Washing Machine / User’s Manual
Problem Reason Solution
Washing takes longer
time than specified in the
manual.(*)
Water pressure is low. Machine waits until taking in adequate
amount of water to prevent poor washing
quality due to the decreased amount
of water. Therefore, the washing time
extends.
Voltage might be low. Washing time is prolonged to avoid poor
washing results when the supply voltage
is low.
Input temperature of water might be low. Required time to heat up the water
extends in cold seasons. Also, washing
time can be lengthened to avoid poor
washing results.
Number of rinses and/or amount of rinse
water might have increased.
Machine increases the amount of rinse
water when good rinsing is needed and
adds an extra rinsing step if necessary.
Excessive foam might have occurred and
automatic foam absorption system might have
been activated due to too much detergent
usage.
Use recommended amount of detergent.
