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 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, 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. Ifthe 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 intothe 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.

WHAT'S NEW UNDER THE LID?

Cleaaiag with Less 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. 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.

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.

Load garments in loose heaps evenly around the washplate. Do not load garments directly over the center of the washplate; when loaded, the center of the washplate should be visible.

Low-water 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.

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.

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 will not see a washer basket full of water as with your past agitator-style washer. It is normal for some of

the load to be above the water line.

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 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

Not all features and cycles are available on all models.

O 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 and hold 3 seconds 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.

DISPENSER SELECTOR

Press this button to set the dispensers for Oxi, Fabric

Softener, or both so that the selected laundry product

is added to the load at the correct time.

CYCLE SETTINGS AND OPTIONS

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 in the 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. For cold water with no warm water

added, select tap cold.

You may also add or remove options for each cycle. 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.

High Efficiency "HE" detergent dispenser

Add liquid or powdered HE detergent product to this

dispenser for your main wash cycle.

_) LED BASKET LIGHT (on some models}

A basket light illuminates the basket making loading and unloading easier. The light comes on when the lid is opened,

and turns off automatically about 30 seconds after the lid is closed. If the lid is left open, the basket light will turn off on

its own after a few minutes.

Use only High Efficiency (HE)detergent.

Liquid chlorine bleach / Timed Oxi dispenser Liquid chlorine bleach: This dispenser holds up to

3/4 cup (180 mL) liquid chlorine bleach. The bleach will be automatically diluted and dispensed at the optimum time during the wash cycle. This dispenser cannot dilute

powdered bleach.

Oxi: This dispenser holds up to 3/4 cup (180 mL) ©xi

booster or other laundry booster, such as powdered or liquid color-safe bleach. Laundry boosters are automatically dispensed at the proper time during the

wash cycle. Be sure to select Timed Oxi from the options to assure proper dispensing.

NOTE: Fill dispenser with only bleach OR oxi. Do not mix products.

Liquid fabric softener dispenser Pour measured liquid fabric softener into the liquid fabric

softener dispenser, if desired. It will dispense automatically at the optimum time when the Fabric Softener option is selected.

• Use only liquid fabric softener in this dispenser.

CYCLE GUIDE

Settings and options shown in bold are default settings for that cycle. For best fabric care, choose the cycle that best fits the load being washed. If using the Eco Monitor, adjust the temperature and spin speed within that cycle to improve energy usage. Not all cycles and options are available on all models.

CycleDeta,s:

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.

This cycle adds liquid chlorine bleach to the load at the proper time for improved whitening of soiled white fabrics.

Uses more water to flush out allergens such as dust mites and pet dander from

normally-soiled items. This cycle removes more than 95% of allergens.

This cycle uses a high-speed spin. For some fabrics, you may wish to set the spin speed to a lower setting.

To select, choose Rinse/Drain & Spin and turn off Extra Rinse. Use this cycle to spin excess water out of a load. This cycle drains the water and spins at a high speed. Spin speed is adjustable.

Adjustable soak time to loosen heavy soils. At the end of the cycle, the washer will drain but not spin, and a tone will sound. To set a follow-up cycle, add additional detergent and select a cycle based on fabric type.

Use this cycle every 30 washes to keep the insideof your washer fresh and clean. This cycle uses a higher water level. Use

with AFFRESH®washer cleaner tablet or liquid chlorine bleach to thoroughly

clean the inside of your washer. This cycle should not be interrupted. See "Cleaning

Your Washer." IMPORTANT: Do not place garments or

other items in the washer during the Clean Washer with AFFRESHTM cycle. Use this cycle with an empty wash tub.
