HOW TO WASH
Operating Steps
Before using the washer for the first time, wipe the inside
and outside with a damp cloth to remove any travel d
ust
that has accumulated and we recommend operating a rinse
cycle to rinse out your machine.
Be sure the hot and cold water fauc
ets are turned on fully.
Make sure that the power cord is plugged in and that the
circuit is energized.
To familiarize you with
a load of convenience we suggest
"Your First Load"
be typical queen
-
size bedding. This
machine may be set to wash and dry autom
atically in any
cycle. Single
-
size sets will dry quicker and king
-
size
longer. Different types of materials may benefit from
being shaken out once the dry cycle has run long enough
(approximately 2 minutes) to allow the door to be opened.
It is importa
nt the clothes are able to tumble freely to
allow the drying process to occur. Dry times of over 100
minutes indicate an over
load condition that has resulted
in a loss of dry performance.
Your First Load
•
Use only 1 to 2 tablespoons of powder detergen
t or
liquid equivalent. For cold/cold wash and rinse add
detergent to dispenser "A"; for all other wash cycles,
add detergent
to dispenser "B". Refer to Wash Table for
other additive options.
•
Set the wash timer to regular wash. Set the water
selector to the desired wash rinse temperatures.
•
Set the heat and spin buttons to the out positions.
•
Set the dry timer to 80
minutes (100 minutes for
WDC1024M) (This automatically includes a 12 minute
cool down).
•
Place a set of queen
-
size sheets and p
illow
-
cases in the
drum loosely.
•
Push the on button.
•
Water will begin to enter the drum and the wash cycle
will start. Wash time will be approximately 60 minutes,
upon completion, the machine will automatically start
to dry the load.
When the dryer has completely finished
it's cycle the machine will automatically stop.
•
After washing and drying are complete the hot and cold
water faucets should be turned off and push the ON/
OFF switch. Wipe the inside off the washer door and
rubber boot with a soft
cloth or sponge to remove any
remaining moisture.
•
Once the machine is started in the wash cycle, for your
safety, the door is automatically locked and cannot be
opened. Attempting to open the door may break the
ha
n
dle or the latch. If for some reason the door must be
opened during the cycle, operate in the following way:
•
Press push button
OFF.
•
Turn timer knob to spin position.
•
Press push button ON and wait until water is
discharged.
•
Press push button
OFF and wait at least 2 minutes for
door lock to open.
•
To restart go back to "Operating Steps".
Pre
-
Wash
On more heavily soi
led wash loads a pre
-
wash will help to
obtain a better wash. It will disperse any superficial dirt
and help loosen soil ready fo
r the main wash.
To pre
-
wash, select the main wash cycle you wish to use.
Then turn the timer knob to the pre
-
wash setting
immediately preceding the regular cycle. If pre
-
wash with
detergent is required, the detergent must also be added in
compar
tment "A" of detergent dispenser. After the
pre
-
wash is completed the machine will automatically
perform the regular wa
sh.
NOTE:
When you set a combined program of washing
and tumble
-
drying, the cylinder must not be loaded with
more than the requi
red load size stated earlier in this
manual.
Judge this load by the dry times achieved. Dry times of
over 100 minutes indicat
e an overload condition that has
resulted in a loss of dry performance.
