READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE

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.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING : To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using

the washer, follow basic precautions, including the following:

• Read all instructions before using the washer.

• Do not wash articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances, as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.

• Do not add gasoline, dry 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 washing machine, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.

• Do not allow children to play on or in the washer. Close supervision of children is necessary when the washer is used near children.

• Before the washer is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to prevent children from hiding inside.

• Do not install or store the washer where it will be exposed to the weather.

• Do not tamper with controls.

• Do not repair or replace any part of the washer or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in the user-maintenance instructions or published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.

• See Installation Instructions for grounding requirements.

• ALWAYS follow the fabric care instructions supplied by the garment manufacturer.

• Do not place items exposed to cooking oil in your washer. Items contaminated with cooking oils may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch fire.

• Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.

■ Level floor

• Allowable slope under entire washer is 1°.

• To minimize noise and vibration, the washer MUST be installed on a solidly constructed floor.

• Carpeting and soft tile surfaces are not recommended.

• Never install the washer on a platform or weakly supported structure.

NOTE: A firm, solid floor is even more critical to a front-

loading washer than to a top-loader. If your floor is wood and/or frame construction, you may need to reinforce it. Front-loaders use substantially faster spin speeds than top-loaders, causing greater vibration. If the floor is not solid, your washer will vibrate. You will hear and feel the vibration throughout your house.

■ Power outlet

• Must be within 60 in. (1.5 m) of either side of the

washer. Do not overload the outlet with more than one appliance.

• Time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended.

NOTE: It is the personal responsibility and obligation of the

customer to have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

CAUTION

CAUTION concerning the Power Cord

Most appliances recommend they be placed upon a dedicated circuit; that is, a single outlet circuit which powers only that appliance and has no additional outlets or branch circuits. Check the specification page of this owner's manual to be certain. Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets, extension cords, frayed power cords, or damaged or cracked wire insulation are dangerous. Any of these conditions could result in electric shock or fire. Periodically examine the cord of your appliance, and if its appearance indicates damage or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of the appliance, and have the cord replaced with an exact replacement part by an authorized servicer. Protect the power cord from physical or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted, kinked, pinched, closed in a door, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall outlets, and the point where the cord exits the appliance.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before operating this appliance.

1. Fabric Care Labels

Look for a care label on your clothes. This will tell you about the fabric content of your garment and how it should be washed.

2. Sorting

To get the best results, sort clothes into loads that can be washed with the same wash cycle. Different fabrics need to be washed in different ways. Always sort dark colors from pale colors and whites. Wash separately as dye and lint transfer can occur causing discoloration of white clothing. If possible, do not wash heavily soiled items with lightly soiled ones.

Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light) Separate clothes according to amount of soil. Color (White, Lights, Darks) Separate white fabrics from colored fabrics. Lint (Lint Producers, Collectors) Wash lint producers and lint collectors separately.

3. Check before loading

Combine large and small items in a load. Load large items first. Large items should not be more than half the total wash load. Do not wash single items. This may cause an out-of-balance load. Add one or two similar items.

• Check all the pockets to make sure that they are empty. Things such as clip, matches, pens, coins, and keys can damage both your washer and your clothes.

• Close zippers, hooks, and strings to make sure that these items do not snag on other clothes.

• Pretreat dirt and stains by brushing a little detergent dissolved in water onto stains like collars and cuffs to help lift dirt.

NOTE: Do not wash or spin water-proof clothes.

sing the dispenser

The automatic dispenser consists of four compartments which hold 1) liquid chlorine bleach,

2) liquid fabric softener, 3) liquid or powdered detergent for prewash and 4) liquid or powdered detergent and color safe bleach for main wash.

All laundry products can be added at once in their respective dispenser compartments. They will be dispensed at the appropriate time for most effective cleaning. After loading the laundry additives into the dispenser, close the dispenser drawer.

Add detergent, bleach and fabric softener to the automatic dispenser following these steps:

1. Open the dispenser drawer.

2. Load the laundry products into the appropriate compartments.

3. Close the dispenser drawer.

■ About detergent

Low sudsing detergent is recommended for this washer. Use the manufacturer's recommended amount. If low sudsing detergent is not available, a reduced amount of regular detergent may be used. Because reducing the amount of detergent may reduce cleaning, it is important to pretreat stains, sort carefully by color and soil level, and avoid overloading. Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for water temperature, water hardness, size and soil level of the load. For best results, avoid using too much detergent.
