The UI (User Interface) board provides a means of
communication between the washer and the con-
sumer. The UI board contains software algorithms
that control the washer.
When the UI board is replaced, a new model ID
number has to be programmed. Once the UI board
has been replaced, it may sometimes power up with

the steps below. If this is not the case, set the model
ID in service mode Test 02.

Spin buttons for 3 seconds.
