Important safety instructions
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Prevent fire
DO NOT wash items that have been
previously cleaned in, soaked in,
or spotted with gasoline, cleaning
solvents, kerosene, cooking oils,
waxes, or other flammable or explosive
substances. 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 been used for 2 weeks or
more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE.
If the hot water system has 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 result in fire, explosion, serious
bodily injury and/or damage to the
rubber or plastic parts of the washer.
DO NOT continue to use the washer if
you hear squeaking, grinding, rubbing
or other unusual noises. This could be
a sign of mechanical breakdown and
lead to fire or serious injury. Contact a
qualified technician immediately.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Protect children
DO NOT allow children to play on or in
the washer. Close supervision of children
is necessary when the washer is used near
children. As children grow, teach them the
proper, safe use of all appliances.
Destroy the carton, plastic bag and
other packing materials after the
washer is unpacked. Children might use
them for play. Cartons covered with
rugs, bedspreads or plastic sheets can
become airtight compartments.
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.
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suffocation are not
problems of the past. Junked or abandoned
washers and dryers are still dangerous – even if
they will sit for “just a few days”. If you are getting
rid of your old washer or dryer, please follow the
instructions below to help prevent accidents.
We strongly encourage responsible appliance
recycling/disposal methods. Contact your
State/Provence Energy Office, Local Electric
and Water Utilities or Conservation Program
Office or visit www.energystar.gov/recycle
for more information on recycling your old
washer or dryer.
Before you throw away your old
washer or dryer:
Remove doors
Remove the electric power cord
Secure all hoses and drain pipes to
prevent water from leaking out and
creating a slip hazard.
Prevent injury
To prevent shock hazard and assure
stability during operation, the washer
must be installed and electrically
grounded by a qualified service person
in accordance with local codes.
Installation instructions are packed
in the washer for installer’s reference.
Grounding type wall receptacle
Power cord with
3-prong grounded plug
Do not, under
any circumstances,
cut, remove,
or bypass the
grounding prong.
Follow package directions when using
laundry products. Incorrect usage can
produce poisonous gas - resulting in
serious injury or death.
DO NOT combine laundry products
for use in 1 load unless specified on
the label.
Refer to
the
Installation sections of
this manual for detailed grounding
procedures. If the washer is moved
to a new location, have it checked
and reinstalled by a qualified service
person.
To prevent personal injury or damage
to the washer, the electrical power cord
of the washer must be plugged into
a properly grounded and polarized
3-prong outlet. The third grounding
prong must never be removed. Never
ground the washer to a gas pipe.
DO NOT use an extension cord or an
adaptor plug.
WARNING
FIRE/ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Avoid fire hazard or electrical shock. DO
NOT use an adaptor plug or extension cord
or remove grounding prong from electrical

Washers
The temperature selected for the cycle will
be remembered and recalled each time that
cycle is selected in the future.
All wash water temperatures are automatically
regulated to maximize detergent effectiveness
and improve washing performance. The
water heater setting and its distance from
the washer, water usage in other parts of
the home, and seasonally low ground water
temperature in some geographic areas can
affect water temperature.
sanitize (on select models)
Use the sanitize setting to clean and sanitize
heavily soiled, colorfast fabrics including towels,
bedding, cloth diapers, and children’s clothing.
It is recommended that you set your water
heater to 120°F (4C) or higher to ensure
proper performance during this cycle. If the
setting is lower or the load is extra large, the
cycle time may be extended.
When used with the heavy duty, towels,
optic whites and whitest whites, cycles, the
sanitize setting will kill 99.9% of bacteria with
no carryover of bacteria between loads. No
bleach or harsh chemicals are needed, but
higher temperatures are required. Please
check fabric care labels to prevent damage.
CONTROLS AND SETTINGS
hot
Use this setting for heavily soiled white or
colorfast cottons and blends.
warm
Use this setting for normally soiled white or
colorfast cottons or blends.
cool
Some warm water will automatically blend
with cold tap supply to achieve a precise
cold. Use this setting for lightly soiled non-
colorfast items, knits, delicates, and hand
washables.
eco cold (on select models)
Wash and rinse temperatures are equivalent
to temperature of cold tap supply. Use this
selection for fabrics and colors that are
prone to dye transfer. For use with cold
water
detergents.
The wash water is heated by an internal boost
heater to a maximum of 152°F (67°C) as the
load tumbles. Cold water is added to cool
down the load prior to drain and spin.
NOTE
The heavy duty, towels, optic whites
and whitest whites with sanitize setting
cycles have been designed to meet the
requirements of NSF P172 protocol for
sanitization efficacy.
NOTE
If the voltage at your outlet is under 110v,
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.
NOTE
If the wash cycle is paused or canceled
while the internal drum temperature is
above 130°F (55°C), the door will remain
locked until it cools. You may manually
perform a rinse & spin cycle to cool the
internal temperature sooner.
NOTE
The heavy duty, optic whites and
towels cycles with the allergen option
selected have been designed to meet the
requirements of the NSF P351 protocol
for allergen reduction efficacy. These
cycles and settings will kill dust mites
and eliminate at least 95% of pet dander.
Since higher temperatures are required,
please check fabric care labels to prevent
damage.

Cycle options
Max (on select models), high, medium and
low (on some models) spin speeds are
available for each cycle. The spin speed
and/or duration of final spin vary from model
to model and cycle to cycle.
Increasing the spin speed will extract more
water, decrease drying time and conserve
energy. Decreasing the spin speed will
reduce wrinkling.
Select low spin speed (on some models) to
gently spin items that should be line dried.
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 a spin only cycle to remove
excess water at a more convenient time.
Spin speed
The default options for each cycle will
automatically be chosen when a cycle is
selected. To protect fabrics, not all options
are available for all cycles. If an option is
not available for a cycle, the indicator will
not light.

need to be reselected each time.
Stain treatment options
(on select models)
Your washer is equipped with powerful stain
treatment tools. Depending on your model,
use one of the options below to deal with
tough stains on your garments. See step 5
in the
Operating Your Washer
section in this
manual for details on adding stain additives
to the dispenser.
StainTreat (400 series washer)
Select this option to add a short initial wash
period to available cycles using the stain
treatment additives in the stain soak/treat
compartment. After the stain wash phase,
the load will automatically advance to the
main wash cycle.
StainTreatII (500 series washer)
Select this option when available and rotate
the cycle selector to rotate through the
stain types below. Stain treatment and main
detergent will recirculate in the agitating load
for approximately 20 minutes and then the
washer will advance to the main wash cycle.
Any Stain
Recirculating wash solution will be
heated by boost heater.
Blood
Recirculating wash solution will NOT
be heated by boost heater to prevent
setting blood stains.
CONTROLS AND SETTINGS
Adjust the wash time based on the soil level
of each load. Solid soil (on select models),
heavy, normal, light and extra light (on
some models) soil levels are available.

to remove the load right after the cycle is
complete. The washer recognizes the load
has sat too long and will do a rinse and spin
to keep the load fresh for up to 12 hours.
When you are ready to remove the load
during the extended refresh segment, you
must press cancel to end the cycle and
open the door.
PODS

STEPS
TIPS IMPORTANT
1. Sort
laundry
into loads
that can
be washed
together.
Sort 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
corduroy items will pick up lint from towels,
rugs, and 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
fiberglass. Small particles
of fiberglass left in drum
may transfer to fabrics in
other loads and cause
skin irritation and/or
damage to fabrics.
DO NOT wash water
resistant and water
repellent type clothing or
other materials
2. Prepare
items for
washing.
Empty pockets.
Brush off lint and dirt. Shake out rugs and
beach towels.
Close zippers, fasten hooks, button buttons,
and tie strings/sashes. Remove non-washable
trims and ornaments.
Place delicate and small items (bras, hosiery,
etc.) in a mesh bag (not included).
Mend rips and tears to
prevent further damage
during washing.
Turn knit items inside out
to prevent pilling.
3. Pretreat
stains and
heavy soil.
See stain treatment function in
Cycle Options
for your particular model or
Stain Removal Guide
for more information.
4. Add
laundry
load to
wash tub.
Combine large and small items in a load.
Load large items first.
Large items should not be more than half the
total wash load.
Washing single items is inefficient and may
cause an out-of-balance load. Add 1 or 2
similar items to help balance load.
Wash single heavy items (comforter, sleeping
bag, etc.) separately.
The washer can be fully loaded, but the
items should not be tightly packed. The door
should close easily.
DO NOT overload the
washer.
DO NOT WASH: Water
resistant and water
repellent clothing or other
materials.

CARE AND CLEANING
Inside cleaning (aggressive)
In cases where clean washer cycle along
with care and cleaning of rubber gasket
folds isn’t done, and severe odor or residue
buildup have developed, follow the below
cleaning procedure to help alleviate the
problem.
Cleaning procedure-washer drum
Ensure the wash tub is empty. Open the

the severity of the odor/residue. You may
observe some remaining discoloration due
to the long term effects of this residue.
For especially contaminated areas visible
inside the drum (including the front rubber
seal), these areas might be more effectively
cleaned by spraying a bleach cleaner on
a scrub brush, soft sponge, or towel and
scrubbing.
If odor is still left after bleach cycle(s) and
bleach cleaner, open the detergent drawer
and pour one (1) pouch of Tide
