WASHER SAFETY

WHAT’S NEW UNDER THE LID?
Your new washer will operate differently than your past agitator-style washer.
Lid Lock
To allow for higher spin speeds, the lid will lock and
the Lid Locked light will turn on. When this light is
lit, the lid is locked and cannot be opened. When
this light is blinking, the washer is paused. When
this light is off, the lid can be opened. After a cycle
is started, water will enter washer briey, pause,
and then lock. If you need to open the lid to add
a garment after this point, you must press START/
PAUSE/UNLOCK and wait for the lid to unlock.
The lid will only unlock after washer movement has
stopped. Depending on when in the cycle you try
to pause, it may take several seconds to several
minutes for the lid to unlock. Press START/PAUSE/
UNLOCK to resume the cycle.
Sensing
This washer will perform a series of spins to check
for load balance. During this time, a series of clicks
and a whirring noise signal that sensing technology
is determining if there is an off-balance load.
IMPORTANT:
• Washer will not operate if the lid is open.
• Water will enter washer briey, pause, and then lock before sensing process begins. The sensing process
may take 2-3 minutes before steady ow of main wash water.
• Fabric Softener Added option must be selected to ensure fabric softener dispenses at the correct time.
Sounds
At different stages of the wash cycle, you may
hear sounds and pauses that are different from
those of your previous washer. For example, you
may hear a clicking and hum at the beginning of
the cycle as the lid lock goes through a self-test.
There will be different kinds of humming and
whirring sounds as the agitator tests for load
balance or moves the load. And, sometimes,
you may hear nothing at all as the washer allows
time for clothes to soak.
Spray Rinse
Select cycles default to a spray rinse. During these
cycles, you will hear water enter the washer as the
tub spins, allowing the rinse water to penetrate
clothes. Check the “Cycle Guide” for details.

WATER LEVEL
Select the setting most suitable for your load. Small will
add a low amount of water for smaller loads and Super
will add the most amount of water for large or bulky loads.
Items need to move freely. Tightly packing can lead to poor
cleaning performance, and may increase wrinkling and
tangling.
2
WASH TEMPERATURE
Wash Temperature senses and maintains uniform
water temperatures by regulating incoming hot and
cold water.
Select a wash temperature based on the type of fabric
and soils being washed. For best results and following
the garment label instructions, use the warmest wash
water safe for your fabric.
• Warm and hot water will be cooler than what your
previous washer provided.
• Even in a cold and cool water wash, some warm water
may be added to the washer to maintain a minimum
temperature.

OPTIONS
The following options may be added to most cycles.
ONE RINSE

At each stage of the process, you may notice sounds or
pauses that are different from traditional washers.
FILL
When the START/PAUSE button is pressed, the water will
enter washer briey, pause, and then lock before sensing
process begins. The washer will use spins to check for
load balance. The sensing process may take 2-3 minutes
before steady ow of main wash water. You may hear the
hum of the spins before lling. This is normal.
WASH
You will hear the agitator moving the load. The motor
sounds may change at different stages in the cycle.
The wash time is determined by the selected soil level.
RINSE
You will hear sounds similar to the wash cycle as the
washer rinses and moves the load. You may hear the
motor turning on briey (short hum) to move the basket
while lling. Fabric softener will be added if the Fabric
Softener Added option was selected.
Some cycles use spray rinsing. After draining and
spinning out wash water, the washer will continue to spin
and spray in rinse water for the entire rinse time.
