NOTE
Accessory inlet hoses are available in
various lengths up to 10 feet (275 cm) for
faucets that are further away from the back
of your washer.
To avoid the possibility of water damage:
• Have water faucets easily accessible.
• Turn off faucets when the washer is not
in use.
• Periodically check that there is no
leakage from the water inlet hose
ttings.
WARNING
Check all connections at the water valve and

WARNING
To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance,
follow basic precautions, including the following:
Loading your washer
• Fill the tub with dry, unfolded clothes
evenly around in order to enhance
washing efciency and prevent excess
wear, or wrinkling of the load.
• For optimal washing performance, make
sure the laundry is piled up evenly.
• Wash delicate items such as bras, hosiery,
and other lingerie in the Delicates cycle
with similar lightweight items.
• When washing big bulky items or a
few smaller items that don’t ll the tub
completely – a rug, a pillow, stuffed toys,
or one or two sweaters, for example – add
a few towels to improve spin performance.
• Do not insert bulky items except for
Bedding in this cycle.
26 English
NOTE
During the spin cycle, the washer may add
additional water to redistribute the clothes
and correct an imbalance inside the drum.
• When washing heavily soiled loads, do
not overload your washer to ensure good
cleaning results.
CAUTION
• Inatable items may cause damage to the
laundry or the machine during the wash or
drying process.
• Regardless of the size, blankets or quilts
are safer and cleaner to wash one item at
a time. Two different-sized blankets in the
same load may compromise the drying
performance due to unbalanced loads.

ATC (Auto Temperature Control)
ATC is the control function that the
washer controls water temperature with
temperature sensor (thermistor).
NOTE
Because there are numerous water
temperatures depending on the customer’s

various water temperatures, settings of
heater temperature, etc.), ATC function in our
washer maintains the certain level of wash
temperature to output the best washing
performance at each cycle.
1. Open the lid.
2. Remove laundry.
NOTE
If you select NORMAL, this cycle is the
regulation and UL cycle. Since new washers
must reduce the amount of energy usage as
a rst priority, customers will notice more
cold water entering the washer. But, this is
normal, not a problem.
In those regulation cycles, Hot temperature
is similar to acceptable adult bath-water
temperature and warm temperature is
similar to comfortable swimming-pool water
temperature.
NOTE
If customers want to wash clothes in specic
water temperatures, customers should
choose a different cycle at each temperature
(Hot/Warm).

Water temperature
The clothes washer can not ensure
these temperatures because the actual
temperature of the water entering your
washer depends on water heater settings
and regional water supply temperatures. For
example, cold water entering the home in
the northern states during winter may be
40 °F / 4 °C which is too cold for effective
cleaning. In this situation, you will need to
adjust the water temperature by selecting
a warm setting, adding some hot water to
the MAX FILL line, or using your Washer’s
heating option, if available.
