WASHER SAFETY
Your safety and the safety of others are 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 potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.
All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING." These words mean:
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow instructions.
All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.
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 solvents, 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 door or lid.
[] Do not reach intothe washer if the drum, tub or agitator is
moving.
[] Do not install or store the washer where itwill 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 manual or in
published user=repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.
[] See "Electrical Requirements" located in the installation
instructions for grounding instructions.

WHAT'S NEW UNDER THE LID?
Cleaning with Less Water
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.
Washer with low-water
washplate wash system
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 find 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 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.
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 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.
CONTROL PANEL AND FEATURES
O SOiL LEVEL
Select the most suitable setting for your load. For heavily soiled and sturdy fabrics, select Heavy Soil Level for more
wash time, if needed. For lightly soiled and delicate fabrics, select Ex Light Soil Level for less wash time, if needed.
Lighter soil level setting will help reduce tangling and wrinkling.
WASH 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.
= 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.
WASH CYCLE KNOB Use the Wash Cycle knob to select available cycles on
your washer. See "Cycle Guide" for detailed descriptions of
cycles.
RINSE OPTIONS
@
The following options may be added to most cycle. See "Cycle Guide" for additional details.
1 RINSE
This option is used to limit a cycle to one 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 inthe rinse for even distribution.
2 RINSES with SOFTENER
This option turns on both the Fabric Softener and the 2 Rinses option.
PRESOAK
O
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.
START/PAUSE BUTTON
O
Press to start the selected cycle; press again to pause the cycle and unlock the lid.
NOTE: If the washer is spinning, it may take several minutes to unlock the lid. Press and hold 3 seconds
to cancel a cycle.
CYCLE STATUS LIGHTS iNDICATOR
@
S_r_J_ WaS_ Rinse Spi_ Oor_e Lo_ke_
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 button is pressed, the washer will
first 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 briefly 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, then 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 briefly, 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
flowing through the dispenser, adding detergent to the load.
NOTE: Avoid opening 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.
4
RINSE
You will hear sounds similar to the wash cycle as the washer rinses and moves the load. Fabric softener will be
added if the 1 Rinse with Softener option was selected. Some cycles will use a spray rinse.
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 LOCKED
To allow for proper load sensing and spinning, the lid will lock and the Lid
Locked 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. 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 resume the cycle. Avoid opening the lid during sensing. The
sensing process will start over when the washer is restarted.

USING YOUR WASHER
Fire Hazard
Never place items in the washer that are dampened with gasoline or other flammable fluids.
No washer can completely remove oil. Do not dry anything that has ever had any type of oil on
it (including cooking oils). Doing so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
1, Sort and prepare your laundry
* 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.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove ground prong. Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
Add laundry products
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." 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.
NOTE: Follow the manufacturer's instructions to determine
the amount of laundry products to use.
3. Load laundry into washer
5, Add fabric softener, if desired

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
