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:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't

immediately follow instructions.

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

DISPENSER DRAWER

The dispenser drawer gives you the convenience of automatically

adding HE detergent, liquid chlorine bleach, and liquid fabric

softener to the wash load at the proper time. See "Using the

Dispenser Drawer" for information on using the dispenser drawer.

_High Efficiency "HE" detergent compartment

This compartment holds liquid or powdered HE detergent for

your main wash cycle.

_ Liquid fabric softener compartment

Automatically dilutes and dispenses liquidfabric softener at

the optimum time inthe cycle.

m Use only liquid fabric softener inthis dispenser.

Liquid chlorine bleach compartment

Automatically dilutes and dispenses liquid chlorine bleach at

the optimum time during the first rinse after the wash cycle.

This compartment cannot dilute powdered bleach.

Choosing the Right Detergent

Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package will be marked

"HE" or "High Efficiency_' Low-water washing creates excessive

sudsing with a non-HE detergent. Using non-HE detergent will likely

result in longer cycle times and reduced rinsing performance, it may

also result in component failure and, over time, buildup of mold or

mildew. HE detergents are low-sudsing and quick-dispersing to

produce the right amount of suds for the best performance. They

hold soil in suspension so it is not re-deposited onto clean clothes.

Follow the manufacturer's instructions to determine the amount of

detergent to use.

Use only High Efficiency (HE) detergent.

USINGTHEDISPENSERDRAWER

1. Open the dispenser drawer.

2. Add laundry products as described in steps 4-6 in the

"Using Your Washer" section.

3. Slowly close the dispenser drawer. Make sure it is

completely closed.

USINGYOURWASHER

Fire Hazard

Never place items in the washer that are dampened

with gasoline or other fiarnmable 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.

First wash cycle without laundry

Before washing clothes for the first time, if not completed during

the final installation step, choose the NORMAL cycle and run it

without clothes. Use only HE detergent. Use 1/2 the manufacturer's

recommended amount for a medium-size load. This initial cycle

serves to ensure the interior is clean before washing clothes.

1, Sort and prepare your laundry

Sort items by recommended cycle, water temperature, and

colorfastness. Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled.

Separate delicate items from sturdy fabrics. Treat stains promptly

and check for colorfastness by testing stain remover products on

an inside seam.

IMPORTANT:

[] Empty pockets. Loose change, buttons, or any small object can

plug pumps and may require a service call.

[] Close zippers, fasten hooks, tie strings and sashes, and remove

non-washable trim and ornaments.

[] Mend rips and tears to avoid further damage to items

during washing.

[] Turn knits inside out to prevent pilling. Separate lint-takers from

lint-givers. Synthetics, knits, and corduroy fabrics will pick up lint

from towels, rugs, and chenille fabrics.

[] Do not dry garments if stains remain after washing, because heat

can set stains into fabric.

[] Always read and follow fabric care labels and laundry

product instructions, improper usage may cause damage

to your garments.

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.

Single-dose laundry packet, Oxi-type boosters, color-safe bleach,

or fabric softener crystals can be added to the drum prior to

adding laundry.

NOTE: Do not add clothes to washer drum prior to adding

laundry products. Always follow manufacturer's instructions.

3.Load laundry into washer

Place a load of sorted clothes loosely in the washer, items need to

move freely for best cleaning and to reduce wrinkling and tangling.

Close the washer door by pushing it firmly until the latch clicks.

[] Depending on load type and cycle, the washer can be fully

loaded, but not tightly packed. Washer door should close easily.

See "Cycle Guide" for loading suggestions.

[] Mix large and small items and avoid washing single items. Load

evenly.

[] Wash small items in mesh garment bags. For multiple items, use

more than one bag and fill bags equally.

USING LAUNDRY PRODUCT DISPENSERS

NOTE: Do not add single-dose laundry packets, Oxi-type boosters,

color-safe bleach, or fabric softener crystals to dispensers. They will

not dispense correctly.

Pour a measured amount of liquid fabric softener into liquid fabric

softener compartment. Always follow manufacturer's directions for

correct amount of fabric softener based on your load size.

Fabric softener is always dispensed in the last rinse, even if Extra

Rinse is selected.

IMPORTANT: Do not overfill, dilute, or use more than 1/4 cup

(60 mL) of fabric softener. Do not fill past the MAX line. Overfilling

dispenser will cause fabric softener to immediately dispense into

[] Do not use liquid fabric softener dispenser balls in this washer.

They will not dispense correctly.

Add liquid chlorine bleach to dispenser

(if desired)

Add liquid chlorine bleach to the bleach compartment. Do not

overfill, dilute, or use more than 2/3 cup (165 mL). Do not use

color-safe bleach or Oxi in the same cycle with liquid chlorine

bleach.

[] Always measure liquid chlorine bleach. Use a measuring cup

with a pour spout; do not guess.

[] Do not fill beyond the "MAX" level. Overfilling could cause

garment damage.

WATER iNLET HOSES

Replace inlet hoses after 5 years of use to reduce the risk of

hose failure. Periodically inspect and replace inlet hoses if

WASHER CARE

Recommendations to Help Keep Your Washer Clean

and Performing at its Best

1. Always use High Efficiency (HE) detergents and follow the

HE detergent manufacturer's instructions regarding the

amount of HE detergent to use, Never use more than the

recommended amount because that may increase the rate

at which detergent and soil residue accumulate inside your

washer, which in turn may result in undesirable odor,

2. Use warm or hot water washes sometimes (not exclusively

cold water washes), because they do a better job of controlling

the rate at which soils and detergent accumulate,

3. Always leave the washer door slightly ajar between uses

to help dry out the washer and avoid the buildup of

odor-causing residue,

4. Periodically clean residue from the underside of the glass

window,

Cleaning Your Front Loading Washer

areas of the seal using either of the following two procedures:

a. affresh :" Grit Grabber TM Cloth Procedure:

i, When the cycle is complete, gently pull back the rubber

door seal and clean the entire surface with the rough

side of the Grit Grabber TM cloth.

b. Dilute Liquid Chlorine Bleach Procedure:

liquid chlorine bleach and 1 gallon (3,8 L) of warm tap

water,

ii, Wipe the seal area with the dilute solution, using

a damp cloth,

iii, Let stand 5 minutes,

iv, Wipe down area thoroughly with a dry cloth and let

washer interior air dry with door open,
