plumbing lines, gas lines, or hot water pipes.
Water
To correctly ll your Washer in the proper
amount of time, water pressure of 20 to
116psi (137 to 800kPa) is required.
Water pressure less than 20 psi may cause
water valve failure, or may not allow the
water valve to shut off completely, or may
extend the ll time beyond what your
Washer controls allow, causing your Washer
to turn off. A time limit is built into the
controls to prevent ooding in your home if
a hose becomes loose.

WA7700K_WA45K-03520S-00_EN.indd 16 2015/12/16 19:08:25
The water faucets must be within 4 feet
(122 cm) to the back of your Washer to
match the inlet hoses provided with your
Washer.
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

The end of the drain hose can be positioned
in three ways:
Over the edge of a wash basin
Secure the hose guide (A) to the side of the
basin wall with a hook or to the tap with
a piece of string to prevent the drain hose
from moving.
In a standpipe or laundry tub
The standpipe (B) and laundry tub (C) must
be no shorter than 39 in (99 cm)* and no
longer than 96 in (245 cm)*.
*
E
NOTE
• Make sure that the connection between
the drain hose and the standpipe is not
airtight.
24 English
WA7700K_WA45K-03520S-00_EN.indd 24 2015/12/16 19:08:27
NOTE
Connect the hose guide (A) within 4 in (10
cm)* from the end of the drain hose. If the
drain hose is extended more than 4 in (10
*
A
cm) beyond the end of the hose guide, mold
or microorganisms could spread to the
inside of the washer.
NOTE
The drain hose can be installed to a 96
in (245 cm) maximum, but the draining
capability can be reduced at this height.
It can cause the washer to have an odor
because of remaining water in the drain
system.
NOTE
If the drain hose is installed below 39 in (99
cm), water can be drained in cycles due to a
siphon phenomenon. It causes the washer to
display “4C”.
Installation
STEP 4 Leveling your washer
A
See if the washer is level by checking the
position of the tub:
1. Slide the washer into position.
2. Open the lid of the washer, and pour
the water into the tub to just below the
pulsator level.

ATC (Auto Temperature Control)
ATC is the control function that the
washer controls water temperature with
temperature sensor (thermistor).
Because there are numerous water
temperatures depending on the customer’s
environments (cold areas, warm areas,
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.
If you select NORMAL cycle, 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

Your washer is designed to use high efciency (HE) detergents.
• For the best cleaning results, use a high efciency detergent such as Tide HE, Wisk HE,
Cheer HE or Gain HE*. High efciency detergents contain suds suppressors that reduce
or eliminate suds. When fewer suds are produced, the load tumbles more efciently and
cleaning is maximized. (* Brand names are trademarks of their respective manufacturers.)
WARNING
Regular detergent is not recommended. Use HE detergents only.
NOTE
Reducing the amount of detergent may reduce the quality of cleaning. It is important to pre–
treat stains, sort carefully by color and soil level, and avoid overloading.

Washing a load of laundry
Features
Automatic dispenser
Your washer has separate compartments for dispensing detergent and color-safe bleach and
fabric softener. Add all laundry additives to their respective compartments before starting
your washer.
The automatic dispenser must always be in place before you start your washer.
DO NOT open the automatic dispenser when your washer is running.
NOTE
• Never exceed the manufacturer’s recommendations when adding detergent.
• This compartment holds liquid detergent for the main wash cycle, which is added to the
load at the beginning of the cycle.
• When using powdered detergent, remove the liquid detergent compartment from the
detergent drawer. The washer will not dispense powdered detergent from the liquid
detergent compartment.
To add detergent to the automatic dispenser:
Washing a load of laundry
1. Open the dispenser drawer.
2. Load the recommended amount of liquid
(or powder) detergent into the detergent
compartment before you start your
wash.
3. Close the drawer slowly and smoothly
to avoid spilling, splashing, or premature
dispensing of the contents.
NOTE
It is normal for a small amount of water to
remain in the dispenser compartments at
the end of the cycle.
NOTE
Do not put chlorine bleach in the dispenser
drawer.

WA7700K_WA45K-03520S-00_EN.indd 42 2015/12/16 19:08:33
Loading the Liquid (or Powder) detergent compartment
A
1. Pour the recommended amount of
laundry detergent directly into the
detergent compartment before starting
your washer.
2. If you are using color-safe bleach, add
it with the detergent to the detergent
compartment.
NOTE
When adding color-safe bleach with
detergent, it is best if both laundry products
are in the same form – liquid.
NOTE
When using powdered detergent, remove
the liquid detergent compartment (A) from
the detergent drawer. The washer will not
dispense powdered detergent from the
liquid detergent compartment.

Maintaining your washer
Cleaning the exterior
Maintaining your washer
1. Turn off the water faucets after nishing
the day’s washing.
This will shut off the water supply to
your washer and prevent the unlikely
possibility of damage from escaping
water. Leave the lid open to allow the
inside of your washer to dry out.
Cleaning the interior
Clean the interior of your washer
periodically to remove any dirt, soil, odor,
mold, mildew, or bacterial residue that
may remain in your washer as a result of
washing clothes.
Storing your washer
Washers can be damaged if water is
not removed from hoses and internal
components before storage.
Prepare your washer for storage as follows:
1. Select the Quick Wash cycle and add
bleach to the automatic dispenser. Run
your washer through the cycle without
a load.
2. Turn the water faucets off and
disconnect the inlet hoses.
3. Unplug your washer from the electrical
outlet and leave your washer lid open to
let air circulate inside the drum.
If your washer has been stored in
below–freezing temperatures, allow time
for any leftover water in your washer to
thaw out before use.
2. Use a soft cloth to wipe up all detergent,
bleach or other spills as they occur.
3. Clean the following as recommended:
Control Panel – Clean with a soft, damp
cloth. Do not use abrasive powders or
cleaning pads. Do not spray cleaners
directly on the panel.
Failure to follow these instructions may
result in unpleasant conditions, including
odors and/or permanent stains on your
washer or laundry.
Hard water deposits may be removed, if
needed. Use cleaners labeled “Washer safe”.

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
