Solutions& Preventive Measures
Poor soil
removal
Blue Stains
Black or gray
marks on
clothes
Yellow or
brown rust
stains
Lint
Residue or
Detergent
Holes, tears,
or snags
Undiluted fabric softener
dispensed directly onto fabric
A buildup caused by the interaction
of fabric softener and Detergent
can flake off and mark clothes
Not enough Detergent
Iron or manganese in water
supply, water pipes, or water
heater
Incorrect sorting
Incorrect sorting
Overloading the washer
Overloading the washer
Undissolved Detergent
Use too much Dtergent
Incorrect use of chlorine bleach.
Unfastened zippers, hooks,
buckles 
Ribs, tears and broken threads
Overloading the washer
Degradation of fabric
Not enough Detergent
Wash Water Temperaturetoo low.
Overloading the washer
Incorrect wash cycle
Incorrect sorting
Do not pretreat stain.
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 Heavy or Soak Hand Wash 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).
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 e.g. 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

1) Washer is not energized.
Where, what & how to check?
Result of Check
Possible Cause
How to repair & settle
Household Power supply
1. Check whether connection between the
plug and the electrical is poor
2. Measure voltage of the electrical.
Wiring of the Washer
1. Measure resistance between both ends
of the power supply cord with both the
plug pins short-circuited.
2. Check whether every connector in the
bundle of connectors has a good
connection.
3. Check resistance of every wire to find
out a open wire.
Electrical component
1. Check resistance with power relay
switch turned on
2. Check the secondary voltage of the
transfomer.
3. Measure resistance to check whether
the T.P of the motor is blown out.
4. Check whether the fuse is open.
Controller
If there are no defects in the above,
it should be defect of the controller.
If supply voltage is 120% higher than
rating the varistar in the controller may
be broken. Check supply voltage.
