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.

Usingthe ProperDetergent

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.

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-sized
load. This initial cycle serves to ensure the interior is clean before
washing clothes.
