WASHER SAFETY

WHAT’S NEW UNDER THE LID?

Your new washer will operate dierently than your past agitator-style washer.

For best performance, it is recommended to load items in loose

heaps evenly around the washplate.

As the washer dampens and moves the load, the level of the

items will settle in the basket. This is normal, and does not

indicate that more items 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.

■The lid must be closed before the washer basket lls with

water and for wash cycle to start. If lid is open and lling

stops, close lid and press START button to complete cycle.

Choosing the Right Detergent

Use only High Eciency detergents. The package will be

marked “HE” or “High E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 and do not go over the Max line on the dispenser. See

“Using Laundry Product Dispensers” for more information.

Normal Sounds You Can Expect

At dierent stages of the wash cycle, you may hear sounds and

noises that are dierent 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

dierent kinds of humming sounds as the washplate moves the

load and as basket is slowing down to stop. 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.

Use only High Efciency (HE) detergent.

Improved 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. This low

water wash also allows the clothing to move in a more eective

way to remove soils.

Cleaning with Less Water

The washer automatically adjusts the water level to the load

size—no water level selector is needed.

Traditional agitator-style

washer Washer with low-water

wash system

Washplate

Automatic Load Size Sensing

Once you start the cycle, the washer will ll to the water level.

When the washer is done lling, it will start to agitate after it

determines the correct water level for the load.

This low-water wash method uses less water and energy

compared to a traditional agitator-style washer.

CONTROL PANEL AND FEATURES

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 Extra 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. All rinses are cold.

RINSE

This option is used to add additional rinse cycles.

WASH CYCLE KNOB

Use the Wash Cycle knob to select cycles on your washer.

See “Cycle Guide” for detailed descriptions of cycles.

START/PAUSE/Unlock Lid button

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 for 3 seconds to cancel a cycle.

CYCLE STATUS LIGHTS INDICATOR

The Cycle Status Lights show the progress of a cycle. At each

stage of the process, you may notice sounds or pauses that

are dierent from traditional washers.

SENSING

When the Start/Pause button is pressed, the washer will ll

and begin sensing to determine the load size.

Once sensing is complete, the washer will ll to the detect-

ed load size and then begin the wash phase of the cycle.

NOTE: Sensing ll and agitation 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 spin out and

remain locked for the remainder of the cycle.

WASH

You will hear the motor and agitator moving the load.

During the rst stage of the sensing/wash cycle, water will

partially ll the washer and then begin to move the load. It

is normal to have the sensing light on during this stage. You

will hear the agitator rotate, followed by a several second

pause. This process will repeat for several minutes, allowing

the entire load to become saturated. The lower water

level combined with HE detergent at this stage allows for

concentrated cleaning. Concentrated cleaning delivers the

detergent directly to the soils. It is normal for the load to

be above the water line during this stage. At the beginning

of the second stage, the washer will add water to the

correct level based on the load size. You will hear the

agitator move quicker during this stage of the wash cycle.

The motor sounds may change at dierent stages in the

wash cycle.

Not all features and options are available on all models.

Appearance may vary.

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.

SPIN

The washer spins the load at increasing speeds for

proper water removal, based on the selected cycle

and spin speed.

COMPLETE

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/Unlock Lid. 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 Lid 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

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,

re, or electrical shock.

WARNING

• 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 labels instructions to

avoid damage to your garments.

1. Sort and prepare your laundry

Add a measured of amount of detergent or single-dose laundry

packet into the basket.

crystals, add to the bottom of the washer basket before adding

clothes.

IMPORTANT: Use only High Eciency detergents. The package

will be marked “HE” or “High E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.

NOTE: Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to determine the

amount of laundry products to use.

2. Turn o water supply to washer, to avoid ooding 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 o 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/Spin cycle for about 30 seconds to mix

antifreeze and remaining water.

3. Unplug washer or disconnect power.

NON-USE AND VACATION CARE

WASHER MAINTENANCE

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, 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
