4. Setup
4.1 Unpacking
Carefully remove all packaging materials, including the base packaging. Inspect the washing machine for any damage. Keep packaging materials until you are satisfied with the product.
4.2 Location Requirements
Choose a location that is:
- A level, solid floor capable of supporting the machine's weight (51.6 kg dry, plus water and laundry).
- Away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
- Equipped with hot and cold water faucets within 1 meter of the machine.
- Near a suitable drain for the discharge hose.
- Within reach of a grounded 120 Volt electrical outlet.
4.3 Connecting Water Hoses
Connect the provided hot and cold water inlet hoses to the corresponding faucets and to the inlet valves on the back of the washing machine. Ensure connections are tight to prevent leaks. Use new hoses; do not reuse old ones.
4.4 Drain Hose Installation
Securely place the drain hose into a standpipe or over the edge of a utility sink. Ensure the hose is properly secured to prevent it from dislodging during the drain cycle, which could cause flooding.
4.5 Leveling the Machine
Use a level to ensure the machine is perfectly balanced. Adjust the leveling feet at the bottom of the machine as needed. A properly leveled machine reduces vibration and noise during operation.
4.6 Power Connection
Plug the washing machine's power cord into a grounded 120 Volt electrical outlet. Do not use extension cords or adapters.
5. Operating Instructions
5.1 Loading Laundry
Open the lid and load clothes loosely into the tub. Do not overload the machine; ensure there is enough space for clothes to move freely for effective cleaning. For best results, mix large and small items.
5.2 Adding Detergent and Softener
Add the recommended amount of high-efficiency (HE) detergent to the dispenser. If using fabric softener, add it to the designated softener dispenser. Do not overfill.
5.3 Selecting a Wash Cycle
Turn the cycle selector knob to choose the appropriate wash cycle for your laundry type. Available cycles include:
- Normal: For everyday cottons and mixed fabrics.
- Heavy Duty: For heavily soiled, durable items.
- Delicate: For fragile items requiring gentle care.
- Quick Wash (Express Wash): For lightly soiled items that need a fast wash (approx. 20 minutes).
- Sanitization: For items requiring a higher level of hygiene.
5.4 Selecting Water Temperature
Select the desired water temperature (Hot, Warm, Cold) based on your fabric care labels and the chosen wash cycle.
5.5 Selecting Load Size / Water Level
The machine may automatically detect the load size. If manual selection is available, choose the appropriate water level to match your laundry load for optimal water and energy efficiency (Aqua Saver Green technology).
5.6 Starting the Wash
Close the lid and press the Start/Pause button to begin the wash cycle. The machine will fill with water, agitate, drain, rinse, and spin according to the selected cycle. An end of cycle signal will sound when the wash is complete.
