• To use the CHECK PROGRAM (QC TEST MODE), press WATER LEVEL and POWER button ON without

depositing any laundry.

• In QC TEST MODE all LEDs are on and press START(PAUSE) button to check over the following items.

Many washing problems involve poor soil & stain removal, residues of lint and scum, and fabric damage. For
satisfactory washing results, follow these instructions.

• Use correct amount of Detergent for load size, amount of soil

and water Hardness.

• Use WARM or HOT water for normal soil.

Different Water Temperature may be required according to soil
type. 

• Reduce load size.
• Wash with JEAN or Soak(SOAK) & JEAN wash cycle for heavy

soiled laundry.

• Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled ones.
• Pretreat stain and heavy soil according to directions shown on

page 11.

• Rub the stain with bar soap. Wash.
• Do not overfill fabric softener dispenser and do not pour liquid

fabric softener directly onto fabric. 
See page 14 for more instructions.

• Keep the recommendations against Scrud(waxy buildup). (refer

to scrud page14.)

• Use correct amount of Detergent for load size, amount of soil

and water Hardness.

• To restore discolored load of whites, use rust remover safe for

fabric.

• Install nonprecipitating water softener or an iron filter in your

water supply system for an ongoing problem.

• Before washing, run water for a few minutes to clear lines.

• Wash lint givers eg towels, flannelette sheets, separately from lint

collectors eg synthetic fabrics and remove tissues in pockets
before wash. See page 11 for sorting and caring before loading.

• Do not overload the washer

• Do not overload the washer.
• Some Detergents need to be pre-dissolved, check the Detergent

instructions. Try pre-dissolving the Detergent.

• Increase Water Temperature using HOT water safe for fabric.
• Use proper amount of Detergent.

• Never pour chlorine bleach directly on fabric. 

See page 13 for adding liquid bleach.

• Fasten zippers, hooks, and buckles.
• Remove objects in pockets. See page 11 for caring before

loading.

• Do not overload the washer.
