DISPENSER DRAWER
The dispenser drawer gives you the convenience of automatically adding HE detergent, liquid chlorine bleach, and liquid fabric
softener to the wash load at the proper time. See "Using the Dispenser Drawer" for information on using the dispenser drawer.
High Efficiency "H E" detergent compartment This compartment holds liquid or powdered H E detergent for
your main wash cycle.
Liquid fabric softener compartment
@
Automatically dilutes and dispenses liquid fabric softener at
the optimum time in the cycle. [] Use only liquid fabric softener in this dispenser.
Liquid chlorine bleach compartment
m
Automatically dilutes and dispenses liquid chlorine bleach at
the optimum time during the first rinse after the wash cycle. This compartment cannot dilute powdered bleach.
Choosing the Right Detergent
Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package will be marked "HE" or "High Efficiency:' Low-water washing creates excessive sudsing with a non-HE detergent. Using non-HE detergent will likely result in longer cycle times and reduced rinsing performance. It may also result in component failure and, over time, buildup of mold or mildew. HE detergents are low-sudsing and quick-dispersing to produce the right amount of suds for the best performance. They hold soil in suspension so it is not re-deposited onto clean clothes.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions to determine the amount of detergent to use.
Use only High Efficiency (HE) detergent.
CONTROLPANEL AND FEATURES
Cycle Status Lights
Delay
if a Delay Start is set, the Delay indicator will light and the delay time will count down in the display.
Door Locked
Door Locked will light to indicate that the door is locked and cannot be opened without first
pausing or canceling the cycle.
Sensing
When START is touched and held, the washer will first perform a self-test on the door lock
mechanism and the sensing light will come on. You will hear a click, the drum will make a partial
turn, and the door will unlock briefly before locking again.
Once the door has locked the second time, the washer will begin tumbling and adding water. This sensing process will continue throughout the cycle. You may also hear water flowing through
the dispenser, adding detergent to the load. After the load size is sensed, the estimated time based on load
size will be displayed. The actual cycle time may be lengthened; however, the display will continue to show the estimated time.
The sensing light will blink once a second at various times during the cycle, such as when the washer is reducing extra suds.
Add a Garment
When "Add a Garment" is lit, you may pause the washer, open the door, and add items.
Steaming
This will light to show that the cycle is using a steam boost for added cleaning power.

Fire Hazard
Never place items in the washer that are dampened with gasoline or other fiarnmable fluids.
No washer can completely remove oil. Do not dry anything that has ever had any type of oil on
it (including cooking oils). Doing so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
First wash cycle without laundry
Before washing clothes for the first time, if not completed during the final installation step, choose the NORMAL cycle and run it without clothes. Use only HE detergent. Use 1/2 the manufacturer's recommended amount for a medium-size load. This initial cycle serves to ensure the interior is clean before washing clothes.
1, Sort and prepare your laundry
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove ground prong. Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
f2, Add laundry products
Single-dose laundry packet, Oxi-type boosters, color-safe bleach, or fabric softener crystals can be added to the drum prior to adding laundry.
NOTE: Do not add clothes to washer drum prior to adding
laundry products. Always follow manufacturer's instructions.
Sort items by recommended cycle, water temperature, and colorfastness. Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled. Separate delicate items from sturdy fabrics. Treat stains promptly and check for colorfastness by testing stain remover products on
an inside seam.
IMPORTANT:
[] Empty pockets. Loose change, buttons, or any small object can
plug pumps and may require a service call.
[] Close zippers, fasten hooks, tie strings and sashes, and remove
non-washable trim and ornaments.
[] Mend rips and tears to avoid further damage to items
during washing.
[] Turn knits inside out to prevent pilling. Separate lint-takers from
lint-givers. Synthetics, knits, and corduroy fabrics will pick up lint
from towels, rugs, and chenille fabrics.
[] Do not dry garments if stains remain after washing, because heat
can set stains into fabric.
[] Always read and follow fabric care labels and laundry
product instructions. Improper usage may cause damage
to your garments.
3.Load laundry into washer
Place a load of sorted clothes loosely in the washer, items need to move freely for best cleaning and to reduce wrinkling and tangling. Close the washer door by pushing it firmly until the latch clicks.
[] Depending on load type and cycle, the washer can be fully
loaded, but not tightly packed. Washer door should close easily. See "Cycle Guide" for loading suggestions.
[] Mix large and small items and avoid washing single items. Load
evenly.
[] Wash small items in mesh garment bags. For multiple items, use
more than one bag and fill bags equally.

Choix du detergent approprie
Utiliser uniquement des detergents Haute efficacite. L.'emballage portera la mention "H E" ou "High Efficiency" (haute efficac[te).
Un lavage avec faible consommation d'eau produit un exces de mousse avec un detergent non HE ordinaire. II est probable
que I'utilisation d'un detergent ordinaire prolongera la duree des programmes et reduira la performance de ringage. Cec[ peut auss[
entratner des defa[llances de composants et, avec le temps, une accumulation de moisissure. Les detergents HE produisent peu de
mousse et se dissolvent rapidement pour produire une quant[te de mousse ideale pour une performance optimale. IIs retiennent les
particules de salete en suspension afin qu'elles ne se redeposent pas sur les v&tements propres. Suivre les recommandations du
fabricant pour determiner la quantite de detergent & utiliser.

brievement avant de se verrouiller a nouveau. Une fois que la porte s'est verrouillee une seconde fois,
la laveuse commence & culbuter et a ajouter de I'eau. Ce processus de detection se poursuit tout au long du
programme. II est auss[ possible que I'on entende de I'eau couler dans le distributeur, ajoutant le detergent a la charge.
Une fois la charge de linge detect6e par la laveuse, la duree de lavage estimee en fonction de la taille de la charge s'affiche.
II est possible que la duree reelle du programme soit prolongee, mais I'affichage continue d'afficher la duree estimee.
