Safety
PREVENT FIRE
Do not wash items that have been previously •
cleaned in, soaked in, or spotted with gaso-
line, cleaning solvents, kerosene, cooking oils,
waxes, etc. Do not store these items on or near
the washer. These substances give off vapors or
chemical reactions that could ignite or explode.
Do not put oily or greasy rags or clothing on top •
of the washer. These substances give off vapors
that could ignite the materials.
Do not add gasoline, cleaning solvents, or other •
flammable or explosive substances to the wash
water. These substances give off vapors that
could ignite or explode.
Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may •
be produced in a hot water system that has not
beenusedfor2weeksormore.HYDROGEN
GASISEXPLOSIVE.Ifthehotwatersystemhas
not been used for such a period, before using
the washer, turn on all hot water faucets and let
the water flow from each for several minutes.
This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas.
Hydrogen gas is flammable; do not smoke or
use an open flame during this time.
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable •
vapors or liquids in the vicinity of this or any
other appliance.
Failure to comply with these warnings could •

Close supervision of children is necessary when
the washer is used near children. As children
grow, teach them the proper, safe use of all ap-
pliances.
Destroy the carton, plastic bag and other pack-•
ing materials after the washer is unpacked. Chil-
dren might use them for play. Cartons covered
with rugs, bedspreads or plastic sheets can
become airtight chambers.
Keep laundry products out of children’s reach. •
To prevent personal injury, observe all warnings
on product labels.
Before the washer is removed from service or •
discarded, remove the washer door to prevent
accidental entrapment.
Failure to comply with these warnings could •
result in serious personal injuries.

Normal Operating Sounds
You may or may not hear the following sounds
from your new washer:
A. DRAIN HOSE The washer has a flexible drain
hose to carry water from the washer to the
stand pipe of your home. You will hear water
flowing into your stand pipe. This is a normal
part of the operation of the washer.
B. WATER VALVES/DISPENSER As water enters
the dispenser system, it is common to hear a
water flowing sound. This normal sound will
vary slightly based on the water pressure in
your home.
C. DOOR LOCK Your washer is equipped with a
door lock with an electric solenoid. There will be a
clicking sound as the washer door is being locked
or unlocked.
D. DRAIN PUMP Your washer is equipped with
a high velocity drain pump. It is normal to hear
humming and gurgling sounds as water is
pumped from the washer. Both of these sounds
are normal and indicate that your pump is
functioning correctly.
E. HIGH SPEED MOTOR A powerful motor is used
to drive the drum to high spin speeds to extract
water from your load. You will hear a sound
associated with these higher spin speeds. This
sound is normal and will vary slightly as the spin
speed varies with load size and cycle selected.

BEFORE USING YOUR WASHER
Read the important instructions in this section of
the Use and Care Guide before operating your
washer.
OPERATING YOUR WASHER
Sort laundry into loads that can be 1.
washed together.
Sort items by recommended cycle and water
temperature.
Separate white, light and colorfast items from
dark and non-colorfast items.
Separate items that shed lint from items that
attract lint. Casual, synthetic, knit, and cordu-
roy items will pick up lint from towels, rugs,
and chenille bedspreads.
Separate heavily soiled items from lightly
soiled items.
Separate lacy, sheer, loosely knit, or delicate
items from durable items.
Do not machine wash items containing fiber-
glass. Small particles of fiberglass left in the
drum may transfer to fabrics in other loads and
cause skin irritation.
Prepare items for washing.2.
Empty pockets.
Brush off lint and dirt. Shake out rugs and
beach towels.
Close zippers, fasten hooks, tie strings and
sashes, and remove non-washable trims and
ornaments.
Mend rips and tears to prevent further damage
during washing.
Turn knit items inside out to prevent pilling.
Place delicate and small items such as bras,
hosiery and baby socks in a mesh bag.

balance the load.
Wash a single heavy item such as a king-sized
comforter, bedspread or sleeping bag sepa-
rately.
The washer can be fully loaded, but the items
should not be tightly packed. The door should
close easily.

NOTE
If the voltage at your outlet is under 110 v, the
internal heater may not adequately heat the wash
water. If the cycle is interrupted while the water is
heating, the final temperature of the wash water
may be lower and sanitation may be reduced.
As a precaution, the washer door is locked once
the water temperature reaches 130° F (55° C). If
the cycle is cancelled during the wash phase and
the water temperature is greater than 150° F (66°
C), an automatic cool down and drain will occur
before the door can be opened.
The wash water is heated by an internal boost
heater to a maximum of 152° F (67° C) as the load
tumbles for up to 4 hours. Cold water is added to
cool down the load prior to drain and spin.

Operating Instructions
SANITIZE/COLD
This setting sanitizes heavily soiled colorfast fabrics
such as towels, bedding, and children’s clothing by
killing 99.9% of bacteria using wash water heated
with a boost heater to 152° F (67° C). Cold water is
used to cool and rinse the load. This setting is only
available with the deep clean sanitize cycle.
HOT/COLD
Use this setting for heavily soiled white or colorfast
cottons and blends.
WARM/COLD
Use this setting for normally soiled white or colorfast
cottons or blends.
WARM/WARM
Use this setting for washable woolens or when a
warm water rinse is desired.
COLD/COLD
Use this setting for lightly soiled non-colorfast items,
knits, delicates, and hand washables.
Max, high, medium, and low spin speeds are
available for each cycle. The spin speedand/or
duration of final spin vary from cycle to cycle.
Increasing the spin speed will extract more water,
decrease drying time and conserve energy. De-
creasing the spin speed will reduce wrinkling.
Use no spin to omit the final spin at the end of the
cycle. The load will be very wet. Remove items from
the wash drum to drip dry or select the spin only
cycle to remove excess water at a more convenient
time.
Adjust the wash time in 3-minute increments based

PREWASH
Select this option to add a short initial wash peri-
od to a cycle. Heavily soiled and stained loads will
prewash for approximately 5 minutes. The water
will drain and the load will automatically advance
to the regular wash cycle.
See step 5 in “Operating Your Washer” section in this
guide for details on adding detergent to the dispenser.
STAIN CLEAN
Use the stain clean option to add a 5-minute soak
in the middle of the wash portion of the heavy duty,

mended for heavily soiled loads or if household
members have sensitive skin. Extra rinse occurs
before the final rinse when the liquid fabric soft-
ener is dispensed.
EXTRA SPIN
Use this option to add minutes to the final spin at
the selected Spin Speed. This will improve water
extraction, decrease drying time and save energy.
ECO FRIENDLY
The eco friendly option reduces the hot and warm
water temperature a few degrees to save energy. It is

through 14 hours.
CONTROL LOCK
To lock the controls between cycles, press and
hold the control lock button for 5 seconds. Re-
peat to unlock the controls when you are ready to

likelihood of accidental operation by children.
STATUS DISPLAY
The estimated total cycle time will be displayed
when the cycle is selected. The time may increase
if water pressure is low, oversudsing occurs or the
load becomes unbalanced. The approximate time
remaining will be displayed during the cycle.
A situation where oversudsing has been detected
by the washer will result in the washer automati-
cally adding up to 4 extra rinses to attempt to clear
the suds. Each extra rinse the washer performs
to clear the suds will add 5 minutes to the cycle
display time. If an excessive amount of detergent
has been added and additional rinsing has not cor-
rected the issue, TOO MUCH DETERGENT will be
displayed.
DRUM LIGHT
The drum light will come on whenever the door is
opened to illuminate the drum during loading and
unloading. Closing the door turns off the light. The
drum light will automatically turn off if the door is
left open more than 3 minutes.
REVERSIBLE DOOR
Your washer is equipped with a reversible door.
The door can be hinged on the right or left side.
