WASHER SAFETY
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 sol-
vents, 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 lid.
• Do not reach into the washer if the tub or
agitator is moving.
• Do not install or store the washer where it
will 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 Use and Care Guide or in published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.
• See Installation Instructions for grounding
requirements.
You will be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow instructions.
Your safety and the safety of others is 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 hazards that can kill or hurt you and others. All safety messages will be preceded by the safety alert symbol and the word “DANGER” or
“WARNING.” These words mean:
wDANGER
wWARNING
All safety messages will identify the hazard, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

•
The washer pauses briefly throughout each cycle. These pauses are normal. Refer to “Understanding normal washer sounds” to learn more about the sounds you may hear during a wash cycle.
•
Refer to “Understanding what happens in each cycle” later in this section to learn what happens during a wash cycle.
NOTE: This manual covers several different mod­els. The washer you purchased may not have all of the cycles described.

USING YOUR WASHER

ADDING LIQUID FABRIC SOFTENER

•
Too much fabric softener can make some items (diapers and towels) nonabsorbent. If this happens, use less fabric softener or do not use it every time.
•
Always dilute fabric softener with 1⁄2 to 1 cup (125 to 250 mL) warm water. Undiluted fabric softener can stain fabrics.
•
Add diluted fabric softener only in the final rinse.
•
Fabric softener should not be mixed with other laundry products because greasy stains may form. If stains form, remove them by wetting the stain and rubbing with liquid detergent or a bar of soap. Rewash the stained item.

ADDING LIQUID CHLORINE BLEACH

Always measure liquid chlorine bleach. Do not guess. Never use more than 1 cup (250 mL) for a full load. Follow manufacturer’s directions for safe use. Use a cup with a pouring spout to avoid spilling.
1. Let the washer fill and begin agitating
the load.
2. Add bleach to the wash cycle so it can be
removed in the rinse cycle. Pour bleach around the agitator, not directly on the load.
•
Follow directions on care labels. Do not use chlorine bleach on wool, silk, spandex, acetates, or some flame-retardant fabrics.
•
When soaking with chlorine bleach, add detergent to soak water.
NOTE: Undiluted bleach will damage any fabric it touches. The damage appears as rips, holes, tears, or color loss and may not show up until several washings later.

RINSE/DRAIN AND SPIN

Rinse and Spin feature
When using extra detergent for heavily soiled clothes, or washing special-care items, you may find an extra rinse and spin is needed.
•
For an additional rinse and spin, push in the
Cycle Control knob and turn it clockwise to any of the Rinse settings. The washer fills to the selected load size, agitates, drains, and spins.
Drain and Spin feature
A drain and spin may help shorten drying times for some heavy fabrics or special-care items by removing excess water.
•
For a drain and spin, push in the Cycle Control
knob and turn it clockwise to any of the Spin settings. Then pull out the Cycle Control knob. The washer drains, then spins.

USING YOUR WASHER

UNDERSTANDING NORMAL WASHER SOUNDS

During drain
If water is drained quickly from your washer (depending on your installation), you may hear air being pulled through the pump during the end of draining.
After drain and before spin
When the cycle changes from draining to spinning, you may hear gears engaging.
Your new washer may make sounds your old one didn’t. Because the sounds may be unfamiliar, you may be concerned about them. Don’t be; most of them are normal.
The following describes some of the sounds you may hear and what causes them.
Your washer has a self-cleaning lint filter at the bot­tom of the basket. Wash and rinse water flow over the filter during agitation, separating the lint from the water. The lint spins out of the system during the spin part of the cycle.
If your washer drains into a tub, remove any lint collected in the tub or strainer.

USING YOUR WASHER

UNDERSTANDING WHAT HAPPENS IN EACH CYCLE

When the Cycle Control knob is set to a number and pulled out, the washer fills (to the selected water level) before agitation and timing start. The washer begins agitating immediately after filling; agitation occurs with the washer lid up or down.
After agitation starts, the Cycle Control knob turns clockwise until it points to an Off area and the cycle ends.
NOTE: The washer pauses briefly throughout each cycle. These pauses are normal for washer operation.

WINTER STORAGE, MOVING, VACATION CARE

CARING FOR YOUR WASHER

CLEANING YOUR WASHER
Cleaning the exterior
Use a soft, damp cloth or sponge to wipe up any
spills such as detergent or bleach. Occasionally wipe the outside of your washer to keep it looking new.
Cleaning the interior
Clean your washer interior by mixing 1 cup (250 mL) of chlorine bleach and 2 cups (500 mL) of detergent. Pour this into your washer and run it through a complete cycle using hot water. Repeat this process if necessary.
NOTE: Remove any hard water deposits using only cleaners labeled as washer safe.
Install and store your washer where it will not freeze. Because some water may stay in the hoses, freezing can damage your washer. If storing or moving your washer during freezing weather, winterize it.
To winterize washer:
1. Shut off both water faucets.
2. Disconnect and drain water inlet hoses.
3. Put 1 quart (1 L) of R.V.-type antifreeze in the
basket.
4. Run washer on a drain and spin setting (see the
“Drain and spin feature” section) for about 30 seconds to mix the antifreeze and water.
5. Unplug washer or disconnect power.
To use washer again:
1. Flush water pipes and hoses.
2. Reconnect water inlet hoses.
3. Turn on both water faucets.
4. Plug in washer or reconnect power.
5. Run the washer through a complete cycle with
1 cup (250 mL) of detergent to clean out anti­freeze.
Non-use or vacation care:
Operate your washer only when you are at home. If you will be on vacation or not using your washer for an extended period of time, you should:
•
Unplug the power supply cord or turn off electrical power to the washer.
•
Turn off the water supply to the washer. This helps avoid accidental flooding (due to a water pressure surge) while you are away.
INLET HOSES
Replace inlet hoses after 5 years of use to reduce the risk of hose failure. Inspect and replace inlet hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts, wear, or leaks are found.
When replacing your inlet hoses, mark the date of replacement on the label with a permanent marker.
