4. Safety Spin

If for any reason you open the washer lid when the
washer is in a spin or extract period, the operation will
immediately stop. This is for your personal safety. If
your washer does not stop, call your service technician
immediately. When the lid is closed, the operation will
automatically resume.

5. Unbalanced Spin

Load Compensator

Your new washer is designed to handle out-of-balance
loads without shutting down or interrupting the wash-
ing cycle.
For this reason, the cycle will always be completed. If
heavier fabrics in such out-of-balance loads should ever
contain excessive moisture at the completion of the
cycle, redistribute the clothes in the washer and reset
the control dial for the final spin period.

6. Overload Protector

Abuilt-in protector automatically shuts off the washer
motor in case of an overload. This can occur if:
• The load being washed is too heavy.
• Too many appliances are plugged into the line oper-
ating your washer.
• Alow voltage condition exists on the line.
• Lid is opened and closed repeatedly.
The overload protector permits the washer to start
again when the motor has cooled to a safe operating
temperature.
If the motor stops repeatedly, call your service technician.
1. After washing, leave the lid open until the interior is
dry.
2. Check hoses to be sure there are no kinks or knots.
3. Your washer should not be installed where tempera-
tures will go below freezing, as damage to the washer
could result.
4. To clean, occasionally wipe exterior with a clean damp
sponge or cloth. Do not use polish on plastic parts.
5. Lifetime lubrication is done at the factory, so your
washer never needs to be oiled or greased.
6.
Do not lay heavy or sharp objects on top of your
washer.
Care & Cleaning
7. The top of the washer should not be used for removing
stains from garments. Some stain removers, such as
rust remover, will mar the finish.
8. Remove pins, buckles or other sharp objects from
clothes to prevent scratching interior parts.
9. Clothes should not be stored in washer.
10. Bleach, detergent, solvents, etc. spilled on the top of
your washer that are allowed to remain will remove the
glossy finish. Remove all spills with a damp, soft cloth.
11. If you close your home for the winter, have a service
technician drain the washer. Unplug cord from electri-
cal outlet and disconnect hoses from faucets.
