when you level the washing machine. If you raise the leveling feet unnecessarily, it
may cause abnormal vibration of the washing machine.
Using non-skid pads (optional)
If you install the washing machine on a slippery surface, it may move because of excessive vibration. Incorrect leveling may cause malfunction through noise and vibration. In the event of this, lay the non-skid pads under the leveling feet and adjust the level.
Clean the floor to attach the non-skid pads.
1
- Use a dry rag to remove and clean foreign objects or moisture. If moisture remains, the non-skid pads may slip.
Raise
Turn the locknuts counterclockwise and tighten them
3
when the washing machine is level.
Tighten all 4 lock
nuts securely using
the wrench.
Adjust the level after placing the washing machine in the
2
installation area.
Place the adhesive side of the non-skid pad on the floor.
3
- It is most effective to install the non-skid pads under the front legs. If it is hard to place the pads under the front legs, place them under the back legs.

- Push or rock the top edges of the washing machine gently to make sure that the washing machine does not rock. If the washing machine rocks, level the washing machine again.
PREPARATION
Precautions for fabric care before wash cycle
Read and observe the following to prevent shrinkage or damage to clothes.
PREPARATION
17
Check all pockets to make sure that they are empty.
u
-Items such as clips, matches, pens, coins, and keys can damage both your washer and your clothes.
Close zippers, hooks, and drawstrings to prevent these
u
items from snagging or tangling on other clothes.
Pretreat heavily stained areas before washing.
u
- Doing so will produce clean, stain-free results.
Combine large and small items in a load. Load large items
u
first.
Large items should not be more than half of the total
u
washload.
The washer can be fully loaded, but the drum should not be
u
tightly packed with items.
-The door of the washer should close easily.
Do not wash single items, except for bulky items such as
u
blankets. Make sure to wash laundry in similar types of loads.
- Washing a single small item may result in the tub becoming unbalanced, vibrating and making a noise.
Brush heavy soil, dust, or hair off fabrics before washing.
u
- Laundry may not wash clean if there is dirt or sand on the fabrics, or they may damage due to particles rubbing against sheer fabrics.
Wash blankets individually.
u
- Washing more than one blanket together may produce unclean results due to tangling or an unbalanced load.
Always separate fabrics according to their colors and wash
u
them separately to prevent colors from running.
- Fabrics may damage or become stained due to fabric dyes running, or due to foreign objects transferring from one fabric to another.
Do not wash waterproof clothes.
u
- This may cause abnormal vibration, or may cause the load to bounce, which could damage the tub.
Check if there are any other foreign objects in the door seal
u
and take extra care that clothes do not get caught there.
- Foreign objects in the door seal may stain clothes, and water may leak if clothes get caught in the door seal.
Wash underwear or small, light items in a laundry net.
u
- Small, light items may get caught in the door seal, and a brassiere hook may damage other items or the tub.

Recommended detergent
Make sure to use HE (High-Efficiency) detergent for front­loading washing machines. HE detergents dissolve more efficiently and produce fewer suds to ensure efficient washing and rinsing. Use the correct amount of detergent as indicated on the label of the detergent packaging.
Designed specially to use only HE (High-Efficiency) detergent
NOTE
• Only use HE detergents, since using a regular deter­gent may produce excessive suds.
• HE detergents produce fewer suds, dissolve more ef­ficiently to improve washing and rinsing performance, and help to keep the interior of your washer clean.
• Use less detergent for soft water.
• Wipe up any spills immediately, as liquids could dam-
age the finish and the control panel of the washing machine.
• Using too much detergent can cause a build-up in the
tub resulting in unsatisfactory performance and ma-
chine malfunction.
• If you use a detergent that does not dissolve easily or a
detergent with high viscosity, it will leave a residue on the tub, which may not rinse properly.
About the dispenser
The automatic dispenser consists of three compartments which hold:
• Liquid chlorine bleach.

Follow the detergent manufacturer's instructions with respect to the amount of detergent to use, and never use more than the recommended amount. Using too much detergent can result in detergent buildup in clothing and the washer. Either powdered or liquid detergent may be used.
