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 lid.
• Do not reach into the washer if the 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 Use and Care Guide or in published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.
• See Installation Instructions for grounding requirements.

WASHER USE

Understanding Washer Cycles
When the Cycle Control knob is set to a number and pulled out, the washer fills (to the selected load size) before agitation and timing start. The washer begins agitating immediately after filling; agitation occurs with the washer lid up or down.
During agitation, the agitator creates a continuous rollover action (on some models) that provides a thorough cleaning of the wash load.

After agitation starts, the Cycle Control knob turns clockwise until it points to an OFF area and the cycle ends.
NOTE: The washer pauses briefly throughout each cycle. These pauses are normal for washer operation.

Normal Washer Sounds

Your new washer may make sounds your old one didn’t. Because the sounds might be unfamiliar, you may be concerned about them. These sounds are normal.

During washing
When you select a small load size setting, your washer has a lower water level. This can cause a clicking sound from the upper part of the agitator.

During drain
If water is drained quickly from your washer (depending on your installation), you may hear air being pulled through the pump during the end of draining.

After drain and before spin
When the cycle changes from draining to spinning, you may hear gears engaging.

Starting Your Washer

Warning
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
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.

1. Measure detergent and pour it into the washer. If desired, add powdered or liquid color safe bleach. Add extra detergent for the Super Wash cycle.
   Drop a sorted load of clothes loosely into your washer.

   • Load evenly to maintain washer balance. Mix large and small items.
   • Items should move easily through the wash water. Overloading can cause poor cleaning.
   • To reduce wrinkling of permanent press clothes and some synthetic knits, use a large load size to provide more space (see step 4).

2. (OPTIONAL STEP) Pour measured liquid chlorine bleach into the liquid chlorine bleach dispenser (on some models). Bleach will be diluted automatically during the wash part of the cycle.

   • Never use more than 1 cup (250 mL) for a full load. Use less with a smaller load size.
   • Follow the manufacturer’s directions for safe use.
   • To avoid spilling, use a cup with a pouring spout. Do not let bleach splash, drip, or run down into the washer basket.
   • Use only liquid chlorine bleach in this dispenser.
     NOTE: On models without a bleach dispenser, see “Adding Liquid Chlorine Bleach.”

3. Close the washer lid.

4. Turn the LOAD SIZE selector (on some models) to the correct setting for your wash load and the type of fabric being washed.

   • Choose a load size that allows the load to move freely for best fabric care. See “Loading”.
   • You may change the load size selection after the washer has started filling by turning the selector to a different setting.

5. Set the TEMPERATURE selector (on some models) to the correct setting for the type of fabric and soils being washed. Use the warmest water safe for fabric. Follow garment label instructions.
   NOTE: On models with temperature selections in the Cycle Control knob, see “Cycle Time and Temperature Options” in the “Selecting A Cycle and Time” section.
   NOTE: In wash water temperatures colder than 70ºF
   (21ºC), detergents do not dissolve well. Soils can be difficult to remove. Some fabrics can retain wear wrinkles and have increased pilling (the formation of small lint-like balls on the surface of garments).

6. Push in the Cycle Control knob and turn it clockwise to the wash cycle you want. Reduce the wash time when using a small load size setting. See “Selecting a Cycle and Time.”
   Pull out the Cycle Control knob to start the washer. To stop or restart your washer

   • To stop the washer at any time, push in the Cycle Control knob.
   • To restart the washer, close the lid (if open) and pull out the Cycle Control knob.

7. (OPTIONAL STEP) If desired, add measured liquid fabric softener to the final rinse water. See “Adding Liquid Fabric Softener.”

Selecting a Cycle and Time

This section describes the available wash cycles and will help you make the best cycle selections for your wash loads. Each cycle is designed for different types of fabric and soil levels.

• The washer pauses briefly throughout each cycle. These pauses are normal. Refer to “Normal Washer Sounds” to learn more about the sounds you may hear during a wash cycle.
• Refer to “Understanding Washer Cycles” to learn what happens during a wash cycle.
  NOTE: This manual covers several different models. The washer you purchased will not have all of the cycles described.

Normal cycle
This cycle features high-speed agitation for maximum cleaning, and high-speed spin to shorten drying time. Select up to 14 minutes of wash time, depending on your model, to clean large loads of sturdily constructed fabrics that are heavily soiled. For lightly soiled cottons and linens, use the shortest time setting.

Super Wash – Select the 18-minute Super Wash feature to wash heavily soiled loads that need maximum soil removal. Use two times the recommended amount of detergent for this cycle.

Casual/Permanent Press cycle
This cycle features a cool-down rinse to minimize wrinkling of permanent press blends and synthetic fabrics. Select 6 to 10 minutes of wash time to clean lightly to moderately soiled loads.

Gentle cycle
This cycle features a series of brief agitations and soaks, followed by a short spin. Select up to 6 minutes of wash time to gently clean special-care items that are lightly or moderately soiled.
Delicates cycle
This cycle features a series of brief agitations and soaks, followed by a short spin. Use this cycle to clean delicate items and washable knits that are lightly to moderately soiled.

Cycle Time and Temperature Options

Some models have the water temperature included in the cycle selections of the Cycle Control knob.

Selecting different time and temperature combinations:
To select different wash time and temperature combinations, first select the water temperature (Hot, Warm or Cold), then turn to the new wash time. For example, for 14 minutes of wash time in the Normal cycle with Cold water:

1. Push in the Cycle Control knob, and turn it clockwise to the Cold setting.
2. Pull out the Cycle Control knob and allow washer to fill.
3. When the washer has filled, push in and turn the Cycle Control knob to 14 minutes of wash time.
4. Pull out the Cycle Control knob to start washer.

Rinse and Spin

When using extra detergent for heavily soiled clothes, or washing special-care items, you may find an extra rinse and spin is needed.

1. Push in the Cycle Control knob and turn it clockwise to any of the Rinse settings.
2. Pull out the Cycle Control knob. The washer fills to the selected load size, agitates, drains, and spins.

Drain and Spin

A drain and spin may help shorten drying times for some heavy fabrics or special-care items by removing excess water.

1. Push in the Cycle Control knob and turn it clockwise to any of the Spin settings.
2. Pull out the Cycle Control knob. The washer drains, then spins.

Adding Liquid Chlorine Bleach
Always measure liquid chlorine bleach. Do not guess. Never use more than 1 cup (250 mL) for a full load. Follow manufacturer’s directions for safe use. Use a cup with a pouring spout to avoid spilling.

1. Let the washer fill and begin agitating the load.
2. Add bleach to the wash cycle so it can be removed in the rinse cycle. Pour bleach around the agitator, not directly on the load.
   • Follow directions on the care labels. Do not use chlorine bleach on wool, silk, spandex, acetates, or some flame-retardant fabrics.
   • When soaking with chlorine bleach, add detergent to soak water.
     NOTE: Undiluted bleach will damage any fabric it touches. The damage appears as rips, holes, tears, or color loss and may not show up until several washings later.

Adding Liquid Fabric Softener

Always dilute fabric softener with ½ to 1 cup (125 to 250 mL) warm water. Undiluted fabric softener can stain fabrics.

• Add diluted fabric softener only in the final rinse.
• Fabric softener should not be mixed with other laundry products. Greasy stains can form. To remove greasy stains, wet the stain and rub with liquid detergent or a bar of soap. Rewash.
• Too much fabric softener can make some items (diapers and towels) nonabsorbent. If this happens, use less fabric softener, or do not use it every time.

Self-Cleaning Lint Filter
Your washer has a self-cleaning lint filter at the bottom of the basket. Wash and rinse water flow over the filter during agitation, separating the lint from the water. The lint spins out of the system during the spin part of the cycle.

If your washer drains into a tub, remove any lint collected in the tub or strainer.

WASHER CARE

Cleaning Your Washer

Cleaning the exterior
Use a soft, damp cloth or sponge to wipe up any spills such as detergent or bleach. Occasionally wipe the outside of your washer to keep it looking new.

Cleaning the interior
Clean your washer interior by mixing 1 cup (250 mL) of chlorine bleach and 2 cups (500 mL) of detergent. Pour this into your washer and run it through a complete cycle using hot water. Repeat this process if necessary.
NOTE : Remove any hard water deposits using only cleaners labeled as washer safe.

Water Inlet Hoses

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

Vacation, Storage, and Moving Care
Install and store your washer where it will not freeze. Because some water may stay in the hoses, freezing can damage your washer. If storing or moving your washer during freezing weather, winterize it.

Non-use or vacation care
Operate your washer only when you are at home. If you will be on vacation or not using your washer for an extended period of time, you should:

• Unplug washer or disconnect power.
• Turn off the water supply to the washer. This helps avoid accidental flooding (due to a water pressure surge) while you are away.

To winterize washer

1. Shut off both water faucets.
2. Disconnect and drain water inlet hoses.
3. Put 1 quart (1 L) of R.V.-type antifreeze in the basket.
4. Run washer on a drain and spin setting (see “Drain and Spin”) for about 30 seconds to mix the antifreeze and water.
5. Unplug washer or disconnect power.

To use washer again

1. Flush water pipes and hoses.
2. Reconnect water inlet hoses.
3. Turn on both water faucets.
4. Plug in washer or reconnect power.
5. Run the washer through a complete cycle with 1 cup (250 mL) of detergent to clean out antifreeze.

TROUBLESHOOTING

First try the solutions suggested here and possibly avoid the cost of a service call…
