SPECIFICATIONS
WM2688H*M Page 6 of 64 TRAINING MANUAL
WM2688H*M Steam Washer
FEATURES
LARGE CAPACITY
The larger drum (4.0 cu. ft.) allows washing of
larger (heavier) loads and oversized items
(comforters, curtains, blankets, etc.) There is less
wrinkling and tangling of the laundry.
DIRECT DRIVE
The brushless DC motor drives the drum directly
without belts, pulleys, or transmissions. The
maximum spin speed of 1,320 RPM extracts more
water from the laundry, reducing drying times.
TILTED DRUM/LARGE DOOR
The tilted drum (10°) and large door opening allow
easier loading and unloading.
STEAM WASHING/SteamFresh®
The steam feature works with the recirculating
pump to increase washing performance while
maintaining low energy and water usage.
SteamFresh®removes wrinkles from dry clothes.
ROLLER JETS and BALLS
The baffles pick up water as the drum turns and
allow it to pour through the clothing as it tumbles.
The balls enhance the washing performance while
maintaining fabric care.
AUTOMATIC LOAD DETECTION
The microprocessor reads the current required to
turn the drum and determines the weight of the
load. This input is used to make numerous
decisions during the wash cycle.

SERIAL NUMBER IDENTIFICATION
The serial number is unique to each product. It gives information concerning the
time and place of manufacture. The serial number is required to be paid for
warranty service and to get the correct part in the event a running production
change was made. Some models may have four (4) letters instead of two (2) for
the product code number. The third and fourth letters are significant only to the
manufacturing facility.
This chart will help you decode the serial number.

FUZZY LOGIC
To get the best washing performance, the user selects one of the standard
cycles. Sensors in the COMBO make an infinitely variable number of
adjustments as the cycle progresses. Adjustments are automatically made
for load size, incoming water temperature, soil level, rinses required, and
other variables.
DOOR LOCK
The door has an automatic, electrically operated lock system. When the machine
is off or paused, the door can be opened by pulling it. When the machine is
operating, the electric latch keeps the door closed.
The door cannot be opened:
•When the COMBO is operating
•When the power failed or the washer is unplugged
(until the capacitor discharges and releases the lock)
•When the DOOR LOCK light is on
•When the drum is still turning
DOOR LOCKED LAMP
The DOOR LOCK lamp lights:
•When the COMBO is operating
•When the water level sensor frequency is lower than 22.9 kHz
•When the temperature inside the tub is over 45° C (113°F)
