WHAT’S NEW UNDER THE LID?

Cleaning with Less Water

Washplate

Traditional agitator-style	Low-water washer
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.

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.

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 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.

Choosing 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 Cleaning

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.

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.

Not all features and cycles are available on all models.

1POWER 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 OFF.

2WASH CYCLE KNOB

Turn the Wash Cycle knob to select a cycle for your laundry load. See “Cycle Guide” for detailed descriptions of cycles.

3TIME/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.

If you have set a delay start to the cycle, the Estimated Time Remaining display will show the delay time adjusted.

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

The Lid Lock indicator lights up when 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.

4ECO 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.

5START/PAUSE BUTTON

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

6CYCLE 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.

7CYCLE OPTIONS

You may 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.

ECOBOOST

The EcoBoost option allows you to increase your energy savings on your wash cycles. When this option is used,

8

7

the wash cycle will use cooler wash water than the selected cycle and may increase the spin speed for faster drying.

EXTRA RINSE

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

FABRIC SOFTENER DISPENSER

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

8CYCLE MODIFIERS

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 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.

USING YOUR WASHER

1. Sort and prepare your laundry

2. Add single-dose laundry packet, Oxi, color-safe bleach, or fabric softener crystals (if desired)

•Empty pockets. Loose change, buttons, or any small object can pass under the washplate 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.

Single-dose laundry packet, color-safe bleach, Oxi-type boosters, or fabric softener crystals can be added to the basket prior to adding laundry.

NOTE: Do not add clothes to washer basket prior to adding laundry products. Always follow manufacturer’s instructions.

3. Load laundry into washer

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. Try mixing different sized garments to reduce tangling.

IMPORTANT: Garments need to move freely for best cleaning and to reduce wrinkling and tangling.

8

NOTE: Do not add single-dose laundry packets, color-safe bleach, Oxi-type boosters, or fabric softener crystals to dispensers. They will not dispense correctly.

4. 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.

5. Add liquid chlorine bleach to dispenser

Liquid chlorine bleach dispenser

Do not overfill, dilute, or use more than 3/4 cup (180 mL). Do not use color-safe bleach or Oxi products in the same cycle with liquid chlorine bleach.

6. Add liquid fabric softener to dispenser

Fabric softener 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.

If Extra Rinse option is selected, fabric softener will be dispensed in the last rinse.

NOTE: Do not use liquid fabric softener dispenser balls in this washer. They will not dispense correctly.

7. Press POWER to turn on washer

WASHER 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.

NOTE: This washer does not include inlet hoses. See the Installation Instructions for more information.

WASHER CARE

Recommendations to Help Keep Your Washer Clean and Performing at its Best

1.Always use High Efficiency (HE) detergents and follow the HE detergent manufacturer’s instructions regarding the amount of HE 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.

Cleaning the Inside of the Washer

To keep your washer odor-free, follow the usage instructions provided above, and use this recommended monthly cleaning procedure:

Clean Washer Cycle

This washer has a special cycle that uses higher water volumes in combination with affresh® Washer Cleaner

or liquid chlorine bleach to clean the inside of the washer.

Begin procedure

1.affresh® Washer Cleaner Cycle Procedure (Recommended for Best Performance):

a.Open the washer lid and remove any clothing or items.

b.Place an affresh® Washer Cleaner tablet in the bottom of the washer basket.

c.Do not place an affresh® Washer Cleaner tablet in the detergent dispenser.

d.Do not add any detergent or other chemical to the washer when following this procedure.

e.Close the washer lid.

f.Select the CLEAN WASHER cycle.

g.Press the START/PAUSE button to begin the cycle. The Clean Washer Cycle Operation is described below.

NOTE: For best results, do not interrupt cycle. If cycle must be interrupted, press POWER/CANCEL. (For models with no Power/Cancel button, press and hold START/ PAUSE for three seconds). After the Clean Washer cycle has stopped, run a Rinse/Drain & Spin cycle to rinse cleaner from washer.

WASHER CARE (cont.)

2.Chlorine Bleach Procedure (Alternative):

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.Close the washer lid.

d.Do not add any detergent or other chemical to the washer when following this procedure.

e.Select the CLEAN WASHER cycle.

f.Press the START/PAUSE button to begin the cycle. The Clean Washer Cycle Operation is described below.

NOTE: For best results, do not interrupt cycle. If cycle must be interrupted, press POWER/CANCEL. (For models with no Power/Cancel button, press and hold START/ PAUSE for three seconds). After the Clean Washer cycle has stopped, run a Rinse/Drain & Spin cycle to rinse

cleaner from washer.

Description of Clean Washer Cycle Operation:

1.This cycle will fill to a water level higher than in normal wash cycles to provide rinsing at a level above the water line for normal wash cycle.

2.During this cycle, there will be some agitation and spinning to increase the removal of soils.

After this cycle is complete, leave the lid open to allow for better ventilation and drying of the washer interior.

Cleaning the Dispensers

After a period of using your washer, you may find some residue buildup in the washer’s dispensers. To remove residue from the dispensers, wipe them with a damp cloth and towel dry. Do not attempt to remove the dispensers or trim for cleaning. The dispensers and trim are not removable. If your model has a dispenser drawer, however, remove the drawer and clean it before or after you run the Clean Washer cycle. Use an all-purpose surface cleaner, if needed.

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 finish, do not use abrasive products.

11

NON-USE AND VACATION CARE

Operate your washer only when you are home.

If moving, or not using your washer for a period of time, follow these steps:

1.Unplug or disconnect power to washer.

2.Turn off water supply to washer, to avoid flooding due to water pressure surge.

WINTER STORAGE CARE

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage, install and store washer where it will not freeze. Because some water may stay in hoses, freezing can damage washer. If storing or moving during freezing weather, winterize your washer.

To winterize washer:

1.Shut off both water faucets; disconnect and drain water inlet hoses.

2.Put 1 qt. (1 L) of R.V.-type antifreeze in basket and run washer on RINSE/DRAIN & SPIN cycle for about 30 seconds to mix antifreeze and remaining water.

3.Unplug washer or disconnect power.

TRANSPORTING YOUR WASHER

1.Shut off both water faucets. Disconnect and drain water inlet hoses.

2.If washer will be moved during freezing weather, follow WINTER STORAGE CARE directions before moving.

3.Disconnect drain from drain system.

4.Unplug power cord.

5.Place inlet hoses inside washer basket.

6.Drape power cord and drain hose over the console and secure with masking tape.

7.Place foam packing ring from original shipping materials back inside washer. If you do not have packing ring, place heavy blankets or towels into basket opening. Close lid and place tape over lid and down front of washer. Keep lid taped until washer is placed in

new location.

12

REINSTALLING/USING WASHER AGAIN

To reinstall washer after non-use, vacation, winter storage or moving:

1.Refer to Installation Instructions to locate, level, and connect washer.

2.Before using again, run washer through the following recommended procedure:

To use washer again:

1.Flush water pipes and hoses. Reconnect water inlet hoses. Turn on both water faucets.

2.Plug in washer or reconnect power.
