MOTION
Protection against creases
With the alternating rotation of the drum, creasing is minimized.
Built-in heater
Internal heater automatically heats the water to the best temperature
on selected cycles.
More economical with Intelligent Wash system
Intelligent Wash System detects the size of load and water temperature,
and then determines the optimum water level and washing time to
minimize energy and water consumption.
Child Lock
The Child Lock prevents children from pressing any button to change
the settings during operation.
Low noise speed control system
By sensing the amount of load and balance, it evenly distributes load
to minimize the spinning noise level.
Inverter Direct Drive system
The advanced Brushless DC motor directly drives the drum without
belt and pulley.
6 motion
Washer is able to perform various drum actions or a combination of
different actions depending on the wash program selected.
Combined with a controlled spin speed and the ability of the drum to
rotate both left and right, the wash performance of the machine is greatly
improved, giving you perfect results every time.

* Do not wash or dry articles that have been cleaned in,
washed in, soaked in, or spotted with combustible or
explosive substances (such as wax, oil, paint, gasoline,
degreasers, dry-cleaning solvents, kerosene, efc.)
which may ignite or explode. Oil may remain in the tub
after a whole cycle resulting in fire during drying.
So, do not load oiled clothes.
* Do not slam the washer door closed or try to force the
door open when locked. This could result in damage to
the washer.
* When the machine runs high temperature, the front
door may be very hot. Don't touch it.
* TO MiNiMIZE the possibility of electric shock, unplug this
appliance from the power supply or disconnect the
washer at the household distribution panel by removing
the fuse or switching off the circuit breaker before
attempting any maintenance or cleaning.
* When unplugging power cord, do not pull out by
grasping the cord. Otherwise, the power cord may be
damaged.
* Never attempt to operate this appliance if it is
damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled, or
has missing or broken parts, including a damaged cord
or plug.

result in property, personal injury or death.
* Do not push down the door excessively, when washer
door open. This could topple over the washer.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION concerning the Power cord
Most appliances recommend they be placed upon a dedicated circuit; that is, a single
outlet circuit which powers only that appliance and has no additional outlets or branch
circuits. Check the specification page of this owner's manual to be certain.
Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets,
extension cords, frayed power cords, or damaged or cracked wire insulation are
dangerous. Any of these conditions could result in an electric shock or fire.
Periodically examine the cord of your appliance, and if its appearance indicates damage
or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of the appliance, and have the cord replaced
with an exact replacement part by an authorized servicer.
Protect the power cord from physical or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted, kinked,
pinched, closed in a door, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall outlets,
and the point where the cord exits the appliance.
The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without
supervision.
Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with appliance.

water onto stains like collars and cuffs to help lift dirt.
* Check the folds of the flexible gasket (gray) and remove any
small articles.
* Check inside of the drum and remove any item from a previous
wash.
+ Remove any clothing or items from the flexible gasket to prevent
clothing and gasket damage.
