Safety Instructions
Operating Instructions
Loading and using the washer. Always follow fabric manufacturer’s care label when laundering.
Sorting Wash Loads
Sort by color (whites, lights, colors), soil level, fabric type (sturdy cottons, easy care, delicates), and whether the fabric produces lint (terry cloth, chenille), or collects lint (velveteen, corduroy).
Proper Use of Detergent
Add detergent as the wash basket fills with water, before you load clothes. Using too much detergent can be a common cause of laundry problems. Today’s detergents are formulated to be effective without highly visible sudsing. Be sure to carefully read and follow manufacturer’s recommendations for how much detergent to use in your wash. You can use less detergent if you have soft water,
a smaller load, or a lightly soiled load.
Loading the Washer
Troubleshooting Tips
Customer Service
Load dry items loosely, no higher than the top row of holes in the washer tub. When loading wet items make sure you set the load/water level high enough to allow the items to move freely. Water level should just cover the clothes. To add items after washer has started, push in Cycle Dial and submerge additional items next to the agitator. Close the lid and pull Cycle Dial out to restart.
■Do not wrap long items like sheets and pants around the agitator.
■Do not wash fabrics containing flammable materials (waxes, cleaning fluids, etc.).
■Water will fill and pump out of the washer and the timer will advance with the lid up, but as a safety precaution the washer will not agitate or spin.
