OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Fire Hazard

• Never place items in the washer that are dampened with gasoline or other flammable fluids.
• No washer can completely remove oil.
• 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: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS, located in your appliance’s Owner’s Manual, before operating this appliance.

STEP 1. ADD HE DETERGENT

• Designed to use only HE (High Efficiency) detergents.

STEP 2. LOAD CLOTHES

• For best results, load garments in loose heaps evenly around the basket wall.

NOTE: See ADDING LAUNDRY PRODUCTS (below) for more information on adding HE detergent, fabric softener, and/or bleach.

STEP 3. PRESS POWER TO TURN ON THE WASHER.

STEP 4. SELECT THE DESIRED CYCLE FOR YOUR LOAD*

STEP 5. ADJUST CYCLE SETTINGS, IF DESIRED.

STEP 6. SELECT ADDITIONAL OPTIONS*

STEP 7. PRESS AND HOLD START/PAUSE TO BEGIN CYCLE.

NOTE: Start button must be held for 1 second to start cycle. Once the status lights are illuminated, release the start button.

Not all cycles, settings or options are available with all models.

ADDING LAUNDRY PRODUCTS

IMPORTANT: Using non-HE detergent will likely result in longer cycle times and reduced rinsing performance. It may also result in component malfunction and, over time, the buildup of mold or mildew. HE detergents should be low-sudsing and quick-dispersing to produce the right amount of suds for the best performance.

ADDING HE DETERGENT TO THE BASKET
Add a measured amount of HE detergent or single-dose laundry packets into the basket. If using oxi-type boosters, color-safe bleach, or fabric softener crystals, add to the bottom of the washer basket before adding clothes.
NOTE: Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to determine the amount of laundry products to use.

ADDING LIQUID CHLORINE BLEACH

• Do not overfill, dilute, or use more than 1 cup (236 mL). Do not use color-safe bleach or oxi products in the same cycle with liquid chlorine bleach.

ADDING LIQUID FABRIC SOFTENER MANUALLY

• Select the Fabric Softener option on the control panel before starting a cycle. During the final rinse, wait until the washer has completed filling, press the Start/Pause button to pause the washer. Lift the lid and add the recommended amount of liquid fabric softener. Close the lid, press and hold the Start/Pause button to resume the cycle.

CONTROL PANEL AND FEATURES

Appearance may vary depending on the model.

Cycle Knob

• Turn the knob to select the desired cycle.

Presione Para Iniciar (Hold to Start)

• Press and hold the Start/Pause button for 1 second until all status lights are illuminated, then release to start the cycle. Press during a cycle to pause the cycle and unlock the lid.

NOTE: If the machine is spinning it may take longer to unlock the lid.

Cycle Modifiers (Not all modifiers are available on all cycles)
TEMP
Press to modify the cycle’s available temperatures (Ambiente (Tap Cold), Frίa (Cold), Templada (Cool), Tibia (Warm), or Caliente (Hot)).
NOTE: Pressing Temp will toggle through available temperature options. When no lights in the temperature column are illuminated the selected temperature is Ambiente (Tap Cold).

Enjuague (Rinse Options)

• Press to modify the cycle’s available rinse options. Press once for Suavizante (Fabric Softener), twice for Enjuague Extra (Extra Rinse) and three times to activate both.

Suavizante (Fabric Softener)

• Select this option to let the machine know when you have added liquid fabric softener.

Enjuague Extra (Extra Rinse)

• Select this option to add a second rinse.

2-IN-1 REMOVABLE AGITATOR

• Keep it in (Agitator mode) when you want increased mechanical action to remove and rinse away loose soils. You can use this mode anytime but it’s especially suited for everyday mixed loads.
• Take it out (Impeller mode) when you need added space and/or a thorough, gentle clean. You can use this mode anytime but it’s especially suited for bulky items such as bedding and delicate items such as undergarments.

USING THE REMOVABLE AGITATOR

• Squeeze handle, rotate counter-clockwise, and pull up to remove.
• Push down and rotate clockwise to re-install. The agitator should lock into place.
• For detailed installation instruction and maintenance information, winter storage, and transportation tips, please see the Owner’s Manual included with your machine.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT CYCLE

• A cycle guide for your washer can be found in the Owner’s Manual. The document will help identify which cycle to choose for various load types as well as the default cycle options. For example, we recommend using the NORMAL cycle with Warm water for cotton, linens and mixed-garment loads.

MORE WATER WHEN YOU WANT IT

AUTO-SENSING AND DEEP WATER

• The washer will adjust the water level to the optimal amount for a High-Efficiency wash of the detected load size.
• Press Deep Water to automatically add more water to your wash cycle.
• It is recommended to use the BULKY ITEMS cycle with the Deep Water option for loads where the maximum water level is desired.
• Expect longer cycle times due to extended fill duration when using the Deep Water option.

Opciones (Options)

• Press to add or remove options for each cycle. Press once to add a Remojo 30 min (PreSoak), twice to activate Llenado Profundo (Deep Water) and three times for both.

Llenado Profundo (Deep Water)

• On available cycles, use this option to reduce the likelihood of white residue on dark clothing.

Remojo 30 Min (PreSoak)

• Touch to add a 30-minute presoak period to help loosen tough stains. The washer will fill, pause to soak, and then begin the selected cycle.

Cascada de Agua (Faucet)
Press to access an instant water stream. Use this feature to pretreat clothes and other items right in the washer. You can also use this feature to manually add water to the machine as desired.
NOTE: The washer will drain at the beginning of the cycle if a large volume of water is detected to ensure the machine can correctly sense the load size.

NOTE: If the washer detects an out-of-balance condition it may pause and attempt to correct the situation. During this time the Sense and Wash status indicators will both briefly illuminate.

WARNING: Do not wash water-resistant or water-repellant-type clothing. Failure to closely follow these instructions may result in an abnormal vibrating and out-of-balance condition that could result in physical injury, property damage, and/or appliance damage.

PRE-TREATING BEFORE A WASH CYCLE

• Press the Faucet button once to turn on and press it again to turn off.
• The faucet will automatically shut off after 10 minutes or when the max water level is reached.
• Water will automatically drain if the water level becomes too high. Water will also drain after 10 minutes if the lid is left open or 3 hours if the lid is left closed.

CLEANING WITH LESS WATER

The washer has been designed and optimized to provide a thorough cleaning using less water to conserve energy and resources.
As the washer dampens and moves the load, the level of the items will settle in the basket. This is normal and does not indicate that more items should be added.
IMPORTANT: You will not see a full basket of water as with older, less efficient washing machines. It is normal for some of the load to be above the water line.
