NOTE
y
The front-load washing machine rotates the laundry in a way that allows it to use less water while still
fully saturating your clothing. It is normal to not be able to see water during the wash cycle.
y
If the temperature or the water level inside the machine is too high, the door locks and cannot be
opened.
WARNING
y To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS before operating this appliance.
