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.
WHAT’S NEW UNDER THE LID?
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
garments to soak.
Cleaning with Less Water
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.

Water Level Control
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. 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.
Auto Temperature Control
Auto Temperature Control (ATC) regulates incoming hot
and cold water, blending the temperatures for optimal and
consistent cleaning. The ATC is automatically turned on when
a cycle is selected.
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.
