OPERATION-WASHER

Using the Washer

• To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before
operating this appliance.

Operation Overview

1 Sort laundry and load the washer.

• Sort laundry by fabric type, soil level, color
and load size as needed. Open the door and
load items into the washer.

• If using single-use detergent packs, place
pack into the drum before loading the
laundry.

2 Add cleaning products.

• Add the proper amount of HE (High­Efficiency) detergent to the detergent
dispenser.

• If desired, add bleach or fabric softener to

soil level and option settings for the
selected cycle are shown.

•The Normal cycle must be selected in order
to change its default settings.

• Pressing the Start/Pause button without
selecting a cycle immediately starts the
Normal cycle with the default settings.

• Not all modifiers and options are available
on all cycles. A different chime sounds and
the LED does not light up if the selection is
not allowed.

6 Begin cycle.

•Press the Start/Pause button to begin the
cycle. The door locks, and the washer
agitates briefly without water to measure
the weight of the load.

•If the Start/Pause button is not pressed
within a certain time, the washer shuts off
and all settings are lost.

7 End of cycle.

• When the cycle is finished, a melody
sounds. Immediately remove the clothing
from the washer to reduce wrinkling.

• Check around the door seal when removing
the load for small items that may be caught
in the seal.

• The washer rotates the laundry in a way that
allows it to use less water while still fully
saturating the clothing. It is normal to be unable
to see water during the wash cycle.

• If the temperature or the water level inside the
machine is too high, the door will not unlock
when the Start/Pause button is pressed, and
the Add Item function will not be available (on
applicable models). To stop a cycle and drain the
water completely, turn the power off, then on,
and then select Rinse+Spin.

5 Adjust settings.

• Default settings for the selected cycle can
be changed, if desired, using the cycle
modifier and option buttons.

Sorting Laundry

CAUTION

11OPERATION-WASHER

• Clothing or articles that are waterproof or water-resistant must be washed in the Waterproof, Bedding,
Bulky/Large, or Jumbo Wash cycle only. (Examples include water resistant clothing, mattress covers,

outdoor clothes, and plastic mats.) Failure to do so may result in personal injury or damage to the
washer, clothes, walls, floor, and surrounding objects due to abnormal vibration.

• Remove the stuffing from pillows and cushions before washing the covers. Failure to do so can cause
excessive vibration, resulting in damage to the washer, clothes, nearby objects, walls, and floor.

Grouping Similar Items

For the best washing results, and to reduce the possibility of damage to clothing, sort clothing into loads
made up of similar items.

Mixing different fabric types and/or soil levels can result in poor wash performance, color transfer,
discoloration, fabric damage or linting. Fabrics should be sorted into groups as described below.

Colors

Sort articles by color. Wash dark clothes separately 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 heavy or sturdy fabric types. Washing heavy fabrics with
delicates can result in poor wash performance for the heavy fabrics and possible damage to the delicates.

ENGLISH

Lint Type

Some fabrics attract and bind lint to them while others give off lint in the laundry process. Avoid mixing
these lint collectors and lint producers in the same load. Mixing these fabrics will result in pilling and
linting on the lint collectors. (For example, lint collector - knit sweater; lint producer - terry cloth towels.)

Loading the Washer

• Clothing or articles that are waterproof or water­resistant must be washed in the Waterproof,
Bedding, Bulky/Large, or Jumbo Wash cycle
only. (Examples include water resistant clothing,
mattress covers, outdoor clothes, and plastic
mats.) Failure to do so may result in personal
injury or damage to the washer, clothes, walls,
floor, and surrounding objects due to abnormal
vibration.

General Tips

• Check and empty pockets. Paper clips, coins,
matches, etc.can damage clothing and the
washer.

• Close zippers and hooks, and tie drawstrings to
prevent snagging or tangling of clothes.

• Pretreat heavily stained areas for best results.

• Brush off heavy soil, dust, and hair from items
before washing. Excess dirt or sand can abrade
other fabrics and lead to poor wash
performance.

• For best performance, load clothes as shown.

- Do not press down on items while stacking
them in the drum.

- Load clothes loosely, and do not overfill the
drum. Clothes need room to circulate in order
to get clean.

• Combine large and small items in the drum.
Load large items first. Large items should not be
more than half of the total load.

• The washer can be fully loaded, but the drum
should not be tightly packed with items. The
door of the washer must close easily.

• The washer will not fill or operate with the door
open.

Bulky Items

• Wash thick, bulky items individually. Heavy
blankets, comforters, bedspreads, or pet beds
can get tangled or cause an unbalanced load if
combined with other items.

13OPERATION-WASHER

Small Items

• Do not wash a single small item. Add enough
similar items to the load to prevent an out-of­balance load.

• Wash small, light items in a mesh bag. Small
items can get caught in the impeller at the
bottom of the drum, and brassiere hooks can
snag on other clothing or the drum.

Adding Cleaning Products

About Detergent Use

This washer is designed for use with only HE (High­Efficiency) detergents.

• HE detergents produce fewer suds, dissolve
more efficiently to improve washing and rinsing
performance, and help to keep the interior of
the washer clean. Using detergent that is not HE
may cause oversudsing and unsatisfactory
performance which could result in error codes,
cycle failure, and washer damage.

• Detergents designated as HE-compatible may
not provide optimal results.

• For proper wash performance, always measure
detergent using the measuring device provided
by the detergent manufacturer. For an average
load, use less than half of the recommended
maximum. Use less detergent for soft water,
light soil, or smaller loads.

• Use extra care when measuring 2X and 3X
concentrated detergents because even a small
amount of extra detergent can lead to problems.

• Never use more than the maximum amount of
detergent recommended by the manufacturer.
Using too much detergent can lead to
oversudsing, poor rinsing, detergent buildup in
clothing, and residue buildup that can contribute
to odors in the washer.

d Powdered detergent

Single-Use Detergent Packs

• Do not use more than one single-use detergent
pack in the washer. Using too much detergent
may cause oversudsing and unsatisfactory
performance. Reduce detergent amount or add
an extra rinse if detergent residue is left on
fabrics. To add an extra rinse, select the Extra
Rinse option.

• Place liquid or powdered detergent packs in the
drum before loading laundry. Do not place
detergent packs in the dispenser.

Using the Dispenser

To add cleaning products to the automatic
dispenser:

1 Open the dispenser drawer.

2 Load the laundry products into the

appropriate compartments.

• Follow the manufacturer’s
recommendations when adding cleaning
products.

CAUTION

WARNING

NOTE

3 Gently close the detergent dispenser drawer

before starting the cycle.

• Slamming the drawer closed may result in
the detergent overflowing into another
compartment or dispensing into the drum
earlier than programmed.

• Be careful not to get a hand caught in the
drawer while closing.

• It is normal for a small amount of water to
remain in the dispenser compartments at
the end of the cycle.

• Do not place or store laundry products, such as
detergent, bleach, or liquid fabric softener, on
top of your washer. These products can damage
the washer’s finish and controls.

Pre-wash Detergent Compartment

Add liquid or powdered detergent to this
compartment when using the Pre-wash option.
Always use HE (High-Efficiency) detergent with
your washer.

• When using the Pre-wash option, liquid
detergent for the main wash needs to be loaded
in the liquid detergent cup accessory in the main
wash dispenser (where applicable), to prevent it
from being dispensed with the pre-wash
detergent.

• The amount of detergent added for the Pre-
wash option is 1/2 the amount recommended
for the main wash cycle. For example, if the main
wash cycle requires one measure of detergent,
add 1/2 measure for the Pre-wash option.

Main Wash Detergent Compartment

This compartment holds laundry detergent for the
main wash cycle. Either powdered or liquid
detergent may be used in this compartment.

• The detergent is added to the load at the
beginning of the cycle. Always use HE (High­Efficiency) detergent with your washer.

• Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Using too
much detergent can result in detergent buildup
in clothing and the washer.

• Liquid or powdered color-safe bleach may be
added to the main wash compartment with
detergent of the same type. Do not mix liquids
and powders

• If the dispenser has a liquid detergent cup and
insert:

- Make sure they are in place when using liquid

detergent.

- Make sure to remove them when using
powdered detergent. Powdered detergent will
not dispense with the liquid detergent cup and
insert in place.

• If you use a detergent that does not dissolve
easily or a detergent with high viscosity, it will
leave a residue and clog the dispenser.

Liquid Bleach Compartment

This compartment holds liquid bleach, which is
dispensed automatically at the proper time during
the wash cycle. The dispenser is activated twice to
ensure complete dispensing of the bleach. Any
liquid remaining in the dispenser at the end of the
cycle is water, not bleach.

• Do not mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or
acids such as vinegar or rust/scale remover.
Mixing chemicals like these can produce a lethal
gas, resulting in severe injury or death.

• Do not add powdered bleach to this
compartment. The bleach compartment is
designed to dispense liquid chlorine bleach only.
Powdered or liquid color-safe bleach will not
dispense properly.

• Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations
when adding bleach. Never add more than one
cup, and do not exceed the maximum fill line or
the bleach may be dispensed immediately and
damage fabrics. Using too much bleach can also
damage fabrics.

• Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach
directly onto the load or into the drum. Fabric
damage can occur.

• Do not use color-safe bleach or oxygen bleach in
the same cycle with liquid chlorine bleach.

Fabric Softener Compartment

This compartment holds fabric softener, which is
automatically dispensed during the final rinse
cycle. Either powdered or liquid fabric softener
may be used.

• Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Using too
much fabric softener may stain clothes or cause
buildup on fabrics or in the washer.

• Dilute concentrated fabric softeners with warm
water.

• Never pour fabric softener directly onto the load
or into the drum.

Fabric Care Labels

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 drying results, and to reduce the
possibility of damage to clothing, sort clothes into
loads that can be dried with the same drying cycle.

Different fabrics have different care requirements,
and some fabrics will dry more quickly than others.

Woolen Items

Always follow fabric care labels before drying
woolen items in a dryer. After the cycle, the items
may still be damp. Do not repeat the cycle. Pull the
items to their original shape if needed and lay
them flat to finish drying.
