ii_i,! Read all instructions before using the appliance.

As with any equipment using electricity and having moving parts, there are potential hazards. To use this appliance safely,the operator should become familiar with the

instructions for operation of the appliance and always exercise care when using it. Do not install or store this appliance where it win be exposed to the weather.

_/6 Install and level the clothes washer on a floor that can support the weight.

£;

This appliance must be properly grounded. Never plug the appliance cord into a receptacle which is not grounded adequately and in accordance with local and national codes. See installation instructions for grounding this appliance.

To avoid the possibilit y of fire or explosion:

° Do not wash items that have been previously cleaned in,washed in, soaked

in, or spotted with gasoline, drydeaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode. Hand wash and line dry any items containing these substances.

Any material on which you have used a cleaning solvent, or which is saturat-

ed with flammable liquids or solids, should not be placed in the clothes

washer until all traces of these liquids or solids and their fumes have been

removed.

These items include acetone, denatured alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, some

liquid household cleaners, some spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax

removers.

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 a washing machine or combination washer-dryer, 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 machine wash fiberglass materials. Small particles can stick to fabrics washed in following loads and cause skin irritation.

Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to the washing compartment.

Do not sit on top of the clothes washer. Inlet hoses are subject to damage and deterioration over time. Check the hoses periodically for bulges, kinks, cuts, wear or leaks and

replace them every five years.

The tub can be loaded completely full with dry unfolded

clothes. However, do not pad< the tub tightly.

Overloading may reduce washing efficiency and possibly cause creasing or wrinkling of the load.

When washing big bulky items or a couple of small items

that do not fi[[ the tub completely, such as a rug or two sweaters, a few towels should be added for improved tumbling and spin performance.

" When washing heavily soiled Ioads, it is very important to

DE ER_.,_Ex

.........................},

Your Haytag Neptune _R_washer is

designed to use either high efficiency (HE) detergents or regular detergents normally used with topoloading wash°

ers.

For best cleaning resuits_ use a high efficiency detergent such asTide HE orWisk HE s. High effio ciency detergents contain suds suppressors which reduce or eliminate suds.When less suds are pro= duced, the load tumbles more efficiently and cleaning results are maximized.

When using regular detergent formulated for top=

loading washers_ it is important to pay dose atteno tion to the soil level of the load, load size, and

water hardness _s. "To avoid over-sudsing,

reduce the amount of detergent used with soft water or with small or lightly soiled

loads.

_ Bland names ale tladernaiks of the respective manufacturers.

-_'_ To determine water hardness in 7our area, contact your local water utility or State University Extension office in ]four alea.

I. Pour the recommended amount of laundry deter:

gent direcdy into the detergent compartment before starting the clothes washer or as it is filling.

2. If colorosafe bleach is to be used_ it should be added with detergent to the detergent compartment for

best results. " When adding colorosafe bleach with detergent_ it

is best if both laundry products are in the same form; granular or liquid.

The automatic dispenser consists of three comparto

ments which hold i) liquid or granular detergent and color safe bieach_ 2) liquid chlorine bleach and 3) liquid fabric softener. All laundry products can be added at once in their respective dispenser compartments.They

wiil be dispensed at the appropriate time for most

effective cleaning.

After loading the laundry additives into the dispenser, dose the dispenser lid.

(Liquid Chlorine Bleach Only)

I, Add chlorine bleach to the bleach compartment.

DO NOT exceed the MAX FILL line. The liquid chlorine bleach compartment will hold 3/4 of a

cup.

2. Avoid splashing or over-filling the compartment. Over-filling the compartment will release the liquid chlorine bleach into the clothes

washer too early,

3, The washer automatically dispenses bleach into the

tub when there are approximately two minutes left in the wash portion of the cycle.This maximizes

the effectiveness of the bleach.

4. The dispenser automatically dilutes liquid chlorine bleach before it reaches the wash load.

age,such as weakening of the fibers or color loss,

if not used properly. 2. Ifyou prefer to use coloro safe, non-chlorine bleach, add it to the detergent compartment. Do not pour color-safe bleach into the bleach compartment.

i, Pour the recommended amount of liquid fabric solo

tener into the softener compartment. For smaller loads use less than one cap fuji,

2. Fabric softener should be diluted with warm water until it reaches the MAX FILL line on the compart-

ment. Do not tf11 above the MAX FILL line, If the co.part.eat is 11lied above the MAX

FILL line, fabric softener will enter the

clothes washer too early,

3, This compartment automatically releases liquid fab-

ric softener at the proper time during the rinse

cycle.

H© "_]t I, Use the softener compartment only for liquid fabric softeners. 2. Using the Downy

BalP is not recommended with this washer. It will

not add fabric softener at the appropriate time. Use the dispenser on top of the washer.

Turn off the water faucets after _nishing the day's washing. This will shut off the water suppi7 to the clothes washer and prevent the unH<eiy possibility of damage from escaping water.

Use a soft cloth to wipe up all detergent, bleach or other spills as they occur.

The interior of the washer should be cleaned periodi- cally to remove and dirt_ soil odor or bacteria residue that may remain in the washer as a result of washing clothes. VVe recommend taking the following steps every 60 to 120 days to clean and freshen your wash- er interior. The frequency with which the washer should be cleaned and freshened depends on factors such as usage_the amount of dirt, soil or bacteria being run through your washer, or the use of cold water.

Clean the following as recommended:

Control Panel - clean with a soft_ damp cloth. Do

not use abrasive powders or cleaning pads. Do not spray cleaners directly on the panel.

Cabinet - clean with soap and water.

Hake a solution of one cup chlorine bleach and two cups warm water. Be careful not to spill or splash

the bleach solution.

Wipe the lower portion of gray door seal with

bleach solution and soft cloth.

Fill the bleach dispenser with chlorine bleach.

Run the washer through a complete cycle using hot

water.

Repeat the wash cycle if necessary.

Hard water deposits may be removed, if needed using

a recommended cleaner labeled clothes washer safe.

The dispenser may need to be cleaned periodically due

to laundry additive build-up. For easy clean-up of the dispenser, grasp the removable two-compartment con- tainer (for bleach and softener) as shown in illustration

_5©TE Do not use any cleaning substance but water in the main dispenser. It is possible for cleaning substances to drain into the tub. If this should happen, set the washer for a rinse and spin cycle to remove any cleaning substance from

the washer before doing a load of laundry.

'Washers can be damaged if water is not removed from hoses and internaH components before storage. Prepare the washer for storage as follows:
