Pause/Cancel
Press PAUSE/CANCEL once to pause or stop the washer at any
time. Press PAUSE/CANCEL once to unlock the lid and add a
garment. Press START to complete the cycle from where it was
stopped. Press PAUSE/CANCEL twice to stop the wash cycle.
The washer will then drain and turn off.
Lid Lock
When the Lid Lock status light glows, the washer lid is locked.
NOTE: You must wait until the Lid Lock Light turns off before the
lid can be opened.
Normal Sounds
Your new washer may make sounds your old one didn’t. Because
the sounds might be unfamiliar, you may be concerned about
them. These sounds are normal.
During washing
If you select the Deep Clean option, you will hear a spin/spray
noise at the start of the cycle.
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.
During wash and spin
This washer does not have a transmission. The motor provides
direct drive for agitation and spin. You will hear sounds that are
different from those of a conventional washer.
LAUNDRY TIPS
Preparing clothes for washing
Follow these recommendations to help you prolong the life of
your garments.
■ Close zippers, snaps, and hooks to avoid snagging other
items. Remove pins, buckles, and other hard objects to avoid
scratching the washer interior. Remove non-washable trim
and ornaments.
■ Empty pockets and turn them inside-out.
■ Turn down cuffs; brush away lint and dirt.
■ Turn synthetic knits inside-out to avoid pilling.
■ Tie strings and sashes so they will not tangle.
■ Mend tears, loose hems, and seams.
■ Treat spots and stains.
■ Stained or wet garments should be washed promptly for best
results.
Sorting
■ Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled ones, even if
they would normally be washed together. Separate lint-givers
(towels, chenille) from lint-takers (corduroy, synthetics,
permanent press). When possible, turn lint-givers inside-out.
■ Separate dark colors from light colors, colorfast items from
noncolorfast items.
■ Sort by fabric and construction (sturdy cottons, knits, delicate
items).
Unloading
■ Remove clothes from washer after the cycle is completed.
Metal objects such as zippers, snaps, and buckles may rust if
left in the washer basket for a long time.
WASH ER C ARE
Cleaning Your Washer
Use a soft, damp cloth or sponge to wipe up any spills such as
detergent or bleach from the outside of your washer.
Clean your washer interior by mixing 1 cup (250 mL) of chlorine
bleach and 2 cups (500 mL) of detergent. Pour this mixture into
your washer and run it through a complete cycle using hot water.
Repeat this process if necessary.
Remove any hard water deposits using only cleaners labeled as
washer safe.
Cleaning the liquid fabric softener dispenser:
1. To remove the fabric softener dispenser from the agitator,
wrap both hands behind the top of the fabric softener
dispenser and interlock fingers. Lift up while pulling toward
you.
2. Separate the top and base of the dispenser. Rinse all three
dispenser parts (the base, the inner cone-shaped cup and the
top) under warm water.
3. For ease of assembly, reassemble the dispenser with the
parts upside down.
IMPORTANT: Be sure the inner cone-shaped cup is straight
and placed completely in the top of the dispenser before
installing the base.
NOTE: To avoid damage to the washer or clothing, do not wash
clothes with the liquid fabric softener dispenser removed or add
detergent or bleach to this dispenser; it is for liquid fabric
softener only.
