What’s New Under the Lid?

Lid Lock

To allow for higher spin speeds, the lid will lock and the Lid Locked light will turn on. When this light is lit, the lid is locked and cannot be opened. When this light is blinking, the washer is paused. When this light is off,

the lid can be opened. After a cycle is started, the washer will fill to the appropriate water level. When the washer

is done filling, it will start to agitate. If you need to open the lid to add a garment after this point, the lid will remain unlocked during the entire agitation portion of the wash phase. The cycle will automatically pause when the lid

is opened, and the cycle will resume once the lid is closed. The lid will lock before the spin phase begins. If you need to pause or stop after this point, you must press

the Start/Pause button and wait for the lid to unlock. The lid will only unlock after washer movement has

stopped. Depending on when in the cycle you try to pause, it may take several seconds to several minutes for the lid

to unlock. Press Start/Pause to resume the cycle.

Water Level Options

Set the Water Level knob to the Auto Sensing setting and the washer will fill to a level that ensures the load

engages the agitator. From this point, the electronic control will sense the load and determine if additional water

is needed. Set the Water Level knob to the Deep Water Wash setting and the washer will fill to the maximum

water level.

Sounds

At different stages of the wash cycle, you may

hear sounds and pauses that are different from those of your previous washer. For example, you may hear a clicking and hum at the beginning of the spin phase as the lid lock goes through a self-test. There will

be different kinds of humming and whirring sounds as the agitator tests for load balance or moves the load. Sometimes, you may hear nothing at all as the washer allows time for clothes to soak.

Choosing the Right Detergent

Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package will be marked “HE” or “High Efficiency.” Using non-HE detergent will likely result in longer cycle times

and reduced rinsing performance. It may also result in component malfunction and, over time, build-up

of mold or mildew. HE detergents should be low-sudsing and quick-dispersing to produce the right amount

of suds for the best performance. They should hold soil in suspension so it is not redeposited onto clean clothes. Not all detergents labeled as High Efficiency are identical in formulation and their ability to reduce suds. For example, natural, organic, or homemade HE detergents may generate a high level of suds. Always follow the detergent manufacturer’s instructions

to determine the amount of detergent to use.

Sensing

This washer will perform a series of spins to check for load balance. During this time, a series of clicks and a whirring noise signal that sensing technology is determining if there is an off-balance load.

Use only High Efficiency (HE) detergent.

Spray Rinse

Select cycles default to a spray rinse. During these cycles, you will hear water enter the washer as the tub spins, allowing the rinse water to penetrate clothes. Check

the “Cycle Guide” for details.

IMPORTANT:

■■ The lid must be closed before the washer basket fills with water and for the wash cycle to start. If the lid is open and filling stops, close the lid and press the Start/Pause button to complete the cycle.

■■ Rinse options must be set to either 1 Rinse with softener or 2 Rinses with softener when using fabric softener in the fabric softener dispenser. This ensures that fabric softener is added at the correct time in the rinse phase and is evenly distributed.

Not all features and options are available on all models. Appearance may vary.

1SOIL LEVEL

Select the setting most suitable for your load. For heavily soiled and sturdy fabrics, select Heavy Soil Level for more wash time. For lightly soiled and delicate fabrics, select Light Soil Level for less wash time. A lighter soil level setting will help reduce tangling and wrinkling.

2WASH TEMP

Wash Temp 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.

5WATER LEVEL

Set the Water Level knob to the Auto Sensing setting and the washer will fill to a level that ensures the load engages the agitator. From this point, the electronic control will sense the load and determine if additional water is needed.

Set the Water Level knob to the Deep Water Wash setting and the washer will fill to the maximum water level.

NOTE: Expect longer cycles times due to extended fill times when using the Deep Water Wash option.

6START/PAUSE BUTTON

Press to start the selected cycle. Press again to pause the cycle and unlock the lid.

■■ On some models and cycles, warm and hot water may be cooler than your previous washer.

■■ Even in a cold and cool water wash, some warm water may be added to the washer to maintain a minimum temperature.

All rinses are cold.

3WASH CYCLE KNOB

Use the wash cycle knob to select cycles on your washer. See the “Cycle Guide” chart for detailed descriptions of cycles.

4RINSE OPTIONS

The following options may be added to most cycles. See the “Cycle Guide” chart for additional details.

1 RINSE

This option is used to limit a cycle to a single rinse.

2 RINSES

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

1 RINSE WITH 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.

2 RINSES WITH SOFTENER

This option turns on both the Fabric Softener and the 2 Rinses option.

NOTE: If the washer is spinning, it may take several minutes to unlock the lid. Press and hold for 3 seconds to cancel

a cycle.

7 PROGRESS LIGHTS

The Progress lights show the progress of a cycle. At each stage of the process, you may notice sounds or pauses that are different from your previous washer.

SENSING

When the Start/Pause button is pressed and the Water Level knob is set to Auto Sensing, the washer will fill and begin sensing to determine load size and balance. Once sensing is complete, the washer will fill to the appropriate level for the detected load size and then begin the wash phase of the cycle.

NOTE: Sensing and wash phases will be paused by opening the unlocked lid. Close the lid to resume the cycle. If the lid is left open for more than 10 minutes, the washer will cancel the cycle and pump out the water. The lid will lock after the wash phase to begin the initial spinout and remain locked for the remainder of the cycle.

4

WASH

The washer will fill to the correct water level based on the load size and the Water Level selection. Certain cycles may agitate during the fill process to boost cleaning. You will hear the agitator rotate followed by a pause lasting several seconds. When the wash cycle begins, you will hear the agitator increase speed. The motor sounds may change at different stages in the wash cycle while the washer performs different wash actions.

RINSE

Certain cycles use a spray rinse, which adds water to the tub while the basket spins. When a fabric softener option is selected, you will hear sounds similar to the wash cycle as the washer rinses and moves the load. You may hear the motor turning on briefly (short hum) to move the basket while filling.

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. For best results, remove the load promptly.

LOCKED

The Lock feature allows for higher spin speeds. When lit, the lid is locked and cannot be opened without pausing the cycle. When the light is off, the lid can be opened.

To open the lid after it has been locked, 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 while the lid is closed to resume the cycle.

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 agitator 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 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 items during washing.

Helpful Tips:

■■ When washing water-proof or water-resistant items, load evenly.

■■ 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.

NOTE: Always read and follow fabric care label instructions to avoid damage to your garments.

Add a measured amount of HE

detergent or single-dose laundry

packet into the basket.

If using Oxi-type boosters, color-safe bleach, or fabric-softener crystals, add

to the bottom of the washer basket before adding clothes.

IMPORTANT: Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package will be marked “HE” or “High Efficiency.” 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: Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to determine the amount of laundry products to use.

3. Load laundry into washer

5. Add fabric softener to dispenser

Load garments in loose heaps evenly around basket wall. For best results,

do not pack the load tightly. Do not wrap large items such as sheets around

the agitator. Load them in loose piles around the sides of the basket. Try mixing different-sized items to reduce tangling.

IMPORTANT: Do not tightly pack or

force items into washer. Items need to move freely

for best cleaning and to reduce wrinkling and tangling.

4. Add liquid chlorine bleach to dispenser

Liquid

Chlorine Bleach

Do not overfill, dilute, or use more than 1 cup (236 mL) of liquid chlorine bleach.

Do not use color-safe bleach or Oxi products in the same cycle with liquid chlorine bleach.

Pour a measured amount of liquid fabric
softener into dispenser. Always follow
manufacturer’s directions for correct amount	MAX FILL
of fabric softener based on your load size.

Dilute liquid fabric softener by filling the dispenser with warm water until liquid reaches the underside of the rim.

See "Max Fill" line arrows.

IMPORTANT: The Rinse Options knob must be set to either 1 Rinse with softener or 2 Rinses with softener when using fabric softener in the fabric softener dispenser. This ensures that fabric softener is added at the correct time in the rinse phase and is evenly distributed.

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 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. This 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.
