10 INSTALLATION

Choosing the Proper

Location

Install the washer on a solid oor that is strong and

rigid enough to support the weight of the washer,

even when fully loaded, without exing or bouncing.

If the oor has too much ex, you may need to

reinforce it to make it more rigid. If the oor is not

solid, it may cause severe vibration and noise.

NOTE

• Before installing the washer, make sure the oor

is clean, dry and free of dust, dirt, water and oil so

the washer feet cannot slide easily. Leveling feet

that can move or slide on the oor can contribute to

excess vibration and noise due to poor contact with

the oor.

• If a drip pan must be used, take extra care to follow

the instructions provided with the drip pan and make

sure the leveling feet are adjusted for rm and even

contact with the pan. Use of drip pans and failure to

properly level the machine may result in increased

vibration and noise during operation.

• Allow for sufcient space between the walls and the

washer for installation.

Power Outlet

• The power outlet must be within 60 inches (1.5 m)

of either side of the washer.

• The appliance and outlet must be positioned so that

the plug is easily accessible.

• Do not overload the outlet with more than one

appliance.

• The outlet must be grounded in accordance with

current electrical wiring codes and regulations.

• Use a time-delay fuse or circuit breaker.

NOTE

• It is the personal responsibility and obligation of the

product owner to have a proper outlet installed by

qualied service personnel.

Flooring

• To minimize noise and vibration, the washer must

be installed on a solidly constructed oor.

• Allowable slope under the entire washer is a

maximum 1 inch (2.5 cm) difference from side to

side or from front to back.

• Installing on carpeting and soft tile surfaces is not

recommended.

• Never install the washer on a platform or weakly

supported structure.

NOTE

• The washer must be installed on rm ooring to

minimize vibration during the spin cycle. Concrete

ooring is best, but a wood oor is sufcient,

provided it is built to FHA standards.

not stretch the water hoses intentionally, and make

sure that they are not pinched, crushed or kinked by

other objects.

• Water supply pressure must be between 20 psi

and 120 psi (138 – 827 kPa). If the water supply

pressure is more than 120 psi, a pressure reducing

valve must be installed.

• To provide optimum washing performance, the hot

water temperature should be set at 120 – 130 °F

(48 – 54 °C) and the cold at 60 °F (15 °C).

• The washer should never be installed or stored in a

location subject to freezing temperatures. Damage

to the water lines and internal mechanisms of the

washer can result. If the washer was exposed to

freezing temperatures prior to installation, allow it to

stand at room temperature for several hours before

14 INSTALLATION

Leveling the Washer

The drum of your new washer spins at very high

speeds. To minimize vibration, noise, and unwanted

movement, the oor must be a level, solid surface.

NOTE

• Adjust the leveling feet only as far as necessary to

level the washer. Extending the leveling feet more

than necessary can cause the washer to vibrate.

• Before installing the washer, make sure that the

oor is clean, dry and free of dust, dirt, water and

oil so the washer feet cannot slide easily. Feet

that move or slide on the oor can contribute to

excessive vibration and noise due to poor contact

with the oor.

1

Position the washer in its nal location.

Take special care not to pinch, strain, or crush the

water and drain lines. If you have a carpenter's

level, you can place it across the top of the

washer. The slope beneath the washer should not

exceed 1 inch, and all four leveling feet must rest

rmly on the oor.

Adjust Settings

Default settings for the selected cycle can now be changed, if desired, using the

cycle modier and option buttons.

• Not all modiers and options are available on all cycles. A different chime will

sound and the LED will not come on if the selection is not allowed.

6

Begin Cycle

Press the Start/Pause button to begin the cycle. The washer will agitate briey

without water to measure the weight of the load. If the Start/Pause button is not

pressed within 60 minutes, the washer will shut off and all settings will be lost.

7

End of Cycle

When the cycle is nished, a melody will sound. Immediately remove your

clothing from the washer to reduce wrinkling. Check around the door seal when

removing the load for small items that may be caught in the seal.

NOTE

• The washer rotates the laundry in a way that allows it to use less water while still fully saturating your clothing.

It is normal to not be able to see water during the wash cycle.

• If the temperature or the water level inside the machine is too high, the door will not unlock when the Start/

Pause button is pressed. To open the door in these circumstances, press Add Garments. To stop a cycle and

drain the water completely, turn the power off, then on, and then press Rinse+Spin.

17OPERATION

ENGLISH

Loading the Washer

• Check and empty pockets. Paper clips, coins,

matches, etc. can damage clothing and the washer.

• Close zippers and hooks, and tie drawstrings to

prevent snagging or tangling of clothes.

• Pretreat heavily stained areas for best results.

• Combine large and small items in a load. Load large

items rst. Large items should not be more than half

of total load.

• The washer can be fully loaded, but the drum

should not be tightly packed with items. The door of

the washer must close easily.

• Do not wash single small items. Add 1-2 similar

items to the load to prevent an out-of-balance load.

• Wash thick, bulky items individually. Heavy blankets,

comforters, bedspreads, or pet beds can get

tangled or cause an unbalanced load if combined

with other items.

• Do not wash/spin waterproof items. Washing

raincoats or sleeping bags may result in abnormal

vibration or may cause the load to bounce, which

could damage the drum.

• Wash small, light items in a mesh bag. Items like

underwear can get caught in the door seal, and

a brassiere hook may damage other items or the

drum.

• Brush off heavy soil, dust, and hair from items

before washing. Excess dirt or sand can abrade

other fabrics and lead to poor wash performance.

• For best performance, load clothes as shown.

the drum.
