Maytag SE1000 Washer/Dryer User Manual


 
I. Slide Lid Back
The washer lid slides back and forth to open and close.
For your convenience a tub light comes on when you
open the lid. (Keep lid closed when you are not using
the washer to prevent the tub light from operating
unnecessarily.)

PLACE CLOTHES IN WASHER
Put unfolded clothes loosely in the tub, up to the top
row of holes for maximum load. Do not pack or wrap
items around the agitator. See MAYTAG LAUNDER-
ING GUIDE for suggestions on sorting into wash loads.
Be sure to empty all pockets. Many a wash load has
turned into a real problem because of an overlooked
pin, crayon, lipstick, eraser, knife, nail, or other similar
objects being left in a pocket.

ADD BLEACH, if needed
Undiluted liquid chlorine bleach may be added to the
bleach dispenser as shown. Use amount recommended

gallons of water: SMALL - 11 gallons (9 Imperial
gallons; 42 liters); MEDIUM -13 gallons (11 Imperial
gallons; 49 liters); LARGE - 16 gallons (13 Imperial
gallons; 61 liters). Properly diluted bleach will be added
automatically to the wash water.
NOTE: Be careful whenever you use a liquid chlorine
bleach. Do not pour directly on fabrics. Wipe
up spills with a paper towel.

on the package. Do not put powdered bleach in bleach
dispenser.

ADD DETERGENT
You may use any laundry detergent. Add detergent to
washbasket by moving clothes away from agitator and
pouring measured amount around agitator unless deter-
gent manufacturer instructs otherwise.
The amount of detergent to use depends on how big the
load is, how dirty it is, and how hard the water is. See
MAYTAG LAUNDERING GUIDE for correct amounts
to use; inadequate amounts may cause greying of
fabrics and other problems.
Wipe up any spills of liquid laundry detergent on the
washer.
Do not add detergent to fabric softener cup.
