INSTRUCTION MANUAL

■ Economic washing system

The washing machine determines the water level and washing time automatically by sensing the amount of laundry and water temperature in order to minimize energy and water consumption.

■ Low noise system

The washing machine minimizes the spinning noise level by sensing the amount of unbalance of laundry.

■ Nano-silver sterilization washing(Option)

By applying very fine silver particles on essential parts inside, the washer sterilizes up to 99.9% as is done by boiling wash.

■ Air bubble washing(Option)

This is an advanced technology that generates millions of air bubbles inside the drum on washing sequence, and the bubbles dissolve the detergent particles completely and cleanse all the soil in clothes gently and neatly.

Recommended earthing method
	For your personal safety, this washer must be earthed.This washer is equipped with a power supply cord ‘A’ having a earthing plug ‘B’.To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating earthing-type wall receptacle ‘C’. If a mating wall receptacle is not available,it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have the proper earthed wall receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.

To obtain the best washing results, you must operate your washer properly. This section gives you this important information.

Preparing clothes for washing
Close zippers, snaps, and hooks to avoid snagging other items.Remove pin, buckles, and other hard objects to avoid scratching the washer interior.Empty pockets and pull them inside out.	Turn down cuffs and turn synthetic knits inside out to avoid pilling.Tie strings and sashes to avoid tangling.Treat spots and stains.(See “Removing stains” on page 21)

Sorting

• Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled ones, even if they would normally be washed together.
• Separate dark colors from light colors, colorfast items from non-colorfast item.

Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light) Separate clothes according to amount of soil.

Color (White, Lights, Darks) Separate white clothes from colored clothes.

Lint (Lint producers, Collectors) Wash lint producers and lint collectors separately.

Loading

• Drop items into washer loosely. Items should move easily through wash water for best cleaning and wrinkle-free results.
• Load washer properly and select correct load size setting.
  Overloading and selecting a setting too small for the wash load can :
• Cause poor cleaning
• Increase wrinkling
• Create excessive lint

• Wear out items faster (because of pilling)

• Mix large and small items in each load. Load evenly to maintain washer balance.
  An unbalanced load can make the washer vibrate during spin.

- Reduce wash time when using a small load size setting. Load with only a few small items needs less wash time.

- Use a large load size setting to reduce wrinkling with permanent press clothes and some synthetic knits. These items should have more room to move in the water than heavy items. (towels, jeans)

Adding detergent

①Detergent case ②Adding fabric softener

Main wash Fabric softener Pre wash

• If desired, add measured liquid fabric softener to the softener inlet.
• Pour liquid fabric softener into the dispenser using the amount recommended on the package.
• Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Overfilling can cause early dispensing of the fabric softener which could stain clothes.
• Do not open the detergent case when water is supplied.

• Avoid pouring fabric softener directly on the clothes.

• Please use only the powder detergent for the front loader washing machine.

• Please use the proper amount of detergent in conformity with the instruction of the detergent manufacturer.
• A use of a large amount of detergent more than the recommended amount can cause many soapsuds and the overload to the motor. In addition to, this will deteriorate the washing and rinse performance.
• If too much detergent used, it can occur that the detergent directly falls down to the inside cavity. In this case, remove the detergent case and clean the cavity after washing cycle is finished. (See page 12)

If you are on vacation or don't use your washer for an extended period of time, you should:

- Unplug the power supply cord or turn off electrical power to the washer.

- Turn off the water supplier to the washer.

This helps avoid accidental flooding (due to a water pressure surge) while you are away.

HOW TO CLEAN THE FILTER

Cleaning the water inlet filter

- Clean the filter when water leaks from the water inlet.

1Turn off the water tap.

2Separate the inlet hose.

3Pull out the inlet filter. Clean the inlet filter with the brush

4Connect the inlet hose

Cleaning the drain filter

- This drain filter is used to screen the foreign stuffs such as threads, coins, pins, buttons etc.. - If the drain filter is not cleaned at proper time(every 10 times of use), drain problem could be caused.

CAUTION : Be careful when draining if the water is hot.

1. Open the cover-pump(1) by using coin.Separate the cover-pump(1) from the washing machine.

2. Install the cover-pump(1) to the lower frame(2).Open the pump-filter(3) slowly and allow the remaining water to flow into a suitable container.

3. Remove foreign objects from the pump-filter(3) and clean the interior.Close the pump-filter(3) and replace the cover-pump(1).

Cleaning the detergent case

• In case of residual detergents or fabric softeners have accumulated;
• it should be cleaned with a jet of running water.
• If necessary, it can be removed completely from the washing machine.

Push point ① Pull-out ② Push and pull again

• Detergents can be also accumulate the inside cavity.
In this case, the inside cavity should be cleaned with a brush.
• After cleaning, replace the detergent case and run Rinse cycle without laundry.

REMOVING STAINS

Stained, heavily-soiled, or greasy items may need to be prewashed or soaked for best results. Soaking helps remove protein-type stains like blood, milk or grass. Prewashing helps loosen soil before washing.

Stain removal rules

• Use warm water for soaking or prewashing stained laundry. Hot water can set stains.
• Most stains are easier to remove when they are fresh.
• Before treating any stain, find out what kind of stain it is, how old the stain is, what kind of fabric it is, and whether the fabric is colorfast. (Check the care label)
• Washing and drying can set some stains.
• Start with cold or warm water. Hot water can set some stains.
• When bleach is recommended, use a bleach that is safe for the fabric.
• Put the stained area face down on a paper towel or white cloth. Apply the stain remover to the back of the stain. This forces the stain off fabric instead of through it.
