7. To begin the wash cycle immediately
Select and hold START (for approximately 1 second).
If you do not select START within 5 minutes of choosing a
cycle, the washer automatically shuts off.
When the wash cycle is complete, the CYCLE COMPLETE
status light illuminates, the door unlocks, and the wash
load can be removed from the washer. The washer powers
down automatically 5 minutes after the cycle is complete
and the CYCLE COMPLETE light goes off until door is
opened. To power down the washer manually after the
wash cycle is complete, select PAUSE/CANCEL once.
8. To begin the wash cycle later
Select DELAY WASH until the desired delay time (in hours) is
displayed. Select START. The countdown to the wash cycle
will show in the display window.
IMPORTANT: When delaying a cycle, use only powdered
detergents in the main wash compartment since liquid
detergents may seep out of the compartment during Delay,
before the wash cycle begins.
Using the Dispenser
Your new washer has a dispenser drawer with three separate
compartments for your laundry products—one is for detergent,
one is for liquid chlorine bleach, and one is for liquid fabric
softener. Laundry products are diluted and dispensed
automatically at the proper time during the wash cycle, making it
unnecessary for you to return to the washer during the cycle to
add them.
It is normal for small amounts of water to remain in the dispensers
when the wash cycle is complete.
Do not put laundry products directly into the wash tub. Always
use the proper dispensers when adding laundry products.
Choosing the Right Detergent
Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package for this type of
detergent will be marked “HE” or “High Efficiency.”
This wash
system, along with less water, will create too much sudsing with a
regular non-HE detergent. Using regular detergent will likely result in
washer errors, longer cycle times, and reduced rinsing performance.
It may also result in component failures and noticeable mold or
mildew.
HE detergents are made to produce the right amount of
suds for the best performance. Follow the manufacturer's
instructions to determine the amount of detergent to use.
Remember, concentrated detergents such as 2x or higher will use
less detergent based on load size.
To fill dispenser compartments
1. Pull out the dispenser drawer.
2. Add the desired laundry products to the proper compartment.
3. Push in the dispenser drawer slowly and completely (to avoid
a spill).
Main Wash detergent compartment
(Letter B in Dispenser Illustration)
Add liquid or powdered HE detergent to this compartment for
your main wash cycle.
Powdered color-safe bleach may be added to the Main Wash
compartment along with the powdered detergent.
Use the measurement device which comes with the detergent.
Add no more than the manufacturer's recommended amount.
NOTE: Overfilling could cause an oversudsing condition.
Chlorine bleach compartment
(Letter C in Dispenser Illustration)
Add NO MORE THAN
2
/3 cup (160 mL) liquid chlorine bleach to
this compartment. The bleach will be automatically diluted and
dispensed at the best time during the first rinse after the wash
cycle. This compartment cannot dilute powdered bleach.
Use only liquid chlorine bleach in this dispenser. Do not use
this dispenser to add powdered chlorine or any form of color-
safe bleach to your load.
Always measure liquid chlorine bleach. Use a measuring cup
with a pour spout; do not guess. Follow the manufacturer’s
directions for proper use.
Do not fill beyond the “MAX” level.
NOTE: Overfilling could cause garment damage.
Fabric softener compartment
(Letter D in Dispenser Illustration)
Add ¼ cup (60 mL) liquid fabric softener to this compartment.
Fabric softener will be automatically dispensed in the final rinse or
in the EXTRA RINSE, if selected.
Do not fill beyond the “MAX” level.
Pausing or Restarting
1. To pause the washer at any time, select PAUSE/CANCEL.
2. To continue the cycle, select and hold START (for
approximately 1
second).
