Your washing machine has separate compartments for dispensing detergent a\
nd fabric softener. 
Add all laundry additives to the correct compartment before starting your washing machine.
Do not open the detergent drawer while your washing machine is running o\
r you might be 
exposed to hot water or steam.
1. Pull out the detergent drawer on the left side of the control 
panel.

softener compartment  if required. DO NOT exceed the 
MAX FILL () line.

amount of laundry detergent into the prewash 
compartment . 
When washing large items do NOT use the following 
detergetnt types.

Concentrated or thick fabric softener and conditioner 
must be diluted with a little water before being poured 
into the dispenser (prevents the overflow from becoming 
blocked).
Be careful that the fabric softener does not overflow, when you close the detergent drawer 
after adding fabric softener into the rinse detergent compartment.
Liquid	Detergent	(Selected	models)
To use liquid detergent, place the liquid detergent box into the main was\

cleaning and maintaining your 
washing machine
Keeping your washing machine clean improves its performance, wards off 
unnecessary repairs, and lengthens its life.
ECO	DRUM	CLEAN
This course is a self-cleaning course that removes mold that may occur inside the washing machine.
1. Press the Power button.
2. Turn the Cycle Selector to the ECO Drum Clean course.
•	You can only use the Delay End function.
•	The water temperature during the ECO Drum Clean is 
set	to	60	˚C.
You cannot change the temperature.
3. Place the appropriate amount of cleansing agent into the 
detergent compartment  and close the detergent drawer 
(when cleaning the drum using a cleansing agent).
•	Be sure to use the recommended cleansing agent for 
cleaning the drum.
•	There are powder-type and liquid-type drum cleansing 
agents. The liquid-type cleaning agent is only available 
with liquid detergent box (option).
4. Press the Start/Pause button.
•	If you press the Start/Pause button, the ECO Drum Clean course begins.
•	Using the ECO Drum Clean course, you can clean the drum without using a \
cleansing agent.
•	Never use the ECO Drum Clean course when laundry is in the washing machi\
ne. This may 
result in damage to the texture or a problem with the washing machine.
•	 In	the	ECO	Drum	Clean	course,	never	use	normal	detergent.
•	 Use	only	1/10	of	the	amount	of	the	drum	cleansing	agent	recommended	by	the	
cleansing agent manufacturer.
•	Since using a chlorine bleaching agent may discolour the product, be sure to use only 
oxygen bleaching agents.
•	Powder-type cleansing agent: Use a [powder-type bleaching agent] or a [cleansing agent for 
drum cleaning only].
•	Liquid-type cleansing agent: Use a [liquid-type oxygen bleaching agent] \
or a [cleansing agent 
for drum cleaning only].

03	CLEANING	AND	MAINTAINING
The	ECO	Drum	Clean	Auto	Alarm	Function
•	If the “ECO Drum Clean” indicator on the display and the 
lamp on the Cycle Selector are 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 performing the ECO Drum Clean course.
•	If you do not perform the ECO Drum Clean course, the 
“ECO Drum Clean” indicator on the display and the lamp 
on the Cycle Selector are turned off. However, the “ECO 
Drum Clean” indicator on the display and the lamp on the 
Cycle Selector are turned on again after two washes are 
performed. However, this will not result in a problem with the 
washing machine.
•	Although generally, the ECO Drum Clean Auto Alarm 
appears once a month or so, the frequency may differ 
depending on the number of times the washing machine is 
used.
•	 In	case 	of 	the 	alarm, 	please 	also 	clean 	the 	debris 	filter	
(refer 	to 	“Cleaning 	the 	debris 	filter” 	section 	on 	page	
34). Otherwise the performance of the bubble function 
may lower down.
DRAINING	THE	WASHING	MACHINE	IN	AN	EMERGENCY
1. Unplug the washing machine from the power supply.
2. Open the filter cover by pressing down and pulling its 
handle.
3. Open the emergency drain cap by pulling it. 
4. Hold the cap on the end of the emergency drain tube and 
slowly pull it out about 15 cm.
5. Allow all the water to flow into a bowl.
Remain water maybe more than you expected. Prepare 
larger bowl.
6. Reinsert the emergency drain cap and the drain tube.
7. Replace the filter-cover.

CLEANING	THE	DEBRIS	FILTER
We recommend cleaning the debris filter 5 or 6 times a year, or when the error message of “5E” is 
displayed. (Refer to “Draining the washing machine in an emergency”\
 in the previous section.)
If foreign substances accumulate debris filter, the performance of the bubble function will be degraded.
Before cleaning the debris filter, make sure to unplug the power cord.
1. Remove the remaining water first (refer to “Draining the 
washing machine in an emergency” on page 33.)
If you separate the filter without draining the remaining 
water, the remaining water may trickle out.
2. Open the filter cover by using a key or coin.
3. Unscrew the emergency drain cap by turning it to the left 
and drain off all the water.
4. Unscrew the debris filter cap.
5. Wash any dirt or other material from the debris filter. Make 
sure the drain pump propeller behind the debris filter is not 
blocked.
6. Replace the debris filter cap.
7. Replace the filter cover.
Do not open the debris filter cap while the machine is running or hot
water may flow out.
•	 Make	sure	to	replace	the	filter	cap	after	the	filter	cleaning.	If	the	filter	is	out	of	the	machine,	your
washing machine may malfunction or leak water.
•	 The	filter	should	be	fully	assembled	after	the	filter	cleaning.
CLEANING	THE	EXTERIOR
1. Wipe the washing machine surfaces, including the control panel, with a soft cloth using a 
nonabrasive household detergent.
2. Use a soft cloth to dry the surfaces.
3. Do not pour water onto the washing machine.

CLEANING	THE	WATER	HOSE	MESH	FILTER
You should clean the water hose mesh filter at least once a year, or when the error message of “4E” is 
displayed:
1. Turn off the water supply to the washing machine.
2. Unscrew the hose from the back of the washing machine. To prevent water from gushing out 
due to the air pressure in the hose, cover the hose with a cloth. 
3. Gently pull out the mesh filter from the end of the hose using a pair of pliers and rinse it under 
water until clean. Also clean inside and outside the threaded connector.
4. Push the filter back into place.

REPAIRING	A	FROZEN	WASHING	MACHINE
If the temperature drops below freezing and your washing machine is frozen:
1. Unplug the washing machine.
2. Pour warm water over the tap to loosen the water supply hose.
3. Remove the water supply hose and soak it in warm water.
4. Pour warm water into the washing machine drum and let it sit for 10 minu\
tes.
5. Reconnect the water supply hose to the water tap and check if the water \
supply and drain 
are operating normal.
STORING	YOUR	WASHING	MACHINE
If you need to store your washing machine for an extended time, it’s better to drain and disconnect it. 
Washing machines can be damaged if water is left in the hoses and internal components before storage.
1. Select the Cotton cycle and add bleach to the bleach compartment. Then, push the Quick 
Wash button and run your washing machine through the cycle without a load.
2. Turn the water taps off and disconnect the inlet hoses.
3. Unplug your washing machine from the electrical outlet, and leave your washing machine 
door open to allow air to circulate inside the tumbler. 
If your washing machine has been stored in below-freezing temperatures, allow time for any 
leftover water in your washing machine to thaw out before using it.
