Basic Information
Prevent Injury And Damage To The Washer
• All repairs and servicing must be performed by an authorized servicer unless specifically recommended in the
Use & Care Guide. Use only authorized factory parts.
• Do not tamper with controls.
• Do not install or store the washer where it will be exposed to the weather.
• Do not install on carpet. Install washer on a solid floor. It may be necessary to reinforce the floor to prevent
vibration or movement.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect this appliance from the power supply before attempting any user
maintenance. Turning the controls to the OFF position does not disconnect this appliance from the power supply.
• To prevent injury, do not reach into the washer while parts are moving. Before loading, unloading or adding
items, push in the cycle selector knob and allow the drum to coast to a complete stop before reaching inside.
• This washer is equipped with an electrical overload protector. The motor will stop if it becomes overheated.
The washer will automatically restart after a cool down period of up to 30 minutes, if the washer has not been
manually turned off during this time.
• Failure to comply with these warnings could result in serious personal injuries.

Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) System

This method of temperature control uses a thermistor input from the drum water Negative Temperature Coefficient
Thermistor to sense the water temperature in the drum. It also controls the amount of hot water used for a given fill
and temperature selection.
The following are the temperature ranges for the wash/rinse cycles:
Temperature Setting Temperature Range
Sanitize 67°C (152°F) +/- 5°C
Hot 55°C (131°F) +/- 5°C
Eco Hot 45°C (113°F) +/- 5°C
Warm 29°C (84°F) +/- 4°C
Eco Warm 27°C (81°F) +/- 3°C
Warm Rinse 24°C (75°F) +/- 3°C
Cold 15°C (59°F) +/- 5°C

Water Level

The spinner tub vanes must not be in water during this check.
Check is taken at the back and center of the washgroup. Water Pressure must be between 20 and 120 P.S.I.

Installation Cycle

This cycle checks the basic functionality of the unit. It also verifies that the water hoses have been hooked up
properly, hot to hot and cold to cold. To verify that the hoses have been hooked up properly, the unit turns on
the hot water valve until the water reaches 130 mm (5.11 inches) in height. The temperature in the drum has to
increase from ambient to a specified value for the algorithm to recognize the water lines have been properly hooked
up. If the temperature doesn't increase to the specified value either within the 130 mm fill level or a given amount
of time, the "CHECK HOSES" warning will be displayed, the machine will drop out of the install cycle and drain what
water has accumulated. When this happens verify that the hoses were properly connected and if they have been,
then push the Cancel button (clears the message) and the unit is ready for use.
If water remains in the unit after following the procedure above, move the cycle knob to the Drain Spin Cycle and
drain the rest of the water from the tub. When the drum starts moving, the water has been completely drained and
the cycle can then be cancelled.
