Been browsing the EnergyStar.gov site and they are listing a new Electrolux washer rated at 4.43 cu.ft. versus the current version rated at 4.05 cu.ft. It also has the lowest water factor of all listed machines. Wonder how big they'll rate the capacity on the E-Lux web site - 5.5 or even 6 cu.ft.?

Model is EWFLS70**. Anybody heard anything? Thomasortega, maybe?

Also, does anybody know how to find service manuals on here? Are there any? ftp://ftp.electrolux-na.com/

Under this top level directory you mentioned is a directory named "prodinfo_pdf". In there are a bunch of subdirectories named for places where factories are located. Also, a big file named "sunprinting.csv". That is a comma-separated-variable file of the sort you submit to a spreadsheet program. The first few lines look like this:

"model","owner guide","timer guide","wiring dia","install inst","parts manual","service","operating inst","location"
" 790.15011402","316417245en","none","none","316454901en, 316454901sp","none","none","none","Springfield"
" 790.15021402","","","","","","","","Springfield"
" 790.60042402","316417246en","none","none","316454901en, 316454901sp","none","none","none","Springfield"
" 790.71420404","316417321en","none","316441710en","316259336en","none","none","none","Springfield"

Top line has column labels. First column is model number, and so on, and so on, until the last column showing where the thing is built. These first few items are built in "Springfield". You'll see that as one of the subdirectory names. I do not know whether the FTP server is case-sensitive as far as file names, so you are better off using "springfield".

If you descend the tree into "springfield", there are scads of PDF files with (mostly) numeric names. The spreadsheet allows you to identify the files you need. So for the first product in the CSV file, 790.15011402, the owner guide is found in the file 316417245en.pdf in that springfield directory. Lather, rinse, repeat for other models.

What is it? I've no idea. But that is the process. Years back when I figured this out, the CSV file was updated frequently. Now this one seems to be quite old. Maybe this classification method is no longer used. However, if you find the model you are seeking in the spreadsheet, what ever else is available should appear there.
