8 DISPENSERS

Load & Go™ Bulk Dispenser (only on some models – varies by model)

The Load & Go™ bulk dispenser gives you the convenience of not having to add the HE detergent to the wash load every time. It also determines the best amount of detergent and the best time to add it to the load. See the “Using the Dispensers” section for information on using the dispenser drawer.

Washer comes with choice of a 1- or 2-liter bulk liquid detergent dispenser

Single Load Dispenser Drawer

The single load dispenser drawer gives you the convenience of adding HE detergent, liquid chlorine bleach, and liquid fabric softener to the wash load at the proper time. See the “Using the Dispensers” section for information on using the dispenser drawer.

A 2-Liter Bulk Liquid High Efficiency (HE) detergent dispenser

This bulk dispenser holds up to 67.6 oz (2 L) of liquid HE detergent.

B 1-Liter Bulk Liquid High Efficiency (HE) detergent dispenser

This bulk dispenser holds up to 33.8 oz (1 L) of liquid HE detergent.

Each dispenser holds enough detergent for many loads of laundry. Each adds the appropriate quantity of HE detergent to the wash load at the proper time. See the “Using the Dispensers” section for information on using the dispenser.

IMPORTANT: Do not use chlorine bleach or powdered detergent in the bulk dispenser. Powdered detergent must be added to the single load dispenser. See the “Using the Washer” section.

C High Efficiency (HE) detergent compartment

This compartment holds liquid or powdered HE detergent for your main wash cycle, and automatically dispenses detergent in the cycle.

D Liquid fabric softener compartment

This compartment holds liquid fabric softener. It automatically dispenses liquid fabric softener at the optimum time in the cycle.

E Liquid chlorine bleach compartment

This compartment automatically dilutes and dispenses liquid chlorine bleach at the optimum time during the first rinse after the wash cycle. It cannot dilute powdered bleach.

CYCLE GUIDE

You can use this washer to wash only or to wash and dry. This washer has a unique user interface to help you select the best cycle for your load. The “What to Wash” “How to Wash” layout guides you to the optimal cycle in two easy steps:

First determine what items are in the load that you are trying to wash. Use that to guide your “What to Wash” selection. Then determine how you want the washer to wash them and select the appropriate “How to Wash” selection. Selecting “What to Wash” will automatically select a default “How to Wash selection,” so selecting a “How to Wash” is optional. See chart below for more details

Settings and options shown in bold are default settings for that wash cycle. For best fabric care, choose the cycle, options, and settings that best fit the load being washed. Always read and follow fabric care labels and laundry product instructions. Avoid tightly packing the washer. The washer will not rinse well or spin correctly if tightly packed. If running Wash & Dry, loading the drum 1/4 full or less will improve drying performance and cycle time. Not all settings are available with each cycle, and some options cannot be used together. Not all options are available on all models.

Government energy certifications for models WFW8620H and WFW862CH were based on the REGULAR (WHAT TO WASH), NORMAL (HOW TO WASH), FASTEST SELECTABLE SPIN SPEED, HOLDING “DRAIN & SPIN” for 3 SECONDS TO ACTIVATE TIMED DRY (4 HOURS - 1 TIME ONLY), DRYING TEMPERATURE SETTING NON - SELECTABLE. The as–shipped defaults of REGULAR (WHAT TO WASH), NORMAL (HOW TO WASH), WARM TEMP, SPIN SPEED FAST were not used for energy testing.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT DETERGENT

Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package will be marked “HE” or “High Efficiency.” Low-water washing creates excessive sudsing with a non-HE detergent. Using non-HE detergent will likely result in longer cycle times and reduced rinsing performance. It may also result in component malfunction and, over time, buildup of mold or mildew. HE detergents should be low-sudsing and quick-dispersing to produce the right amount of suds for the best performance. They should hold soil in suspension so it is not redeposited onto clean clothes. Not all detergents labeled as High Efficiency are identical in formulation and their ability to reduce suds. For example, natural, organic, or homemade HE detergents may generate a high level of suds. If you use one of these and see a “SUD” error code appear in the display, consider using a different HE detergent. Always follow the detergent manufacturer’s instructions to determine the amount of detergent to use.

About Detergent Concentration

Today’s liquid HE detergents are concentrated. Most brands of concentrated HE detergent will show the level of concentration on the bottle.

However, if the detergent bottle does not give the concentration, it can be easily calculated. Just divide the package size in fluid ounces by the number of loads. Then refer to the chart below to find the concentration.

If you do not get your desired cleaning results, try using a lower concentration number. If you have excess suds, try using a higher concentration number.

If detergent concentration is not 2x, change the detergent concentration setting by touching and holding TEMP and SOIL for 3 seconds.

USING THE DISPENSERS (varies by model)

1. For automatic dispensing, open the bulk dispenser drawer using the handle at the base of the washer. For a single load, open the single load dispenser drawer at the top left corner of the washer and disable the Load & Go™ option.
2. Add laundry products as described below.
3. Slowly close the dispenser drawer. Make sure it is completely closed.

NOTES:

• A small amount of water may remain in the single load dispenser from the previous wash cycle. This is normal.
• See “About Detergent Concentration” for information on detergent concentration.
• On some models: When detergent in the bulk dispenser is running low, the display will show the detergent level (Low).
• Add single-dose and Oxi-type boosters to the drum before loading items. See the “Using Your Washer” section.

Adding HE detergent to dispenser

Load & Go™ bulk dispenser (on some models)

Use only High Efficiency (HE) liquid detergents. The bulk dispensers will hold about 67.6 oz (2 L) or 33.8 oz (1 L) of liquid HE detergent, depending on dispenser, or enough for many loads of laundry.

To Fill Bulk Dispeners:

Open the dispenser drawer by pulling on the handle at the base of the washer. If desired, the drawer can be completely removed from the washer.

Locate the Load & Go™ bulk dispenser. Gently pull up on the tab located on the bulk dispenser lid to lift the fill door.

Fill to the “MAX” line (see illustrations at right) with HE liquid detergent. Close fill door.

It will click into place. Make sure the concentration is correct (see the “Choosing the Right Detergent” section.

The dispensers should be rinsed out when changing detergents or when the washer will not be used for extended periods. For instructions on cleaning the dispenser cartridge, see the “Washer Care” section.

Adding detergent for a single load

Pour a measured amount of HE detergent into detergent compartment. For powdered detergent, lift the selector to the high position. For liquid detergent, push down the selector to the low position.

Do not overfill; adding too much detergent may cause detergent to be dispensed into the washer too early.

IMPORTANT:

• Disable the Load & Go™ option before starting a single load.
• Do not add single-dose laundry packet to dispenser drawer.

USING YOUR WASHER

First wash cycle without laundry

Before washing clothes for the first time, set up the Load & Go™ bulk dispenser (on some models) or add detergent to the single-dose dispenser (see the “Using the Dispensers” section). Choose the Regular (what to wash) and Quick (how to wash) cycle and run it without clothes. Use only HE detergent. This initial cycle serves to ensure the interior is clean.

1 Sort and prepare your laundry

Sort items by recommended cycle, water temperature, and colorfastness. Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled. Separate delicate items from sturdy fabrics. Treat stains promptly and check for colorfastness by testing stain remover products on an inside seam.

IMPORTANT:

• Empty pockets. Loose change, buttons, or any small object can plug pumps and may require a service call.
• Close zippers, fasten hooks, tie strings and sashes, and remove non-washable trim and ornaments.
• Mend rips and tears to avoid further damage to items during washing.
• Turn knits inside out to prevent pilling. Separate lint-takers from lint-givers. Synthetics, knits, and corduroy fabrics will pick up lint from towels, rugs, and chenille fabrics.
• Do not dry garments if stains remain after washing because heat can set stains into fabric.
• Always read and follow fabric care labels and laundry product instructions. Improper usage may cause damage to your garments.

2 Add laundry products, if desired

Single-dose laundry packets, Oxi-type boosters, color-safe bleach, or scented crystals can be added to the drum prior to adding laundry. When using single-dose laundry packets, make sure that the bulk dispenser is disabled (on some models) or off (see the “Control Panel and Features” section).

NOTE: Always follow manufacturer’s instructions.

3. Load laundry into washer

Place a load of sorted items loosely in the washer. Items need to move freely for best cleaning and to reduce wrinkling and tangling. If using the Wash & Dry option, loading the drum half full or less and not interrupting the drying cycle by opening the door will improve drying performance and cycle time. Close the washer door by pushing it firmly until the latch clicks.

• Push load fully into the washer. Make sure no items are resting on the rubber seal to avoid trapping them between the seal and the door window.
• Mix large and small items and avoid washing single items.Load evenly.
• Wash small items in mesh garment bags. For multiple items, use more than one bag and fill bags equally.

4 Add HE detergent

Load & Go™ Bulk Dispenser (on some models)

If the bulk dispenser already contains enough detergent to wash your load, simply choose the Load & Go™ option as described in Step 10. If you need to add detergent to the bulk dispenser, see “Using the Dispensers” section.

OR

Single Load Dispenser Drawer

Adjust the selector, based on type of HE detergent used (either liquid or powdered). Add a measured amount of detergent directly into the detergent compartment. See the “Using the Dispensers” section. Disable the Load & Go™ option.

NOTE: Do not add single-dose laundry packets, Oxi-type boosters, color-safe bleach, or scented crystals to dispensers. They will not dispense correctly

5 Add liquid fabric softener to single load dispenser, if desired

Pour a measured amount of liquid fabric softener into liquid fabric softener compartment. Always follow manufacturer’s directions for correct amount of fabric softener, based on your load size.

Fabric softener is always dispensed in the last rinse, even if Extra Rinse is selected.

IMPORTANT: Do not overfill, dilute, or use more than the manufacturer-recommended quantity of fabric softener. Do not fill past the “MAX” line. Overfilling dispenser will cause fabric softener to immediately dispense into washer.

• Do not spill or drip any fabric softener onto the clothes.
• Do not use liquid fabric softener dispenser balls in this washer. They will not dispense correctly.
• Do not use fabric softener sheets, as they can stain the load

6 Add liquid chlorine bleach to single load dispenser, if desired

Add liquid chlorine bleach to the bleach compartment. Do not overfill, dilute, or use more than 2⁄3 cup (165 mL). Do not use color-safe bleach or Oxi in the same cycle with liquid chlorine bleach.

IMPORTANT:

• Always measure liquid chlorine bleach. Use a measuring cup with a pour spout; do not guess.
• Do not fill beyond the “MAX” line. Overfilling could cause garment damage.
• Do not use thickened, easy-pour, or no-splash bleach when running the Clean Washer with affresh® cycle, as excess suds may occur.
• On some models: Do not add liquid chlorine bleach to the bulk dispenser.
• Slowly close dispenser drawers. Make sure the drawers are closed completely.

WASHER MAINTENANCE

WATER INLET HOSES

Replace inlet hoses after five years of use to reduce the risk of hose failure. Periodically inspect and replace inlet hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts, wear, or leaks are found.

When replacing your inlet hoses:

Mark the date of replacement on the label with a permanent marker.

Check that the old washers are not stuck on the washer inlet valves.

Use new washers in the new inlet hoses to ensure a proper seal.

WASHER CARE

Recommendations to Help Keep Your Washer Clean and Performing at Its Best

1. Always use High Efficiency (HE) detergents and follow the HE detergent manufacturer’s instructions regarding the amount of HE detergent to use. Never use more than the recommended amount because that may increase the rate at which detergent and soil residue accumulate inside your washer which, in turn, may result in undesirable odor.
2. Use warm or hot water washes sometimes (not exclusively cold water washes) because they do a better job of controlling the rate at which soils and detergent accumulate.
3. Always leave the washer door slightly ajar between uses to help dry out the washer and avoid the buildup of odor-causing residue.
4. Periodically clean residue from all interior surfaces of the window. For better care, wipe the entire inside of the door with a damp cloth.
