PRESERVING THE TOP COVER AND THE FRONT FRAME

Do not place any heavy or sharp objects or a detergent box on the washing machine. Keep them on the purchased pedestal or in a separate storage box. This may scratch or damage the top cover of the washing machine.

Since the entire washing machine has a high-gloss ﬁ nish, the surface can be scratched or damaged. Therefore, avoid scratching or damaging the surface when using the washing machine.

You should clean the water hose mesh ﬁ lter 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 ﬁ lter 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 ﬁ lter back into place.

5.Screw the hose back onto the washing machine.

6.Make sure the connections are watertight and turn on the tap.

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 minutes.

5.Reconnect the water supply hose to the water tap and check if the water supply and drain are operating normal.
