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" for grounding instructions.

WHAT'S NEW UNDER THE LID?
Cleaning with Less _ter
! ]
Traditional agitator-style
washing machine
The most striking difference in your new washer is the
low-water impeller wash system. The washer automatically
adjusts the water level to the load size--no water level selector
is needed.
l
Impeller
Washer with low-water
impeller wash system
The impeller moves the load through the water while using
less water and energy compared to a traditional 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. For best results, fill no higher than the
recommended maximum load height. 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.
Water is added to the load while the basket turns slowly. As the
washer dampens and moves the load, the level of 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
like with your past agitator-style washer.
Use only High Efficiency (HE) detergent.
H2Low _'_Concentrated Cleaniag
The H2Low 'Mlow-water cleaning system 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 that
are different from those of your previous washer. For example,
you may hear a clicking 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 impeller 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.

CYCLE SETTINGS AND OPTIONS
O
When you 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 will 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. For cold water with no warm water
added, select tap cold.

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 avoid 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.
Always read and follow fabric care labels instructions to
avoid damage to your garments.
Load garments in loose heaps evenly around basket wall.
For best results, do not load higher than the recommended
maximum load height. Try mixing different sized items to
reduce tangling.
IMPORTANT: Do not overload washer. Items need to move
freely. Overloading can lead to poor cleaning performance, and
may increase wrinkling and tangling.
