To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS before operating this appliance.
LOADING YOUR WASHER
You can fill the tub with dry, unfolded clothes, but DO NOT OVERLOAD the tub.
Overloading may reduce washing efficiency, cause excess wear, and possibly cause creasing or
wrinkling of the load.
Wash delicate items such as bras, hosiery, and other lingerie in the Delicates cycle with similar
lightweight items.
When washing big bulky items or a few smaller items that don’t fill the tub completely – a rug, a pillow, stuffed
toys, or one or two sweaters, for example – add a few towels to improve tumbling and spin performance.
During the spin cycle, the washer may add water to redistribute any imbalance inside the drum.
To ensure good cleaning results when washing heavily soiled loads, do not overload your washer.
To add a forgotten item:
1. Press the Power button.
2. Press the Start/Pause Button.
3. Wait for the Door Lock light to go out (5 seconds).
4. Add the item, close the door, and press the Start/Pause Button.
After a 10-second pause, the cycle resumes.
To ensure thorough cleaning, add items within five minutes of starting the wash cycle.
GETTING STARTED
1. Load your washer.
2. Close the door.
3. Press the Power button.
4. Add detergent and additives to the dispenser (see pages 24~25).
5. Select the appropriate cycle and options for the load (see pages 20~21).
6. Press the Start/Pause Button.
7. The Wash Indicator light illuminates.
8. The estimated cycle time appears in the display.
The time may fluctuate to indicate the time remaining in the cycle better.
The actual time required for a cycle may differ from the estimated time in the display depending on the
water pressure, water temperature, detergent, and laundry.
9. Before your washer starts to fill, it will make a series of clicking noises to check the door lock and do a
quick drain.
When the cycle is complete, the Door Lock light goes out and “End” appears in the display.
DO NOT attempt to open the door until the Door Lock light is off. To add a forgotten item, see the
“Loading your washer” section. (page 19)
When you restart your washer after a pause, expect a delay of up to 15 seconds before the cycle
continues.
Pressing Power cancels the cycle and stops your washer.
The Wash, Rinse, and Spin indicator lights illuminate during those portions of the cycle.
Do not place anything on top of your washer while it is running.
