The Front Loading Washer provides maximum performance using a
small amount of water.
Since the water fill not completed at the beginning of the wash, the
amount of water may appear to be small.
Because the amount of time that water is supplied differs depending on
the type of laundry, the amount of water may seem small.
Since water is supplied from the bottom of the tub and the supplied
water is absorbed by the laundry, the amount of water may seem small.
