• Individual branch circuit serving only your Washer is recommended.

• Your Washer is equipped with a power cord.

NEVER USE AN EXTENSION CORD.

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 outlet.

The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in

accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

An improperly connected equipment-grounding conductor can increase the risk of electrical

shock. Check with a qualiﬁ ed 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 ﬁ t the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualiﬁ ed electrician.

IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• To prevent unnecessary risk of ﬁ re, 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.

NEVER CONNECT THE GROUND WIRE TO PLASTIC PLUMBING LINES, GAS LINES, OR

HOT WATER PIPES.

Water

To correctly ﬁ ll your Washer in the proper amount of time, water pressure of 20 to 116psi (137 to

800kPa) is required.

Water pressure less than 20 psi may cause water valve failure, or may not allow the water valve

to shut o completely, or may extend the ﬁ ll time beyond what your Washer controls allow,

causing your Washer to turn o . A time limit is built into the controls to prevent ﬂ ooding in your

home if a hose becomes loose.

The water faucets must be within 4 feet / 122 cm 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 / 275 cm for faucets that

are further away from the back of your Washer.

To avoid the possibility of water damage:

• Have water faucets easily accessible.

• Turn o faucets when the washer is not in use.

• Periodically check that there is no leakage from the water inlet hose ﬁ ttings.

Drain facility

The recommended height of the standpipe is 39 in / 99 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 to the washer at the factory.

Flooring

For best performance, you must install your washer on a solidly constructed ﬂ oor. Wood ﬂ oors

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.

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. Frozen water can damage the belts, the

pump, hoses, and other components.

installing your washer

IMPORTANT NOTE TO INSTALLER

Please read the following instructions carefully before installing your washer.

These instructions should be retained for future reference.

We recommend you hire a professional to install this washer.

Installation ﬂ ow chart

STEP 1 Selecting a Location

Before you install the washer, make sure the location:

• Has a hard, level surface without carpeting or ﬂ ooring that may obstruct ventilation.

• Is away from direct sunlight.

• Has adequate ventilation.

• Is not exposed to freezing temperatures (temperatures under 32 °F or 0 °C).

• Is away from heat sources such as oil or gas.

• Has enough space so that the washer doesn’t rest on its power cord.STEP 2

Connecting the water and the drain

Connecting the water supply hose

Before installing the water supply hoses, make sure there are

rubber gaskets inside the ﬁ ttings at both ends of each new

water hose. Installing the water supply hoses without rubber

gaskets can cause water leakage.

When you initially install the washer, be sure to use new hoses.

Failing to do so may result in a water leakage or overﬂ ow and

may damage your property.

Do not connect multiple water supply hoses together to

increase the length of the supply hose. Hoses connected this

way can leak and the leakage can cause electrical shock. If a

hose is too short, replace the hose with a longer, high pressure

hose.

1. Connect the ends of the water supply hoses to the HOT and COLD

faucets.

2. Tighten the ﬁ ttings by hand until they are snug, and then tighten them an

additional two-thirds of a turn with a plier.

When you fasten the ﬁ ttings, do not fasten them too tightly or apply

tape or sealant to the faucets or water supply intakes. This can

damage the ﬁ ttings.

After you have connected the water supply hoses to the faucets,

ensure that they are connected correctly by pulling the water supply

hoses downwards

3. Place the unconnected ends of the hoses into a bucket and open the

faucets connected to the two water supply hoses for 10 or 15 seconds to

remove any foreign substances from the hoses. Close the faucets before

continuing.

4. Connect the ends of the water supply hoses to the water supply intake

connections at the back of the washer.

The water supply hose connected to the HOT faucet must be

connected to the hot water supply intake and the water hose

connected to the COLD faucet must be connected to the COLD

water supply intake.

5. Tighten the ﬁ ttings by hand until they are snug, and then tighten them

an additional two-thirds of a turn with a plier.

To ensure the correct water usage, connect both the HOT and

COLD water faucets. If either or both are not connected, an “4E”

(no ﬁ ll) error can occur.

If you do not want to use the HOT water supply hose, insert

the water intake cap into the HOT water supply intake hole. In

this case, you must select the Tap Cold option for the water

temperature. If you select the Tap Cold option, all the lamps for

the water temperature options are turned o .

Conﬁ rm that the water supply hoses are not twisted or bent. If the

hoses are twisted or bent, the hoses can leak and cause electric

shock due to the water leakage.

6. Turn on the HOT and COLD water supplies and check all the water

supply intake connections and the faucets for water leaks.

installing your washer

Connecting the drain hose

The end of the drain hose can be positioned in three ways:

In a Wall standpipe or Floor standpipe

The height of end of standpipe must be no lower than 39 in (99 cm) and no

higher than 96 in (245 cm).

If drain pipe are built into the wall with water valves (A), fasten the drain hose

to the water hose.

Make sure that the connection between the drain hose and the

standpipe is not airtight.

In a laundry tub

The height of the tub must be no lower than 39 in (99 cm) and no higher than

96 in (245 cm).

Assemble the supplied Hose guide at the end of the drain hose, and put the

hanger on laundry tub.

And fasten the drain hose to the leg of laundry tub.

Connect the hose guide (A) within 3~5 in (7.6~12.7 cm)* from the end of

the drain hose. If the drain hose is extended beyond the end of the hose

guide, mold or microorganisms could spread inside the washer.

Drain Hose can be installed until 96 in (245cm) maximum. But drain

capability can be reduced at this height. It causes the washer to have

odor, because of remained water in the drain system.

If the drain hose is installed below 39 in (99 cm), water can be drained in cycles due to a

siphon phenomenon. It causes the washer to display a “4E” error code.

STEP 3

Leveling your washer

See if the washer is level by checking the position of the tub:

1. Slide the washer into position.

2. Open the lid of the washer, and pour the water into the tub to

just below the pulsator level.

3. If the washer is level, the pulsator is positioned at the center of the

water as shown in the ﬁ gure. If not, level your washer by turning the

front leveling feet clockwise or counterclockwise as necessary.

Turn the front leveling feet clockwise to raise the washer, and

counterclockwise to lower the washer.

The number of leveling feet di ers with the model.

operating instructions

WARNING: To reduce the risk of ﬁ re, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance,

follow basic precautions, including the following:

LOADING YOUR WASHER

• Fill the tub with dry, unfolded clothes evenly around in order to enhance washing e ciency and prevent

excess wear, or wrinkling of the load.

- For optimal washing performance, make sure the laundry is piled up evenly.

• Wash delicate items such as bras, hosiery, and other lingerie in the Delicates cycle

with similar lightweight items.

• When washing big bulky items or a few smaller items that don’t ﬁ ll the tub

completely – a rug, a pillow, stu ed toys, or one or two sweaters, for example –

add a few towels to improve spin performance.

• Do not insert bulky items except for Bedding in this cycle.

During the spin cycle, the washer may add additional water to redistribute the clothes and correct an

imbalance inside the drum.

• When washing heavily soiled loads, do not overload your washer to ensure good cleaning results.

• Inﬂ atable items may cause damage to the laundry or the machine during the wash or drying

process.

• Regardless of the size, blankets or quilts are safer and cleaner to wash one item at a time.

Two di erent-sized blankets in the same load may compromise the drying performance due to

unbalanced loads.

To input a blanket

Fold the blanket into the blanket-speciﬁ c net as shown, and then insert in the tub below the plastic

area of the tub.

Make sure the laundry is inserted completely.

• Any exposed part of the laundry may cause damage to the machine or the laundry itself, or a water

leak.

• Do not overload the tub. Make sure no part of the laundry is exposed outside of the tub.

To add a forgotten item:

1. Press the Start/Pause button to pause the washer.

2. Wait for the door to unlock automatically, and then open the door.

3. Add the item, close the door, and then press the Start/Pause button. The cycle will resume.

GETTING STARTED

1. Load your washer.

2. Add liquid (or powder) detergent and additives to the dispenser (see pages 24~26).

3. Select the appropriate cycle and options for the load (see pages 18~23).

4. Close the lid.

5. Press the Start/Pause button.

6. The Wash Indicator light illuminates.

7. The estimated cycle time will appear in the display.

The time may ﬂ uctuate to indicate the time remaining in the cycle better.

The actual time required for a cycle may di er from the estimated time in the display depending on the

water pressure, water temperature, detergent, and laundry.

8. Before your washer starts to ﬁ ll, it will make a series of clicking noises to check the door lock and do a

quick drain.

• When the cycle is complete, the Door Lock light will go out and “End” (WA50M7450A*) / “0”

(WA45M7050A*) will appear in the display.

• Pressing the Power button cancels the cycle and stops your washer.

•

The Wash, Rinse , and Spin indicator lights will illuminate during those portions of the cycle.

ATC (AUTO TEMPERATURE CONTROL)

ATC is the control function that the washer controls water temperature with temperature sensor (thermistor).

Because there are numerous water temperatures depending on the customer’s environments (cold

areas, warm areas, various water temperatures, settings of heater temperature, etcs.), ATC function in

our washer maintains the certain level of wash temperature to output the best washing performance at

each cycle.

If you select normal & heavy duty cycles, those cycles are the regulation and UL cycle. Since new

washer must reduce the amount of energy usage at ﬁ rst priority, customer will notice more cold water

entering the washer. But This is Normal, not a problem.

In those regulation cycles, Hot temperature is similar to acceptable adult bath-water temperature and

warm temperature is similar to comfortable swimming-pool water temperature.

If customers want to wash clothes in speciﬁ c water temperature, customers should choose a di erent

cycle at each temperature (Hot/Warm/Eco Warm)

DETERGENT USE

Your washer is designed to use high e ciency (HE) detergents.

• For best cleaning results, use high e ciency detergent such as Tide

HE, Wisk HE, Cheer HE or Gain HE*. High e ciency detergents

contain suds suppressors that reduce or eliminate suds. When fewer

suds are produced, the load tumbles more e ciently and cleaning is

maximized.

Regular detergent is not recommended. 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 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.

• Never exceed the manufacturer’s recommendations when adding detergent.

• This compartment holds liquid detergent for the main wash cycle, which is added to the

load at the beginning of the cycle.

• When using powdered detergent, remove the liquid detergent compartment from the

detergent drawer. The washer will not dispense powdered detergent from the liquid

detergent compartment.

To add detergent to the automatic dispenser:

1. Open the dispenser drawer.

2. Load the recommended amount of liquid (or powder) detergent into the detergent

compartment before you start your wash.

3. Close the drawer slowly and smoothly to avoid spilling, splashing, or premature dispensing of

the contents.

It is normal for a small amount of water to remain in the

dispenser compartments at the end of the cycle.

Do not put chlorine bleach in the dispenser drawer.

Loading the Liquid (or Powder) 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 – liquid.

When using powdered detergent, remove the liquid

detergent compartment from the detergent drawer. The

washer will not dispense powdered detergent from the

liquid detergent compartment.

Loading the Bleach compartment

(Liquid chlorine bleach only)

1. Add chlorine bleach to the bleach compartment.

DO NOT exceed the MAX FILL line.

• Avoid splashing or over–ﬁ lling the compartment.

• Your washer automatically dispenses bleach into the

tub at the appropriate time.

2. 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 ﬁ bers 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.

• Using Self Clean, you can clean the drum without using a

cleansing agent.

• Never use Self Clean when laundry is in the washing

machine. This may cause damage to the laundry or a

problem with the washing machine.

The Self Clean Auto Indicator Function

• If the “Self Clean” indicator is lit after a wash, it indicates

that tub (drum) cleaning is required. In this case, remove

the laundry from the washing machine, turn the power on,

and clean the drum by running Self Clean.

• If you do not run Self Clean, the “Self Clean” indicator

turns o . However, the “Self Clean” indicator will light

again after two washes. Not running Self Clean at this point

will not cause a problem with the washing machine.

• Although the Self Clean Auto Indicator appears once a

month or so, the frequency may di er depending on the

number of times the washing machine is used.

** 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 e ective cleaning.)

The clothes washer can not ensure these temperatures because the actual temperature of the water entering

your washer depends 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 e ective

cleaning. In this situation, you will need to adjust the water temperature by selecting a warm setting, adding

some hot water to the MAX FILL line, or using your Washer’s heating option, if available.
