Washer Safety

What’s New Under the Lid?

Cleaning with Less Water

Washplate

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.

Low-water washer

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. This may take several minutes before water is added. You will nd 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.

Choosing the Right Detergent

Use only High Efciency detergents. The package will be marked “HE” or “High Efciency.” 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.

For best performance, it is recommended to load garments in loose heaps evenly around the washplate.

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.

Use only High Efciency (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.

Control Panel and Features

ECO MONITOR

Your washer is specially designed to conserve energy and water. Each cycle, along with any selected options, will result in different energy usage. As you make your cycle and temperature selections, the Eco Monitor shows how well you are saving energy. Adjust the temperature and spin speed within that cycle to improve energy usage. Using the EcoBoost™ setting on a cycle can also be a one-touch way to improve your Eco Monitor rating on many cycles.

POWER

Press to turn the washer on and off, or to cancel a cycle.

WASH CYCLE KNOB

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

START/PAUSE/UNLOCK

Press to start the selected cycle; press again to pause the cycle and unlock the lid. Press and hold 3 sec to cancel a cycle.

NOTE: If the washer is spinning, it may take several minutes to unlock the lid.

CYCLE SETTINGS

When you select a cycle, its default settings will light up.

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.

• On some models and cycles, warm and hot water will be cooler than what your previous washer provided.

• Even in a Cool water wash, some warm water may be added to the washer to maintain a minimum temperature.

SOIL LEVEL

Soil Level (wash time) is preset for each wash cycle. As you press Soil Level, 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. 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.

EST TIME REMAINING 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.

CYCLE OPTIONS

DEEP CLEAN

This option provides enhanced cleaning action for tough stains. It will add additional agitation and soak time to the cycle.

DELAY WASH

If you would like to set your washer to start at a preferred time, select the Delay Wash option. You can use this option to delay start of a wash cycle for up to 9 hours (depending on model). Press Delay Wash button once to delay 1 hour. If you want a longer delay period, press and hold the button until your desired delay time (in hours) shows in the Estimated Time Remaining display, up to 9H. Then press START/Pause/Unlock to set the delay. The countdown to the wash cycle will show in the display window.

PRESOAK

Use this option to add an extra soak period to any cycle when washing heavily soiled garments. You can adjust the length of the soak period by changing the Soil Level.

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 slightly cooler wash water than the selected temperature. The indicated temperature will not change.

FABRIC SOFTENER

This option must be selected if using fabric softener during a cycle. It ensures that fabric softener is added at the correct time in the rinse for even distribution.

SOAK

This portion of the cycle allows water to soak into the load for optimal cleaning.

CYCLE SIGNAL

Use this option to adjust volume of the signal that sounds at end of cycle. You may select Loud, Soft, or Off (no indicator lit). A louder signal is helpful in removing items as soon as cycle is complete.

NOTE: Press and hold the Cycle Signal button for 6 seconds to turn button sounds off or on.

You may also 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.

CYCLE STATUS LIGHTS

The Cycle Status Lights show the progress of a cycle. At each stage of the process, you may notice sounds or pauses that are different from traditional washers.

SENSING

When the START/Pause/Unlock button is pressed, the washer will rst perform a self-test on the lid lock mechanism. You will hear a click, the basket will make a slight turn, and the lid will unlock briey before locking again.

Once the lid has locked the second time, the washer will use short, slow spins to estimate the load size. These sensing spins may take 2 to 3 minutes before water is added to the load and you may hear the hum of these spins. If the sensing light is on, the washer is working properly. You will hear the motor turn the basket in short pulses to thoroughly wet the load. The washer will then move the load briey, pause to allow water to soak in to the load, and resume adding water. This process may repeat until the correct amount of water has been added for the load. You may also hear water owing through the dispenser, adding detergent to the load.

NOTE: Avoid opening the lid during sensing. The sensing process will start over when the washer is restarted. The sensing light may also come on during the Soak and Wash portions of the cycle. This is normal.

WASH

You will hear the motor and washplate moving the load. Unlike traditional washers, the load is not covered with water. 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. The motor sounds may change at different stages in the cycle. The wash time is determined by the selected soil level.

RINSE

You will hear sounds similar to the wash cycle as the washer rinses and moves the load. You may hear the motor turning on briey (short hum) to move the basket while lling. Fabric softener will be added if the Fabric Softener option was selected. Some cycles use spray rinsing.

SPIN

The washer spins the load at increasing speeds for proper water removal, based on the selected cycle and spin speed.

DONE

Once the cycle is complete, this light will come on. Remove the load promptly for best results.

LID LOCK

To allow for proper load sensing and spinning, the lid will lock and the Lid Lock light will turn on. This light indicates that the lid is locked and cannot be opened.

If you need to open the lid, press START/ Pause/Unlock. 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/Unlock again to resume the cycle.

Cycle Guide

Settings and options shown in bold are default settings for that cycle. For best fabric care, choose the cycle that best ts 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.

Cycle Details:

Provides additional water and alternating wash action for heavily soiled mixed loads. Water-level sensing process may take longer for some items than for others because they will absorb more water than other fabric types.

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

Use this cycle for heavily soiled or sturdy items. Water-level sensing process may take longer for some items than for others because they will absorb more water than other fabric types.

Use this cycle to wash large items such as jackets and small comforters. The washer will ll with enough water to wet down the load before the wash portion of the cycle begins, and uses a higher water level than other cycles.

Use this cycle for normally soiled cottons and mixed fabric loads. This cycle uses spray rinses.

Use this cycle to wash loads of no-iron fabrics such as sport shirts, blouses, casual business clothes, permanent press, and blends.

Use this cycle to wash small, lightly soiled loads of 2-3 items that are needed in a hurry. This cycle features a spray rinse.

Use this cycle to wash lightly soiled garments indicating “Machine Washable Silks” or “Gentle” cycle on the care label. Place small items in mesh garment bags before washing. This cycle uses a higher, preset water level.

This cycle uses cold water wash and a concentrated detergent solution to gently lift out stains and care for fabrics. Settings may be adjusted as desired, but must use only cold water settings.

Cycle Details:

Use this cycle every 30 washes to keep the inside of 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 “Washer Care.”

IMPORTANT: Do not place garments or other items in the washer during the Clean Washer with affresh® cycle. Use this cycle with an empty wash tub.

Use this cycle to soak small spots of set-in stains on fabrics. After time has expired, washer will drain, but will not spin and a tone will sound. To set a follow-up cycle, add additional detergent and select a cycle based on fabric type.

This cycle uses a spin to shorten drying times for heavy fabrics or special-care items washed by hand. Use this cycle to drain washer after cancelling a cycle or completing a cycle after a power failure.

Combines a rinse and high speed spin for loads requiring an additional rinse cycle or to complete a load after power interruption. Also use for loads that require rinsing only.

Using Your Washer

1. Sort and prepare your laundry 2. Add laundry products

• Empty pockets. Loose change, buttons, or any small object can pass under the washplate and become trapped, causing unexpected sounds.

• Sort garments by recommended cycle, water temperature, and colorfastness.

• Separate heavily soiled garments from lightly soiled.

• Separate delicate garments from sturdy fabrics.

• Do not dry garments if stains remain after washing, because heat can set stains into fabric.

• Treat stains promptly.

• Close zippers, fasten hooks, tie strings and sashes, and remove non-washable trim and ornaments.

• Mend rips and tears to avoid further damage to garments 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 garment 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 label 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

For best performance, load garments in loose heaps evenly around the washplate.Try mixing different sized garments to reduce tangling.

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

Liquid

Chlorine Bleach

Using Laundry Product Dispensers

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

Detergent tray

Add a measured amount of HE detergent into detergent tray. This tray holds 3 oz. (89 mL). Do not overll tray - adding too much detergent may cause detergent to be dispensed into the washer too early.

IMPORTANT: Use only High Efciency detergents. The package will be marked “HE” or “High Efciency.” 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.

HELPFUL TIP: See “Washer Maintenance” for information on recommended method of cleaning washer dispenser trays.

6. Add liquid fabric softener

to dispenser

Fabric softener tray

Pour a measured amount of liquid fabric softener into tray; always follow manufacturer’s directions for correct amount of fabric softener based on your load size. Close dispenser drawer, then select Fabric Softener option.

IMPORTANT: Fabric Softener option must be selected to ensure proper distribution at correct time in cycle. Do not overll or dilute. Overlling dispenser will cause fabric softener to immediately dispense into washer.

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

It is normal for a small amount of water to remain in the dispenser at the end of a cycle.

7. Press POWER to turn on washer

5. Add liquid chlorine bleach

to dispenser

Do not overll, dilute, or use more than 1 cup (250 mL). Do not use color-safe bleach or Oxi products in the same cycle with liquid chlorine bleach.

Make sure the dispenser drawer is closed completely, then press POWER to turn on the washer.

8. Select cycle

9. Select cycle settings

Turn cycle knob to choose your wash cycle. When knob is lined up with a cycle, you will hear a clicking sound. Indicator for Estimated Time Remaining will light up with a cycle time. For more information, see “Control Panel”.

If you do not want to begin a cycle immediately, you may choose DELAY WASH option.

To set a delayed Start:

1. Press DELAY WASH button to select

desired start time.

2. Press START/Pause/Unlock to set the

delay. The delay countdown has started when the START/Pause/Unlock light stops blinking.

To cancel delaying a cycle:

Press START/Pause/Unlock again to begin a wash cycle immediately.

IMPORTANT: When delaying a cycle, use liquid HE detergent only in the detergent dispenser tray. Powdered detergents may absorb moisture from a previous cycle and clump before the wash cycle begins.

Once you select a cycle, the default settings for that cycle will light up. Press the cycle settings buttons to change the Temperature, Soil Level, and Spin Speed, if desired. Always read and follow fabric care label instructions to avoid damage to your garments.

Unlocking the lid to add garments

If you need to open the lid to add 1 or 2 missed garments: Press START/Pause/Unlock; the lid will unlock once the

washer movement has stopped. This may take several minutes if the load was spinning at high speed. Then close lid and press START/Pause/Unlock again to restart the cycle.

If lid is left open for more than 10 minutes, the water will pump out automatically.

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 Efciency (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 odorcausing 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.

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 nd 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 nish, do not use abrasive products.

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 ooding due

to water pressure surge.
