Getting started
USING THE WASHER
A
B
Load Size/Water Level (on some models)
Add detergent to the bottom of the basket and fabric softener to the dispenser (on some models) prior to loading clothes.
Loosely load items in the washer basket. Overloading may negatively impact wash performance. Adjust the load size
accordingly.
Make the load selection:
Precise Fill/Auto (on some models)
– For convenience, best performance and optimal efficiency, select Precise Fill/Auto for models so equipped. This selection
automatically provides the correct amount of water suited to the size and type of load placed in the unit. Lid will be locked for the
duration of the load sensing process, which includes a brief spin period and a portion of the water fill.
– If you prefer to manually select the water level, select Low/Small through Max/Super (or Large on some models). While Precise Fill/
Auto is best for most loads and general washing, you may want to manually select the load size for specialty items such as bulky,
lightweight comforters or pillows, where you want to ensure a larger water level is applied. Manual load size selections should be made
for wet items placed in the washer, such as soaked towels or garments.
– The washer will not fill with water when
Precise Fill/Auto
is selected if the lid is opened. When the lid is closed the
machine is able to begin filling with water in order to sense the load size.
NOTE: This is a high-efficiency washing machine. This system requires less water while providing effective cleaning action. You may
notice that the water level is lower than on your previous washer. This is normal.
C
Start/Pause
Press Start to begin the cycle. NOTE: If the lid is closed, the lid will lock only during the load sensing portion of the cycle (when
the Precise Fill/Auto selection is made or models which do not have a load size selection) and during spin portions of the cycle.
Lid will unlock after load sensing and spin.
Pressing Pause will unlock the lid (if locked at that time), pause the cycle and the Pause indicator light will blink.
To continue the cycle, press Start again. If water remains in the machine, select the Drain & Spin cycle to drain basket and spin
water out of the washer basket. NOTE: Machine will automatically cancel and drain when water is present and the lid is left
open for 15 minutes or the unit is left in a paused state for 24 hours with the lid closed. Select cycle and press Start to
begin new cycle.
Cycle Status Lights
Shows whether the washer is in the Fill, Soak, Wash, Rinse or Spin portion of the cycle.
If an out-of-balance condition is detected by the washer, the Spin light will blink during the remaining portion of the cycle
and will stay illuminated for a short time after cycle completion. When this occurs, the washer is taking actions to correct the
out-of-balance condition and complete the cycle normally. In some cases, the washer may not be able to balance the load
and spin up to full speed. If you notice the load is more wet than normal at the end of the cycle, redistribute the load evenly
in the wash basket and run a Drain & Spin cycle.
