WASHER SAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all
safety messages.

This is the safety aRert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.
All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or

"WARNING." These words mean:

You can be MHed or seriousJy injured if you don't
irnmediateUy follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriousUy injured if you don't
follow instructions.

Aii safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you
what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

UMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electdc 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, other flammable, or explosive

substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or
explode.

[] Do not add gasoline, dryocleaning 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.

State of California Proposition 65 Warnings:
WARNING: This product contains one or more chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer.

WARNING: This product contains one or more chemicals known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other
reproductive harm.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

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 or lid.

[] Do not reach into the washer if the drum, tub or agitator is

moving.

[] 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 this manual or in

published user-repair instructions that you understand and
have the skills to carry out.

[] See "Electrical Requirements" located in the installation

instructions for grounding instructions.

WHAT'S NEW UNDER THE LiD?

Cleaning with Less Water

Traditionalagitator-style

washer

The most striking difference in your new washer is the low=water
washplate wash system. The washer automaticaiiy adjusts the

water level to the load size--no water level selector is needed.

Washer with low-water

washplate wash system

Automatic Load Size Sensing

Once you start the cycle, the lid wiii lock, and the washer wiil
begin the sensing process to determine the correct water level for

the load. This may take severaI minutes before water is added. You
wiii find a step=by=step description in the "Cycle Status Lights"
section.

You wiii hear the motor turn the basket in short puises to thoroughly
wet the load. This low=water wash method uses iess water and

energy compared to a traditionaI agitator=style washer.

Choosing the Right Detergent

Use oniy High Efficiency detergents. The package wifl be
marked "H E" or "High Efficiency_' Low=water washing creates
excessive sudsing with a reguiar non=HE detergent. Using regular
detergent wiii iikeiy result in longer cycle times and reduced
rinsing performance. It may aiso result in component failures and
noticeable mold or mildew. HE detergents are made to produce
the right amount of suds for the best performance. Follow the
manufacturer's instructions to determine the amount of detergent

to use.

For best performance, it is recommended to load garments in loose
heaps evenly around the washpJate.

As the washer dampens and moves the load, the level of the
garments will settle in the basket. This is normal, and does not
indicate that more garments should be added.

IMPORTANT: You wiii not see a washer basket furl of water as
with your past agitator=style washer. It is normal for some of the

load to be above the water line.

Use only High Efficiency (HE) detergent,

Concentrated Cleaning

Low=water cleaning means concentrated cleaning. Rather than
diluting detergent as done in an agitator=style washer, this washer
delivers the detergent directly to the soils.

Normal Sounds You Can Expect

At different stages of the wash cycle, you may hear sounds and
noises that are different from those of your previous washer. For
example, you may hear a clicking and hum at the beginning of the
cycle, as the lid lock goes through a self=test. There wiii be different
kinds of humming and whirring sounds as the washplate moves the
load. And sometimes, you may hear nothing at ail, as the washer
determines the correct water level for your load or ailows time for

clothes to soak.

CONTROL PANEL AND FEATURES

O SOiL LEVEL

Select the most suitable setting for your load. For heavily soiled
and sturdy fabrics, select Extra Heavy Soil Level for more wash
time, if needed. For lightly soiled and delicate fabrics, select
Light Soil Level for less wash time, if needed. Lighter soil level
setting will help reduce tangling and wrinkling.

WASH TEMP

Wash Temp senses and maintains uniform water temperatures
by regulating incoming hot and cold water.

Select a wash temperature based on the type of fabric and soils
being washed. For best results and following the garment label

instructions, use the warmest wash water safe for your fabric.

• On some models and cycles, warm and hot water may be
cooler than your previous washer.

• Even in a cold and cool water wash, some warm water may
be added to the washer to maintain a minimum temperature.

WASH CYCLE KNOB

Use the Wash Cycle knob to select available cycles on your
washer. Turn the knob to select a cycle for your laundry load.
See "Cycle Guide" for detailed descriptions.

@ CYCLE OPTIONS

The following options may be added to most cycles.

EXTRA RINSE
This option can be used to automatically add a second

rinse to most cycles.
TIMED DISPENSERS

FABRIC SOF[ENER
This option must be selected if using fabric softener.

Fabric softener will be dispensed in the last rinse of

the Extra Rinse cycle, if selected.
OXl

This washer is designed to dispense laundry boosters
such as oxygenated stain treaters and color=safe

bleach at the right time in the cycle for best cleaning
performance, Do not use laundry boosters and chlorine

bleach in the same cycle.

NOTE: If the washer is spinning, it may take several minutes
to unlock the lid. Press and hold 3 sec to cancel a cycle.

CYCLE STATUS LIGHTS

The Cycle Status Lights show the progress of a cycle. At each
stage of the process, you may notice sounds or pauses that are

different from traditional washers.

SENSING

sensing wash rinse spin done lidbeked

When the START/Pause/Unlock button is pressed, the
washer will first perform a self=test on the lid lock mechanism.

You will hear a click, the basket will make a slight turn, and
the lid will unlock briefly before locking again.

Once the lid has locked the second time, the washer will use
short, slow spins to estimate the load size. These sensing
spins may take 2 to 3 minutes before water is added to the

load and you may hear the hum of these spins. If the sensing
light is on, then washer is working properly. You will hear the

motor turn the basket in short pulses to thoroughly wet the
load. The washer will then move the load briefly, pause to

allow water to soak in to the load, and resume adding water.
This process may repeat until the correct amount of water

has been added for the load. You may also hear water flowing
through the dispenser, adding detergent to the load.

NOTE: Avoid opening lid during sensing. The sensing
process will start over when the washer is restarted. The

sensing light may also come on during the Wash portion of
the cycle. This is normal.

WASH

WASH ER CARE

Recommendations to Help Keep Your Washer
Clean and Performing at its Best

1. Always use High Efficiency (HE) detergents and follow the
HE detergent manufacturer's instructions regarding the

amount of HE detergent to use. Never use more than the
recommended amount because that may increase the rate

at which detergent and soil residue accumulate inside your
washer, which in turn may result in undesirable odor.

2. Use warm and hot wash water settings sometimes (not
exclusively cold water washes), because they do a better
job of controlling the rate at which soils and detergent

accumulate.

3. Always leave the washer lid open between uses to help dry
out the washer and prevent the buildup of odor=causing

residue.
