Washer USE

Efficient Detergent System

This washer has a specially designed valve that closes during the wash portion of the cycle so that 100% of the water and detergent mixture is used on the load. The Efficient Detergent System ensures that no water or detergent is wasted.

Dynamic Off-Balance Detection

This washer uses two sensors to detect load size and the amount of off-balance within the load. The suspension system and controls are specially designed to redistribute the load automatically.

Starting Your Washer

Using the Proper 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.

Use only HE High Efficiency detergent.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before operating this appliance.

The following is a guide to using your washer. Please refer to specific sections of this manual for more detailed information.

Do not store laundry products on the top surface of this washer. Vibration is normal during operation.

First Wash Cycle Without Laundry

Before washing clothes for the first time, if not completed during the final installation step, choose the Normal/Casual cycle and run it without clothes. Use only HE High Efficiency detergent. Use 1/2 the manufacturer’s recommended amount for a medium-size load. This initial cycle serves to ensure the interior is clean before washing clothes.

For All Wash Cycles

1.Open the washer door by pulling on the handle. Sort laundry according to color and type of fabric. Place a load of sorted clothes in the washer. Do not overload washer. Overloading can cause poor cleaning.

The washer can be fully loaded, but not tightly packed. Washer door should close easily.
