Important Safety Instructions
Save These Instructions
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury
or death to persons when using your washer, follow
these basic precautions:
W023
• Read all instructions before using the washer.
• Install the washer according to the INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. Refer to the EARTH/GROUND INSTRUCTIONS in the INSTALLATION manual for the proper earth/ground connection of
the washer. All connections for water, drain, electrical power and
earth/ground must comply with local codes and be made by licensed personnel when required. Do not do it yourself.
• Do not install or store the washer where it will be exposed to
water and/or weather.
• Do not add the following substances or textiles containing
traces of the following substances to the wash water: gasoline,
kerosene, waxes, cooking oils, vegetable oils, machine oils, drycleaning solvents, flammable chemicals, thinners or other flam-
mable or explosive substances. These substances give off va-
pors that could ignite, explode or cause the fabric to catch on
fire by itself.
• Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a
hot water system that has not been used for two 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 taps
and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will
release any accumulated hydrogen gas. THE GAS IS FLAMMABLE, DO NOT SMOKE OR USE AN OPEN FLAME DURING THIS
TIME.
• To reduce the risk of an electric shock or fire, DO NOT use an extension cord or an adapter to connect the washer to the electrical power source.
• Do not allow children to play on or in the washer. Close supervision of children is necessary when the washer is used near children. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities,
or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance
by a person responsible for their safety. This is a safety rule for
all appliances.
• Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children
without supervision.
• Children less than three years should be kept away unless continuously supervised.

Safety Information
• Do not reach into the washer if the washtub or agitator, if applicable, is moving.
• Never operate the washer with any guards, panels and/or parts
removed or broken. DO NOT tamper with the controls or bypass
any safety devices.
• Use your washer only for its intended purpose, washing clothes.
Always follow the fabric care instructions supplied by the garment manufacturer.
• Always read and follow manufacturer’s instructions on packages of laundry and cleaning aids. To reduce the risk of poisoning or chemical burns, keep them out of the reach of children at
all times (preferably in a locked cabinet). Heed all warnings or
precautions.
• Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener
or product.
• Lid MUST BE CLOSED any time the washer is to agitate or spin.
DO NOT bypass the lid switch to permit the washer to agitate
or spin with the lid open. A brake will stop the washtub within
seconds if the lid is opened during spinning. If the washtub does
not stop when the lid is opened, remove the washer from use
and call the service person.
• Be sure water connections have a shut-off valve and that fill
hose connections are tight. CLOSE the shut-off valves at the
end of each wash day.
• Keep your washer in good condition. Bumping or dropping the
washer can damage safety features. If this occurs, have your
washer checked by a qualified service person.
• Do not repair or replace any part of the washer, or aempt any
servicing unless specifically recommended in the user-maintenance instructions or in published user-repair instructions that
you understand and have the skills to carry out. ALWAYS disconnect the washer from electrical supply before aempting
any service.
• Disconnect the power cord by grasping the plug, not the cord. If
the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order
to avoid a hazard.
• Before the washer is removed from service or discarded, remove
the lid or door to the washing compartment.
• Failure to install, maintain, and/or operate this washer according to the manufacturer’s instructions may result in conditions
which can produce bodily injury and/or property damage.
NOTE: The WARNING and IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS appearing in this manual are not meant to
cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. Observe and be aware of other labels and precautions that are located on the machine. They are intended
to provide instruction for safe use of the machine. Common sense, caution and care must be exercised when installing, maintaining, or operating the washer.
Always contact your dealer, distributor, service agent or the manufacturer about any problems or conditions you do not understand.

Operation
Before Washing
Prepare Wash Load
Empty Pockets and Cuffs
Make sure all pockets are empty and turn them inside out. One bobby pin, metal or plastic toy, nail or sharp object in a load can catch
laundry, cause tears and plug the pump. Facial tissue left in a pocket will produce extreme “lint”. A crayon or lipstick in a wash load may
cause stains that cannot be removed. Roll down cuffs and shake
out grass, sand and gravel.
Strings on clothing such as hooded sweatshirts may get caught in
or around the agitator. Remove the strings if possible or tie them
together.
Mend Rips and Tears
Lile holes can become bigger in the washer. Mend holes and tears
before placing garments in the washer.
Close Zipper and Fasten Hooks
These can catch on garments in a wash load and tear them. Tie
belts and sashes so they won’t wind around clothes.
Check For Colorfastness
Sort Items
Different items use different wash cycles and temperatures. Always follow the manufacturer’s care label.
Proper sorting is easy if you follow a few guidelines:
1. Sort by Color: Separate items into loads of whites, darks, lights
and non-colorfast.
2. Sort by Fabric and Construction: Separate items into loads of
coons/linens, permanent press, synthetics/blends/poly knits,
and delicates.
3. Sort by Temperature: Separate items into loads that can be
washed in cold, warm or hot water.
4. Sort by Type and Amount of Soil: Heavily soiled clothes will need
extra treatment. Lightly soiled clothes can become dingy if
washed with heavily soiled items.
5. Sort Lint “Shedders” From Lint “Receivers”: Some fabrics attract lint and should not be washed with lint-shedding loads.
Lint shedders are coons, terry towels, chenille bedspreads,
rugs and clothes that have been heavily bleached. Lint receivers
are synthetics, permanent or durable press, knits (including
socks), corduroy, and other smooth fabrics.
Pretreat
Pretreat shirt collars and cuffs with a pretreat product or liquid
detergent when placing them in the washer. Before washing, treat
special stains individually.
WARNING
Squeeze a portion of garment in warm or hot sudsy water. If the
color bleeds or runs, wash the item separately in cold water.

DO NOT COPY or TRANSMIT
Do not wash or dry items soiled with vegetable or
cooking oils. Some oils may remain after washing and
may cause the fabric to catch on fire by itself.

Operation
• Load items by the amount of space they take up, not by their
weight. Mix large and small items in a load to get the best washing results.
• Drop items loosely into the washtub. The bulk of the clothes
rather than the weight will determine load size. Do not pack
items in or wrap them around the agitator. Overloading can
cause poor cleaning, excessive wrinkling and tears.
• Items should move freely through the wash water for best
cleaning results. Items should rollover, sink and then reappear.
• When washing very large items, do not fill washtub as full as
with other loads.
Load Size (Water Level)
• The water level in your washer should fit the size of your wash
load. Small loads will use lower water levels. There must be
enough water in the washtub to allow items to move and turn
over freely.
Wrong Water Level for Size of Load
IMPORTANT: If in doubt, always use a larger load size.
Most average loads will require the Large Load Size setting. Failure to have the correct volume of water relative
to the load may decrease washer performance.
Load Sizes
Small 1-2 permanent press dress
shirts or 2 pillow cases or 1
lightweight dress or similar size
load
Medium 3-4 permanent press dress
shirts or 1 twin sheet, 1 pillow
case or 1-2 lightweight dresses
Large 6-7 permanent press shirts or
2 twin sheets, 2 pillow cases or
8 standard bath towels, 6
wash cloths
Extra Large 8-9 shirts, 5 pair polyester
pants or 2 queen size sheets, 4
pillow cases, 2 nightgowns, 1
pair men’s pajamas or 1 queen
size bedspread
Wash Temperature
Hot
Hot water is the most effective for cleaning, but it is not recommended for all fabric types (read labels).
Right Water Level for Size of Load
• Overloading the washtub can result in poor washing and rinsing.
• Overloading may also cause wrinkling and tearing of items as
well as increased wear to the washer’s motor.
Warm
The Warm Wash is useful for providing a thorough cleaning on light
and moderately soiled clothing without damaging fabric or adding
to color fading. Warm water also reduces wrinkling. Use with noncolorfast or dark colors, permanent press, silks, woolens, nylon, and
acrylic.
Cool
The Cool Wash temperature is useful for washing permanent press
fabrics.
Cold
The Cold Wash is ideal for delicate items. Although its cleaning abilities are not as great as with hot or warm water, it is useful for colors that bleed easily and for sensitive fabrics.
All rinses use cold water. It is the most beneficial for fabrics. Cold
rinses reduce wrinkling and color fading. In addition, cold rinses will
save money and energy.
NOTE: In wash temperatures colder than 16°C [60°F],
detergents do not dissolve well. This may cause ineffective cleaning, or lint and residue to form.
NOTE: Always follow manufacturer’s care labels.
