Use & Care Information
Due to the unique washing action of the CALYPSO™ washer, it is strongly recommended that the consumer use
a High Efficiency detergent.
High Efficiency detergents are formulated to control sudsing which may occur with use of regular detergents. If the
consumer does not wish to use HE detergent, it is recommended to use 1/2 the normal amount. In soft water
locations, the quantity may need to be reduced even further.
Only LIQUID chlorine bleach should be used in the Bleach Dispenser. If color-safe bleach, (powder or liquid) is
used, it should be added to the Detergent Dispenser.
This new washer works differently than most washers that you are accustomed to. The most striking difference is
the washer does not have anagitator. It uses the innovative CALYPSO™ Wash Motion. The Wash Plate, at the
bottom of the basket, creates a motion that lifts, rolls and bounces the wash load through a mixture of
water and detergent that is continuously reapplied to the load to force out stains and soils.
The washer uses only enough water to saturate the clothes and recirculate over the load. The water is
filled only to the bottom of the Wash Plate. If the lid is opened during a wash cycle, no water is visible
and no additional water should be added. There is no deep wash/rinse as in traditional washers.
The CALYPSO™ washer spins at much higher speeds, (up to 800 RPM), than traditional washers. To
assist the consumer in unloading the clothing at the end of the cycle, the CALYPSO™ washer will FLUFF
the load after the spin is completed to loosen the clothing and ease in removal.
