IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WWAARRNNIINNGG

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using this appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following. ·Before use, the washer must be properly installed as described in this manual. ·Do not wash articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or 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 two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period, before using the washer, 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 to prevent children from climbing inside.

·Do not install or store the washer where it will be exposed to the weather or freezing temperatures. ·Do not tamper with controls. ·Do not repair or replace any part of the washer or attempt any servicing other than as described in this manual. We strongly recommend that any service be performed by a qualified technician. ·See Installation Instructions for grounding requirements. ·ALWAYS follow the fabric care instructions supplied by the garment manufacturer. ·Do not place items exposed to cooking oil in your washer. Items contaminated with cooking oils may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch fire. ·Use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static only as recommended by the manufacturer. ·This washer is not designed for maritime use or for mobile installations such as in RVs, aircraft, etc. ·Turn OFF the water faucets and unplug the washer if the machine is to be left for an extended period of time, such as during vacations. ·Packaging material can be dangerous for children.

CONNECTING THE WATER LINES

·IMPORTANT: Use new hoses when installing the washer. Do NOT reuse old hoses.
·IMPORTANT: Use ONLY the inlet hoses provided with this washer. Aftermarket hoses are not guaranteed to fit or function correctly. Other hoses may not tighten correctly and could cause leaks. Subsequent damage to product or property will not be covered under the terms of the product warranty.
·Water supply pressure must be between 14.5 psi and 116 psi (100~800 kPa). If the water supply pressure is more than 116 psi, a pressure reducing valve must be installed.
·Periodically check the hose for cracks, leaks, and wear, and replace the hose if necessary. ·Make sure that the water lines are not stretched, pinched, crushed, or kinked. ·The washer should never be installed or stored in a location subject to freezing temperatures. Damage to the water lines and internal mechanisms of the washer can result. If the washer was exposed to freezing temperatures prior to installation, allow it to stand at room temperature for several hours before use and check for leaks prior to operation.

4. Attach the (red) hot water line to the hot water inlet on the back of the washer. Attach the (blue) cold water line to the cold water inlet on the back of the washer. Tighten the fittings securely.
NOTE: When installing the hoses onto the water inlet valves, be careful not to cross-thread the hose fittings. DO NOT overtighten the hoses; this could cause damage to internal components, the valve or the hose gasket. Overtightening could result in property damage from leaks.

2. Connect the water supply hoses to the HOT and COLD water faucets tightly by hand and then tighten another turn with pliers. 9

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS CONNECTING THE DRAIN HOSE

·The drain hose should always be properly secured. Failure to properly secure the drain hose can result in flooding and property damage. ·Do not install the end of the drain hose higher than 96 in. (243.8 cm) above the bottom of the washer. ·The drain must be installed in accordance with any applicable local codes and regulations. ·Make sure that the drain hose is not stretched, pinched, crushed, or kinked.

NOTE: A drain hose extension kit is available if the drain hose is not long enough. Do not extend the drain hose more than 6 feet, as this will cause poor draining, which will result in poor wash and spin performance.

LEVELING THE WASHER
The drum of your new washer spins at very high speeds. To minimize vibration, noise, and unwanted movement, the floor must be a level, solid surface. NOTE: Adjust the leveling feet only as far as necessary to level the washer. Extending the leveling feet more than necessary can cause the washer to vibrate. NOTE: Before installing the washer, make sure that the floor is clean, dry and free of dust, dirt, water and oils so the washer feet cannot slide easily. Leveling feet that move or slide on the floor can contribute to excess vibration and noise due to poor contact with the floor. See INSTALLATION OF NON-SKID PADS for more information. NOTE: If a drip pan must be used, make sure to follow the instructions provided with the drip pan and make sure the leveling feet are adjusted for firm and even contact with the pan. Use of drip pans and failure to properly level the machine may result in increased vibration and noise during operation. All four leveling feet must rest solidly on the floor. Rock the washer from corner to corner to make sure that all four leveling feet are in firm and even contact with the floor.
Level

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Tighten all 4 lock nuts securely using the wrench.
3. Once the washer is level from side to side and front to back, use the adjusting wrench to tighten all four lock nuts securely to prevent the legs from getting out of adjustment during operation. Make sure that all four leveling feet are in firm contact with the floor.
NOTE: To make sure that the washer is properly level, run the washer with a test load: place a medium-sized load of laundry in the machine. Then, press POWER, select RINSE & SPIN, and press the START/PAUSE button. See the following sections for additional information on cycle selection and operation. Verify that the washer does not rock or vibrate excessively during the spin cycle. If the washer vibrates or shakes, adjust the leveling feet, while the washer is spinning, until the vibrations are reduced.

Leveling Feet Leveling Feet
1. Position the washer in its final location, taking special care not to pinch, strain, or crush the water and drain lines. Place a level across the top of the washer.

I(NopStTioAnLaLlA) TION OF NON-SKID PADS
Some floor surfaces are too slippery to prevent the washer from moving on the floor during heavily unbalanced loads. While it is normal for an occasional load to be out of balance, excess noise and vibration can result from the washer moving out of position. If these conditions are encountered, follow the instructions below for installation of the non-skid pads. These pads will help prevent the washer from moving during heavy, out of balance conditions, thereby reducing noise and vibration.
Non-skid pads This side up

Stick adhesive side to floor Remove backing

Place the pads under both front feet.

Lower

2. Loosen the locknuts on all four leveling feet with the wrench until you can adjust the feet (wrench appearance may vary). Use the wrench to turn the feet clockwise to raise the washer, and counterclockwise to lower the washer. Using a level, adjust the feet until the washer is level from side to side and front to back. Make sure that all four feet are in firm contact with the floor.

NOTE: If you are installing the washer on the optional pedestal, the washer leveling feet should be fully retracted. Use the leveling feet on the pedestal to level the washer.

HOW TO USE SORTING WASH LOADS

Fabric Care Labels
Many articles of clothing include a fabric care label. Using the chart below, adjust the cycle and option selections to care for your clothing according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.
Grouping Similar Items
For the best washing results, and to reduce the possibility of damage to clothing, care should be taken to sort the clothing into loads that are made up of similar items. Mixing different fabric types and/or soil levels can result in poor wash performance, color transfer or discoloration, fabric damage or linting. Fabrics should be sorted into groups as described below. Colors Sort articles by color. Wash dark clothes together in a separate load from light colors or whites. Mixing dark clothes with light clothes can result in dye transfer or discoloration of the lighter clothes. Soil Level Wash heavily soiled clothing together. Washing lightly soiled clothing in the same load with heavily soiled clothing could result in poor wash performance for the lightly soiled clothing. Fabric Type Delicate articles should not be mixed with heavier or sturdier fabric types. Washing delicates in a load with heavy fabrics can result in damage to the more delicate fabrics. Washing heavier fabrics in a delicate load can result in poor wash performance for the heavier fabrics and possible damage to the delicates. Lint Type Some fabrics attract and bind lint to them while others give off lint in the laundry process. Avoid mixing these lint collectors and lint producers in the same load. Mixing these fabrics will result in pilling and linting on the lint collectors. (For example, lint collector ­ knit sweater; lint producer ­ terrycloth towels.)

Loading the Washer
·Check all pockets to make sure that they are empty. Items such as clips, matches, pens, coins, and keys can damage both your washer and your clothes. ·Close zippers, hooks, and drawstrings to prevent these items from snagging or tangling on other clothes. ·Pretreat heavily stained areas for best results. ·Combine large and small items in a load. Load large items first. ·Large items should not be more than half of the total wash load. ·The drum should not be tightly packed with items. The door of the washer should close easily. ·To prevent an out-of-balance load, do not wash single items. Add one or two similar items to the load. Large, bulky items, such as a blanket, comforter, or bedspread, should be washed individually. ·Do not wash or spin waterproof items, such as rain coats, sleeping bags, etc. · When unloading the washer, check under the door seal for small items. NOTE: Make sure that the door seal area is clear when closing the door. Overloading the washer can cause items to get caught between the door and the seal. This can damage both the items and the seal.

ABOUT THE DISPENSER DRAWER
The automatic dispenser consists of four compartments which hold:
·Liquid chlorine bleach. ·Liquid fabric softener. ·Liquid or powdered detergent for prewash. ·Liquid or powdered detergent and color-safe bleach
for main wash.

Liquid Chlorine Bleach Compartment

Liquid Fabric Softener Compartment

HOW TO USE
Liquid Detergent Cup

Prewash Detergent Compartment

Pre-Wash Detergent Compartment
Add liquid or powdered detergent to this compartment when using the Pre-Wash option. Always use HighEfficiency (HE) detergent with your washing machine. The amount of detergent added for the Pre-Wash option should be ½ the amount recommended for the main wash cycle. For example, if the main wash cycle requires ½ measure of detergent, add ¼ measure to the Pre-Wash compartment. NOTE: If using liquid detergent for the main wash when using the Pre-Wash option, the liquid detergent cup accessory must be used in the main wash dispenser. This will prevent the main wash liquid detergent from being dispensed immediately.
Main Wash Detergent Compartment
This compartment holds laundry detergent for the main wash cycle. The detergent is added to the load at the beginning of the cycle. Always use High- Efficiency (HE) detergent with your washing machine. Either powdered or liquid detergent may be used. Never exceed the manufacturer’s recommendations when adding detergent. Using too much detergent can result in detergent buildup in clothing and the washer. NOTE: Liquid or powdered color-safe bleach may be added to the main wash compartment with detergent of the same type. DO NOT add liquid or powdered color-safe bleach to the bleach dispenser. DO NOT mix liquid and powdered cleaning agents within the same compartment.

Main Wash Detergent Compartment
Liquid Bleach Compartment
This compartment holds liquid chlorine bleach, which is dispensed automatically at the proper time during the wash cycle. ·Do not add powdered or liquid color-safe bleach to this compartment. The bleach compartment is designed
to dispense liquid chlorine bleach only. Powdered or liquid color-safe bleach will not dispense properly. ·Always follow the manufacturer’s recommendations when adding bleach. Do not exceed the maximum fill line since this can cause the bleach to be dispensed immediately, causing damage to fabrics. Using too much bleach can damage fabrics. ·Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly onto the load or into the drum. Fabric damage can occur.
Fabric Softener Compartment
This compartment holds liquid fabric softener, which is automatically dispensed during the final rinse cycle. Never exceed the manufacturer’s recommendations when adding softener. Using too much fabric softener can result in buildup in clothing and the washer. Either powdered or liquid fabric softener may be used. ·Always follow the manufacturer’s recommendations when adding fabric softener. Do not exceed the
maximum fill line. Using too much fabric softener may stain clothes. ·Dilute concentrated fabric softeners with warm water. Do not exceed the maximum fill line. ·Never pour fabric softener directly onto the load or into the drum.

HOW TO USE

DETERGENT AND DISPENSER USE
A Word About Detergents
High-Efficiency (HE) detergents produce fewer suds, dissolve more efficiently to improve washing and rinsing performance, and help to keep the interior of your washer clean. Using detergent that is not HE may cause oversudsing and unsatisfactory performance which could result in error codes, cycle failure, and machine damage.

Maximum

Normal Load Amount

Liquid Detergent

Powdered Detergent

For proper wash performance, always measure the detergent using the measurements provided by the detergent manufacturer.

The normal amount of HE detergent needed, for average loads, is less than ½ of the recommended maximum. Use less detergent for soft water, light soil or smaller loads. Never use more than the maximum amount recommended by the detergent manufacturer.

Designed to use only High-Efficiency (HE) detergent
IMPORTANT: Your washing machine is designed for use with only High-Efficiency (HE) detergents. HE detergents are formulated specifically for front-load washers and contain suds-reducing agents. Always look for the HE symbol when purchasing detergent.

IMPORTANT: Not all detergents are the same. Pay careful attention to the amount of detergent used to avoid oversudsing, poor rinsing and detergent buildup in clothing, and residue buildup that can contribute to odors in the machine. NEVER use a cup or scoop other than the one supplied by the manufacturer of the detergent you are using. Never use more than the maximum amount of detergent recommended by the manufacturer. Always measure the detergent amount. While HE detergents are designed for this type of washing machine, be careful when measuring the detergent. For most normal loads, no more than ¼ to ½ of cap or scoop of HE detergent should be used. NOTE: Extra care must be exercised when using 2X and 3X concentrated detergents because even a little bit extra can contribute to the problems mentioned above. NOTE: Detergents designated as HE compatible may not provide optimal results.

Detergent Amount
Use the detergent amount indicator to help determine the correct amount of detergent to use. Bars light up to indicate the size of the dry load sensed by the washer control. Follow the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations for the amount of detergent based on load size. The indicator will not be accurate if any wet clothes are placed in the washer. NOTE: The detergent amount indicator icon does not represent an actual detergent measuring cup or cap.
Filling the Dispenser
To add detergent, bleach, and fabric softener to the automatic dispenser: 1 Open the dispenser drawer. 2 Load the laundry products into the
appropriate compartments. 3 Close the drawer before starting the cycle.
NOTE: It is normal for a small amount of water to remain in the bleach and softener compartments at the end of the cycle. IMPORTANT: Do not place or store laundry products, such as detergent, bleach, or liquid fabric softener, on top of your washer or dryer. Wipe up any spills immediately. These products can damage the finish and controls.
1 bar = small load
2 bars = medium load
3 bars = large load
4 bars = extra-large load

HOW TO USE TIME AND STATUS DISPLAY The time and status display shows the estimated time remaining, cycle progress, and door lock status.

E

C

D

B

A

A ESTIMATED TIME REMAINING When the START/PAUSE button is pressed, the washer will automatically detect the load size for cycles that use load sensing. The control will then optimize the wash and rinse times, based on the selected cycle, modifiers and options. When the load size has been determined, the display will change from dashes (- – -) to the estimated time for that cycle. For non-load sensing cycles, the estimated time will display when the cycle is selected. NOTE: ·The time shown is only an estimate. For example, the time displayed may pause for a period of time while the machine is heating the water or balancing the load. Under certain conditions, the machine can pause for extended periods of time. ·Estimated time is based on normal operating conditions. Several external factors (load size, room temperature, incoming water temperature, etc.) also affect the length of estimated time vs. actual time.
B LOAD-SENSING INDICATOR At the beginning of cycles that use the load sensing feature, the LOAD SENSING light will blink while the load size is being measured. Once the size has been determined, the control adjusts the cycle for optimum performance. Estimated time remaining will not display until the load size has been determined, and may be different for each load.

C CYCLE STATUS INDICATOR These status LEDs illuminate to indicate which stage of the cycle is currently running. A blinking light indicates the active stage of the cycle. When that stage is complete, the light will remain steady.
D DOOR LOCK INDICATOR Indicates that the door is locked. The washer door will lock while the washer is operating. The door can be unlocked by pressing START/PAUSE to pause the washer. NOTE: ·If the temperature in the washer is too high, the door cannot be unlocked until the washer has cooled. ·If the water level is too high, the door will not unlock. To drain the water, press POWER, then press the SPIN SPEED button without selecting a cycle. Press START/PAUSE and the water will drain and the clothes will spin out. Do not try to force the door open, as it will damage the door.
E DETERGENT AMOUNT INDICATOR The detergent amount indicator displays the suggested amount of detergent for the load. Fewer lit bars indicate a smaller load; therefore, less detergent should be used (refer to page 18).

19

HOW TO USE CYCLE MODIFIER BUTTONS
Each cycle has default settings that are selected automatically. You may also customize these settings using the cycle modifier buttons. Press the button for the desired modifier until the indicator light for the desired value is lit. The washer automatically adjusts the water level for the type and size of wash load for best results and maximum efficiency. Due to the high-efficiency nature of this product, water levels may be much lower than expected. This is normal operation and cleaning/ rinsing performance will not be compromised.

NOTE: To protect your garments, not every wash/rinse temperature, spin speed, soil level, or option is available with every cycle. A chime will sound and the LED will not light if a selection is not allowed (refer to pages 14 and 15).

A WASH/RINSE Wash/Rinse selects the wash and rinse temperature combination for the selected cycle. Press the Wash/ Rinse button until the indicator light for the desired setting is lit. ·Your washer features a heating element to boost the hot water temperature for Extra Hot settings. This provides improved wash performance at normal water heater settings. ·Select the water temperature suitable for the type of load you are washing. Follow the garment fabric care labels for best results. · Warm rinses are regulated at approximately 86°F (30°C). ·Warm rinses leave the clothes dryer than cold rinses, but will result in increased energy consumption and greater wrinkling of clothes. ·Cold rinses use less energy. The actual rinse temperature depends on the temperature of the cold water at the faucet.

B SPIN SPEED Higher spin speeds extract more water from clothes, reducing drying time and saving energy.
Press the SPIN SPEED button until the desired speed is selected. Some fabrics, such as delicates, require a slower spin speed. To protect your clothing, not all spin speeds are available for all cycles. The Drain & Spin cycle: 1. Press the POWER button to turn ON the washer. 2. Press the SPIN SPEED button to select the desired
spin speed. For drain only, select the NO SPIN option. 3. Press the START/PAUSE button. The water will drain and the clothes will tumble before the spin routine begins. C SOIL LEVEL Adjusting the soil level setting will modify the cycle to allow more time for heavily soiled clothes or less time for lightly soiled clothes. Press the SOIL LEVEL button until the desired soil level is selected.
D CHIME Press repeatedly to adjust the volume of the chime and keypad tones. You may turn the end-of-cycle chime and keypad tones ON or OFF with the CHIME button.

CAUTION: The door may be very warm during steam cycles. This is normal. Do not attempt to override the door lock mechanism or reach into the washer during a steam cycle. Steam can cause severe burns. IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT STEAM CYCLES: ·Steam may not be visible during the steam cycles. This
is normal. ·Do not use steam with delicate fabrics such as wool, silk, or easily discolored fabrics.

HOW TO USE
Using the STEAM REFRESH Cycle
STEAM REFRESH uses the power of steam alone to help reduce wrinkles and odor in fabrics. Use it to reduce wrinkles in clothes that have been stored for an extended period of time or that have been left in the drum for too long; and reduce odor in clothes that have been worn in a smoky area. Steam also makes ironing easier.
To use the STEAM REFRESH cycle:
1 Load up to five garments and close the door.
2 Turn ON the washer and turn the cycle selector knob to select the STEAM REFRESH cycle. The number three (default setting) will appear in the display to indicate three garments.
3 Press the ADD STEAM button until the display number matches the number of garments loaded. NOTE: If there is any moisture inside the drum from a previous wash cycle, wipe the drum dry with a towel before adding clothing. No other options need to be selected.
4 Press the START/PAUSE button to start the cycle.
After the STEAM REFRESH cycle is complete, the washer will tumble the clothes for up to 30 minutes to prevent clothes from becoming wrinkled again. The clothing may feel slightly damp after removing from the STEAM REFRESH cycle. If desired, hang clothes on a hanger for a few minutes before wearing. ·The STEAM REFRESH cycle is not recommended for use
with 100% cotton clothing. Best results are achieved with 70/30 cotton/polyblend fabrics. ·Remove stains from clothing before using the STEAM REFRESH cycle; the high heat could cause stains to set in permanently. ·Do not use STEAM REFRESH with the following Items: wool, blankets, leather jackets, silk, wet clothes, lingerie, foam products, or electric blankets. ·Best results are achieved when articles are of similar size and fabric type. Do not overload the washer.

CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read and follow this
entire Use & Care Guide, including the Important Safety Instructions, before operating this washer. · Unplug the washer before cleaning to avoid the risk of electric shock. Failure to follow this warning can
cause serious injury, fire, electric shock, or death. · Never use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or solvents to clean the washer. They will damage the finish.

REGULAR CLEANING Cleaning the Exterior
Proper care of your washer can extend its life. The outside of the machine can be cleaned with warm water and a mild, nonabrasive household detergent. Immediately wipe off any spills with a soft, damp cloth. IMPORTANT: Do not use solvents, cleaning alcohols, or similar products. Never use steel wool or abrasive cleaners because they can damage the surface.
Care and Cleaning of the Interior
Use a towel or soft cloth to wipe around the washer door opening, door seal, and door glass. These areas should be kept clean to ensure a watertight seal. Be sure to wipe under the inside rubber seal to remove any moisture or soil. Always remove items from the washer as soon as the cycle is complete. Leaving damp items in the washer can cause wrinkling, color transfer, and odor. Run the CLEAN WASHER cycle once a month, or more often if needed, to remove detergent buildup and other residue.
Clean Washer
1 Remove any clothing in the drum. 2 Open the dispenser drawer. 3 Add liquid chlorine bleach or another drum
cleaner designed specifically for cleaning front load washers. – If using liquid chlorine bleach Add liquid chlorine bleach to the bleach compartment of the drawer. (NOTE : Do not exceed the maximum fill line and do not pour undiluted liquid bleach directly into the wash drum.) – If using powder cleaner Remove the liquid detergent cup and add powder cleaner to the main wash compartment of the dispenser drawer. – If using tablet cleaner Add tablet cleaner to the wash drum directly.
NOTE: ·Do not add tablet cleaner to the dispenser drawer. ·Do not add any laundry detergent or fabric softener to
the drawer when using CLEAN WASHER .

Door Seal and Glass Cleaning
Due to the location and nature of the door seal, some detergent and soil residue may build up on the door glass and seal. Periodic cleaning with a bleach solution can help remove buildup and stains, and can help sanitize the seal to prevent odors. NOTE: Wear rubber gloves and eye protection while performing the following procedure:
1 Dilute ¾ cup (177 ml) liquid chlorine bleach in 1 gallon (3.8 L) of warm/hot water.
2 Use this solution to wipe down all surfaces of the gasket and door glass to remove any deposits. Be sure to fold back the lip of the gasket to get under the inner edge where residue can build up.)

CARE AND CLEANING MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the Water Inlet Filters
If the washer does not fill properly, an error message will show on the display. The inlet valve filter screens could be plugged by hard water scale, sediment in the water supply, or other debris. NOTE: The inlet screens protect the delicate parts of the inlet valve from being damaged by particles that could enter the valves with the water supply. Operating the washer with these filters removed could cause a valve to fail to open, resulting in flooding and/or property damage.
