WASHER SAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.
All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word “DANGER” or “WARNING.”
These words mean:

DANGER
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t immediately follow instructions.
WARNING
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow instructions.
All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the washer, follow basic precautions, including the following:

  • Read all instructions before using the washer.
  • Do not wash articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, other flammable, or explosive substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
  • Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable, or explosive substances to the wash water. These substances give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
  • Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for 2 weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period, before using the washing machine,  turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.
  • Do not allow children to play on or in the washer. Close supervision of children is necessary when the washer is used near children.
  • Before the washer is removed from service or discarded, remove the door or lid.
  • Do not reach into the washer if the drum, tub or agitator is moving.
  • Do not install or store the washer where it will be exposed to the weather.
  • Do not tamper with controls.
  • Do not repair or replace any part of the washer or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in this manual or in published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.
  • See “Electrical Requirements” for grounding instructions.

Electrical Requirements
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

  • A 120 V, 60 Hz AC only, 15 A or 20 A, fused electrical supply is required. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this washer be provided.

  • This washer is equipped with a power supply cord having a 3 prong grounding plug.

  • To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating, 3 prong, grounding-type outlet, grounded in accordance with local codes and ordinances.
    If a mating outlet is not available, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have the properly grounded outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

  • If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the ground path is adequate.

  • Do not ground to a gas pipe.

  • Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure the washer is properly grounded.

  • Do not have a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

WASHER CARE

Cleaning Your Washer
Cleaning the Door Seal/Bellow

  1. Open the washer door and remove any clothing or items from the washer.

  2. Inspect inner glass door. If debris is present, wipe off debris using damp cloth.

  3. Inspect the colored seal/bellow between the door opening and the drum for stained areas. Pull back the seal/bellow to inspect all areas under the seal/bellow and to check for foreign objects.

  4. 4. If stained areas are found, wipe down these areas of the seal/bellow using the procedure that follows:
    a) Mix a dilute solution, using 3/4 cup (177 mL) of liquid chlorine bleach, and 1 gallon (3.8 L) of warm tap water.
    b) Wipe the seal/bellow area with the dilute solution, using a damp cloth.
    c) Let stand 5 minutes.
    d) Wipe down area thoroughly with a dry cloth and let the washer interior air dry with door open.

IMPORTANT:

  • Wear rubber gloves when cleaning for prolonged periods.
  • Refer to the bleach manufacturer’s instructions for proper use.

Washer Maintenance Procedure
This washer has a special cycle that uses higher water volumes in combination with liquid chlorine bleach to thoroughly clean the inside of the washer.
NOTES:

  • Read these instructions completely before beginning the cleaning process.
  • If necessary, the cleaning cycle may be interrupted by pressing the COLD keypad twice. However, this will not immediately stop the cycle. The washer will continue with several rinse and drain steps to ensure that all remaining bleach is rinsed from the  washer.

Begin procedure

  1. Open the washer door and remove any clothing or items from the washer.

  2. Use liquid chlorine bleach:
    Open the dispenser drawer and immediately add 2/3 cup (160 mL) of liquid chlorine bleach to the bleach compartment.
    NOTE: Do not add any detergent to this cycle. Use of more than 2/3 cup (160 mL) of bleach will cause product damage over time.

  3. Close the washer door and the dispenser drawer.

  4. To start the Clean Washer cycle, first enter “Start Operating Set-up.” Then press and hold COLD for 1 second. With the entire display flashing, press COLORS/DELICATES.
    NOTE: The drum will rotate, then the door will unlock, lock again, and then the cycle will continue.
    ■ The washer will not fill, but the drum will rotate while the washer runs a short sensing cycle. This will take approximately 3 minutes.

  5. The cycle will determine whether clothing or other items are in the washer.
    a) If no items are detected in the washer, it will proceed to Step 7.
    b) If any items are detected in the washer, “rL” or “F-34” will be displayed. Then the door will unlock.
    ■ Press COLD to cancel the failure code. Then repeat steps 1, 3, and 4 to start the cycle again.

  6. Once the cycle has begun, allow the cycle to complete.

  7. After the cycle is complete, leave the door open slightly to allow for better ventilation and drying of washer interior.

Always do the following to maintain washer freshness:

  • Use only “HE” High Efficiency detergent.
  • Leave the door slightly open after each cycle to allow for better ventilation and drying of washer interior.
  • Clean the washer monthly using the Washer Maintenance Procedure and 2/3 cup (160 mL) of liquid chlorine bleach.
  • If the procedure does not sufficiently improve the washer freshness, please evaluate your installation and usage conditions for other causes.

Cleaning the exterior
Use a soft damp cloth or sponge to wipe up any spills.
Occasionally wipe the outside of your washer to keep it looking new. Use mild soap and water. Do not use abrasive products.

Cleaning the dispenser drawer
The dispenser drawer is removable for easy cleaning.

  1. Unlock the dispenser drawer by pressing the Release Lever. Remove the drawer.

  2. Remove the inserts (the siphon from the softener and bleach compartments).

  3. Wash the parts under running water.
    NOTE: Do not wash components in the dishwasher.

  4. Re-install the inserts and return the dispenser to the drawer.

Water Inlet Hoses
Replace water inlet hoses after 5 years of use to reduce the risk of hose failure. Periodically inspect and replace water inlet hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts, wear, or leaks are found.
When replacing your water inlet hoses, mark the date of replacement on the label with a permanent marker.
