HOW TO WASH

Operating Steps

Before using the washer for the first time, wipe the inside and outside with a damp cloth to remove any travel dust that has accumulated and we recommend operating a rinse cycle to rinse out your machine.

Be sure the hot and cold water faucets are turned on fully. Make sure that the power cord is plugged in and that the circuit is energized.

To familiarize you with a load of convenience we suggest "Your First Load" be typical queen-size bedding. This machine may be set to wash and dry automatically in any cycle. Single-size sets will dry quicker and king-size longer. Different types of materials may benefit from being shaken out once the dry cycle has run long enough (approximately 2 minutes) to allow the door to be opened. It is important the clothes are able to tumble freely to allow the drying process to occur. Dry times of over 100 minutes indicate an over load condition that has resulted in a loss of dry performance.

Your First Load

Use only 1 to 2 tablespoons of powder detergent or liquid equivalent. For cold/cold wash and rinse add detergent to dispenser "A"; for all other wash cycles, add detergent to dispenser "B". Refer to Wash Table for other additive options.

Set the wash timer to regular wash. Set the water selector to the desired wash rinse temperatures.

Set the heat and spin buttons to the out positions.

Set the dry timer to 80 minutes (This automatically includes a 12 minute cool down).

Place a set of queen-size sheets and pillow-cases in the drum loosely.

Push the on button.

Water will begin to enter the drum and the wash cycle will start. Wash time will be approximately 60 minutes, upon completion, the machine will automatically start to dry the load. When the dryer has completely finished it's cycle the machine will automatically stop.

After washing and drying are complete the hot and cold water faucets should be turned off and push the ON/ OFF switch. Wipe the inside off the washer door and rubber boot with a soft cloth or sponge to remove any remaining moisture.

Once the machine is started in the wash cycle, for your safety, the door is automatically locked and cannot be opened. Attempting to open the door may break the handle or the latch. If for some reason the door must be opened during the cycle, operate in the following way:

Press push button OFF.

Turn timer knob to spin position.

Press push button ON and wait until water is discharged.

Press push button OFF and wait at least 2 minutes for door lock to open.

To restart go back to "Operating Steps".

Pre-Wash

On more heavily soiled wash loads a pre-wash will help to obtain a better wash. It will disperse any superficial dirt and help loosen soil ready for the main wash. To pre-wash, select the main wash cycle you wish to use. Then turn the timer knob to the pre-wash setting immediately preceding the regular cycle. If pre-wash with detergent is required, the detergent must also be added in compartment "A" of detergent dispenser. After the pre-wash is completed the machine will automatically perform the regular wash.

NOTE: When you set a combined program of washing and tumble-drying, the cylinder must not be loaded with more than the required load size stated earlier in this manual.

Judge this load by the dry times achieved. Dry times of over 100 minutes indicate an overload condition that has resulted in a loss of dry performance.
