What You Need to Know About

Safety Instructions

Warning and Important Safety Instructions appearing in

this guide are not meant to cover all possible

conditions and situations that may occur. Common

sense, caution and care must be exercised when

inst

alling, maint

aining or operating appliance.

Always contact the manufacturer about problems or

conditions you do not underst

and.

Labels

WARNING! FIRE HAZARD

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.

Do not wash articles which have been previously

cleaned, washed, soaked, or spotted with gasoline,

dry-cleaning solvents, oil, waxes, chemical solvents,

alcohol, turpentine, or other flammable or explosive

materials. These substances will be retained in

articles, and articles which still contain these

flammable or explosive substances give off vapors

that could ignite or explode.

Observe these precautions when using cleaning

fluids, spot or stain removers, etc. These products

should be labeled “nonflammable.” Use according to

manufacturers directions in a well ventilated area or

outdoors. Thoroughly rinse articles by hand before

placing them in the washer

. Some of the

se products

– rust removers for example – will damage

components and the finish of the washer.

Keep area around and underneath washer free from

the accumulation of combustible materials, such as

lint, paper, rags, gasoline, and all other flammable

vapors and liquids.

HYD

ROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE!

Under cer

tain

conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot

water system that has not been used for two weeks

or more. If the hot water system has not been used

for such a period, before using the washer, turn on

all the hot water faucets and let the water flow from

each faucet for several minute

s. T

his will release any

accumulated hydrogen gas. As this gas is

flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame

during this time.

Recent studies have shown that if vegetable oil

contaminated materials are incompletely washed, a

arry-over and buildup of the oil may contribute to a

chemical reaction (spontaneous combustion) that

could c

ause a load to c

atch fire by it

self

. T

his would

be more likely to happen if the load were left in the

dryer after tumbling stopped or if items were folded

and st

acked while warm.

1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.

2. As with any equipment using electricity and having

moving parts, there are potential hazards. To use this

appliance safely, the operator should become familiar

exposed to the weather.

4. Install and level washer on a floor that can support

the weight.

5. This appliance must be properly grounded. Never

plug the appliance cord into a receptacle which is not

grounded adequately and in accordance with local

and national codes. See installation instructions for

grounding this appliance.

6. To avoid the possibility of fire or explosion:

Do not wash items 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. Hand wash and line dry

any items containing these substances.

Any material on which you have used a cleaning

solvent, or which is saturated with flammable

liquids or solids, should not be placed in the

washer until all traces of these liquids or solids

and their fumes have been removed.

These items include acetone, denatured alcohol,

gasoline, kerosene, some liquid household

cleaners, some spot removers, turpentine, waxes

and wax removers.

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.

basic safety precautions, including the following:

WARNING

accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is

flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame

during this time.

d. Do not wash or dry items that are soiled with

vegetable or cooking oil. These items may contain

some oil after laundering. Due to the remaining oil,

the fabric may smoke or catch fire by itself.

7. Do not reach into the appliance if the tub or agitator

is moving.

Do not allow children or pets to play on, in, or in

front of the appliance. Close supervision is necessary

when the appliance is used near children and pets.

Do not tamper with controls.

10.

Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or

attempt any servicing unless specifically

recommended in published user-repair instructions

that you understand and have the skills to carry out.

11. Unplug power supply cord before attempting to

service your washer. Service is to be done only by

qualified service personnel.

12. The agit

ator should not be removed. If the agitator is

removed, it must be replaced by pushing down

completely and the locking screw tightened before

the washer is operated.

13. Keep all laundry aids such as detergents, bleach, etc.,

out of the reach of children, preferably in a locked

cabinet. Use laundry aids only as directed by the

manufacturer. Observe all warnings on container labels.

14. Keep the area around and underneath washer free

from the accumulation of combustible materials, such

as lint, paper, rags, gasoline, and all other flammable

vapors and liquids.

15.

Do not use chlorine bleach and ammonia or acids

(such as vinegar or rust remover) in the s

ame wash.

Hazardous fumes can form.

16. Do not machine wash fiberglass materials. Small

particles can stick to fabrics washed in following

loads and c

ause skin irrit

ation.

17. For flame resistant finishes - follow garment

manufacturer's instructions carefully. Improper

laundering could remove the finish.

18. Before the appliance is removed from service or

disc

arded, remove the door to the washing compar

tment.

19. Inlet hoses are subject to damage and deterioration

over time. Check the hoses periodically for bulges, kinks,

cuts, wear or leaks and replace them every five years.

Operating Tips

Detergent

• Use either liquid or granular laundry detergent. For

best results, be sure detergent is added to the

washer BEFORE the load and be sure the wash

water is above 60

• Use the correct amount of detergent for the load size,

soil level and water conditions. Use more detergent if

you have hard water and very soiled loads.

If you have soft water or a lightly soiled load, use less

detergent. (See manufacturer’s instructions.)

• Wipe up any detergent spills on the washer.

•

For best results add the detergent to the washtub

before adding the load.

• Put dry, unfolded clothes loosely in the tub, up to the

top row of holes for a maximum load.

•

Do not wrap large items like sheets around the

agit

ator.

• Mix large and small items for best circulation. W

ash

bulky items like blankets separately.

• When laundering wrinkle-free items or items of

delic

ate construction, washable woolens or loosely

knit items, never use le

ss than the MEDIUM water

level setting. This will minimize shrinkage, wrinkling

and pulling of seams.

•

Close lid c

arefully to avoid slamming.

Additional Tips

• During the spin, it is possible for the load to become

unevenly distributed in the tub. If this happens, push

in the control dial, open the lid, redistribute the load,

close the lid and restart the washer. The spin will

resume at the point it was interrupted.

• The washer will pause briefly throughout each cycle.

These pauses are normal.

• This washer is designed so that it

will not agitate or

spin when the lid is open. It will, however, fill with the

lid open so water is available for pretreating stains or

diluting fabric softener.

• If you open the lid during a spin cycle, the washer

will stop. When the lid is closed and the washer is

restarted, the washer will continue the cycle at the

point it was interrupted.

STEP 5

Liquid Bleach Dispenser

The dispenser automatically dilutes liquid chlorine

bleach before it reaches your wash load.

To use, follow these steps:

1. Measure liquid chlorine bleach carefully, following

the instructions on the bottle.

Pour liquid chlorine bleach into bleach

dispenser before adding the load. Avoid splashing

or over-filling the dispenser.

Fabric Softener Dispenser

The dispenser automatically releases liquid fabric

softener at the proper time during the cycle.

To use, follow these steps:

1. Pour a measured amount of fabric softener into

the dispenser to fill line only.

2. If fabric softener comes below line, add warm

water.

If it is necessary to clean the dispenser:

1. Pull the dispenser off of the top of the agitator.

2. Soak for one hour in sink or container in hot water

and dishwashing liquid.

3. Hold hands over top and bottom of dispenser and

shake to loosen buildup.

4. Rinse with clean, hot water.

5. Repeat process if necessary.

6. Replace dispenser on agitator.

Do not use dishwashing liquid

inside the washer. Oversudsing

can occur.

Automatic Lint Filtering System

The Lint Filtering System does not require

cleaning.

Wash and rinse water is filtered and re-filtered

continuously to trap lint shed by most fabrics during

the agitation cycle before it can be redeposited on the

wash load. The engineered hole design on the wash

basket in conjunction with water flow produced by the

agitator, traps lint away from the clothes between the

inner wash basket and the outer tub. Lint is

automatically flushed from the washer during the spin

cycle.

Safety Spin

If for any reason you open the washer lid when the

washer is in a spin or extract period, the operation will

immediately stop. This is for your personal safety. If

your washer doe

s not stop, c

all your service technician

immediately

. W

hen the lid is closed, the operation will

automatically resume.

Notes:

• Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach

directly onto the load or into the wash tub. It is a

powerful chemical and can cause fabric damage,

such as tearing or color loss, if not used properly

• If you prefer to use color-safe, non-chlorine

bleach, pour it into the wash tub with your

detergent.

Do not pour non-chlorine bleaches into

the bleach dispenser.

Special Features

Finger Faucet (select models)

Provides a flow of water when holding the

switch in the

On position.

Unbalanced Spin Load

Compensator

Your new washer is designed to handle out-of-balance

loads without shutting down or interrupting the

washing cycle.

For this reason, the cycle will always be completed. If

heavier fabrics in such out-of-balance loads should

ever contain excessive moisture at the completion of

the cycle, redistribute the clothes in the washer and

reset the control dial for the final spin period.

Overload Protector

A built-in protector automatically shuts off the washer

motor in case of an overload. This can occur if:

• The load being washed is too heavy.

• Too many appliances are plugged into the line

operating your washer.

• A low voltage condition exists on the line.

• Lid is opened and closed repeatedly.

The overload protector permits the washer to start again

when the motor has cooled to a safe operating temperature.

If the motor stops repeatedly, call your service technician.

Special Features

Care & Cleaning

1. After washing, leave the lid open until the interior

is dry.

Check hoses to be sure there are no kinks or knots.

3. Your washer should not be installed where

temperatures will go below freezing, as damage to

the washer could re

sult.

4. To clean, occasionally wipe exterior with a clean

damp sponge or cloth.

Do not use polish on

plastic par

ts.

5. Lifetime lubrication is done at the factory, so your

washer never needs to be oiled or greased.

Do not lay heavy or sharp objects on top of your

washer.

7. The top of the washer should not be used for

removing stains from garments. Some stain

removers, such as rust remover, will mar the finish.

Remove pins, buckles or other sharp objects from

clothes to prevent scratching interior parts.

Clothe

s should not be stored in washer

10. Bleach, detergent, solvents, etc. spilled on the top

of your washer that are allowed to remain will

remove the glossy finish. Remove all spills with a

damp, soft cloth.

11. If you close your home for the winter, have a service

technician drain the washer

. Unplug cord from

electric

al outlet and disconnect hose

s from faucet

Cleaning the Interior

Clean the interior of the washer periodically to remove

any dir

t, soil, odor

, mold, mildew or bacteria residue

that may remain in the washer as a result of washing

clothes. We recommend taking the following steps

every 60 to 120 days to clean and freshen your washer

interior. The frequenc

y with which the washer should

be cleaned and freshened depends on factors such as

usage, the amount of dirt, soil or bacteria being run

through your washer

, or the use of cold water

. Failure

to follow these instructions may result in unsatisfactory

conditions, including unpleasant odor and/or

permanent st

ains on the washer or washload.

To clean and freshen the washer interior:

1. Add a measured amount of chlorine bleach to the

bleach dispenser

, following package directions.

2. Add 1/4 cup of detergent to the tub.

Run the washer without a load through a complete

cycle using hot water.

4. Repeat the process if necessary.

• Plug cord into live electrical outlet.

• Check fuse or reset circuit breaker.

• Turn the control dial to proper cycle and restart the washer.

• Turn both faucets on fully.

• Straighten inlet hoses.

• Disconnect hoses and clean screens. Hose filter screens may be plugged.

• Check fuse or reset circuit breaker.

• Make sure the lid is completely closed.

• Turn the control dial to proper cycle and restart the washer.

• Pauses are normal. Wait and see if the washer will start again.

• Check fuse or reset circuit breaker.

• Straighten drain hoses. Eliminate kinked hoses. If there is a home drain restriction, call for

drain service.

• Close lid and restart the washer. For your safety, washer will not spin unless the lid is closed.

• Suds lock – caused by too much suds. Rewash without detergent. Use correct amount of a

low-sudsing detergent.

• Unevenly distributed load. Redistribute the load, close the lid and restart the washer. Check for

leveling. Be sure water level is acceptable for load size.

• A normal spin speed is recommended for heavy loads like jeans or towels.

• Plug cord into live electrical outlet.

• Check fuse or reset circuit breaker.

• Close lid and restart the washer. For your safety, washer will not agitate or spin unless lid is closed.

• This may be a pause in the cycle. Wait briefly and it may start.

• Make sure hose connections are tight.

• Make sure end of drain hose is correctly inserted and secured to drain facility.

AVERTISSEMENT ! RISQUE D’INCENDIE

Ne pas ajouter d’essence, de solvants de nettoyage à sec

ou toute autre substance inflammable ou explosive à

l’eau de lavage. Ces substances produisent des vapeurs

ui pourraient s’enflammer ou exploser.

Ne pas laver d’articles qui ont auparavant été nettoyés,

lavés, trempés ou détachés à l’aide d’essence, de solvants

de nettoyage à sec, d’huiles, de cires, de solvants

chimiques, d’alcool, de térébenthine ou d’autres produits

explosifs ou inflammables. Ces substances resteront

incrustées dans les articles, et ceux-ci produisent des

vapeurs qui peuvent s’enflammer ou exploser.

Suivre ces précautions lors de l’utilisation de produits

nettoyants liquides, de détachants, etc. Ces produits

doivent porter la mention ininflammable. Utiliser

conformément aux directive

s du fabricant dans un

endroit bien aéré ou à l’extérieur. Rincer à fond les

articles à la main avant de les mettre dans la laveuse.

Certains produits - ceux qui enlèvent la rouille par

exemple - peuvent endommager les pièces et la finition

de la laveuse.

Éviter toute accumulation de matériaux combustibles, tels

que la charpie, le papier, les chiffons, l’essence et autres

vapeurs et liquides inflammables, sous la laveuse et

autour de celle-ci.

L’HYDROGÈNE EST UN GAZ EXPLOSIF ! Dans

certaines conditions, il peut y avoir production

d’hydrogène dans un système de chauffage d’eau qui

n’est pas utilisé pendant 2 semaines ou davantage. Si le

système de chauffage d’eau n’a pas été utilisé pendant

une telle durée, ouvrir tous les robinets d’eau chaude et

laisser couler l’

eau pendant plusieurs minutes avant

d’utiliser la laveuse. Ceci élimine toute accumulation

d’hydrogène. Ce gaz étant inflammable, ne pas fumer ni

utiliser de flamme vive pendant cette procédure.

Des études récentes ont démontré que si les substances

cont

aminées d’huile végétale ne sont pas complètement

nettoyées, une accumulation d’huile peut provoquer une

réaction chimique (combustion spontanée) qui pourrait

causer un incendie. Cela risque davantage de survenir

lorsque les vêtements sont laissés dans la sécheuse

après que le tambour ait cessé de tourner ou que les

articles sont pliés et empilés avant que la chaleur ne se

soit dissipée.

Ce qu’il faut savoir à propos

des consignes de sécurité

Les consignes de sécurité et les mises en garde présentées

dans ce guide ne couvrent pas toutes les situations

possibles. Faire preuve de jugement, de prudence et

d’attention lors de l’installation, de l’entretien et de

l’utilisation de l’appareil.

Lorsque survient un problème ou une situation inhabituelle,

toujours communiquer avec le fabric

ant.

Reconnaissez les étiquettes, phrases

ou symboles sur la securite

AVERTISSEMENT – Risques ou pratiques non sûres, qui

URRAIENT

résulter en de grave

s ble

ssures ou même

la mort.

AVERTISSEMENT

ATTENTION – Risques ou pratiques non sûres qui

OURRAIENT

résulter en ble

ssures mineures.

ATTENTION

1. Lire toutes les instructions avant d’utiliser la laveuse.

2. Comme avec tout équipement fonctionnant à l’électricité

et comportant des pièces mobiles, il existe toujours des

possibilités de danger. Pour utiliser cette machine dans

les meilleures conditions de sécurité, l’opérateur doit se

familiariser avec les instructions de fonctionnement de

l’appareil et user de prudence pendant son utilisation.

Ne pas installer ni remiser la laveuse dans un endroit

où elle e

st exposée aux intempéries.

4. Installer la laveuse et la mettre de niveau sur un

plancher pouvant supporter son poids.

5. Cet appareil doit être correctement mis à la terre. Ne

jamais brancher le câble électrique d’une laveuse sur

une prise murale non mise à la terre conformément aux

codes locaux et nationaux. Voir les instructions

d’installation pour la mise à la terre de cette machine.

6. Pour éviter les risques d’incendie ou d’explosion :

Ne pas laver d’articles qui ont auparavant été

nettoyés ou lavés à l’aide d’essence, de solvants de

nettoyage à sec ou d’autres produits explosifs ou

inflammables, ou qui en sont imbibés ou éclaboussés,

car ces substances produisent des vapeurs qui

peuvent s’enflammer ou exploser. Laver à la main et

sécher à l’air tout article contenant ces substances.

Tout tissu sur lequel des solvants de nettoyage ont

été utilisés ou qui est s

aturé de liquides ou solides

inflammables ne doit pas être mis dans la laveuse

avant que toute trace et toute vapeur de ces liquides

ou solides ne soient complètement éliminées.

Ces produits comprennent l’acétone, l’alcool

dénaturé, l’essence, le kérosène, certains produits de

nettoyage ménagers, les détachants, la térébenthine,

les cire

s et le

s décapants de cire.

Ne pas ajouter d’essence, de solvants de nettoyage à

sec ou toute autre subst

ance inflammable ou

explosive à l’eau de lavage. Ces substances produisent

des vapeurs qui pourraient s’enflammer ou exploser.

c. Dans certaines conditions, il peut y avoir production

d’hydrogène dans un système de chauffage d’eau qui

n’est pas utilisé pendant 2 semaines ou plus.

L’HYDROGÈNE EST UN GAZ EXPLOSIF. Si le système

de chauffage d’eau n’est pas utilisé sur une telle

durée, ouvrir tous les robinets d’eau chaude et laisser

couler l’eau pendant plusieurs minutes avant d’utiliser

la laveuse ou la ensemble laveuse-sécheuse. Ceci

élimine toute accumulation d’hydrogène. Ce gaz étant

inflammable,

ne pas fumer ni utiliser de flamme vive

pendant cette procédure.

Pour réduire les risques d’incendie, d’explosion,

d’électrocution ou de blessures lors de l’utilisation de cet

ppareil, suivre les précautions d’usage, dont les suivantes :

AVERTISSEMENT

d. Ne pas laver ou sécher d’articles tachés d’huile

égétale ou de cuisson. Ces articles pourraient être

encore imprégnés d’huile après la lessive. Pour cette

raison, le tissu pourrait émettre des fumées ou

prendre feu de lui-même.

7. Ne pas mettre la main ou le bras dans la laveuse si

l’agitateur ou cuve est en mouvement.

Ne pas permettre aux enfants ou aux animaux familiers

de jouer sur l’appareil, à l’intérieur ou en face de celui-

ci. Une supervision étroite est nécessaire lorsque

l’appareil est utilisé à proximité d’enfants ou d’animaux

familiers.

Ne pas modifier les mécanismes de commande.

10. Ne pas réparer ou remplacer une pièce de la laveuse

ou procéder à un dépannage, sauf si les instructions

publiées le recommandent et que la personne effectuant

la réparation les comprend et possède les

connaissances voulues pour les exécuter.

11. Débrancher le cordon d’alimentation électrique avant

d’essayer de réparer la laveuse. Les réparations ne

doivent être effectuées que par du personnel qualifié.

12. L’agitateur ne doit pas être retiré. S’il est retiré, le

replacer en l’enfonçant à fond, puis serrer la vis de

blocage avant de faire fonctionner la laveuse.

13. Conserver tous les produits de lessive, les détergents,

les produits de blanchiment, etc., hors de portée des

enfants, et de préférence dans une armoire fermée à

clé. N’utiliser ces produits que selon les directives du

fabricant. Observer tous les avertissements paraissant

sur les étiquettes des différents produits.

14. S’assurer que toute la zone autour de la laveuse et en

dessous, soit dégagée de toute accumulation de

matériaux combustibles comme charpie, papier, chiffons,

ssence et tout autre liquide ou vapeur inflammable.

15.

Ne pas mélanger de javellisant et d’ammoniaque ou

d’

acide

s (tels que du vinaigre ou du produit pour enlever

la rouille) pour une même charge de linge. Des vapeurs

nocives peuvent se former.

16. Ne pas laver d’

ticle

s en fibre de verre à la laveuse. De

petites particules peuvent se coller sur le linge lavé par

la suite et provoquer des irritations cutanées.

17. Apprêts résistants aux flammes – suivre attentivement

les instructions du fabricant du vêtement. Un vêtement

incorrectement lavé ou séché pourrait perdre son apprêt

ignifuge.

18.

Avant de mettre la laveuse hors service ou au rebut,

retirer la porte du compartiment de lavage.

19.

Les tuyaux d’alimentation se détériorent progressivement.

Inspecter les tuyaux à intervalle régulier; rechercher

dilatations, écrasements, coupures, fuites et indices

d’usure. Remplacer les tuyaux après 5 ans de service.

Fonctionnement

Détergent

• Utiliser du détergent liquide ou en poudre. Pour des

ésultats optimums, ajouter suffisamment de

détergent dans la laveuse AVANT de la remplir et

régler la température de l’eau à plus de 16 °C (60 °F).

• Utiliser la quantité de détergent qui convient à la charge,

au degré de saleté et à la dureté de l’eau. Utiliser plus de

détergent si l’eau est dure et que la charge est très sale.

Si l’eau est douce ou que la charge est peu sale, utiliser

moins de détergent. (Voir les instructions du fabricant.)

• Essuyer la laveuse si elle se trouve éclaboussée de

détergent.

Chargement

• Pour des résultats optimums, mettre du détergent dans la

cuve avant d’ajouter le linge.

• Mettre le linge sec, non plié sans le tasser dans la laveuse,

en remplissant le panier jusqu’au rang supérieur de trous

pour une charge maximum.

•

Ne pas enrouler de grands articles tels que des draps

autour de l’agitateur.

• Pour une meilleure circulation, mélanger les petits et les

grands articles. Laver les articles volumineux comme les

couvertures séparément.

• Lors du lavage d’articles infroissables, fragiles, de lainages

lavables ou d’articles en tricot à mailles lâches, ne jamais

utiliser un niveau d’eau inférieur au réglage MEDIUM

(moyen). Ils auront moins tendance à rétrécir, à se froisser

et les coutures tiendront mieux.

• Refermer soigneusement le couvercle pour qu’il ne

claque pas.
