Starting Your Washer

Fire Hazard

Do not dry anything that has ever had any type of oil on it (including cooking oils).

Doing so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Electrically ground this appliance.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

1.Measure detergent and pour it into the washer. If desired, add powder or liquid color safe bleach. Add extra detergent for the Super Wash/Heavy cycle.

Drop a sorted load of clothes loosely into your washer.

■Load evenly to maintain washer balance. Mix large and small items.

■Items should move easily through the wash water. Overloading can cause poor cleaning.

■To reduce wrinkling of permanent press clothes and some synthetic knits, use a large load size to provide more space (see Step 5).

2.(OPTIONAL) Pour measured liquid chlorine bleach into the liquid chlorine bleach dispenser. Bleach will be diluted automatically during the wash part of the cycle.

■Never use more than 1 cup (250 mL) for a full load. Use less with a smaller load size.

■Follow the manufacturer’s directions for safe use.

■To avoid spilling, use a cup with a pouring spout. Do not let bleach splash, drip, or run down into the washer basket.

■Use only liquid chlorine bleach in this dispenser.

3.(OPTIONAL) Pour measured liquid fabric softener into the liquid fabric softener dispenser. Softener is added automatically during the rinse portion of the cycle.

Dilute liquid fabric softener by filling the dispenser with warm water until liquid reaches the crossbar in the opening.

■Do not spill or drip any fabric softener on the clothes.

■Use only liquid fabric softener in this dispenser.

4.Close the washer lid. Washer will not agitate or spin with the lid open.

5.Turn the LOAD SIZE selector to the correct setting for your wash load and the type of fabric being washed.

■Choose a load size that allows the load to move freely for best fabric care. See “Loading”.

■You may change the load size selection after the washer has started filling by turning the selector to a different setting.

6.Select a wash temperature with the WASH TEMPERATURE selector. The selections are color-coordinated with the cycles on the Cycle Control knob so you can select a water temperature that matches the type of fabric and soils being washed. Follow garment label instructions.
