OPERATION

Using the Washer

1. Sort laundry and load the washer. Sort laundry by fabric type, soil level, color and load size, as needed. Open the lid (door) and load items into the washer.

2. Add cleaning products. Add the proper amount of HE (High-Efficiency) detergent to the detergent dispenser. If desired, add bleach or fabric softener to the appropriate dispensers.

3. Turn on the washer. Press the Power button to turn on the washer. The lights above the cycle buttons will illuminate and a chime will sound.

4. Select a cycle. Turn the cycle selector knob or press the cycle buttons repeatedly until the desired cycle is selected. The preset wash temperature, spin speed, soil level and option settings for that cycle are shown.

• Pressing the Start/Pause button without selecting a cycle will cause the Normal cycle to begin immediately

5. Adjust settings. Default settings for the selected cycle can now be changed, if desired, using the cycle modifier and option buttons. NOTE: Not all modifiers and options are available on all cycles. A different chime sounds and the LED does not light up if the selection is not allowed.

6. Begin cycle. Press the Start/Pause button to begin the cycle. The lid (door) locks, and the washer agitates briefly without water to measure the weight of the load.

7. Additional garments can be added to the tub while the Add Garment light is on. The Add Garment light illuminates near the beginning of the wash cycle to indicate when it is safe to add items to the load. Press the Start/Pause button to pause the cycle and add garments to the load. Press the Start/Pause button to resume the cycle. NOTE: Adding items after the Add Garment light turns off may result in poor wash performance.

8. End of cycle. When the cycle is finished, a melody sounds. Immediately remove the clothing from the washer to reduce wrinkling. If the washer includes lint filters, remember to check them after every 2 to 3 loads.

Sorting Laundry

CAUTION

• The washer can be fully loaded, but the tub should not be tightly packed with items. The lid (door) of the washer should close easily.
• Use the Bedding cycle for buoyant or nonabsorbent items such as pillows or comforters. Failure to follow this caution can result in leakage.
• Clothing or articles that are waterproof or water resistant must be washed in the Waterproof cycle only. (e.g. water resistant clothing, mattress covers, outdoor clothes, plastic mats, etc.) Otherwise, it may result in personal injury or damage to the washer, clothes, walls, floor, and surrounding objects due to abnormal vibration.

Grouping Similar Items

• For the best washing results, and to reduce the possibility of damage to clothing, care should be taken to sort the clothing into loads that are made up of similar items.
• Mixing different fabric types and/or soil levels can result in poor wash performance, color transfer, discoloration, fabric damage or linting. Fabrics should be sorted into groups as described below.
• Colors: Sort articles by color. Wash dark clothes together in a separate load from light colors or whites. Mixing dark clothes with light clothes can result in dye transfer or discoloration of the lighter clothes.
• Soil Level: Wash heavily soiled clothing together. Washing lightly soiled clothing in the same load with heavily soiled clothing could result in poor wash performance for the lightly soiled clothing.
• Fabric Type: Delicate articles should not be mixed with heavy or sturdy fabric types. Washing heavy fabrics in a delicate load can result in poor wash performance for the heavy fabrics and possible damage to the delicates.
• Lint Type: Some fabrics attract and bind lint to them while others give off lint in the laundry process. Avoid mixing these lint collectors and lint producers in the same load. Mixing these fabrics will result in pilling and linting on the lint collectors. (For example, lint collector—knit sweater; lint producer—terry cloth towels.)
• Sort Laundry

Fabric Care Labels

• Many articles of clothing include a fabric care label. Using the chart below, adjust the cycle and option selections to care for your clothing according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.

• Check and empty pockets. Paper clips, coins, matches, etc. can damage clothing and the washer.
• Close zippers and hooks, and tie drawstrings to prevent snagging or tangling of clothes.
• Pretreat heavily stained areas for best results.
• Combine large and small items in a load. Load large items first. Large items should not be more than half of total load.
• Wash thick, bulky items individually. Heavy blankets, comforters, bedspreads, or pet beds can get tangled or cause an unbalanced load if combined with other items.
• The washer can be fully loaded, but the tub should not be tightly packed with items. The lid (door) of the washer must close easily

• Do not wash single small items. Add 1-2 similar items to the load to prevent an out-of-balance load.
• Clothing or articles that are waterproof of water resistant must be washed in the Waterproof cycle only. (e.g water resistant clothing, matters covers, outdoor clothes, plastic mats, etc.) Otherwise, it may result in personal injury or damage to the washer, clothes, walls, floor, and surrounding objects due to abnormal vibration.
• Wash small, light items in a mesh bag. Small items can get caught in the impeller at the bottom of the tub, and brassiere hooks can damage other items or the tub.
• Brush off heavy soil, dust, and hair from items before washing. Excess dirt or sand can abrade other fabrics and lead to poor wash performance.
• The washer will not fill or operate with the lid (door) open.
• Use the Bedding cycle for large or bulky items such as poly-filled jackets, comforters, pillows, etc. These items may not be as absorbent as other laundry items and should be sorted into a separate wash load for optimal results.
• Bulky items should be placed as far down in the tub as possible for optimal results. Always place buoyant items at the bottom of the tub. The washer will automatically detect the load size. Because of the high efficiency wash system, the water level may not completely cover the load.
• Do not overload the tub. Clothes should fit loosely in the tub under the maximum fill line. Loading clothes over the fill line may result in damage to clothing and the washer.
  • Load clothes loosely, and do not overfill the tub. Clothes need room to circulate in order to get clean.
  • Do not press down on items while stacking them in the tub.

• For best performance, load clothes as shown

Adding Cleaning Products

About the Dispensers: The automatic dispenser consists of two compartments which hold:

• Liquid fabric softener
• Liquid or powdered detergent for main wash

Using the Detergent and Softener Dispensers: To add detergent and fabric softener to the automatic dispenser:

1. Open the dispenser drawer.
2. Load the laundry products into the appropriate compartments.
3. Close the drawer completely before starting the cycle. Be careful not to catch a hand in the drawer while closing.

CAUTION: Do not place or store laundry products, such as detergent, bleach, or liquid fabric softener, on top of your appliance. Wipe up any spills immediately. These products can damage the appliance’s finish and controls

NOTE: It is normal for a small amount of water to remain in the dispenser compartments at the end of the cycle.

Main Wash Detergent Compartment:

• This compartment holds laundry detergent for the main wash cycle. Either powdered or liquid detergent may be used in this compartment. The detergent is added to the load at the beginning of the cycle. Always use HE (High-Efficiency) detergent with your washer.
• NOTE
  • Never exceed the manufacturer’s recommendations when adding detergent. Using too much detergent can result in detergent buildup in clothing and the washer.
  • When using liquid detergent, make sure the liquid detergent compartment and insert are in place. Do not exceed the maximum fill line.
  • When using powdered detergent, remove the insert and liquid detergent compartment from the dispenser. Powdered detergent will not dispense with the liquid detergent compartment and insert in place.
  • If you use a detergent that does not dissolve easily or a detergent with high viscosity, it will leave a residue and clog the dispenser.

Fabric Softener Compartment

• This compartment holds liquid fabric softener, which is automatically dispensed during the final rinse cycle.
• NOTE
  • Do not exceed the manufacturer’s recommendations when adding softener. Using too much fabric softener can result in buildup in clothing and the washer. Either powdered or liquid fabric softener may be used.
  • Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations when adding fabric softener. Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Using too much fabric softener may stain clothes.
  • Dilute concentrated fabric softeners with warm water.
  • Never pour fabric softener directly onto the load or into the tub.

Using the Liquid Bleach Dispenser

• The bleach dispenser is a separate compartment at the left front of the tub opening.
• Type 1
  • The bleach dispenser is connected to the inlet valve. The bleach is automatically diluted and dispensed at the proper time in the wash cycle.
  • NOTE: The dispenser is activated twice to ensure complete dispensing of the bleach. Any liquid remaining in the dispenser at the end of the cycle is water, not bleach.
• Type 2
  • When you pour the bleach into the bleach dispenser, the bleach is immediately added to the tub as it fills with water, safely diluting the bleach.
  • NOTE: The dispenser cover cannot be removed. To clean the cover, wipe it with a damp paper towel.

1. Check clothing care labels for special instructions.

2. Measure liquid bleach carefully, following instructions on the bottle.

• High-efficiency washers use less water, so less bleach is needed. One half cup is enough for most loads.

3. Carefully pour the pre-measured amount of bleach directly into the bleach dispenser.

• If you are using powdered bleach of any kind, pour it directly into the tub before adding the laundry. Never add powdered bleach to the liquid bleach dispenser.

WARNING: Do NOT mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or acids such as vinegar or rust/scale remover. Mixing chemicals like these can produce a lethal gas, resulting in severe injury or death

NOTE

• Do not add powdered bleach to this dispenser. The bleach dispenser is designed to dispense liquid bleach only. Powdered or liquid color-safe bleach will not dispense properly.
• Do not place laundry items on top of the bleach dispenser when loading and unloading the washer.
• Always follow the manufacturer’s recommendations when adding bleach. Never add more than one cup and do not exceed the maximum fill line since this can cause the bleach to be dispensed immediately, resulting in damage to fabrics. Using too much bleach can damage fabrics.
• Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly onto the load or into the tub. Fabric damage can occur.
• Do not use color-safe bleach or Oxi products in the same cycle with liquid chlorine bleach.

Detergent Use

• This washer is designed for use with only HE (HighEfficiency) detergents. HE detergents produce fewer suds, dissolve more efficiently to improve washing and rinsing performance, and help to keep the interior of the washer clean. Using detergent that is not HE may cause oversudsing and unsatisfactory performance which could result in error codes, cycle failure, and machine damage

• For proper wash performance, always measure detergent using the measuring device provided by the detergent manufacturer. For an average load, use less than half of the recommended maximum. Use less detergent for soft water, light soil, or smaller loads.
• Never use more than the maximum amount of detergent recommended by the manufacturer. Using too much detergent can lead to oversudsing, poor rinsing, detergent buildup in clothing, and residue buildup that can contribute to odors in the machine.
• Use extra care when measuring 2X and 3X concentrated detergents because even a small amount extra can lead to problems.
• Detergents designated as HE-compatible may not provide optimal results.
• Do not use more than one detergent pod in the washer. Using too much detergent may cause oversudsing and unsatisfactory performance. Reduce detergent amount or add an extra rinse if detergent residue is left on fabrics. To add an extra rinse, press the Extra Rinse button.
