Warning

HEATER

 

SAFETY

• Under certain conditions hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that has not

 

been used for two weeks or more. Hydrogen gas can be explosive under these

 

circumstances. If the HOT water has not been used for two weeks or more, prevent the

 

possibility of damage or injury by turning on all Hot water faucets and allowing them to

 

run for several minutes. Do this before using any electrical appliance which is connected

 

to the HOT water system. This simple procedure will allow any built-up hydrogen gas to

 

escape. Since the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame or appliance

 

during this process.

 

 

PROPER

Caution

• The base opening must not be obstructed by carpeting when the washing machine is installed

 

on a carpeted floor.

 

• Install or store where it will not be exposed to temperatures below freezing or exposed to the

 

weather.

 

If the product is exposed to such conditions, electric shock, fire, break down or

 

deformation may occur.

 

• Properly ground washer to conform with all governing codes and ordinances. Follow details

 

in Installation Instructions.

 

If not grounded properly, break down and leakage of electricity may occur, which may

 

cause electric shock.

 

• Must be positioned so that the plug is accessible.

Never pour undiluted liquid bleach directly onto clothes or into the wash basket.

This may cause change of color or damage the laundry.

Do not pour powdered bleach into bleach dispenser.

Using Fabric Softener

If desired, pour the recommended amount of liquid fabric softener into the right-hand compartment.

Use only liquid fabric softener.

Dilute with water to the maximum fill line.

• Do not exceed the maximum fill line.

Overfilling can cause early dispensing of the fabric softener, which could stain clothes.

NOTE : Do not pour fabric softener directly on the wash load. It may stain the clothes.

Attention

Do not mix with Detergent or bleach.

Never pour fabric softener directly on clothes. It may stain them.

Do not stop the washer during the first spin for timely dispensing.

If adjustments are needed during the wash, press the [start/pause] button before making any changes.

When the button is pressed during washing, the remaining time is displayed.

*For optimizing the washing algorithm, the displaying time may be changed during washing-increased by 8minutes at maximum and decreased by 4 minutes at maximum.

*If the Detergent quantity is put more than the standard, for increasing the rinsing performance, it automatically adds rinsing, and the remaining time may be increased.

*The standard detected by the sensor changing the algorithm is set by the normal standard. It may not be same to the washing habit of a specific user. So, it does not matter that the user uses it according to her/his washing habit.

*The sensor for a Detergent quantity is designed to detect based on a synthetic Detergent powder. If you put a liquid one or a natural one or too much bleaching agent, the detecting ability of the sensor may be decreased.

WATER TEMPERATURE BUTTON (OPTION)

It only operates in FUZZY Program.

During being detected by the sensor, the LED flashes green, orange

and red in turn. And, after detecting, the LED lights a specific color according to the detecting condition as follows:

If the current washing condition (Detergent quantity, Water Temperature, water quality, etc.) is determined as better than the standard one, it optimizes the algorithm to save the energy by decreasing washing time/strength, and the LED automatically turns to red.

If the current washing condition is determined as worse than the standard one, it optimizes the algorithm by increasing washing time/strength, and the LED automatically turns to orange.

If the current washing condition is determined as equal to the standard one, the algorithm has no change and the LED turns to green.
