Important Safety Instructions
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury when using your appliance, follow these basic precautions:
- Read all instructions before using the appliance.
- Do not wash articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances as they emit vapors that could ignite or explode.
- Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close supervision of children is necessary when the appliance is used near children.
- Do not reach into the appliance if the tub or agitator is moving.
- Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather or freezing temperatures.
- Do not tamper with controls.
- Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in the user-maintenance instructions or in published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.
- Always disconnect the appliance from the power supply before attempting any service.
- Ensure proper grounding of the appliance.
Installation and Setup
Unpacking
Remove all packaging materials, including the base packaging and any protective film. Keep packaging materials out of reach of children.
Location Requirements
Install the washer on a firm, level floor. Ensure the area has adequate water supply (hot and cold), a drain facility, and a grounded electrical outlet. Avoid direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
Connecting Water Hoses
Connect the hot water supply hose to the hot water inlet on the back of the washer (marked with an 'H' or red). Connect the cold water supply hose to the cold water inlet (marked with a 'C' or blue). Tighten all connections securely to prevent leaks. Turn on the water supply and check for leaks.
Connecting Drain Hose
Insert the drain hose into a standpipe or laundry tub. Ensure the hose is securely fastened to prevent it from dislodging during operation. The drain hose should be positioned between 34 and 96 inches (86-244 cm) from the bottom of the washer.
Leveling the Washer
Use a level to ensure the washer is perfectly balanced. Adjust the leveling feet at the bottom of the washer by turning them clockwise or counter-clockwise until the appliance is stable and level. A properly leveled washer reduces vibration and noise during operation.
Power Connection
Plug the power cord into a grounded 120V, 60Hz, 15 Amp electrical outlet. Do not use an extension cord.

Using activewash™
The activewash™ sink is integrated into the washer lid, providing a convenient space for pre-treating heavily soiled items. Simply lift the activewash™ lid to access the built-in sink. Use the water jet and scrubbing board for effective pre-washing. Once pre-treatment is complete, lift the sink to drain the water and items directly into the washer drum.

Loading Laundry
Load items loosely into the washer drum. Do not overload the washer, as this can affect washing performance and cause excessive vibration. Mix large and small items for balanced loads.

Available cycles include Heavy Duty, Normal, Quick Wash, Delicates, Brilliant Whites, Colors/Darks, Steam Sanitize, Bedding/Waterproof, and Deep Wash.
