IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING! For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
WATER HEATER SAFETY
Under certain conditions hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that has not been used for two weeks or more. Hydrogen gas can be explosive under these circumstances.
If the hot water has not been used for two weeks or more, prevent the possibility of damage or injury by turning on all hot water faucets and allowing them to run for several minutes. Do this before using any electrical appliance which is connected to the hot water system. This simple procedure will allow any built-up hydrogen gas to escape. Since the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame or appliance during this process.
PROPER INSTALLATION
This washer must be properly installed and located in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used. If you did not receive an Installation Instructions sheet, you can receive one by calling, toll-free 1-800-361-3400.
■Install or store where it will not be exposed to |

codes and ordinances. Follow details in Installation |

appliances free of combustible materials such as |

with, or inside this or any other appliance. |
WHEN USING THE WASHER |
|
Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner’s Manual.
■Never reach into washer while it is moving. Wait until the machine has completely stopped before opening the lid.
■Do not mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or acids such as vinegar and/or rust remover. Mixing different chemicals can produce a toxic gas which may cause death.
■Do not wash or dry articles that have been cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with combustible or explosive substances (such as wax, oil, paint, gasoline, degreasers, dry-cleaning solvents, kerosene, etc.) which may ignite or explode. Do not add these substances to the wash water. Do not use or place these substances around your washer or dryer during operation.
■The laundry process can reduce the flame retardancy of fabrics. To avoid such a result, carefully follow the garment manufacturer’s wash and care instructions.
■To minimize the possibility of electric shock, unplug this appliance from the power supply or disconnect the washer at the household distribution panel by removing the fuse or switching off the circuit breaker before attempting any maintenance or cleaning. NOTE: Turning the Cycle Selector knob to an off position does NOT disconnect the appliance from the power supply.
■Never attempt to operate this appliance if it is damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled, or has missing or broken parts, including a damaged cord or plug.
WHEN NOT IN USE
■Turn off water faucets to relieve pressure on hoses and valves and to minimize leakage if a break or rupture should occur. Check the condition of the fill hoses; they may need replacement after 5 years.
■Before discarding a washer, or removing it from service, remove the washer lid to prevent children from hiding inside.
■Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of this appliance unless specifically recommended in this Owner’s Manual, or in published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.
■Do not tamper with controls.
Read and follow this Safety Information carefully.

Signal |
When you use extra detergent or bleach to clean heavily soiled clothes, you may want to use the Extra Rinse option. This option provides a second deep cold rinse in the COTTONS cycle. Turn the Extra Rinse knob to SET.
The washer will pause for a few minutes before the Extra
Rinse option begins.

If the SIGNAL option is selected, a signal will sound just before the end of the cycle. This reminds you to remove the clothes to avoid excess wrinkling before drying. If you selected EXTRA RINSE the signal will sound at the end of the cycle and at the end of the
EXTRA RINSE.

About the control settings.
1 Load Size
The water level should just cover the clothes. Adjust the load size accordingly. Loosely load clothes no higher than the top row of holes in the washer tub.
2 Wash/Spin Speed
The agitator moves clothes around for a cleaner wash; the basket spins later in the cycle to release water from the load. The Wash/Spin Speed dial sets the speed of both the agitator and the basket.
With Normal wash speed, the agitator moves faster. Use for cottons, denims and play clothes. With Gentle wash speed, the agitator moves slower. Use for delicate and knit items.
The Fast spin speed is for durable items. The Slow spin speed is for delicate items like sweaters and lingerie. Clothes will be less dry than when using Fast spin speed.
3 Temperature
Select the water temperature for the wash and rinse cycles. Always follow fabric manufacturer’s care label or instructions when laundering. Follow the water temperature guide on the washer lid.
4 Wash Cycle
The wash cycle controls the length of the washing process. The chart below will help you match the wash cycle setting with your clothing.
COTTONS For heavy to lightly soiled cottons, household linens, work and play clothes.

About washer features. NOTE: Not all features are available on all washer models.
Liquid Bleach Dispenser (on some models)
The dispenser dilutes liquid chlorine bleach before it reaches into your wash load.
1 Check clothing care labels for special instructions.
2 Measure liquid bleach carefully, following instructions on the bottle.
■ Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly onto clothes or into the wash basket.
■ Do not pour powdered bleach into bleach dispenser.
3 Before starting the washer, pour measured amount of bleach directly into bleach dispenser. Avoid splashing or over-filling dispenser. If you prefer to use powdered bleach, add it into the wash basket with your detergent.
■Do not mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or acids such as vinegar and/or rust remover. Mixing can produce a toxic gas which may cause death.
The Agitator Cap or Fabric Softener Dispenser (depending on model)
The agitator cap fits into the top of the agitator. If it accidentally comes off, simply put it back on.
The fabric softener dispenser automatically releases liquid fabric softener at the proper time during the cycle.
Do not stop the washer during the first spin. This will cause the dispenser to empty too soon.
To use, follow these steps:
1 Make sure dispenser is securely attached to agitator.
2 Use only liquid fabric softener. Pour into dispenser, using amount recommended on package.
Never pour fabric softener directly on clothes. It may stain them.
3 Add water to dispenser until it reaches the maximum fill line.
Do not pour anything into the agitator if the agitator cap or dispenser is removed.
Cleaning the Fabric Softener Dispenser (on some models)

3
Separate for cleaning.
Remove the dispenser from the top of the agitator.
Separate the dispenser cup from the cover by grasping the top and pushing down on the inside of the cup with your fingers. Dispenser cup will pop free from the cover.
To clean the dispenser, soak both the dispenser cup and the dispenser cover in the following solution:
■1 US gallon (3.8 liters) warm water
■1/4 cup (60 ml) heavy duty liquid detergent
■1 cup (240 ml) bleach
4 If necessary, loosen build-up with a clean, soft cloth after soaking. Do not use a stiff brush; you may roughen the surface of the dispenser.
5 Rinse and reassemble dispenser. Place dispenser back on the agitator.
