Water-Saver Option

Turning the selector knob to SAVE allows wash water from REGULAR and DELICATE cycles to be pumped into a separate storage tub (approxi- mately 24-gallon capacity) and saved for the next load. (All rinse water will drain as usual.)

When the selector knob is turned to DRAIN, the wash water is not saved for reuse. The water drains normally.

NOTE: Water cannot be saved when WRINKLE FREE FABRICS cycle is used. It is best not to reuse wash water for washing wrinkle free items. These items may pick up soil and lint suspended from previous washings, which may be difficult to remove.

Return Saved Wash Water

To return the saved wash water into the washer for the next load follow these steps:

(Do not add the load until the water from the storage tub has been returned to the washer tub.)

1.Push in the cycle control knob and turn clockwise to the WATER RETURN position.

2.Pull out the control knob to start pumping the water from the storage tub back into the washer. The washer lid must be closed. The washer will start agitating when the control knob is pulled out and will continue to agitate until it is pushed in.

3.After the water has been returned to the washer tub, push in the control knob. (A small amount of water and sedi- ment will remain in the storage tub.)

4.Add approximately 1/2 the normal amount of detergent and, if desired, the normal amount of bleach.

5.ADD WASH LOAD.

6.Reset the control knob to a Regular cycle or a Delicate cycle. If extra water is needed for the water level selected, the washer will add it automatically. If the temperature selection is on “HOT”, the water added will help maintain the temperature of the saved water.

7.Leave the control knob on SAVE if you want to reuse the wash water again. If not, turn to DRAIN.

8.Rinse the storage tub out to remove any sediment once your laundry is done.

Water-Saver Usage Tips

(Do not add the load until the water from the storage tub has been returned to the washer tub.)

• Suggested loads and laundering sequence are:

a.Lightly soiled whites, such as sheets and pillow cases.

b.Lightly soiled colors, such as cotton blouses, shirts and sheets.

c.Dark or bright colored items.

d. Heavily soiled items such as jeans, work clothes or rugs.

The first load should be one that can be safely washed in hot water. When the water is reused, the temperature will be suitable for warm water washing.

The number of times the wash water is saved and reused depends upon how dirty the loads are and the scarcity of water.

NOTE: It is recommended that wrinkle free items be washed in fresh water.
