WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Warnings and Important Safety Instructions in this manual do not cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It is your responsibility to use common sense, caution, and care when installing, maintaining, and operating your Washer. IMPORTANT SAFETY SYMBOLS AND PRECAUTIONS Hazards or unsafe practices that may result in severe personal injury or death. WARNING Hazards or unsafe practices that may result in minor personal injury or property damage. CAUTION To reduce the risk of fire, explosion, electric shock, or personal injury when using your washer, follow these basic safety precautions: CAUTION Do NOT attempt. Do NOT disassemble. Do NOT touch. Follow directions explicity. Unplug the power plug from the wall socket. Make sure the machine is grounded to prevent electric shock. Call the service center for help. Notice Read all instructions before using the appliance. With any equipment using electricity and moving parts, potential hazards exist. To safely operate this appliance, become familiar with its operation and be careful when using it. Install and store your washer inside, away from exposure to weather. Install and level your washer on a floor that can support its weight. Your washer must be properly grounded. Never plug it into an ungrounded outlet. See page 8 for more information on grounding your washer. 4_ Safety information WF431ABP-03016A-02_EN.indd Sec1:4 2011-04-04 1:43:28 To reduce the risk of fire or explosion: WARNING • • • Do not wash items that have been washed, soaked, or treated with gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances. They give off vapors that could ignite or explode. Rinse by hand any material that has been exposed to cleaning solvent or other flammable liquids or solids before putting in your washer. Be sure that all traces of such liquids, solids, and fumes have been removed. Dangerous substances include acetone, denatured alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, certain liquid household cleaners and spot removers, turpentine, waxes, and wax removers. Do not put gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances into the washer. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system–such as your hot water heater-- that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If your hot water system has not been used for two weeks or more, turn on all hot water faucets in your home, and let the water flow for several minutes before using your washer. This will release any hydrogen gas build–up. Since hydrogen gas is flammable, do not smoke or light an open flame during this time. Unplug the power cord before servicing your washer. Do not reach into the appliance when the tumbler is moving. WARNING Do not let children play on or in your washer. The washer door isn’t easily opened from the inside, and a child could be seriously injured if trapped inside. Do not tamper with the controls. Do not repair, replace, or service any part of your washer yourself unless you fully understand the recommended user–repair instructions and have the skills to carry them out. Work done by an unauthorized person may void your warranty. Store laundry detergents and other laundry supplies in a cool, dry place out of children’s reach. Do not wash or dry items that are soiled with vegetable or cooking oil. These items may contain some oil after laundering. Due to the remaining oil, the fabric may smoke or catch fire by itself. Do not use chlorine bleach, ammonia, or acids (such as vinegar or rust remover) in the same wash. Hazardous fumes can form. WARNING Do not wash fiberglass materials. Small particles can stick to fabrics washed in subsequent loads and cause skin irritation. Before disposing of your washer, remove the door so that children or small animals cannot get trapped inside. Do not sit on top of your washer. WARNING Inlet hoses are subject to damage and deterioration over time. Check the hoses periodically for bulges, kinks, cuts, wear or leaks, and replace them every five years. Ensure pockets are free from small irregularly shaped hard objects, foreign materials such as coins, knives, pins, etc. These objects could damage your washer. Do not wash clothing with large buckles, buttons, or other heavy pieces of metal in the washer. Do not wash a throw rug or doormat in the washer. • If you wash throw rug or doormat, the sand will accumulate inside the washer. Accumulated sand can prevent the washer from draining. Make sure the detergent drawer is closed before you put laundry into the washer or remove laundry from the washer. • If the detergent drawer is open, you could strike the drawer with your head and injure yourself.

Your Washer is equipped with a power cord. NEVER USE AN EXTENSION CORD. CAUTION 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 three-prong outlet. WARNING An improperly connected equipment-grounding 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. IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS • 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 20-116psi (137800kPa) is required. Water pressure less than 20 psi may cause water valve failure, 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 turning off. A time limit is built into the controls to prevent extensive flooding in your home if an internal hose becomes loose. The water faucets must be within 4 feet/122cm of the back of your washer to match the inlet hoses provided with your Washer. Accessory inlet hoses are available in various lengths up to 10 feet/305cm for faucets that are further away from the back of your washer. To avoid the possibility of water damage: • • • WARNING 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. CHECK ALL CONNECTIONS AT THE WATER VALVE AND FAUCET FOR LEAKS. 8_ Installing your washer WF431ABP-03016A-02_EN.indd Sec2:8 2011-04-04 1:43:30 Drain facility The recommended height of the standpipe is 18 in/46 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 at the factory. Flooring 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. Freezing water can damage the belts,the pump, hoses and other components. 01 Installing your washer 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. Alcove or closet installation MINIMUM CLEARANCES FOR CLOSET AND ALCOVE INSTALLATIONS: Sides – 1 in / 25 mm Top – 17 in / 432 mm Rear – 4 in / 102 mm Closet Front – 2 in / 51 mm If the washer and dryer are installed together, the closet front must have at least a 72 in² (465 cm²) unobstructed air opening.

These instructions should be retained for future reference. We recommend you hire a professional for installation of this washer. STEP 1 Removing the Shipping Bolts 01 Installing your washer Before using your washer, you must remove the four shipping bolts from the back of the unit. 1. Loosen all the bolts with the supplied wrench. 2. Slide the bolt and spacer up and remove the bolt with the spacer through the hole in the rear wall of your washer. Repeat for each bolt. 3. Cover the holes with the supplied Bolt Hole Covers (See page 7). 4. Keep the shipping bolts and spacers for future use. STEP 2 Selecting a Location Before you install your washer, make sure the location: • • • • • • • Has a hard, level surface Is away from direct sunlight Has adequate ventilation Will not freeze (tempuratures never below 32°F or 0°C) Is away from heat sources such as oil or gas Has enough room for the power cord. Doesn’t have any carpeting that will obstruct ventilation openings. STEP 3 Installing your Washer 1. If you use a stand pipe, make sure the connection between the drain hose and the standpipe is NOT airtight. The standpipe must be at least 18 in or 46 cm high. You must always exercise caution to avoid collapsing or damaging the drain hose. For best results, the drain hose should not be restricted in any way – by elbows, couplings, or excessive length. For situations where the drain hose cannot be conveniently elevated to at least 18 in or 46 cm, the drain hose must be supported. Do not insert the drain hose too far into the stand pipe: 6 - 8 inches, and no more.

Check the inlet hose to ensure a washer is inside each fill hose. Thread the inlet hoses to the HOT and COLD faucet connections. On the other end of the hose, check for one rubber washer per hose and attach each fill hose to the water valve. Make sure the hose with Hot printed on it is attached to the HOT faucet. Tighten by hand until snug, then two-thirds of a turn with pliers. For correct water use, connect both HOT and COLD water valves. If either or both are not connected, an “nF” (no fill) error can occur. Cold Hot Rubber Washer Cold printed Hot printed 3. Turn on the “HOT” and “COLD “water supply and check the water valve and the water supply connections for leaks. 4. Plug the power cord into a 3-Prong, well grounded 120 volt 60 Hz approved electrical outlet protected by a 15amp fuse or comparable circuit breaker. Your washer is grounded through the third prong of the power cord when plugged into a three-prong grounded receptacle. 5. Slide your washer into position. 6. Level your washer by turning the leveling legs in or out as necessary by hand or by using the wrench included with your washer. When your washer is level, tighten the locking nuts using the wrench or (-) flathead screwdriver. Locking Nut Levelling Leg Your washer must be leveled on all four sides. A carpenter’s level should be used on all four corners of your washer. We recommend you recheck your washer after a dozen or so washes to make sure it’s sitll level. Avoid damage to the legs. Do not move the Washer unless the Locking-nuts are fastened to the bottom of the Washer. 12_ Installing your washer WF431ABP-03016A-02_EN.indd Sec2:12 2011-04-04 1:43:32 operating instructions LOADING YOUR WASHER • • • During the spin cycle, the washer may add additional water to redistribute the clothes and correct an inbalance inside the drum. • • When washing heavily soiled loads, do not overload your washer to ensure good cleaning results.

High efficiency detergents contain suds suppressors that reduce or eliminate suds. When fewer suds are produced, the load tumbles more efficiently and cleaning is maximized. WARNING Regular detergent is NOT recommended. Please use HE detergents only. Reducing the amount of detergent may reduce the quality of cleaning. It is important to pre–treat stains, sort carefully by color and soil level, and avoid overloading. * Brand names are trademarks of their respective manufacturers. FEATURES Automatic dispenser Your Washer has separate compartments for dispensing detergent and color-safe bleach, chlorine bleach, and fabric softener. Add all laundry additives to their respective compartments before starting your Washer. The automatic dispenser MUST ALWAYS be in place before you start your Washer. DO NOT open the automatic dispenser when your washer is running. To use: • Never exceed the manufacturer’s recommendations when adding detergent. • This compartment holds liquid detergent for the main wash cycle, which the washer adds to the load at the beginning of the cycle. Pre wash compartment Before using powdered detergent, remove the Detegent Liquid holder from the compartment. Powdered detergent will not dispense from the Detegent Liquid holder. Detergent compartment 1. Pour the recommended amount of laundry detergent directly into the detergent compartment before starting your washer. 2. If you are using color-safe bleach, add it with the detergent to the detergent compartment. When adding color-safe bleach with detergent, it is best if both laundry products are in the same form – granular or liquid. 20_ Washing a load of laundry WF431ABP-03016A-02_EN.indd Sec11:20 2011-04-04 1:43:37 Pre wash compartment When using the Pre Wash option, add detergent to both the Pre Wash compartment and the detergent compartment. The washer will automatically dispense the detergent during Pre Wash. • If you use a high efficiency (HE) detergent, add 1/3 of the recommended amount to the Pre Wash compartment and 2/3 of the recommended amount to the detergent compartment. (Liquid chlorine bleach only) 1. Add chlorine bleach to the bleach compartment. DO NOT exceed the MAX FILL line. 2. Avoid splashing or over–filling the compartment. 3. Your washer automatically dispenses bleach into the tub at the appropriate time. 4. The dispenser automatically dilutes liquid chlorine bleach before it reaches the wash load. • Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly onto the load or into the tub. It is a powerful chemical and can cause fabric damage, such as weakening of the fibers or color loss, if not used properly. • If you prefer to use color–safe, non–chlorine bleach, add it to the appropriate detergent compartment. DO NOT pour color–safe bleach into the Bleach compartment. 03 Washing a load of laundry Bleach compartment Fabric Softener compartment Bleach compartment Fabric softener compartment 1. Pour the recommended amount of liquid fabric softener into the softener compartment. For smaller loads, use less than one capful. 2. Dilute the fabric softener with water until it reaches MAX FILL in the compartment. 3. The dispenser automatically releases liquid fabric softener at the proper time during the rinse cycle. • Use the softener compartment ONLY for liquid fabric softeners. • DO NOT use a Downy Ball* in the Fabric softener compartment of this washer. It will not be added at the appropriate time. Use the detergent compartment. * Brand names are trademarks of their respective manufacturers. If you overfill the detergent, bleach, or softener compartments, the contents of the compartment will automatically be released into the washer. This could damage any garments that are in the drum.

Permanent Press/ Wrinkle Resistant/ Wrinkle Control Gentle/ Delicates ** The dot symbols represent appropriate wash water temperatures for various items. The temperature range for Hot is 105° - 125° F/ 41° - 52°C, for Warm 85° - 105° F/29° - 41° C and for Cold 60° - 85° F/16° - 29° C. (Wash water temperature must be a minimum of 60° F/16°C for detergent activation and effective cleaning.) The clothes washer can not ensure these temperatures because the actual temperature of the water entering your washer is dependent on water heater settings and regional water supply temperatures. For example, cold water entering the home in the northern states during winter may be 40° F/4° C which is too cold for effective cleaning. The water temperature in this situation will need to be adjusted by selecting a warm setting, adding some hot water to the MAX FILL line or using your washer’s heating option, if available.
