20. This appliance must be connected to proper electrical outlet with the correct
electrical supply.
21. Proper grounding must be ensured to reduce the risk of shock and fire. DO
NOT CUT OR REMOVE THE GROUNDING PLUG. If you do not have a
three-prong electric receptacle outlet in the wall, have a certified electrician
install the proper receptacle. The wall receptacle MUST be properly grounded.
22. Hydrogen gas may be produced if the water heater has not been used in more
then 2 weeks. This could be explosive and can explode under certain
circumstances. If this is the case, before using this appliance turn on all the hot
faucets and let the hot water run for a few minutes. This will let the trapped
hydrogen escape. During this process do not turn on an electric appliance,
smoke, light a match/ lighter or use a flame to avoid an accident, as hydrogen
gas is flammable and can explode.
23. Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in,
or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive
substances, as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
24. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing
unless specifically recommended in the user-repair instructions that you
understand and have skills to carry out.
25. Do not use heat dry to articles containing foam rubber or similarly textured
rubber-like materials.
26. Clean lint trap before and after each load.
27. Do not place items exposed to cooking oils in your dryer. Items contaminated

N o te : Hot water needs to be at a temperature of at least 120 degree F 140
Degree F (49 Degree C - 60 Degree C) for the soap to dissolve and to avoid
soap residue remaining on clothes. If your water temperature is not at above
described level when washing your clothes, you need to regulate your water
heater to maintain that temperature.
Lo a d in g th e W a sh e r:
• Load each item loosely.
• Separate the white and colored clothes. Separate heavy clothes from light clothes.
• Carefully check all pockets and cuffs for small items. They can easily slide in to the
tub and may damage the tub.
• Pre-treat all stains and heavily soiled areas for best results.

Pro p e r Use o f Disp e n se r:
The detergent/ softener dispenser is located on the upper left corner of the washer.
Open the dispenser by pulling it out. You will see that there are four compartments.
"1 " Co m p a rtm e n t: This is used for liquid detergent for pre-wash. This is used
when you want to pre-wash heavily soiled dirty clothes before going to actual wash
cycle.
"2 " Co m p a rtm e n t: This is used for liquid detergent for actual wash cycle.
"A" Co m p a rtm e n t: This is used for liquid fabric softener.
"C" Co m p a rtm e n t: This is used for bleach.
("2" Compartment-
For liquid detergent)
("1" Compartment-
For pre-wash liquid detergent)
("A" Compartment-
For liquid fabric softener)
Pro p e r Use o f Fa b ric So fte n e r:
• Pour in liquid fabric softener into the compartment as recommended by the
manufacturer.
• Do not exceed the level in the compartment to avoid overflow.

Pro p e r Use o f De te rg e n t:
Low-Susding is recommended for front load style washers. This type of detergent
prevents damage to your washing machine; which may be caused by excess
amount of suds entering the condensing compartment.
N o te : You can use less or more detergent depending on the size of the load, water
type in your area whether it is soft or hard and whether the clothes are
heavily soiled or lightly soiled. Besides the performance of the washing
machine the quality of the detergent also affect the washing result.
Wa rn in g : • Never pour fabric softener directly onto clothes as it may stain your
clothes or you may get spots on your clothes.
• Do not use powder form of softener into dispenser it may clog up the
dispenser. This dispenser is only designed for liquid only.
Dry e r O p e ra tio n :
• Your dryer is "co n d e n sin g ty p e " which means it requires no venting. During
the drying process, the evaporating water from your clothes is condensed by the
machine and drained in the form of water out of the drain hose. The machine
uses small amount of fresh water that is automatically fed to the machine from the
inlet hose. You may hear that the machine is drawing water during the dry cycle.
• With this vent-less design, you can install the dryer under the counter to have a
built-in look or any other enclosed area.
N o te : The drying operation of this unit is different then other dryers you may have
used in the past. Large household and laundromat dryer operate on 220
volt which supply more elctricity and allows faster drying time. Your washer
& dryer combo unit operates on 115 volts; which supply less electricity,
resulting in longer drying time.
• You can select drying time from 2 settings. 120 mintutes for High Temp and up to
80 minutes for Low Temp. See below the recommended
temperature and time setting for different clothes:
Dry Tim e Se le ctio n
120 minutes
He a t Ty p e
Ty p e s o f clo th e s
For jeans and towel
etc.
High
80 minutes
Low
For light garments such
as bed sheets, skirts,
socks etc.

/
N o te : For full loads, you may want to remove
/
to
of the load and dry the
3
2
remaining clothes seperately. This will be an efficient way to dry your clothes
and will not take as long to dry. For less than full loads, you may want to
reduce drying time. This will prevent over drying of your clothes.
Ma n u a l O p e ra tio n o f th e Dry e r:
• To operate the dryer manually, simply load machine with wet clothes, turn the
"Dryer Selector Knob" to the desired time and push the power button "ON".
N o te : When operating the dryer, you must keep "Wash Cycle Selector" knob in
the "OFF" position.
Au to m a tic O p e ra tio n o f th e Dry e r:
• For the automatic operation, simply set the Dry Cycle Selector Knob to the desired
time at the beginning of the wash cycle. When the wash cycle is finished, the
dryer will turn on automatically.
N o te : The dryer will not turn on automatically if the "No Spin" button is pushed in.
You must keep the "No Spin" button in an out position in order to go from
wash function to dryer function automatically. The dryer will not come on
automatically after the wool cycle.
N o te : When washing full load, we recommend that you keep the spin cycle in the
"OFF" position to prevent the unit from going to dry mode automatically at
the end of cycle if the spin cycle was in "ON" position. This will give you the
1
1
flexibility to take out / 3 to / 2 of the load and dry the remainder. The
advantage is that your clothes will dry evenly and more quickly.
Lo a d in g th e Dry e r:
1. Sort clothes for drying. Seperate dark and light colored items, like you do for
washing. Check for stains that have not been removed in washing. Dryer heat
may permanently set some stains. Properly dried clothes will need minimum of
care when removed from dryer.
2. Load up dryer with washed clothes. For optimum result, use dryer load of similar
weight, fabric and construction. Place small items in a mesh bag to prevent from
tangling. Do not overload the dryer. Add fabric softener sheet if desired.
3. Select the drying time depending on the fabric type and load size.
4. Wait for the drying cycle to finish before opening the door.
N o te : Do not over dry your clothes. over drying can cause shrinkage,
harshness and wrinkling of fabric.

Troubleshooting
Wa sh e r d o e s n o t o p e ra te :
• Check if unit is plugged in. The plug may have come loose.
• Check if the electrical wall receptacle is of proper voltage.
• Check if the circuit breaker needs to be reset or if the fuse needs to be replaced.
• Check if the unit is in “Off” mode.
• Check if the washer is overloaded: load may need to be re-balanced and clothes
may need to be redistributed.
• Check if the door is open. You may have to close the door properly.
• Check if the control knob is set properly. You may have to adjust the control knob.
• The washer pauses in some cycles. This is normal in cycle, which has short soak
period where your clothes are being soaked for very short period of time. You will
not hear washer operation for a short period of time. When the soak time is over,
it will start automatically.
Pro b le m s w ith w a te r:
• Not enough water coming out: Water faucet may need to be turned on fully.
Water hoses may be tangled up or wrinkled up. Straighten up hoses. Check water
saver selection, it may need to be readjusted.
• Water Temperature is incorrect: Check your water heater temperature. Hot water
needs to be at a temperature at least 120˚F -140˚F (49˚C – 60˚C). Check to
make sure the inlet hoses are properly connected. (e.g. hot to hot & cold to cold)
• Water leaks: This is due to not properly installing drain hose or fill hoses. Your
home drain may be clogged or having constant water pressure. You may need to
tighten hoses, check the plumbing or call a plumber.
• Water pumped out before the cycle is completed: It happens if you open the door
in the middle of cycle.
• Water will not drain: This is due to not installing your drain hose properly. You
may need to connect the drain hose properly. Check the position of the drain
hose. In order to drain properly, make sure that top of drain outlet is less than 4
ft. (1.2 m) above the floor.

Wa sh e r is m a k in g n o ise :
• Washer may need to be reinstalled. (Check washer installation section)
• Washer load may need to be re-balanced, as the load may be uneven.
• Coins, loose change, buttons or other heavy objects could make noise
(read Operating Guide – Normal Operating Sounds).
• Squealing Sound: Due to overloaded wash tub.
• Vibration Noise: Due to not leveling washer properly on the floor and uneven
distribution of clothes in the tub.
Pro b le m s w ith clo th e s:
• Clothes are too wrinkled: this is due to improper sorting, overloading and
washing in too hot water repeatedly. Avoid overloading and resort your load. Do
not mix heavy clothes such as work clothes with light clothes such as blouses, light
shirts and delicate items. You may need to wash in warm or cold water.
• Have soap residue: detergent may not be dissolving in water. Check water
temperature or you need to add detergent as wash tub is being filled with water
before you load your clothes to avoid soap residue on clothes.
• Spots or stains on your clothes: this is due to incorrect use of fabric softener. You
may need to follow proper manufacturer instructions on the container and follow
proper directions for using the softener.
• Clothes are grayed or yellowed: this is due to not pouring enough detergent for
large loads. You may have to add more detergent to the load.
• Clothes are ripped & have holes/ excessive wear & tear: this is due to sharp
objects such as pins and belt buckles left in pockets. You will need to remove small
loose sharp objects. Fasten belts, zippers, metal snaps etc. Check if you are using
undiluted bleach. Never add undiluted bleach to wash.
Dry e r d o e s n o t o p e ra te :
• Check if unit is unplugged. The plug may have come loose.
• Check if the circuit breaker needs to be reset or if the fuse needs to be replaced
• Check if the unit is in "OFF" mode. Press the "ON" button again.
