If you must lay the washer down to remove the base packaging materials, always protect the side of the washer and lay it carefully on its side. DO NOT lay the washer on its front or back.

To prevent internal damage during transport, the washer is equipped with four shipping bolts and plastic retainers.

IMPORTANT:

vThese bolts and retainers MUST be removed before operating the washer.

vFailure to remove shipping bolts and retainers may cause severe vibration and noise, which can lead to permanent damage to the washer.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

CONNECTING THE WATER LINES

vIMPORTANT: Use new hoses when installing the washer. Do NOT reuse old hoses.

vIMPORTANT: ONLY use new, high-quality inlet hoses when installing this laundry product. Aftermarket hoses

DUH QRW JXDUDQWHHG WR oW RU IXQFWLRQ FRUUHFWO\ 2WKHU hoses may not tighten correctly and could cause leaks. Subsequent damage to product or property will not be covered under the terms of the product warranty.

vWater supply pressure must be between 20 psi and 120 psi (138 - 827 kPa). If the water supply pressure is more than 120 psi, a pressure reducing valve must be installed.

vPeriodically check the hose for cracks, leaks, and wear, and replace the hose if necessary.

vMake sure that the water lines are not stretched, pinched, crushed, or kinked.

vThe washer should never be installed or stored in a location subject to freezing temperatures. Damage to the water lines and internal mechanisms of the washer can result. If the washer was exposed to freezing temperatures prior to installation, allow it to stand at room temperature for several hours before use and check for leaks prior to operation.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

CONNECTING THE DRAIN HOSE

vThe drain hose should always be properly secured. Failure to properly secure the drain hose can result in pRRGLQJ DQG SURSHUW\ GDPDJH

vDo not install the end of the drain hose lower than 29 in. (73.7 cm) or higher than 96 in. (243.8 cm) above the bottom of the washer.

vThe drain must be installed in accordance with any applicable local codes and regulations.

vMake sure that the drain hose is not stretched, pinched, crushed, or kinked.

NOTE:

A drain hose extension kit is available if the drain hose is not long enough. Do not extend the drain hose more than 6 feet (2m), as this will

cause poor draining, which will result in poor wash and spin performance.

Strap

Drain Hose

Install the end of the drain hose into the elbow bracket. Do not extend the drain hose more than 4 inches

(10 cm) past the end of the elbow bracket. Use a tie strap to secure the drain hose in place.

NOTE:

vTotal height of the hose end should not exceed 96 in. (243.8 cm) from the bottom of the washer.

vThe drain hose should be inserted no more than 8-12 inches (20-30 cm) into the standpipe. Inserting more than 8-12 inches (20-30 cm) can cause mold or microorganisms to spread to the inside of the washer.

If the water valves and drain are built into the wall, fasten the drain hose to one of the water hoses with the tie strap (ribbed side on inside).

HOW TO USE

SORTING WASH LOADS
Fabric Care Labels	Loading the Washer

Many articles of clothing include a fabric care label. Using the chart below, adjust the cycle and option selections to care for your clothing according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.

Grouping Similar Items

For the best washing results, and to reduce the possibility of damage to clothing, care should be taken to sort the clothing into loads that are made up of similar items.

0L[LQJ GLçHUHQW IDEULF W\SHV DQG RU VRLO OHYHOV FDQ UHVXOW in poor wash performance, color transfer or discoloration, fabric damage or linting. Fabrics should be sorted into groups as described below.

vCheck all pockets to make sure that they are empty.

Items such as clips, matches, pens, coins, and keys can damage both your washer and your clothes.

vClose zippers, hooks, and drawstrings to prevent these items from snagging or tangling on other clothes.

vPretreat heavily stained areas for best results.

v&RPELQH ODUJH DQG VPDOO LWHPV LQ D ORDG /RDG ODUJH LWHPV oUVW

vLarge items should not be more than half of the total wash load.

vThe drum should not be tightly packed with items. The door of the washer should close easily.

vTo prevent an out-of-balance load, do not wash single items. Add one or two similar items to the load.

Large, bulky items, such as a blanket, comforter, or bedspread, should be washed individually.

vDo not wash or spin waterproof items, such as rain coats, sleeping bags, etc.

vWhen unloading the washer, check under the door seal for small items.

NOTE: Make sure that the door seal area is clear when closing the door. Overloading the washer can cause items to get caught between the door and the seal. This can damage both the items and the seal.

Colors

Sort articles by color. Wash dark clothes together in a separate load from light colors or whites. Mixing dark clothes with light clothes can result in dye transfer or discoloration of the lighter clothes.

Soil Level

Wash heavily soiled clothing together. Washing lightly soiled clothing in the same load with heavily soiled clothing could result in poor wash performance for the lightly soiled clothing.

Fabric Type

Delicate articles should not be mixed with heavier or sturdier fabric types. Washing delicates in a load with heavy fabrics can result in damage to the more delicate fabrics. Washing heavier fabrics in a delicate load can result in poor wash performance for the heavier fabrics and possible damage to the delicates.

Lint Type

Some fabrics attract and bind lint to them while others

ABOUT THE DISPENSER DRAWER

The automatic dispenser consists of four compartments which hold:

vLiquid chlorine bleach.

vLiquid fabric softener.

vLiquid or powdered detergent for prewash.

The amount of detergent added for the Pre-Wash option should be ½ the amount recommended for the main wash cycle. For example, if the main wash cycle requires ½ measure of detergent, add ¼ measure to the Pre-Wash compartment.

NOTE: If using liquid detergent for the main wash when using the Pre-Wash option, the liquid detergent cup accessory must be used in the main wash dispenser. This will prevent the main wash liquid detergent from being dispensed immediately.

Main Wash Detergent Compartment

This compartment holds laundry detergent for the main wash cycle. The detergent is added to the load at the

Never exceed the manufacturer’s recommendations when adding detergent. Using too much detergent can result in detergent buildup in clothing and the washer.

NOTE: Liquid or powdered color-safe bleach may be added to the main wash compartment with detergent of the same type. DO NOT add liquid or powdered color-safe bleach to the bleach dispenser. DO NOT mix liquid and powdered cleaning agents within the same compartment.

For proper wash performance, always measure the detergent using the measuring device provided by the detergent manufacturer.

Filling the Dispenser

To add detergent, bleach, and fabric softener to the automatic dispenser:

IMPORTANT: Not all detergents are the same. Pay careful attention to the amount of detergent used to avoid oversudsing, poor rinsing and detergent buildup in clothing, and residue buildup that can contribute to odors in the machine. NEVER use a cup or scoop other than the one supplied by the manufacturer of the detergent you are using. Never use more than the maximum amount of detergent recommended by the manufacturer.

Always measure the detergent amount. While HE detergents are designed for this type of washing machine, be careful when measuring the detergent. For most normal loads, no more than ¼ to ½ of cap or scoop of HE detergent should be used.

NOTE: Extra care must be exercised when using ; and ; concentrated detergents because even a little bit extra can contribute to the problems mentioned above.

NOTE: Detergents designated as HE compatible may not provide optimal results.

MAGNETIC DOOR PLUNGER

Safely and conveniently secure the door slightly ajar with the magnetic door plunger. This will promote air circulation and allow the interior of the machine to dry.

To use this feature, remove the clean laundry then position the door so that the door is almost closed. When the magnetic door plunger comes into contact with the metal washer cabinet, it will secure the door slightly open, allowing the interior of the washer to dry.
