Installation

Basic location requirements

Electrical

• 220-240 Volt 50 Hz fuse or circuit breaker.

• Individual branch circuit serving only your Washer is recommended.

• Your washer is equipped with a power cord.

CAUTION

Never use an extension cord.

Grounding

Electrical grounding is required for this appliance.

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current.

This appliance is equipped with a power cord having a three-prong grounding plug for use in a properly installed and grounded outlet.

The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING

An improperly connected equipmentgrounding conductor can increase the risk of electrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are not sure whether the appliance is properly grounded.

Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance – if it does not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet 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. It is the personal responsibility of the appliance owner to provide adequate electrical service for this appliance.

CAUTION

Never connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or hot water pipes.

Water

To correctly fill your Washer in the proper amount of time, water pressure of 20 to

116psi (137 to 800kPa) is required.

Water pressure less than 20 psi may cause water valve failure, or may not allow the water valve to shut off completely, or may extend the fill time beyond what your

Washer controls allow, causing your Washer to turn off. A time limit is built into the controls to prevent flooding in your home if a hose becomes loose.

14 English


The water faucets must be within 4 feet

(122 cm) to the back of your Washer to match the inlet hoses provided with your

Washer.

NOTE

Accessory inlet hoses are available in various lengths up to 10 feet (275 cm) for faucets that are further away from the back of your washer.

To avoid the possibility of water damage:

• Have water faucets easily accessible.

• Turn off faucets when the washer is not in use.

• Periodically check that there is no leakage from the water inlet hose fittings.

WARNING

Check all connections at the water valve and faucet for leaks

Drain facility

The recommended height of the standpipe is 39 in (99 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. The drain hose is attached to the washer at the factory.

Flooring

For best performance, you must install your washer on a solidly constructed floor.

Wood floors may need to be reinforced to minimize vibration and/or unbalanced load situations. Carpeting and soft tile surfaces are contributing factors to vibration which can cause your washer to move slightly during the spin cycle.

Never install your washer on a platform or weakly supported structure.

Location considerations

Do not install your washer in areas where water may freeze, since your washer will always retain some water in its water valve, pump, and hose areas. Frozen water can damage the belts, the pump, hoses, and other components.

STEP 2 Connecting the water supply hose

A

B

CAUTION

Before installing the water supply hoses, make sure there are rubber gaskets (B) inside the couplings (A) at both ends of each new water hose. Installing the water supply hoses without rubber gaskets can cause water leakage.

CAUTION

When you initially install the washer, be sure to use new hoses. Failing to do so may result in a water leakage or overflow and may damage your property.

CAUTION

Do not connect multiple water supply hoses together to increase the length of the supply hose. Hoses connected this way can leak and the leakage can cause electrical shock. If a hose is too short, replace the hose with a longer, high pressure hose.


English 19

2015/7/28 11:35:06

Installation

A B

1. Connect the ends of the water supply hoses to the hot (B) and cold (A) faucets.

2. Tighten the fittings by hand until they are snug, and then tighten them an additional two-thirds of a turn with a wrench.

CAUTION

When you fasten the fittings, do not fasten them too tightly or apply tape or sealant to the faucets or water supply intakes. This can damage the fittings.

NOTE

After you have connected the water supply hoses to the faucets, ensure that they are connected correctly by pulling the water supply hoses downwards.

3. Place the unconnected ends of the hoses into a bucket and open the faucets connected to the two water supply hoses for 10 or 15 seconds to remove any foreign substances from the hoses. Close the faucets before continuing.

20 English



4. Connect the ends of the water supply hoses to the water supply intake connections at the back of the washer.

CAUTION

The water supply hose connected to the hot faucet must be connected to the hot water supply intake and the water hose connected to the cold faucet must be connected to the cold water supply intake.

5. Tighten the fittings by hand until they are snug, and then tighten them an additional two-thirds of a turn with a wrench.

NOTE

To ensure the correct water usage, connect both the hot and cold water faucets. If either or both are not connected, an “4C” (no fill) code can be displayed.

NOTE

If you do not want to use the hot water supply hose, insert the water intake cap into the hot water supply intake hole. In this case, you must select the Tap Cold for the water temperature. If you select the Tap Cold, all the lamps for the water temperature options are turned off.

CAUTION

Confirm that the water supply hoses are not twisted or bent. If the hoses are twisted or bent, the hoses can leak and cause electric shock due to the water leakage.

6. Turn on the hot and cold water supplies and check all the water supply intake connections and the faucets for water leaks.

• D: Hose retainer, E: Tie strap

22 English


*

A

STEP 4 Leveling your washer

NOTE

Connect the hose guide (A) within 4 in (10 cm)* from the end of the drain hose. If the drain hose is extended more than 4 in (10 cm) beyond the end of the hose guide, mold or microorganisms could spread to the inside of the washer.

NOTE

The drain hose can be installed to a 96 in (245 cm) maximum, but the draining capability can be reduced at this height.

It can cause the washer to have an odor because of remaining water in the drain system.

NOTE

If the drain hose is installed below 39 in (99 cm), water can be drained in cycles due to a siphon phenomenon. It causes the washer to display “4C”.

See if the washer is level by checking the position of the tub:

1. Slide the washer into position.

2. Open the lid of the washer, and pour the water into the tub to just below the pulsator level.

When the cycle is finished:

After the total cycle has finished, the power will turn off automatically.

1. Open the lid.

2. Remove laundry.

ATC (Auto Temperature Control)

ATC is the control function that the washer controls water temperature with temperature sensor (thermistor).

NOTE

Because there are numerous water temperatures depending on the customer’s environments (cold areas, warm areas, various water temperatures, settings of heater temperature, etc.), ATC function in our washer maintains the certain level of wash temperature to output the best washing performance at each cycle.

NOTE

If you select NORMAL, this cycle is the regulation and UL cycle. Since new washers must reduce the amount of energy usage as a first priority, customers will notice more cold water entering the washer. But, this is normal, not a problem.

In those regulation cycles, Hot temperature is similar to acceptable adult bath-water temperature and warm temperature is similar to comfortable swimming-pool water temperature.

NOTE

If customers want to wash clothes in specific water temperatures, customers should choose a different cycle at each temperature

(Hot/Warm).

The basics

Prewash (Water Jet & Built-in sink)


Water Jet and Built-in sink help you handwash before the washing machine starts operation. Water Jet is available only when the door is open with the water level set to less than High. For prewashing, use the Built-in sink that is designed to facilitate the hand-wash.

1. With the door open, lower the Built-in sink . To open only the door, press and release the front right corner of the door. To close and lock both the door and the Built-in sink, press down the door until you hear a clicking sound.

2. Put clothes to prewash in it.

3. Press Water Jet to supply water to the

Built-in sink, and hand-wash.

4. When done, gently lift up the Built-in sink to drain water into the tub.

NOTE

• If you want to hand-wash while the machine is operating, press Start/Pause to stop operation, and then follow steps

1-4 above.

• If you open both the door and the

Builtin sink, lower the Built-in sink manually for prewashing.

[Water Jet stops]

• Water Jet stops operation automatically when the washing machine detects the maximum water level.

• Water Jet stops operation automatically

5 minutes after it begins. To add more water, press Water Jet again to resupply water.

[Water Jet drains]

• Select a cycle and press Start/Pause. Then the washing machine drains the water to be used during the prewash.

• When the washing machine is turned off before starting the wash cycle, it drains the water to be used during the prewash.

However, when it is turned off during the wash cycle, it does not drain the water.

NOTE

• Water Jet extracts the water through the

Mist Shower nozzle for 1 second and then through the Water Jet nozzle from then on when it is first activated after the washing machine turns on.

CAUTION

• Do not abuse Water Jet. Excessive use of

Water Jet increases water consumption.

• When running water to the tub, do that gently. Otherwise, water may overflow the tub.

• Use caution when removing laundry from the tub. You may bump your head on the

Built-in sink.

• Do not block the outlet of Water Jet with hands. Water may leak outside the tub, causing a system failure.

• Put only clothes to prewash in the Built-in sink. Other items such as shoes, food, or animals can not be used for prewash.

• Do not open the Built-in sink in a hurry.

Remaining water in the sink may splash on the door or control panel.

• Due to a difference in air pressure, Water Jet may splash water from its outlet when it is first activated.

• This lid must be closed tightly to do the laundry.
