WHAT’S NEW UNDER THE LID?
Choosing the
Right Detergent
Use only High Efciency detergents. The package will be
marked “HE” or “High Efciency.” This wash system, along
with less water will create too much sudsing with a regular
non-HE detergent. Using regular detergent will likely result in
longer cycle times and reduced rinsing performance. It may also
result in component failures and noticeable mold or mildew. HE
detergents are made to produce the right amount of suds for
the best performance. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to
determine the amount of detergent to use.
Concentrated Cleaning
Low-water cleaning means concentrated cleaning. The lower
water level combined with HE detergent during the rst stage
of the wash cycle delivers detergent directly to the soils.
Use only High Efciency (HE) detergent.
Cleaning with Less Energy
First stage
Second stage
Your new washer saves energy by using lower water levels
and reduced wash temperatures, as compared to traditional
top-load washers. During the rst stage of the wash cycle, it
is normal for some of the load to be above the water line. The
second stage adds the correct amount of water based on the
load size. This washer automatically adjusts the water level to
the load size - no water level selector is needed.
Normal Sounds You Can Expect
At different stages of the wash cycle, you may hear sounds and
noises that are different from those of your previous washer. For
example, you may hear a clicking and hum at the beginning of
the cycle, as the lid lock goes through a self-test. There will be
different kinds of humming and whirring sounds as the agitator
moves the load. And sometimes, you may hear nothing at all, as
the washer determines the correct water level for your load or
allows time for clothes to soak.
When loading the washer with dirty laundry, ll it evenly
around the basket wall.
Automatic Load Size Sensing
Once you start the cycle, the lid will lock, and the washer will
begin the sensing process to determine the correct water level
for the load. This may take several minutes before water is
added. You will nd a step-by-step description in the “Cycle
Status Lights” section.
You will hear the motor turn the basket in short pulses to
thoroughly wet the load.
