Water Level Sensor Part Verification Critical
When replacing the water level sensor, always verify the material code. If an incorrect part is used, abnormal operation will occur — the Cool LED will flash as an error indicator.
Drain Pump Freeze Issue in Winter
If the drain pump motor stops in winter, it may be due to frozen water. Check method to remove freezing and follow directed procedures. Also check the drain hose for frozen sections using a hair dryer to defrost.
Child Lock Deactivation
