USING LESS WATER AND ENERGY
This washer is designed to use less water and energy, and complies with all 2011 energy standards. Wash cycles with controlled temperatures are designed to maintain cleaning performance while using less water and energy compared to older traditional washers. As a result, water levels will be lower, and hot and warm wash temperatures may not be as warm as you are used to.
Traditional washer

Reduced water washer
CHECK YOUR VENT SYSTEM FOR GOOD AIRFLOW
Maintain good airow by:
n
Cleaning your lint screen before each load.
n
Replace plastic or foil vent material with 4" (102 mm) diameter heavy, rigid vent material.
n
Use the shortest length of vent possible.
n
Use no more than four 90° elbows in a vent system; each bend and curve reduces airow.
Good Better
Good airow
Along with heat, dryers require good airow to efciently dry laundry. Proper venting will reduce your drying times and improve your energy savings. See Installation Instructions.
The venting system attached to the dryer plays a big role in good airow.
Service calls caused by improper venting are not covered by the warranty and will be paid by the customer, regardless of who installed the dryer.
n
Remove lint and debris from the exhaust hood.
n
Remove lint from the entire length of the vent system at least every 2 years. When cleaning is complete, be sure to follow the Installation Instructions supplied with your dryer for nal product check.
n
Clear away items from the front the dryer.
4"
(102 mm)
Use Automatic cycles for better fabric care and energy savings
Use the Automatic Dry cycles to provide the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from the dryer. During Automatic Dry cycles, drying air temperature or moisture level are sensed in the load. This sensing occurs throughout the drying cycle and the dryer shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness. The Energy Preferred cycle will provide optimal energy savings.
With Timed Dry, the dryer runs the amount of time set and sometimes results in shrinkage, wrinkling, and static due to over-drying. Use Timed Dry for the occasional damp load that needs a little more drying time or when using the drying rack.

WASHER/DRYER MAINTENANCE
WATER INLET HOSES
Replace inlet hoses after 5 years of use to reduce the risk of hose failure. Periodically 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.
WASHER CARE
Recommendations to Help Keep Your Washer Clean and Performing at its Best
1. Always follow the detergent manufacturer’s instructions
regarding the amount of detergent to use. Never use more than the recommended amount because that may increase the rate at which detergent and soil residue accumulate inside your washer, which in turn may result in undesirable odor.
2. Use warm and hot wash water settings sometimes (not
exclusively cold water washes), because they do a better job of controlling the rate at which soils and detergent accumulate.
3. Always leave the washer lid open between uses to help dry
out the washer and prevent the buildup of odor-causing residue.
Cleaning Your Top Loading Washer
Read these instructions completely before beginning the routine cleaning processes recommended below. This Washer Maintenance Procedure should be performed, at a minimum, once per month or every 30 wash cycles, whichever occurs sooner, to control the rate at which soils and detergent may otherwise accumulate in your washer. To keep washer interior odor-free, follow this recommended monthly cleaning procedure:
affresh® Washer Cleaner Cycle Procedure (Recommended for Best Performance):
a. Open the washer lid and remove any clothing or items. b. Place an affesh® Washer Cleaner tablet in the bottom of
the washer basket.
c. Do not add any detergent or other chemical to the
washer when following this procedure.
d. Close the washer lid. e. Select Normal Heavy cycle, Hot Temperature, and Large
Load Size.
f. Pull out the Cycle knob. Water will pour into washer
for a moment and then pause; the lid will lock and the cycle will continue.
NOTE: For best results, do not interrupt cycle. If cycle must be interrupted, push in the Cycle knob.
WASHER CARE (cont.)
Chlorine Bleach Procedure (Alternative):
a. Open the washer lid and remove any clothing
or items.
b. Add 1 cup (236 mL) of liquid chlorine bleach
to the bleach compartment.
NOTE: Use of more liquid chlorine bleach than is
recommended above could cause washer damage over time.
c. Do not add any detergent or other chemical to the
washer when following this procedure.
d. Close the washer lid. e. Select Normal Heavy cycle, Hot Temperature, and
Large Load Size.
f. Pull out the Cycle knob. Water will pour into washer
for a moment and then pause; the lid will lock and the cycle will continue.
NOTE: For best results, do not interrupt cycle. If cycle must be interrupted, push in the Cycle knob.
Cleaning the liquid fabric softener dispenser
1. Remove dispenser by grasping top with both hands and
squeezing, while pushing upward with thumbs.
2. Rinse dispenser under warm water, then replace it.
NOTE: To avoid damage to the washer or clothing,
do not wash clothes with the liquid fabric softener dispenser removed.
Cleaning the bleach dispenser
Wipe the inside of the bleach dispenser with a clean, damp cloth.
Cleaning the Outside of the Washer
Use a soft, damp cloth or sponge to wipe away any spills. Use only mild soaps or cleaners when cleaning external washer surfaces.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damaging the washer’s nish, do not use abrasive products.
14
CLEANING THE WASHER/DRYER LOCATION
Keep washer/dryer area clear and free from items that would block the airow for proper washer/dryer operation. This includes clearing piles of laundry in front of the washer/ dryer.
CLEANING THE DRYER INTERIOR
To clean dryer drum
1. Apply a liquid, nonammable household cleaner to the
stained area of the drum and rub with a soft cloth until stain is removed.
2. Wipe drum thoroughly with a damp cloth.
3. Tumble a load of clean cloths or towels to dry the drum.
NOTE: Garments that contain loose dyes, such as denim
blue jeans or brightly colored cotton items, may discolor the dryer interior. These stains are not harmful to your dryer and will not stain future loads of clothes. Dry these items inside out to avoid drum staining.
REMOVING ACCUMULATED LINT
CLEANING THE LINT SCREEN
Every load cleaning
The lint screen is located in the door opening of the dryer. A screen blocked by lint can increase drying time.
To clean:
1. Pull the lint screen straight up. Roll lint off the screen
with your ngers. Do not rinse or wash screen to remove lint. Wet lint is hard to remove.
2. Push the lint screen rmly back into place. IMPORTANT:
n
Do not run the dryer with the lint screen loose, damaged, blocked, or missing. Doing so can cause overheating and damage to both the dryer and fabrics.
n
If lint falls off the screen into the dryer during removal, check the exhaust hood and remove the lint. See “Venting Requirements.”
As needed cleaning
Laundry detergent and fabric softener residue can build up on the lint screen. This buildup can cause longer drying times for your clothes, or cause the dryer to stop before your load is completely dry. The screen is probably clogged if lint falls off while the screen is in the dryer.
Clean the lint screen with a nylon brush every 6 months, or more frequently, if it becomes clogged due to a residue buildup.
To wash:
1. Roll lint off the screen with your ngers.
2. Wet both sides of lint screen with hot water.
3. Wet a nylon brush with hot water and liquid detergent.
Scrub lint screen with the brush to remove residue buildup.
From Inside the Dryer Cabinet
Lint should be removed every 2 years, or more often, depending on dryer usage. Cleaning should be done by a qualied servicer.
From the Exhaust Vent
Lint should be removed every 2 years, or more often, depending on dryer usage.
4. Rinse screen with hot water.
5. Thoroughly dry lint screen with a clean towel.
Reinstall screen in dryer.
15
CHANGING THE DRUM LIGHT (on some models)
1. Unplug dryer or disconnect power.
2. Open the dryer door. Locate the light bulb cover on the
back wall of the dryer. Using a Phillips-head screwdriver, remove the screw located in the lower right-hand corner of the cover. Remove the cover.
