Water Level Measurement

The machine is fitted with a pressure sensor, which can control the fill to any water level. The
pressure sensor is incorporated within the Motor Control Module and cannot be removed. The
pressure tube connects from the Motor Control Module to the air bell at the bottom of the outer tub,
and is part of the harness assembly. Care must be taken when removing or refitting the pressure
tube to the pressure sensor as too much force can damage the device.
3.7.1 Manual Water Level
The agitator has 5 levels marked on its stem that can be used to help the user select the correct
water level. Select the correct water level by using the mark nearest to the top of the clothes.
The levels marked on the agitator are a guide for the clothes and do not correspond exactly to the
water level.
Occasionally water may be added during agitation. This is to maintain the water level due to the
release of air trapped in the garments.
For example: If the garments sat between the medium and high marks on the agitator, choosing a
medium water level would be better than choosing a high water level. Alternatively additional
garments could be added so that the garments were brought closer to the high mark.
