STEP 4 Prewash (if necessary)
Select the Prewash option for the selected
cycle if the laundry is heavily soiled. Do
not use the Prewash option if you will be
adding detergent manually to the drum.
STEP 5 Determine the load capacity
Do not overload the washer. Overloading
may cause the washer to wash improperly.
NOTE
When washing bedding or bedding covers,
the wash time may be lengthened or the
spin efciency may be reduced.
For bedding or bedding covers, the
recommended maximum spin level is “Low
or Medium Spin”, and the load capacity is
3.0 kg or less.
CAUTION
If the laundry is unbalanced and the “UB”
information code is displayed, redistribute
the load. Unbalanced laundry may reduce
the spinning performance.
STEP 6 Add the correct detergent type
The type of detergent depends on the
type of fabric (cotton, synthetic, delicate
items, wool), color, wash temperature, and
degree of soiling. Always use “low suds”
HE laundry detergent which is designed
for automatic washers.
NOTE
• Follow the detergent manufacturer’s
recommendations based on the weight
of the laundry, the degree of soiling,
and the hardness of the water in your
local area. If you are not sure about the
water hardness, contact a local water
authority.
• Do not use detergent that tends to
harden or solidify. This detergent may
remain after the rinse cycle, blocking
the drain outlet.
CAUTION
When washing wool using the WOOL
cycle, use only a neutral liquid detergent.
Powdered detergent used with the WOOL
cycle can remain on the laundry and
discolor it.
Use HE detergent only
Your washer is designed to use high
efciency (HE) detergents.
• For the best cleaning results, use a high
efciency detergent such as Tide HE,
Wisk HE, Cheer HE or Gain HE*. High
efciency detergents contain suds
suppressors that reduce or eliminate
suds. When fewer suds are produced,
the load tumbles more efciently and
cleaning is maximized. (* Brand names

manufacturers.)
WARNING
Regular detergent is not recommended.
Use HE detergents only.
