SOFTENER DISPENSER • Softener will automatically flow into the tub. DETERGENT DISPENSER POWER SUPPLY CORD BLEACH INLET FUNCTION SELECTORS DRAIN HOSE For Pump Model • Check out if the drain hose is hung up before operating the washing machine.
3-2. BEFORE STARTING TO WASH Care Labels * Look for a care label on your clothes. This will tell you about the fabric content of your garment and how it should be washed. Sort clothes into loads that can be washed with the same wash cycle, water temperature and spin speed. Sorting To get the best results, different fabrics need to be washed in different ways.
Using Water Amount of Water Level WATER - DETERGENT • This machine detects the quantity of laundry automatically, then sets the water level and EX-LARGE proper amount of detergent. LARGE • When you select a wash program, the water level and amount of detergent (to be used) MEDIUM will be shown on the control panel. SMALL • The following table shows the amount of water.
Using Detergent How much detergent When you select a wash program the water level and the amount of detergent (to be used) will be shown on the control panel. The amount of a cup in the diagram is about 40g for concentrated detergent. The correct amount of detergent will vary depending on the amount of soil in your clothes (Jeans and work cloches may need more detergent, while bath towels usually need less.). For liquid and concentrated detergents, follow the recommendations of the detergent manufacturer.
Using Fabric Softener Available Fabric Softener Type • Do not use concentrated fabric softener. This may cause some problems in automatic dispensing. • For more details refer to the softener products instructions for use. Depositing Fabric Softener • Don't use softener with detergent. Use softener in last rinse water • When using dispenser, dilute softener (30ml) with fresh water (30ml) • When filling dispenser, do not splash or overfill. It may stain clothes.
Special Guide for Stain Removal WARNING ■ Do not use or mix liquid chlorine bleach with other household chemicals such as toilet cleaners, rust removers, acid or products containing ammonia. These mixtures can produce dangerous fumes which can cause serious injury or death. ■ To reduce the risk of fire or serious injury to persons or property, comply with the basic warnings listed below: • Read and comply with all instructions on stain removal products.

Safety switch is too closer to • Check and replace safety inner tub asm or safety switch. switch contacted wrongly. 4. Is the CONNECTOR of Ball • Check B.P SENSOR Pressure Sensor CONNECTOR or replace B.
4-9. HOW TO DIAGNOSE AND REPAIR BY SYMPTOM 1) Washer is not energized. Where, what & how to check? Result of Check Possible Cause How to repair & settle Household Power supply Change the electrical. 1. Check whether connection between the plug and the electrical is poor Poor Defect of the electrical 2. Measure voltage of the electrical. Around rating No defect 0V Defect of household power supply 1.
2) Defects on displaying function Where, what & how to check? Result of Check Possible Cause How to repair & settle Main voltage 1. Measure mains voltage at the wall outlet Less than 85% Low voltage. of the rating. To explain that it is caused by low voltage in electric supply and recommend using a transfomer if voltage has been continuously low. 2.
3) Reset during operation Where, what & how to check? Result of Check Possible Cause How to repair & settle Drain Motor 1. Operate washer setting spin only, then press the start/pause button when the wash motor starts to work and then press the start/pause button again in order for the drain motor to work intermittently. Reset happens Defect of the drain after the drain motor (A noise motor works. generated when the internal relay works.) Change the drain motor Controller Change the controller. 1.
4) Water doesn’t come into the wash bowl. Where, what & how to check? Ball Pressure Sensor (Pressure Switch) 1. Is there PE error on the display which means Ball Pressure Senosr (Pressure Switch) error 2. Check frequency of the Ball Pressure Sensor(Pressure Switch) without load if wash is proceeding without filling. Result of Check Possible Cause How to repair & settle PE Error displayed. Connector is taken off, or lead or coil is open. Reconnect the connector or change leads.
6) Pulsator doesn’t rotate normally. Where, what & how to check? Result of Check Pulsator rotates at one direction. 1. The Pulsator rotates normally at the beginning of wash cycle, but is it not rotate at clockwise direction (locked) after some wash cycles though there is motor-working sound? Clockwise rotation locked. 2.
6) Pulsator doesn’t rotate normally. Where, what & how to check? Result of Check Possible Cause How to repair & settle 4. Pulsator weakly rotates. 1) Check voltage at the power outlet where the washer is plugged into. Less than 85% Lower voltage. of rating. 2) Check capacitance of the capacitor. Indicating needle rises and immediately indicates ∞. Capacitor is normal. The needle is stopped after it is raised. Lack of capacitance of the capacitor. Change the capacitor. The needle doesn’t move.
7) Water does not drain. Where, what & how to check? 4. Check whether the drain hose is blocked by foreign objects. It may happen in case of the hose is a little kinked. Result of Check Blocked. Possible Cause How to repair & settle Blocked hose. Remove the objects and reinstall so that it can’t be kinked. PV Case (for Non-Pump Model only) 1. Check whether the PV asm is blocked by foreign objects.
8) Water drains though it is not the time of drain. Where, what & how to check? Result of Check Possible Cause How to repair & settle Drain Motor (for Non-Pump Model only) 1. Check whether the drain motor is normally returned after turning power off. (It is considered normal if the lever of the drain motor is fully pulled out by the PV spring) Blocked. Defect of the drain motor. Change the drain motor. PV Case 1.
10) Spin extraction is not proceeded. Where, what & how to check? Result of Check Possible Cause How to repair & settle Motor 1. In the case that the wash motor does not spin during spin extraction; There is motor working sound. Defect of the capacitor or Mechanically locked. ① Check frequency of the Ball Pressure Sensor (Pressure Switch), under no load, or Less than 26.3kHz Defect of the Ball Pressure Sensor (Pressure Switch).
11) Spining is going on even though the lid is open. Where, what & how to check? Safety Switch 1. Check resistance between both terminals of the safety switch with the lid open. Result of Check 0~9Ω Contact points of the safety switch are welded. Change Switch ∞Ω Defect of the controller. Change the controller Yes Reed S/W is short by magnetic on the washer. Keep magnet away from the washer. No Reed Switch. Change the controller. Ball Pressure Sensor 1.
13) Vibration, Noise or Unbalance Error happens during spin. Where, what & how to check? Result of Check Possible Cause How to repair & settle Using conditions such as installation etc. Not leveled. 1. Check whether the washer is leveled. (Check clearance with out tub and out case the left gap is the same as the right and the rear gap is 1.5~2 time bigger than the front gap, between the cabinet and the wash bowl, when it is leveled.) Defect of installation Level the washer. 2.
14) Power is automatically turned off during operation or immediately turning on the power switch. Where, what & how to check? Result of Check Possible Cause How to repair & settle Main voltage 1. It is mostly caused by noise from mains or transfomerient power cut. Defect in main. Explain the cause. (It happens specially when a high frequency equipment is a used around the washer or in the case voltage fluctuation is big) Mechanical defect of the auto off switch. Change the auto off switch.
