7. Do not tamper with controls.

8. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in the user-maintenance instructions or in published user-repair instructions

that you understand and have the skills to carry out.

9. 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.

10. 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 a washer or combination washer-dryer, 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.

BASIC LOCATION REQUIREMENTS

Electrical

• 120 Volt 60 Hz 15 AMP fuse or circuit breaker Individual branch circuit serving only your Washer is recommended.

Your Washer is equipped with a power cord.

NEVER USE AN EXTENSION CORD.

CAUTION

Grounding

ELECTRICAL GROUNDING IS REQUIRED ON THIS APPLIANCE.

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.

This appliance is equipped with a power cord having a three-prong grounding plug for use in a properly installed and grounded outlet.

The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the

WARNING

appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance - if it does not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

To prevent unnecessary risk of fire, electrical shock or personal injury, all wiring and grounding must be done in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/FNPA, No. 70 Latest Revision and local codes and ordinances. It is the personal responsibility of the appliance owner to provide adequate electrical service for this appliance.

NEVER CONNECT GROUND WIRE TO PLASTIC PLUMBING LINES, GAS LINES, OR HOT

....... WATER PIPES.

Water

To correctly fill your Washer in the proper amount of time, water pressure of 20-116 psi (137- 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, it may extend the fill time beyond what your Washer controls allow, resulting in your Washer turning off. A time limit is built into the controls in the event of an internal hose becoming loose and flooding your home.

The water faucets must be within 4 feet/122 cm of the back of your Washer for the inlet hoses provided with your Washer.

Accessory inlet hoses are available invarious lengths up to 10 feet/305cm 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 fittings.

CHECK ALL CONNECTIONS AT THE WATER VALVE AND FAUCET FOR LEAKS.

WARNING

Using hard water or bad quality water may cause the water supply valve to operate abnormally.

CAUTION

Drain facility

The recommended height of the standpipe is 18 in/46 cm. The drain hose must be routed through the drain hose clip to the standpipe. The standpipe must be large enough to accept the

outside diameter of the drain hose. The drain hose is attached at the factory.

instaling your washer 17

Flooring

For best performance, your Washer must be installed on a solidly constructed floor. Wood floors may need to be reinforced to minimize vibration and/or unbalanced load situations. Carpeting and soft tile surfaces are contributing factors in vibration may cause your washer to move slightly

during the spin cycle. Never install your washer on a platform or weakly supported structure.

Location considerations

Do not install your washer in areas where water may freeze, since your washer will always maintain some water in its water valve, pump, and hose areas. This can cause damage to the pump, hoses and other components.

Installing your Washer

1. Place the drain hose in the drain facility. Be sure an airtight connection is NOT made

between the drain hose and the standpipe. The standpipe must be at least 18 in or 46 cm high.

_ aution must always be exercised to

avoid collapsing or damaging the drain hose. For best results, the drain hose

should not be restricted in any way - by elbows, couplings, or excessive lengths. For situations where the drain hose

LOADING YOUR WASHER

,, You can fillthe tub with dry, unfolded clothes; but DO NOT OVERLOAD the tub. ,, Overloading may reduce washing efficiency, cause excess wear, and possibly cause creasing or

wrinkling of the load.

• 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 fill the tub completely - a rug, a pillow, stuffed toys, or one or two sweaters, for example - add a few towels to improve tumbling and spin performance.

During the spin cycle, the washer may add additional water to redistribute the excessive imbalance

inside the drum.

When washing heavily soiled loads, do not overload your Washer in order to assure good cleaning results.

Toadd a forgotten item: 1, Press the Start/Pause Button.

2, Wait for the Door Lock light to go out (5 seconds) 3, Add the item, close the door, and press the Start/Pause Button.

After a 10-second pause, the cycle will resume.

....... from falling out of the drum.

3, Add detergent and additives to the dispenser (see page 58). 4, Select the appropriate cycle and options for the load (see page 24).

5. Press the Start/Pause Button.

The drum automatically rotates and measures the weight of the laundry without supplying water in

order to adjust the wash time. (The rotating display on the display panel indicates that the weight of the laundry is being measured.)

6. The Wash Indicator light will illuminate.

7. The estimated cycle time will appear in the display. The time may fluctuate to better indicate the time remaining in the cycle.

The actual time required for a cycle may differ from the estimated time in the display depending on the

water pressure, water temperature, detergent, and laundry.

8. Before your washer starts to fill, it will make a series of clicking noises to check the door lock and do a quick drain.

When the cycle is complete, the Door Lock light will go out and "End" will appear in the display.

DO NOT attempt to open the door until the Door Lock light is off. To add a forgotten item, see "Loading your Washer" section. (page 23)
