Water Level Sensor
The water level sensor is installed on the cabinet
right side top brace. The water level sensor is
connected by a hose to an air chamber attached to
the bottom of the outer tub. The water level control
consists of one internal sensor that monitor water
level conditions.
• When the water level rises in the outer tub, air is
trapped in the air chamber.
• As the water level rises, the air pressure in the air
chamber increases.
• The increased pressure operates the water
sensor.

automatically pump out regardless of whether

plugged in. This action supersedes all other
commands.
• The increased pressure to the water sensor

Water Level Control Operation
When the machine is empty, there is no water in
the outer tub and no pressure in the air chamber,
the sensor will output the empty frequency signal.
As the water level rises, the air pressure in the air
chamber increases, the water sensor frequency
will change as the pressure change until the foam
level reach, the tumble begins. Water temperature

of operation (water tempering) is calculated for the
main wash. When calculated, and/or when the
load absorbs water, the tumbling will pause. Fill
will continue until the main water level is reached

Water Levels
The foam water level is approximately 3 inches
below the door opening and approximately 1.25
inch deep at the bottom rear of the wash basket.
The main water level is approximately 2.4 inches
below the door opening and approximately 1.85
inches deep at the bottom rear of the wash basket.
