Frequently Asked Questions - ETW4125CW Element

What type of detergent should I use?

Use a high-efficiency (HE) detergent for best results. HE detergents reduce suds and improve cleaning. Do not use regular detergent as it may cause oversudsing.

How do I clean the tub?

Run the Tub Clean cycle monthly. Add one cup of chlorine bleach to the bleach compartment with an empty tub, select the Tub Clean cycle, and press Start/Pause.

What does error code E1 mean?

E1 indicates water supply failure. Check that both water taps are fully open, hoses are not kinked or clogged, and water pressure is sufficient (14-116 psi). Clean the inlet filters if needed.

Why is my washer not starting?

Ensure the washer is plugged in, the lid is closed, water faucets are open, and you pressed Start/Pause. Also check the fuse or circuit breaker. The washer may take up to a minute to lock the lid and sense the load before filling.

How do I use the Control Lock?

Press and hold the Water Level and Temp. buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds to activate Control Lock. Only the Power button will work when locked. Repeat to unlock.

Can I open the lid during a cycle?

You can open the lid only after pressing Start/Pause to pause the cycle. Wait a few seconds for the lid lock to release. The washer will stop and resume when you close the lid and press Start/Pause again.

What is the recommended water pressure?

Water pressure should be between 14 and 116 psi (100 to 800 kPa). Low pressure may cause fill errors or longer fill times. High pressure is not recommended.

How do I level the washer?

Place a level on top of the washer. Adjust the front leveling feet by tilting the washer and turning the feet. Check level by pouring water into the tub to the leveling circle; water should touch the circle evenly. Avoid extending feet too much to prevent vibration.

How long is the warranty?

The washer comes with a 1-year warranty. If you register your product at elementelectronics.com/register within 90 days of purchase, the warranty is extended to 2 years from the date of purchase.

Main Components

Electrical requirements

WARNING

• To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before operating this appliance.
- Fail to closely follow these instructions may result in an abnormal vibrating and out-of-balance condition that could result in physical injury, damage, and/or appliance damage.

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

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.

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 serviceman 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 outlet type 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.

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

Unpacking your washer

WARNING

• Packing materials can be dangerous to children. Keep all packing materials (plastic bags, polystyrene, and so on) well out of the reach of children.
• Do not operate your washer on the foam base cushion. Doing so will result in serious vibration, which could cause equipment damage or result in physical injury.

Remove the packing box and lift the washer up and away from the foam base cushion. Open the lid of the washer to take out all accessories including the protective foam.

Choosing a location

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

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 color and soil level.
• Avoid overloading.

1. Turn on you washer

• Your washer will run with cycle selections you choose.
• The lights will display different combinations according to the different cycles you choose.

2. Load your washer

Caution

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

• Sort laundry by fabric type, soil level, color, and load size.
• The wash drum may be fully loaded with loosely added items.

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.

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 Bulky cycle for bulky items.
• When washing heavily soiled loads, do not overload your washer to ensure good cleaning results.

3. Add detergent and additives to the compartment

Liquid detergent compartment

Loading the liquid or powder detergent compartment

• Loading liquid or powder detergent in the compartment indicated.
• 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 no detergent compartment, you should add the detergent into the tub.

Loading PODs in the washer

• First load PODs directly the bottom of an empty basket
• Then add clothes on top of the PODs

NOTE:

- Loading PODs at the bottom of the basket will improve wash performance and will enable detergent to dissolve more easily in the wash.

Bleach compartment

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 load into the tub when you pour it in.

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.
• Whenever fabric softener is used, please make sure to select FABRIC SOFTENER on the Rinse selector knob.

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 thick 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.

4. Add detergent and additives to the compartment

- Turn the cycle selector to select a washing cycle. For information on wash cycles, see Washer options and settings on page 32.

5. Start your washer

- Press the Start Pause button.

NOTE:

- As your washer moves from stage to stage in the wash cycle, the related light turns on (such as Rinse or Spin).

- If you need to pause the cycle (for example to add or remove items or adjust the load), press the Start Pause button, then open the lid. Your washer stops. When you are ready to resume washing, close the door, then press the Start Pause button.

5. Upload your laundry

When the wash cycle is complete:

• When the wash cycle is complete.
• Open the lid and remove the laundry.
