WASHER USE
Understanding Washer Cycles
When the washer lid is closed and the Cycle Control knob is set
to a number or cycle and pulled out, the washer fills (to the
selected load size) before agitation and timing start. The washer
begins agitating immediately after filling; agitation occurs with the
washer lid down.
During agitation, the agitator creates a continuous rollover action
(on some models) that provides a thorough cleaning of the wash
load.
After agitation starts, the Cycle Control knob turns clockwise until
it points to an OFF area and the cycle ends.
NOTE: The washer pauses briefly throughout each cycle. These
pauses are normal for washer operation.
Loading
For rated load capacity, refer to the model and serial label/plate,
located on your washer as shown in Parts and Features.
Loading suggestions
For these suggested full-sized loads, set the LOAD SIZE selector
to the highest load size setting.
Normal Sounds
Your new washer may make sounds your old one didnt. Because
the sounds might be unfamiliar, you may be concerned about
them. These sounds are normal.
During washing
When you select a small load size setting, your washer has a
lower water level. This can cause a clicking sound from the upper
part of the agitator.
During drain
If water is drained quickly from your washer (depending on your
installation), you may hear air being pulled through the pump
during the end of draining.
After drain and before spin
When the cycle changes from draining to spinning, you may hear
gears engaging.
