Causes
• When the laundry amount is large at the HIGH water level, the
machine sometimes fi lls automatically. When level goes down, the
machine fi lls automatically.
• When the laundry is already soaked with water before the wash is
started, or if there is water in the tub before the wash is started, the
water level will sometimes be higher.
• With light laundry made of synthetic or blended fabric, the water level
will sometimes be lower.
• When the laundry is unbalanced during spin, rinsing and automatic
correction of unbalanced laundry will begin. Later spinning will return
to normal condition.
• Do not leave more than 15 seconds while powered on. Fill the water
while powered off or after pushing the start button.
• Keep the level of the softener indicated to prevent the softener from
fl owing immediately.
• If you close the softener drawer forcefully, softener may spill out of
the drawer.
• To suppress detergent suds build-up, the washing tub turns slowly
and quickly.
• Only the [WATER LEVEL] button is available after the machine
begins washing.
• To change the setting, press the [POWER OFF] button and reconfi gure
the setting.
• When there is water in the tub, the operation starts with the draining.
After spin cycle is fi nished, the tub will be fi lled with water.
• When the water level is set to very low, water sometimes will not fl ow
through the lint fi lter. Double Cascade does not operate when these
settings have been selected.
• Check if there is power failure.
• Check if the power fuse has blown out or the breaker is actuated.
• Check if the power plug is plugged in thoroughly.
• Check if the "power switch'' has been pressed.
• Has the water faucet been turned on?
• Check if the [START/HOLD] button has been pressed.
• Has the machine been programmed under [RESERVE] timer?
• Check if the water faucet is turned on.
• Is the water supply cut off?
• Check if the connection of the water supply hose is clogged with dirt.
• Please refer to page 17 for cleaning water supply hose filter.
Washing time will be longer because of laundry unbalance, water
feeding and draining condition.
In the case when open the lid after setting the [CHILD LOCK] mode, it
will force the draining process. Pull out the power plug from the outlet
and replug it after 5 seconds.
This is a reminder for a user not to put a hand and/or any object into the
tub. It is not out of order.
w To turn off the buzzer, close the lid.
This is the sound of the liquid to maintain the balance during spinning.
Normally after the water supply failure, the water will become muddy.
Detach the water feeding hose and turn on the water faucet to release to
due muddy water. Fix water hose and start washing.
In this case, [POWER ON] and [START/HOLD] buttons need to be
pressed again after electricity is restored. Then the machine will resume
operation automatically from beginning of the stopped process.
