INSTALLATION
Choosing an installation location
Install your washing machine in a level, stable place.
•
It is dangerous to place the washing machine in an
unstable location since it may move during vibration.
•
It will increase the sound produced by the machine when it
vibrates during use.
When you move washing machine, hold the handles on
the sides.
There are moving parts, electrical parts and steel plates
which may cause electrical shock or injury.
•
Never touch on the cabinet bottom by hands.
Never lift at the cabinet bottom by hands.
When the machine is covered.
Do not use the cover made of chloric vinyl. Sometimes it
damages resinous parts and painted surface. When you use
the cover made of chloric vinyl, put the cloth between the
machine and the cover.
Avoid place where the machine is exposed to direct
sunlight.
•
Plastic parts may become deformed or discolored.
Avoid places where the machine may become frozen
during cold weather.
Allow a space of at least 5 cm from the sides and rear of
the machine to the nearest vertical object.
• When placed too near to walls or other objects, the
vibration of the machine during operation may cause them
to shake.
Allow 5 cm
Installation
Adjust the legs so that the body of your washing machine is level (The two legs are adjustable).
After loosening the adjusting
nut, adjust the leg to the proper
12 3
height by turning it. Then
tighten the adjusting nut
securely once again.

When the leg height is difficult to
adjust because of floor slope or
unevenness, place a board of
sufficient thickness to prevent
breakage under the affected legs
to allow adjustment to a level
position.
A weight attached to a string may be used
to check to ensure that your washing
machine is level. The distance is less
than 1 cm between A and B.

Installing the drainage hose
Moving the hook
•
When inserting the drainage hose into a wash pan or
onto a drain pipe, the hook may be moved to facilitate
the installation.
•
When hooking the hose hook
into the slot provided on the
body of your washing machine,
move the hook back to its initial
position.
•
Insert the drainage hose
in as far as it will go, then
use the accessory hose
band to secure it tightly.
Secure the hose tightly .
•
An improperly secured
hose may cause leakage.
When attaching the drainage
•
hose to a wash pan, etc.,
either leave a gap between
the end of the hose and the
adjacent surface, or cut the
hose diagonally to ensure
proper drainage.
Allowing the flat end of the
hose to come in contact
with the flat surface of the
washing machine will
impair drainage.

The following are not malfunctions.
When: Check:
The first time you use your washing mac hine,
a small amount of water may drain out of the
drainage hose.
During operation the control panel gets warm.
•
This is merely water lift over from the perf ormance inspection performed
on your washing machine before it was shipped from the factory.

It is the cause of the power source wiring in a house. If fluorescence light
be changed, it may improve condition.
• Because load unbalance occurred and safety switch operated. The spin
will cycle resume after supplying water, rotating and correcting the
unbalanced load.
They are made by water retained by the machine for the purpose of
