IMPORTANT: Before using your new washer,
make sure the washer cord is plugged into a 120
Volt electrical outlet that has the proper
grounding and polarity. Make sure the washer
hoses are connected to the hot and cold water
faucets, and that the faucets are turned on. Be
sure the drain hose is not kinked and is inserted
into a drain. See the INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS for details of proper washer
installation.
IMPORTANT: Prior to first wash, use an all
purpose cleaner, or a detergent and water
solution, and a damp cloth to remove shipping
dust from inside of washtub.
1. Get the clothes ready for
washing. Empty pockets and
cuffs. Sort items into separate
loads. Pretreat stains and
heavily soiled areas.
2. Measure and add detergent
to the
washtub.
3. Add clothes loosely into the
washtub.
4. Close the loading door. The
washer will not agitate or
spin with the loading door
open.
5. Set WASH/RINSE temperatures.
NOTE: Do not use a warm
rinse with permanent press
or other synthetic fabrics.
A warm rinse can cause
wrinkling in some
garments. Cold rinses will
save you money and energy
and will help reduce
wrinkling in permanent
press and synthetics.
When using the DELICATE cycle, a WARM
rinse is not available. If the WASH/RINSE
selector is set on WARM/WARM, it will still
give a COLD rinse. This is to assure proper care
of delicate items.
The Energy Saver settings, marked with an
asterisk (
*), show which temperature settings
will use the least energy.
6. Set LOAD SIZE
(WATER LEVEL)
control. Use RESET
if agitation has started
and more water is
needed.
IMPORTANT: Holding
the LOAD SIZE
(WATER LEVEL)
control in the RESET position can cause
flooding of the washer.
7. Select the cycle according to the type of fabric
being washed. Push the timer knob in and turn
clockwise to the desired cycle and wash time.
8. Pull the timer knob out to start the water fill.
Agitation will begin when the water reaches the
level you selected.
The washer will stop (pause) shortly before the
wash and rinse spins. Do not turn the timer through
these pauses. They are part of the cycle.
To reduce the risk of serious injury, do
not by-pass the loading door switch by
permitting the washer to agitate or spin
with the loading door open.
