WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before operating this appliance.

Use a 120 Volt, 60Hz, 15 amp fuse or circuit breaker. We recommend an individual branch circuit that serves only your washer.

MIDEA MLTW51A2BWW - WARNING - 1

WARNING

Never use an extension cord.

Electrical grounding is required for your washer.

You must ground your washer. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for the electric current.

Your washer is equipped with a power cord with a three-pronged grounding plug for use in a correctly installed and grounded outlet.

The outlet must be correctly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

MIDEA MLTW51A2BWW - Electrical grounding is required for your washer. - 1

WARNING

  • You are responsible for providing adequate electrical services for your washer.
  • An incorrectly connected equipment-grounding conductor can increase the risk of electrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceperson if you are not sure whether your washer is grounded correctly.
  • Do not modify the power cord plug that came with your washer. If the plug does not fit the outlet, have the correct type outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
  • To prevent unnecessary risk of fire, electrical shock or personal injury, all wiring and grounding must be done in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/FNPA, No.70 Latest Revision and local codes and ordinances.
  • Never connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines or hot water pipes.
  • Failure to closely follow these instructions may result in an abnormal vibrating and out-of-balance condition that could result in physical injury, property damage, and/or appliance damage.

Water requirements

To fill your washer in the correct amount of time, the water pressure needs to be between 14 and 116 psi (100 to 800 kPa).

If the water pressure is less than 14 psi (100 kPa):

  • The water valve may fail or may not shut off completely.
  • The time it takes to fill your washer may be longer than the time your washer controls allow. Your washer will turn off and report an error. A time-limit is built into the controls to prevent flooding in your home if a hose becomes loose.
  • Water inlet hoses must be purchased separately. You can buy inlet hoses in various lengths up to 8 ft. (240 cm).

To avoid the possibility of water damage:

  • Make sure that the water faucets are easily accessible.
  • Turn off the faucets when you are not using your washer.
  • Periodically check to make sure that water is not leaking from the water hose fittings.

Drainage requirements

The recommended height for the drain standpipe is 48 in. (122 cm).

The drain hose must be routed through the drain hose clip to the standpipe.

The standpipe must be large enough to accept the outside diameter of the drain hose.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Choosing a location

MIDEA MLTW51A2BWW - Choosing a location - 1

WARNING

  • Do not install your washer in areas where water may freeze, because your washer always retains some water in its water valve, pump and hose areas. Frozen water can damage the valve, pump, hoses and other components.
  • Never install on a platform or weakly supported structure.

For best performance, you must install your washer on a solid, level floor.

Wooden floors may need to be reinforced to minimize vibration or unbalanced load situations.

Carpeting and soft tile surfaces can contribute to excessive vibration, which can cause your washer to move slightly during the spin cycle.

Washing a load of laundry

MIDEA MLTW51A2BWW - Washing a load of laundry - 1

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before operating this appliance.

Selecting a detergent

Your washer is designed to use high efficiency (HE) detergents.

  • For the best cleaning results, use an HE detergent. We recommend that you do not use a regular detergent. HE detergents contain suppressors that reduce or eliminate suds. When fewer suds are produced, the load tumbles more efficiency and cleaning is maximized.
  • Reducing the amount of detergent may reduce the quality of cleaning. Make sure that you:

  • Pre-treat stains.

  • Sort carefully by colour and soil level.
  • Avoid overloading.

1. Turn on your washer

Press the Power button to turn on your washer. Your washer's initial settings are:

  • Normal on cycle selector with -- displayed on the digital display.
    • Medium for the Soil Level.
    • Warm for the Temp.
    • Water Level for the Auto.

2. Load your washer

MIDEA MLTW51A2BWW - Load your washer - 1

Caution

Before loading your laundry, make sure that you remove coins, keys, and other hard objects and close zippers. These items may damage clothes.

  • Sort laundry by fabric type, soil level, color, and load size.
  • Fill the tub with dry, unfolded clothes. Load the tub no more than 3/4 full.

NOTE:

• Overloading may reduce washing efficiency, cause excess wear, and possibly cause creasing or wrinkling of the load.
- Wash delicate items such as bras, hosiery and other lingerie on the Delicates cycle with similar lightweight items.

  • When washing big, bulky items (such as rugs or pillows) or a few smaller items (such as stuffed toys or one or two sweaters) that do not fill the tub completely, add a few towels to improve spin performance.
    • Always use the Bedding cycle for bedding items.
  • When washing heavily soiled loads, do not overload your washer to ensure good cleaning results.

2. Add detergent and additives to the compartment

text_image Softener compartment

Loading the liquid or powder detergent compartment

  • Pour the recommended amount of laundry detergent directly into the compartment before starting your washer.
  • If you are using color-safe bleach, add it with the detergent to the detergent compartment.

NOTE:

  • When adding color-safe bleach with detergent, both laundry products should be in the same form (liquid).
  • If the washer doesn't have a detergent compartment, add the detergent to the tub.

Loading the bleach compartment (liquid bleach only)

  • Add chlorine bleach to the bleach compartment. Do not over-fill the compartment.
  • There is no water inlet to the bleach dispenser, so the bleach will directly enter the tub when you pour it in.

MIDEA MLTW51A2BWW - Loading the bleach compartment (liquid bleach only) - 1

Caution

  • Avoid splashing or over-filling the compartment.
  • Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly onto the load or into the tub. Doing so can damage fabrics, by weakening of the fibers or stripping the color.

NOTE: Do not pour color-safe bleach into the bleach compartment. Instead, add it to the detergent compartment.

Loading the fabric softener compartment

- Pour the recommended amount of liquid fabric softener into the softener compartment. The dispenser automatically releases liquid fabric softener at the correct time during the rinse cycle.

Caution

  • Use the softener compartment ONLY for liquid fabric softeners.
  • Do not use the Downy Ball® in the fabric softener compartment.
  • Do not use liquid fabric softener that is too sticky as it may not mix with the water sufficiently.
  • Be sure to select the Fabric Softener option when using fabric softener so that it is released in the rinse portion of the cycle.

3. Select the appropriate cycle and options for the load

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

(a) Parties: This arbitration clause (this "Arbitration Clause") affects your rights against Midea and any of its affiliates or employees or agents, successors, or assigns, all of whom together are referred to below as "we" or "us" for ease of reference.

(b) ARBITRATION REQUIREMENT: EXCEPT AS STATED BELOW, ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND ANY OF US SHALL BE DECIDED BY NEUTRAL, BINDING ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT OR BY JURY TRIAL. "Dispute" will be given the broadest possible meaning allowable by law. It includes any dispute, claim, or controversy arising from or relating to your purchase of this Product, any warranty upon the Product, or the Product's condition. It also includes determination of the scope or applicability of this Arbitration Clause. The arbitration requirement applies to claims in contract and tort, pursuant to statute, or otherwise.

(c) CLASS-ARBITRATION WAIVER: ARBITRATION IS HANDLED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. IF A DISPUTE IS ARBITRATED, YOU AND WE EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS MEMBER ON ANY CLASS CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE AGAINST US OR WE AGAINST YOU, OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL OR IN ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. YOU AND WE ALSO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO CLASS ARBITRATION OR ANY CONSOLIDATION OF INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATIONS.

(d) Discovery and Other Rights: Discovery and rights to appeal in arbitration are generally more limited than in a lawsuit. This applies to both you and us. Other rights that you or we would have in court may not be available in arbitration. Please read this Arbitration Clause and consult the rules of the arbitration organizations listed below for more information.

(e) SMALL CLAIMS COURT OPTION: YOU MAY CHOOSE TO LITIGATE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND ANY OF US IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT, RATHER THAN IN ARBITRATION, IF THE DISPUTE MEETS ALL REQUIREMENTS TO BE HEARD IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT.

(f) Governing Law: For residents of the United States, the procedures and effect of the arbitration will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.) rather than by state law concerning arbitration. For residents of Canada, the procedures and effect of the arbitration will be governed by the applicable arbitration law of the province in which you purchased your Product. The law governing your substantive warranty rights and other claims will be the law of the state or province in which you purchased your Product. Any court having jurisdiction may enter judgment on the arbitration award.

(g) Rules of the Arbitration: If the amount in controversy is less than \250,000, the arbitration will be decided by a single arbitrator. If the amount in controversy is greater than or equal to \250,000, the arbitration will be decided by a panel of three arbitrators. The arbitrator(s) will be chosen pursuant to the rules of the administering arbitration organization. United States residents may choose JAMS (1920 Main Street, Ste. 300, Irvine, CA 92614, www.jamsadr.com), or, subject to our approval, any other arbitration organization. In addition, Canadian residents may choose the ADR Institute of Canada (234 Eglinton Ave. East, Suite 405, Toronto, Ontario, M4P 1K5, www.amic.org). These organizations' rules can be obtained by contacting the organization or visiting its website. If the chosen arbitration organization's rules conflict with this Arbitration Clause, the provisions of this Arbitration Clause control. The award of the arbitrator(s) shall be final and binding on all parties.

(h) Location of the Arbitration Hearing: Unless applicable law provides otherwise, the arbitration hearing for United States residents will be conducted in the federal judicial district in which you reside (in your hometown area) or, for Canadian residents, in the province in which you reside, and, if you choose, will be in-person.

(i) Costs of the Arbitration: Each party is responsible for its own attorney, expert, and other costs and fees unless applicable law requires otherwise. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, and unless applicable law requires otherwise, if you are a consumer under the JAMS rules or the rules of another agreed upon arbitration administrator, Midea will pay or reimburse you for all reasonable fees or costs to the extent required by law or the applicable arbitration administrator's rules. Whether or not required by law or such rules, if you prevail at arbitration on any claim against Midea, Midea will reimburse you for any reasonable fees paid to the arbitration administrator in connection with the arbitration proceedings. Under no circumstances will Midea seek from you payment or reimbursement of any reasonable fees that Midea incurs in connection with the arbitration. If you are required to advance any fees or costs to JAMS or other agreed upon arbitration administrator, but you ask Midea to do so in your stead, Midea will consider and respond to your request.

(j) Survival and Enforceability of this Arbitration Clause: This Arbitration Clause shall survive the expiration or termination, or any transfer, of the warranty on your Product. If any part of this Arbitration Clause, except waivers of class-action rights, is found to be unenforceable for any reason, the remainder of this clause and the warranty shall remain enforceable. If, in a case in which class-action allegations have been made, the waiver of class-action rights under this warranty is found to be unenforceable with respect to any part of the dispute, the parts of the dispute as to which the waiver of class-action rights have been found unenforceable will be severed and will proceed in court without reference or application of this Arbitration Clause. Any remaining parts will proceed in arbitration.
