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 alert 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 killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't

follow instructions.

All 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.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injuryto 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, 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 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.

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 itwill 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.

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.

WHAT'S NEW UNDER THE LID?

Cleaaiag with Less _ter

oo o_

Traditional agitator-style

washer

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

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

Washer with low-water

washplate wash system

/ \

As the washer dampens and moves the load, the level of the

clothes will settle in the basket. This is normal, and does not indicate that more clothes should be added.

IMPORTANT: You will not see a washer basket full of water as with your past agitator-style washer.

Choosiag 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 regular non-HE detergent. Using regular detergent will likely result in longer cycle times and

reduced rinsing performance. It may also 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.

When loading the washer with dirty laundry, fill it evenly around the basket wall.

Automatic Load Size Sensing

Once you start the cycle, the lid will lock, and the washer will

begin the sensing process to determine the correct water level for the load. This may take several minutes before water is added. You will find a step-by-step description in the "Cycle Status Lights" section.

You will hear the motor turn the basket in short pulses to thoroughly wet the load. This low-water wash method uses

less water and energy compared to a traditional agitator-style washer.

Use only High Efficiency (HE) detergent.

Concentrated Cleaniag

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.

NormM 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 will be different kinds of humming and whirring sounds as the washplate moves the load. And sometimes, you may hear

nothing at all, as the washer determines the correct water level for your load or allows time for clothes to soak.

CONTROL P EL FEATURES

POWER

Not all features and cycles are available on all models.

POWER BUTTON

Press to turn the washer ON. Pressing once while the washer is on will cancel the current cycle, pressing twice will turn the washer OFR

WASH CYCLE KNOB Turn the Wash Cycle knob to select a cycle for your laundry

load. See "Cycle Guide" for detailed descriptions of cycles.

TIME/STATUS DISPLAY The Estimated Time Remaining display shows the time required for the cycle to complete. Factors such as load size and water pressure may affect the time shown in the display.

Overloading, unbalanced loads, or excessive suds may cause the washer to adjust the cycle time, as well.

The Delay Wash indicator will light if you have set a delay start to the cycle.

The Add a Garment indicator will let you know when it is still possible to add items to the load.

When the cycle is complete, the DONE indicator will light until the lid is opened.

ECO MONITOR

Your washer is specially designed to conserve energy and water. Each cycle, along with any selected options, will result in different energy and water usage. To use the Eco

Monitor, choose the best cycle for the load being washed, then adjust temperature and spin speed options to improve

the energy usage within that cycle. START/PAUSE BUTTON

Press to start the selected cycle; press again to pause a cycle.

CYCLE SIGNAL BUTTON Use this option to adjust volume of the signal that sounds at

end of cycle. A louder signal is helpful in removing items as soon as cycle is complete.

@ LID LOCK INDICATOR

This light indicates that the lid is locked and cannot be opened. If you need to open the lid, press START/PAUSE.

The lid will unlock once the washer movement has stopped. This may take several minutes if the load was spinning at

high speed. Press START/PAUSE again to restart the cycle.

Press this button to set the Fabric Softener dispenser to automatically add liquid fabric softener to the load at the correct time.

CYCLE OPTIONS Whenyou select a cycle, its default settings will light up.

SOIL LEVEL Soil level (wash time) is preset for each wash cycle.

As you press the Soil Level pad, the cycle time (minutes) will increase or decrease inthe Estimated Time Remaining

display and a different wash time will appear. For most loads, use the soil level that is preset with the

cycle you have chosen. For heavily soiled and sturdy fabrics, press SOIL LEVEL to select more wash time, if

needed. For lightly soiled and delicate fabrics, press Soil Level to select less wash time, if needed. A lower

soil level setting will help reduce tangling and wrinkling. SPIN SPEED

This washer automatically selects the spin speed based on the cycle selected. The preset speeds can be

changed. Not all spin speeds are available with all cycles.

• Faster spin speeds mean shorter dry times, but may increase wrinkling in your load.

• Slower spin speeds mean less wrinkling, but will leave

your load more damp.

WASH/RINSE TEMP Temperature Control 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.

• Warm and hot water may be cooler than what your previous washer provided.

• Even for cold wash settings, some warm water may be added to the washer to maintain a minimum

temperature.

You may also add or remove options for each cycle. Note that not all options can be used with all cycles,

and some are preset to work with certain cycles.

DEEP CLEAN This option provides enhanced cleaning action for tough

stains. It will add additional time to the cycle. Deep Clean should be started on a dry load only and must be selected

before the washer has started to fill. EXTRA RINSE

This option can be used to automatically add a second rinse to most cycles.

ECOBOOST The EcoBoost option allows you to increase your energy

savings on your wash cycles. When this option is used, the wash cycle will use cooler wash water than the

selected cycle and may increase the spin speed for faster drying.

DISPENSERS

Cycle Details:

Use this cycle to wash small loads of 2-3 lightly soiled garments that are needed in a hurry. This cycle combines a fast agitation, a shortened wash time, and a high-speed spin to shorten drying times.

Use this cycle for machine washable delicate garments. This cycle uses

intermittent wash action with cool water and slow spin to gently care for fine

washables and avoid shrinkage. Place small items in mesh bags before washing.

Use this cycle to wash bed sheets. This cycle uses extra water and a special wash action to reduce tangling. On some models, soil level defaults to Medium.

This cycle defaults to a warm wash and medium spin speed. Hotter temperatures

help remove soils and odors; faster spin speeds will reduce drying times.

On some models, soil level defaults to Medium.

Use this cycle for lightly soiled office wear. The cycle uses a warm wash, a cooldown, and medium spin speeds for better wrinkle performance.

Use this cycle to clean normally soiled cottons and mixed fabric loads. Default

settings can be adjusted as needed. On some models, soil level defaults to

Medium. Cold water temperatures are used

to maintain dark dyes. Normal wash action and medium wash time is preset. Settings can be adjusted as needed.

On some models, soil level defaults to Medium.

This cycle is designed for oversized items that do not easily absorb water, such as comforters, pillows, and poly- filled jackets. The cycle uses an initial soak to thoroughly saturate the item(s).

Use this cycle for heavily soiled or sturdy cotton items. This cycle combines

high-speed wash action, longer wash time, and extra high-speed spin to shorten

drying times. Adjust temperature settings as needed.

USING YOUR WASHER

Fire Hazard

Never place items in the washer that are dampened with gasoline or other flammable

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.

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.

• Empty pockets. Loose change, buttons, or any small object can pass under the impeller and become trapped, causing

unexpected sounds.

• Sort items by recommended cycle, water temperature, and colorfastness.

• Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled.

• Separate delicate items from sturdy fabrics.

• Do not dry garments if stains remain after washing; heat can set stains into fabric.

• Treat stains promptly.

• Close zippers, fasten hooks, tie strings and sashes. Remove non-washable trim and ornaments.

• Mend rips and tears to avoid further damage to items during washing.

Helpful Tips:

• When washing water-proof or water-resistant items, load evenly. See "Cycle Guide" for tips and more information on using the Bulky Items cycle.

• Use mesh bags to help prevent tangling when washing delicate or small items.

• Turn knits inside out to avoid pilling. Separate lint-takers from lint-givers. Synthetics, knits, and corduroy fabrics will pick up lint from towels, rugs, and chenille fabrics.

NOTE: Always read and follow fabric care labels instructions to avoid damage to your garments.

Load garments in loose heaps evenly around basket wall. Try mixing different

sized items to reduce tangling. IMPORTANT." Items need to move freely

for best cleaning and to reduce wrinkling and tangling.

Using Laundry Product Dispensers

Add HE detergent to dispenser

Detergent dispenser

Add a measured amount of HE detergent into detergent dispenser.

IMPORTANT: Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package will be marked "HE" or "High Efficiency." Low-water washing creates excessive sudsing with a regular non-HE detergent. Using regular detergent will likely result in longer cycle times and reduced rinsing performance. It may also 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.

NOTE: If using an Oxi laundry boost product, add to the detergent dispenser.

HELPFUL TIP: See "Washer Maintenance" for information on recommended method of cleaning washer dispensers.

to dispenser

Pour a measured amount of liquid fabric softener into dispenser; always

follow manufacturer's directions for correct amount of fabric softener based on your load size. Then select

Fabric Softener option. IMPORTANT: Fabric Softener option must be selected

to ensure proper distribution at correct time in cycle. Do not overfill or dilute. Overfilling dispenser will cause fabric softener to immediately dispense into washer.
