READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE WARNING!
For your safety, th e information in this manual m ust be followed to m inim ize the risk of fire or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property dam age, personal injury, or loss of life.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

W ARNING ! To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using
the washer, follow basic precautions, including the following: Do not install or store the washer where it will be exposed to the weather. Do not tamper with controls. Do not repair or replace any part of the washer or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in the user-maintenance instructions or published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out. Keep the area underneath and around your appliances free of combustible materials such as lint, paper, rags, chemicals, etc. Close supervision is necessary if this appliance is used by or near children. Do not allow children to play on, with, or inside this or any other appliance. Do not leave the washer door open. An open door could entice children to hang on the door or crawl inside the washer. Never reach into washer while it is moving. Wait until the drum has completely stopped. The laundry process can reduce the flame retardant of fabrics. Do not wash or dry articles that have been cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with combustible or explosive substances (such as wax, oil, paint, gasoline, degreasers, drycleaning solvents, kerosene, etc.) which may ignite or explode. To avoid such a result, carefully follow the garment manufacturers wash and care instructions. Do not slam the washer door closed or try to force the door open when locked. This could result in damage to the washer. To minimize the possibility of electric shock, unplug this appliance from the power supply or disconnect the washer at the household distribution panel by removing the fuse or switching off the circuit breaker before attempting any maintenance or cleaning. Never attempt to operate this appliance if it is damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled, or has missing or broken parts, including a damaged cord or plug.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
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 cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinance. Do not use an adapter or otherwise defeat the grounding plug. If you dont have the proper outlet, consult an electrician.

Caring before washing

1 . C are L a b els Look for a care label on your clothes. This will tell you about the fabric content of your garm ent and how it should be washed. 2 . S o r tin g To get the best results, Sort clothes into loads that can be washed with the same wash cycle. Water temperature and spin speed and different fabrics need to be washed in different ways. Always sort dark colors from pale colors and whites. W ash separately as dye and lint transfer can occur causing discoloration of white etc. If possible, do not wash heavily soiled items with lightly soiled one. Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light) Color (White, Lights, Darks) Lint (Lint producers, Collectors) Separate clothes according to amount of soil. Separate white fabrics from colored fabrics. W ash lint producers and lint collectors separately.

3 . C a rin g b e fo r e lo a d in g Combine large and small items in a load. Load large items first. Large items should not be more than half the total wash load. Do not wash single items. This may cause an out-of-balance load. Add one or two similar items. Check all pockets to make sure that they are empty. Items such as nails, hair clip, matches, pens, coins and keys can damage both your washer and your clothes. Close zippers, hooks and strings to make sure that these items dont snag on other clothes.

Pre treat dirt and stains by brushing a little detergent dissolved in water onto stains like collars and cuffs to help shift dirt.

Adding detergent and fabric softener
1. The D isp e n se r D raw er 3 . D eter g en t d o sa g e
The detergent should be used according to the instruction o f the detergen t manufactu re. I f too much detergen t is used more than the recommended amount, too many suds can occur and this will decrease the washing result or cause heavy load to the motor. (Causing a malfunction) Use pow der detergent only fo r the fro n t loading washer. Detergent usage may need to be adjusted Pre Wash + Main W ash ^ \ I / .U I/ for water tem perature, w ater hardness, size and soil level of the load. For best results, avoid oversudsing.

* T ip s

(vy)^g
Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Overfilling can cause early dispensing of the fabric softener which could stain clothes. Do not leave the fabric softener in the detergent drawer for more than 2 days. (Fabric softener could harden) Softener will autom atically be added during the last rinse cycle. Do not open the drawer when w ater is supplied. Solvents(benzene, etc) are not allowable. Do not p o u r fa b ric s o fte n e r d ire c tly on th e clo th s

Once you have finished cleaning, replace the drawer and run a rinse cycle without laundry.

The washing drum

If you live in a hard water area, limescale may continuously build up in places where it cannot be seen and thus not easily removed. Over time the build up of scale clogs appliances, and if it is not kept in check these may have to be replaced. Although the washing drum is made of Stainless steel, specks of rust can be caused by small metal articles (paper clips, safety pins) which have been left in the drum. The washing drum should be cleaned from time to time. If you use descaling agents, dyes or bleaches, make sure they are suitable for washing machine use. Descaler may contain chemicals that may damage part of your washing machine. Remove any spots with a stainless steel cleaning agent. Never use steel wool.
