4. INSTALLATION & TEST Before servicing, ask the customer what the trouble is. When installing or repairing the washer, put on long gloves and safety glasses. Check the setup (power supply is 120 V , remove the transit bolts, level the washer, etc.) Check with the troubleshooting guide.
HOW TO CONNECT THE INLET HOSE Verify that the rubber washer is inside of the valve connector. Tighten the inlet hose securely to prevent leaks. Install the inlet hose to correct temperature water tap. Otherwise, it cause drips on the drawer panel handle and drawer panel.
7 TEST OPERATION Press the POWER button. Press the Start/Pause Preparation for washing. button. • Connect the power plug to • Listen for a click to determine if the outlet. the door has locked. • Connect the inlet hose. Check the water heating Check the automatic Check the water supply.
5-3. SPECIAL FUNCTIONS The option buttons also activate special functions, including CHILD LOCK, LOAD SIZE, TUB CLEAN and SIGNAL ON/OFF Press and hold the option button marked with the special function for 3 seconds to activate. CHILD LOCK Use this option to prevent unwanted use of the washer or to keep cycle settings from being changed while the washer is operating.

9-3. STATOR ASSEMBLY Wiring Circuit in the MAIN PWB / Wiring Diagram diagram MAIN PWB NA1NA MICOM Function The Direct Drive motor can be driven from stopped to maximum speed in infinite steps in either direction. There are 36 poles on the stator; 12 permanent magnets spaced around the rotor. There are no brushes to wear out.
