OPERATING YOUR WASHER
To obtain the best washing results, you must operate your washer properly.
This section gives you this important information.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
• Electrical earth is required on this washer.
• If it does not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
• Don’t earth to a gas pipe.
• Don’t change the power supply cord plug.
• Check with a qualified electrician if you are not
sure the washer is properly earthed.
For your personal safety, this washer must be earthed.
This washer is equipped with a power supply cord ‘A’ having a earthing plug ‘B’.
To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating
earthing-type plug socket ‘C’. If a mating plug socket is not available, it is the
personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have the proper earthed
plug socket installed by a qualified electrician.
WARNING Electrical shock hazard : Failure to follow these instructions could result in death
or serious injury.
A
B
C
Recommended earthing method
• Close zippers, snaps, and hooks to avoid
snagging other items.
Remove pin, buckles, and other hard
objects to avoid scratching the washer
interior.
• Empty pockets and pull them inside out.
• Turn down cuffs and turn synthetic knits
inside out to avoid pilling.
• Tie strings and sashes to avoid tangling.
• Treat spots and stains.
(See 'REMOVING STAINS' on page 14)
Preparing clothes for washing
DWDNU1221(영)_영국향.indd 8 15. 3. 11. 오후 2:54

• Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled ones, even if they would normally be washed together.
• Separate dark colors from light colors, colorfast items from non-colorfast item.
Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light) Separate clothes according to amount of soil.
Color (White, Lights, Darks) Separate white clothes from colored clothes.
Lint (Lint producers, Collectors) Wash lint producers and lint collectors separately.
Sorting
• Drop items into washer loosely. Items should move
easily through wash water for best cleaning and
wrinkle-free results.
• Load washer properly and select correct load size
setting.
Overloading and selecting a setting too small for
the wash load can :
- Cause poor cleaning
- Increase wrinkling
- Create excessive lint
- Wear out items faster (because of pilling)
• Mix large and small items in each load. Load evenly
to maintain washer balance.
An unbalanced load can make the washer vibrate
during spin or not complete spin cycle.
• Reduce wash time when using a small load size
setting. Load with only a few small items needs
less wash time.
• Use a large load size setting to reduce wrinkling
with permanent press clothes and some synthetic
knits. These items should have more room to move
in the water than heavy items. (towels, jeans)
Loading
1Detergent case 2Adding fabric softener
• If desired, add measured liquid fabric
softener to the softener inlet.
• Pour liquid fabric softener into the
dispenser using the amount
recommended on the package.
• Do not exceed the maximum fill line.
Overfilling can cause early dispensing of
the fabric softener which could stain
clothes.
• Do not open the detergent case when
water is supplied.
• Avoid pouring fabric softener directly on
the clothes.
Adding detergent
Main wash
Pre wash
Fabric softener
• Please use only the powder detergent for the front loader washing machine.
• Please use the proper amount of detergent in conformity with the instruction of the detergent manufacturer.
• A use of a large amount of detergent more than the recommended amount can cause many soapsuds and
the overload to the motor. In addition to, this will deteriorate the washing and rinse performance.
• If too much detergent used, it can occur that the detergent directly falls down to the inside cavity. In this
case, remove the detergent case and clean the cavity after washing cycle is finished. (See page 13)
