READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire
WARNING!
or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING : To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the washer,
follow basic precautions, including the following:
• Read all instructions before using the washer.
• Do not wash articles that have been previously
cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with
gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other
flammable or explosive substances, as they give
off vapors that could ignite or explode.
• 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.
• 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 the
washing machine, 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.
• Do not allow children to play on or in the washer.
Close supervision of children is necessary when
the washer is used near children.
• 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.
• See Installation Instructions for grounding
requirements.
• Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam
rubber or similarly textured rubber like materials.
• Interior of washer and condensing duct should be
cleaned periodically by qualified service
personnel.
• ALWAYS follow the fabric care instructions
supplied by the garment manufacturer.
• Do not place items exposed to cooking oil in your
dryer, Items contaminated with cooking oils may
• Contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause
a load to catch fire.
• Do not use fabric softeners or products to
eliminate static unless recommended by the
manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.
• Before the washer is removed from service or
discarded, remove the door to prevent children
from hiding inside.
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 don’t have the proper outlet, consult an electrician.
WARNING : Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric
shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the 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.

P
1. Care Labels
Look for a care label on your clothes. This will tell you about the fabric content of your
garment and how it should be washed.
2. Sorting
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. Wash 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.
Wash lint producers and lint collectors
separately.
3. Check before loading
ꢀ
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 the pockets to make sure
that they are empty. Things 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 don’t
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.

• The detergent should be used according to the
instruction of the detergent manufacture.
Softener level
• If too much detergent 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.
• Do not exceed the maximum fill line.
Overfilling can cause early dispensing
of the fabric softener which could stain
clothes.
• Use powder detergent only for the front
loading washer.
• Do not leave the fabric softener in the
detergent drawer for more than 2 days.
(Fabric softener could harden)
• Detergent usage may need to be adjusted
for water temperature, water hardness,
size, and soil level of the load. For best
results, avoid oversudsing.
• Softener will automatically be added
during last rinse cycle.
• Do not open the drawer when water is
supplied.
• Detergent is dispensed at the beginning of
the cycle.
• Solvents (benzene, etc.) are not
allowable.
Do not pour fabric softener

• This washer-dryer’s automatic
process from washing to drying
can be selected easily.
• Your dryer can handle a load of up to 3 kg dry
weight of articles.
TIME
NO HEAT
• When loading, shake out each handful of
clothes so that they can tumble freely.
• For most even drying, make sure
all articles in the clothes load are
similar in material and thickness.
DRY
Items should not be loaded in a tangled
condition, as this will lengthen the drying time.
• Do not overload dryer by stuffing too many articles
into drum. Items must be able to tumble freely.
Woolen Articles
- Do not tumble dry woolen articles. Pull them
to their original shape, and dry them flat.
• If you open door and remove load before dryer has
finished its cycle, remember to press the
START/PAUSE button.
Woven and Loopknit Materials
1. Drying Automatic guide
- Some woven and loopknit materials may
shrink, by varying amounts, depending on
their quality.
• Use your Automatic Cycles to dry most
loads. Electronic sensors measure the
temperature of the exhaust to increase or
decrease drying temperatures for faster
reaction time and tigher temperature control.
- Always stretch them out immediately after
drying.
Permanent Press and Synthetics
• If a load is not as dry as you like, complete
drying using a time cycle.
- Do not overload your dryer
- Take out permanent press articles an soon as
the dryer stops to reduce wrinkles.

use.
