To begin the wash cycle
Select HOLD TO START,
Ifyou do not select HOLD TO START within 5 minutes of
choosing a cycle, the washer automatically shuts off.
When the wash cycle is complete, the CYCLE
COMPLETE status light glows, the door unlocks, and the
wash load can be removed from the washer. The washer
powers down automatically 5 minutes after the cycle is
complete and the CYCLE COMPLETE light goes off. To
power down the washer manually after the wash cycle is
complete, select PAUSE/CANCEL once.
Your new washer has a dispenser drawer with four separate
compartments for your laundry products--two are for detergent,
one is for liquid chlorine bleach, and one is for liquid fabric
softener. Laundry products are diluted and dispensed
automatically at the proper time during the wash cycle, making it
unnecessary for you to return to the washer during the cycle to
add them.
It is normal for small amounts of water to remain in the
dispensers when the wash cycle is complete.
Do not put laundry additives directly into the wash tub. Always
use the proper dispensers when adding laundry products.
Choosing the Right Detergent
For best washing performance, use a High Efficiency (HE), or
low-sudsing, detergent. Regular detergents may cause
oversudsing in the washer. If a High Efficiency detergent is
unavailable, use 1/2the recommended amount of regular
detergent. Use of Regular detergent will lead to unsatisfactory
performance over time.
Most detergents formulated for hand-washing are not meant for
front-loading washers and may cause oversudsing. Start with 1A
the recommended amount. If oversudsing occurs, try a detergent
formulated for high efficiency washers.
To fill dispenser compartments
1. Pull out the dispenser drawer.
2. Add the desired laundry product to the proper compartment.
3. Carefully push in the dispenser drawer completely, to avoid
spilling.
Prewash detergent compartment
(Number 1 in Dispenser Illustration)
Add detergent to this compartment when using the Prewash
option or Auto Soak. Liquid or powdered detergent may be used
in this compartment. The detergent will automatically be
dispensed during Prewash if the Prewash option is selected or
during the soak time if Auto Soak is selected.
If you use High Efficiency (HE) detergent, add 1/3the
recommended amount to the Prewash compartment and %
the recommended amount to the Main Wash compartment.
If you use regular detergent, add 1/6of the recommended
amount to the prewash compartment and 1/3of the
recommended amount to the Main Wash compartment.
Main Wash detergent compartment
(Number 3 in Dispenser Illustration)
Add liquid or powdered detergent to this compartment for your
main wash cycle. The detergent separator must always be in
place, either in the front or back position.
IMPORTANT: If you are using the Prewash option or the Auto
Soak with a wash cycle, powdered detergent must be used in the
Main Wash compartment since liquid detergents may seep out of
the Main Wash compartment during the prewash, soak time, or
delay before the main wash begins.
Do not fill beyond the "MAX" level.
Liquid or powdered color-safe bleach may be added to the
Main Wash compartment along with the same type of
detergent, liquid or powdered.
Liquid detergent: Put the SEPARATOR in the front position,
between the guides, as shown following. There will be no gap
between the bottom of the wash cycle detergent
compartment and the bottom of the separator.
