• The machine sets the appropriate temperature automatically according to the wash program .
• The temperature of the water impacts the effectiveness of all laundry additives and therefore, the cleaning results.
We recommend temperatures of:
- HOT 49~60°C White items, nappies underclothing and heavily soiled, colorfast items.
- WARM 29~40°C Most items
- COLD* 18~24°C Only very bright colors with light soil.
• When washing in COLD water additional steps may be needed:
- Adjust Detergent amount and pre-dissolve Detergent in WARM water
- Pretreat spots and stains
- Soak heavily soiled items
- Use appropriate bleach
* Temperature below 18°C will not activate laundry additives and may cause linting & soap residue, poor cleaning, etc.
In addition, Detergent manufactures and care labels define COLD water as 26~29°C.
If the temperature of the water in the tub is too cold for your hands, the Detergent will not activate and clean effectively.
Water Temperature
Using Water
• This machine detects the weight of the of laundry automatically, then sets the Water Level
and indicates the recommended amount of detergent to be added by the detergent level indicator.
• When you select a wash program, the Water Level will be shown on the control panel.
• The following table shows the amount of water.
• When the Water Level is automatically detected, it may differ depending on the quantity
of laundry even though the same Water Level is indicated on the control panel.

Using the Dispenser Drawer
NOTE
If iron is present in the water the clothes may become an all-over yellow or they may be stained with brown or orange spots
or streaks. Iron is not always visible. Installation of a water softener or an iron filter may be necessary for severe cases.
NOTE
[ Minimum water amount ]
The washer has the ability to detect the weight of the clothes to determine the appropriate water level, but cannot detect
the volume of clothes, therefore it will be necessary to increase the water level manually to avoid linting and tangling
when washing bulky light weight loads.
The dispenser drawer contains 2 compartments:
• Liquid Fabric Softener
• Liquid or Powder Low-Sudsing, High-Efficiency Detergent
The dispenser automatically dispenses additives at the proper time in the wash cycle.
1. Slowly open the dispenser drawer by pulling the drawer out until it stops.
2. After adding laundry products, slowly close the dispenser drawer. Closing the drawer
too quickly could result in early dispensing of additives.
• Avoid overfilling or splashing when adding laundry products to the dispenser.
Doing so could result in early dispensing of laundry products.
At the end of the cycle, you may see water in the compartments. This is part of the
normal operation of the washer.
NOTE : Do not use bleach in the dispenser drawer. Powdered detergent should only be used in the soap dispenser compartment.
For optimum results, it may be necessary to dilute the Liquid Fabric softener before adding it to the softener dispenser.
