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 fau­cets 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 aempt 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 aempting 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
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 coons/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 coons, 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.
Lile 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
Squeeze a portion of garment in warm or hot sudsy water. If the color bleeds or runs, wash the item separately in cold water.

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
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
Loading the Washer
Load Articles
NOTE: Always add detergent first.
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.
Wash Temperature
Hot
Hot water is the most effective for cleaning, but it is not recom­mended for all fabric types (read labels).
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.

Energy
You can save energy when washing by following a few guidelines:
1. Heating water accounts for the greatest energy expense when washing. Save on heating water by using warm or cold washes.
2. Wash full loads, but do not overload.
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 60°F [16°C], detergents do not dissolve well. This may cause ineffec­tive cleaning, or lint and residue to form.
NOTE: Always follow manufacturer’s care labels.

Digital Display

The two-digit display is used to show the time remaining in a cycle.
If the cycle time is over 99 minutes the control will display either 1H, 2H, etc., and then the additional minutes over one or two hours.
When the control is powered off, the right-most decimal in the dis­play will flash every one to five minutes to indicate that the machine is in Idle Mode.
The display also shows diagnostic codes.
Soak
In the lower right of the display, a single light will flash during any soak portion of the cycle.
The soak light also will flash once every one to five minutes in Idle Mode. Idle Mode is entered if no keypads have been pressed for five minutes after a cycle is finished. Press the Power/Cancel keypad to exit this mode and power the display for cycle/option selection. This light will flash again after five minutes when it re-enters Idle Mode.

Cycles

The following cycle descriptions will help determine which cycle to choose depending on the type of laundry being washed. The descrip­tions are standard seings that may be modified using the Selec- tions and Options.
Use the Prewash seing for extra heavily soiled items. During the PREWASH seing, the washtub will fill with water, agitate for a re­duced period of time and spin out.
Normal Eco
This cycle uses a spray rinse to reduce water consumption. It also uses less hot water. This cycle is recommended for washing every­day coons and linens. If using fabric softener in this cycle, select the Second Rinse option.
Perm Press
Use for permanent press items and synthetics. The final spin is a low spin speed.
Delicate
Wash delicate items usually washed by hand on this cycle. A full tub of water is recommended (even for small loads) to allow the deli­cate items to move freely through the water. More water helps re­duce fabric wear, wrinkling, and provides for a clean wash.
On this cycle, the agitation during the wash portion of the cycle is not constant. The wash will alternate between periods of agitation and then a short soak until advancing to the spin portion of the cy­cle. All spin speeds are a low spin.
Rinse & Spin
Use to quickly rinse items. The rinse is followed by a high spin.
The last cycle that is set, including selections and options, is saved
Spin
even if the control is turned off.
Heavy Duty
Use for sturdy items, like play or work clothes, towels, T-shirts, etc. The wash time selection will depend on the type of fabric and the amount of soil. For the best results when cleaning heavily soiled items, use a higher soil level selection. Lightly soiled items require less wash time.

Maintenance

Maintenance

Cold Weather Care

If the unit is delivered on a cold day (below freezing), or is stored in an unheated room or area during the cold months, do not aempt to operate the washer until it has had a chance to warm up. Water from the previous cycle may remain.

Care of Your Washer

Use only a damp or sudsy cloth for cleaning the control panel. Some cleaning products may harm the finish on the control panel or dam­age the interior. DO NOT use products that contain alcohol on the control panel. Wipe the panel dry after cleaning.
Wipe the washer cabinet as needed. If detergent, bleach or other washing products are spilled on the cabinet, wipe immediately. Some products will cause permanent damage if spilled on the cabi­net.
Do not use scouring pads or abrasive cleansers on control panel or cabinet.
The washtub will need no particular care though it may need rinsing or wiping after some unusual loads have been washed. This also may be necessary if too lile detergent has been used.
Leave the lid open to allow the inside of the washer to dry out after use. This helps prevent musty odors from developing.
The agitator should not be removed except for service. The washtub is designed to be self cleaning.

Replacing Hoses

Vacations and Extended Non-Use

IMPORTANT: To avoid possible property damage due to flooding, turn off the water supply to the washer whenev­er there will be an extended period of non-use.

Preventative Maintenance

Follow these guidelines to ensure the washer operates properly. Call for service if you observe any of the following: water of any amount on the floor, an increase in operating noise or water remaining in the wash basket after a cycle.
Frequency Maintenance Procedure
Monthly 1. Check all hoses and the
drain for leaks.
2. Check the lid switch for proper operation.
3. Check to make sure the washer is level.
4. Clean upper 2-3 inches of wash tub. Fill washer with warm water at highest set­ting. Use an all-purpose cleaner or a steel wool soap pad.
Every six months 1. Clean the filter screens in
the fill hoses.
Hoses and other rubber parts deteriorate after extended use. Ho­ses may develop cracks, blisters or material wear from the temper­ature and constant high pressure they are subjected to.
All hoses should be checked on a monthly basis for any visible signs of deterioration. Any hose showing the signs of deterioration listed above should be replaced immediately. All hoses should be replaced every five years.

Filter Screens

Check the filter screens in the fill hoses for debris or damage every six months. Clean or replace them if necessary.
If the washer is filling with water slower than normal, check the fil- ter screens. Clean or replace them if necessary.
Order filter screen Part No. 803615 from the nearest authorized parts distributor.

Every five years 1. Have a qualified service
technician conduct general preventative maintenance on the washer to ensure it operates properly.
2. Replace the fill hoses.
