SECTION 3. BASIC MACHINE OPERATION The model MAH4000 and MAH5500A are similar to the MAH3000 washer, with the exception being the MAH4000 and MAH5500A have a recirculation pump in series between the outer tub outlet and the drain pump. When the water pressure switch becomes satisfied (Series 11 and later on the MAH4000 and all the MAH5500A), power is then applied to the recirculation pump. The recirculation pump draws water from the bottom of the outer tub and circulates the water up through the detergent hose, then into the top of the outer tub. By doing this, the washer is able to provide a more even distribution of detergent throughout the wash load. SECTION 4. WASHER CONTROLS OVERVIEW The software of the MAH4000 and MAH5500A models is slightly different than the software used in the MAH3000 washer. Fabric Selections on the control console were changed from Cotton/Sturdy to Whites, Easy Care/Perm Press to Colors, Delicates remained the same. Series 10 of the MAH4000 washer allowed the recirculating pump to be directly controlled by the timer.
