For All Wash Cycles
1. To load washer
Open the washer door by pulling on the handle. Sort laundry
according to color and type of fabric. Place a load of sorted
clothes in the washer. Do not overload washer. Overloading
can cause poor cleaning.
■ The washer can be fully loaded, but not tightly packed.
Washer door should close easily.
■ Mix large and small items. Avoid washing a single item.
Load evenly.
■ Wash small items, such as infant socks, in mesh garment
bags. It is recommended that more than one garment bag
be used, and that each garment bag be filled with equal
amounts of material.
■ When unloading garments, occasionally check under the
rubber rim at the front of the tub for small items.
2. Close the washer door by pushing it firmly until the lock
clicks. The washer door will remain locked during the wash
cycle.
NOTE: After any wash cycle is completed, the door must be
opened and then closed before a new cycle can begin. The
door can be opened only if PAUSE/CANCEL is selected while
ADD A GARMENT shows in the status display or if the cycle
has been canceled. See “To cancel a cycle” in “Changing,
Cycles, Options and Modifiers” section.
3. Open the Dispenser Drawer and add laundry products to the
detergent, bleach, or fabric softener compartments. Close
drawer slowly to avoid spills. See “Using the Dispenser.”
4. Turn on the washer by selecting one of the WASH CYCLES.
The indicator light for the selected cycle will illuminate. When
selecting a Wash Cycle, the preset options, Soil Level, Temp,
Spin Speed for the selected cycle will illuminate. The display
shows the estimated time remaining. The preset settings
provide the recommended fabric care for the selected cycle.
See “Cycles.”
5. Select the desired Options. Not all Options are available with
all cycles. See “Options.”
6. Select the desired Modifiers (Soil Level, Temp, and Spin
Speed). Not all Modifiers are available with all Cycles and
Options. See “Modifiers.”
7. If desired, select the CYCLE END TONE. The signal is helpful
when you are washing items that should be removed from the
washer as soon as it stops.
8. To begin the wash cycle immediately
Select START (for approximately 1 second).
■ If you do not select START within 5 minutes of choosing a
cycle, the washer automatically shuts off.
■ When the wash cycle is complete, the CLOTHES CLEAN
status message is displayed, the door unlocks, and the
wash load can be removed from the washer. The washer
powers down automatically 5 minutes after the cycle is
complete and the CLOTHES CLEAN display goes off. To
power down the washer manually after the wash cycle is
complete, select PAUSE/CANCEL once.
9. To begin the wash cycle later
Select HOURS DELAY until the desired delay time (in hours)
shows in the Estimated Time Remaining display. Select
START. The countdown to the wash cycle will show in the
Status display.
Using the Dispenser
Your new washer has a dispenser drawer with four separate
compartments for your laundry products—two are for detergent,
one is for liquid chlorine bleach, and one is for liquid fabric
softener. Laundry products are diluted and dispensed
automatically at the proper time during the wash cycle, making it
unnecessary for you to return to the washer during the cycle to
add them.
It is normal for small amounts of water to remain in the
dispensers when the wash cycle is complete.
Do not put laundry additives directly into the wash tub, for
example detergent boosters. Always use the proper dispensers
when adding laundry products.
Choosing the Right Detergent
Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package for this type of
detergent will be marked “HE” or “High Efficiency.” This wash
system, along with less water, will create too much sudsing with a
regular non-HE detergent. Using regular detergent will likely result
in washer errors, 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.
To fill dispenser compartments
1. Pull out the dispenser drawer.
2. Add the desired laundry product to the proper compartment.
3. Push in the dispenser drawer slowly and completely (to avoid
a spill).
Use only HE High Efficiency detergent.
