the washer feet cannot slide easily. Leveling feet
that can move or slide on the oor can contribute to
excess vibration and noise due to poor contact with
the oor.
• If a drip pan must be used, take extra care to follow
the instructions provided with the drip pan and make
sure the leveling feet are adjusted for rm and even
contact with the pan. Use of drip pans and failure to
properly level the machine may result in increased
vibration and noise during operation.
• Allow for sufcient space between the walls and the
washer for installation.
Power Outlet
• The power outlet must be within 60 inches (1.5 m)
of either side of the washer.
• The appliance and outlet must be positioned so that
the plug is easily accessible.
• Do not overload the outlet with more than one
appliance.
• The outlet must be grounded in accordance with
current electrical wiring codes and regulations.
• Use a time-delay fuse or circuit breaker.

Leveling the Washer
The drum of your new washer spins at very high
speeds. To minimize vibration, noise, and unwanted
movement, the oor must be a level, solid surface.
NOTE
• Adjust the leveling feet only as far as necessary to
level the washer. Extending the leveling feet more
than necessary can cause the washer to vibrate.
• Before installing the washer, make sure that the
oor is clean, dry and free of dust, dirt, water and
oil so the washer feet cannot slide easily. Feet
that move or slide on the oor can contribute to
excessive vibration and noise due to poor contact
with the oor.
Position the washer in its nal location.
1
Take special care not to pinch, strain, or crush the
water and drain lines. If you have a carpenter's
level, you can place it across the top of the
washer. The slope beneath the washer should not
exceed 1 inch, and all four leveling feet must rest
rmly on the oor.

End of Cycle
7
When the cycle is nished, a melody will sound. Immediately remove your
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.
NOTE
• The washer rotates the laundry in a way that allows it to use less water while still fully saturating your clothing.
It is normal to not be able 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. To open the door in these circumstances, press Add Garments. To stop a cycle and
drain the water completely, turn the power off, then on, and then press Rinse+Spin.
18 OPERATION
Sorting Laundry
CAUTION
• The washer can be fully loaded, but the drum
should not be tightly packed with items. The door
of the washer should close easily.
• Use the Bedding cycle for buoyant or
nonabsorbent items such as pillows or
comforters. Failure to follow this caution can
result in leakage.
• Clothing or articles that are waterproof or water
resistant must be washed in the Bedding cycle
only. (e.g. water resistant clothing, mattress
covers, outdoor clothes, plastic mats, etc.)
Otherwise, it may result in personal injury or
damage to the washer, clothes, walls, oor, and
surrounding objects due to abnormal vibration.
• Remove the stufng 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
oor.
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.
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 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 heavy
or sturdy fabric types. Washing heavy fabrics in a
delicate load can result in poor wash performance
for the heavy fabrics and possible damage to the
delicates.
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.)

19OPERATION
Loading the Washer
• 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.
• Combine large and small items in a load. Load large
items rst. Large items should not be more than half
of 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.
• Do not wash single small items. Add 1-2 similar
items to the load to prevent an out-of-balance load.
• 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.
• Do not wash/spin waterproof items. Washing
raincoats or sleeping bags may result in abnormal
vibration or may cause the load to bounce, which
could damage the drum.
• Wash small, light items in a mesh bag. Items like
underwear can get caught in the door seal, and
a brassiere hook may damage other items or the
drum.
• 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.

20 OPERATION
IMPORTANT:
• Do not place or store laundry products, such as
detergent, bleach, or liquid fabric softener, on
top of your washer or dryer. Wipe up any spills
immediately. These products can damage the
machine's nish and controls.
Pre-Wash Detergent Compartment
Add liquid or powdered detergent to this compartment
when using the Pre-Wash option. Always use HE
(High-Efciency) 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, 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 (High-Efciency) detergent with your
washer.
NOTE
• Never exceed the manufacturer’s recommendations
when adding detergent. 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.
• When using liquid detergent, make sure the liquid
detergent cup and insert are in place. Do not
exceed the maximum ll line.
• When using powdered detergent, remove the insert
and liquid detergent cup from the compartment.
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 may clog on 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 add powdered bleach to this compartment.
The bleach compartment is designed to dispense
liquid chlorine bleach only. Powdered or liquid colorsafe bleach will not dispense properly.
• Always follow the manufacturer's recommendations
when adding bleach. Never add more than one cup
and do not exceed the maximum ll line since this
can cause the bleach to be dispensed immediately,
resulting in damage to fabrics. Using too much
bleach can 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 Oxi products in the
same cycle with liquid chlorine bleach.
WARNING
• 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.
21OPERATION
Fabric Softener Compartment
This compartment holds liquid fabric softener, which
is automatically dispensed during the nal rinse cycle.
Do not exceed the manufacturer’s recommendations
when adding softener. Using too much fabric softener
can result in buildup in clothing and the washer.
Either powdered or liquid fabric softener may be
used.
• Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations when
adding fabric softener. Do not exceed the maximum
ll line. Using too much fabric softener may stain
clothes.
• Dilute concentrated fabric softeners with warm
water. Do not exceed the maximum ll line.
• Never pour fabric softener directly onto the load or
into the drum.
Detergent Use
This washer is designed for use with only HE (High-
Efciency) detergents. HE detergents produce fewer
suds, dissolve more efciently 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 machine damage.
• Do not use more than one detergent pod 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, press the Extra Rinse button.

ENGLISH
Designed specially to use only HE
(High-Efciency) detergent
• 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.
• 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 machine.
• Use extra care when measuring 2X and 3X
concentrated detergents because even a small
amount extra can lead to problems.
• Detergents designated as HE-compatible may not
provide optimal results.
