Washing a Load of Laundry
_21
WASHING FOR THE FIRST TIME
Before starting to wash, check the following:
1.
Connect the water supply hose to the water tap. Open the tap. Connect the power to the washer.
Ensure that the drain hose is placed properly.
2.
Make the drain hose in installed properly.
Before performing a wash for the first time, you must run a complete cycle without adding any laundry.
1.
Press the
Power
button.
2.
Open the detergent drawer and insert a little detergent.
3.
Turn on the water supply to the washer.
4.
Press the
Start/Pause
button.
This will remove any water remaining from the manufacturer’s test run.
AUTOMATIC SENSING FUNCTION
Your washer is equipped with an automatic sensing function which automatically senses the amount of
laundry and the appropriate water level, wash time, rinse cycle, and spin time.
This does not apply for the Clean Tub, Delicate and Wool courses.
Special notes!
After the power is on, a course is selected and the
Start/Pause
button is pressed, the washing
board starts spinning without water. This action senses how much laundry is in the washing
basket, and this is not a machine problem. After the sensing process has completed, water is
supplied automatically.
Adding Detergent and Softener
•
The sensor senses the amount of laundry and indicates the water level and amount of
detergent. Water is then supplied right away.
•
During the water supply, it is possible to open the detergent box and add detergent.
However, it is better to press the
Start/Pause
button to stop the water supply and then add
detergent. Close the lid and press the
Start/Pause
button again.
•
If softener is added to the softener dispenser, it is automatically added during the last rinse
cycle.
Place the laundry into the washer and add detergent.
•
Be careful not to overload the washer. Use the appropriate detergent for the type of fabrics
you are washing.
•
If the lid is opened while the washer is running, the washer stops automatically for safety
reasons. (However, the water supply continues while the lid is open.)
•
When hot or warm water is selected, cold water is supplied for the first few seconds in order
to protect the clothes.
•
It is possible to control the wash time, rinse cycle, and spin time for every cycle during the
wash course.
