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 isthe 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
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.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
For a grounded, cord-connected washer:
This washer must be grounded. In the event of a mal-
function or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk
of electrical shock by providing a path of least resist-
ance for electric current. This washer is equipped with
a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and
a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is properly installed and ground-
ed in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric
shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman
if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is prop-
erly grounded.
Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance -
if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
For a permanently connected washer:
This washer must be connected to a grounded metal,
permanent wiring system, or an equipment grounding
conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and
connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead
on the appliance.

FEATURES AND
BENEFITS
Your new washer works differently than most washers that you
are accustomed to. The most striking difference is the washer
does not have an agitator. It uses the innovative CALYPSO TM
wash motion. The Wash Plate, at the bottom of the basket,
creates a motion that lifts, rolls and bounces your wash load
through a mixture of water and detergent that is continuously
reapplied to the load to force out stains and soils.
The CALYPSOTM wash motion
Is easier to load (since there is no agitator.)
Is gentler on clothes. There is less wear and tear on your
clothes.
Fluffs the load after the final spin to make unloading easier.
SENSOR SMART =Electronic Controls
SENSOR SMART electronic controls are easy to use whether you
are a beginner or an "expert."
TRIPLE SMART TM Dispensers
The TRIPLE SMART dispensers make your washer truly
automatic. It is unnecessary for you to return to the washer
during the cycle to add detergent, bleach, or fabric softener.
Laundry products are diluted with fresh water and added to the
load at the proper time in the wash cycle.
Auto Water Level
This washer senses load size and composition, then
automatically adjusts water level for best cleaning and rinsing
performance. It eliminates the guess work. The water level is just
right for every wash load size.
Larger Load Size
Since there is no agitator, you can wash larger, bulkier items such
as a sleeping bag. You are also able to wash more clothes at one
time, which means fewer loads. The KING SIZF MCapacity Plus
allows for loads such as king size bedding. You can wash a pillow
or a large stuffed teddy bear.
ULTRA QUIET PAK TM
The ULTRA QUIET PAK reduces water sounds and ringing
noises. The cabinet and base are insulated with sound-
dampening materials. An additional tub wrap is added for
superior vibration and sound-dampening.
Suspension System
To reduce washer "walk" and "out of balance" conditions, your
new washer combines:
4 Spring damper struts to isolate vibration
2 Shock absorbers at the washer base to minimize movement
Balance ring at the top of the wash basket to minimize
vibration
Stainless Steel Basket
The Stainless Steel basket eliminates corrosion and enables
higher spin speeds for more water extraction, reducing drying
time.
High-Efficiency Wash System
Your new top loading, high-efficiency washer saves time with
fewer, larger loads, conserves resources and lowers your water
and energy bills too.
Force Filter Wash/Rinse System
This washer filters 100% of the wash and rinse water. The water
is filtered then re-circulated. The force filter traps sand and dirt,
flushing it down the drain, so it is not re-deposited on the clean
clothes.
10
WASHER USE
2. Pour measured powdered or liquid detergent into the
detergent dispenser.
d
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.
The following is a guide to starting your washer. Periodic
references to other sections of this manual provide more detailed
information.
1. Place a load of sorted clothes into the washer. Load to a level
shown below. (See "Loading.")
For best performance use with High Efficiency
detergents. The package for this type of detergent will be
marked "HE" or High Efficiency." The new wash action of
CALYPSO TM along with less water, could create too much
sudsing with a regular detergent. HE detergents like TIDE"
HE are made to produce the right amount of suds for the
best performance. Follow the manufacturer's instructions
to determine the amount of detergent to use.
If High Efficiency detergent is not available, use a reduced
amount of regular laundry detergent.
NOTE: You can add color-safe bleach (liquid or powdered) to
this dispenser as well.
3. Pour measured liquid chlorine bleach into the liquid chlorine
bleach dispenser, if needed. Bleach is diluted and
automatically dispensed at the proper time during the wash
cycle.
Do not overfill. 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.
NOTE: Use only liquid chlorine bleach in this dispenser.
11
4. Pour measured liquid fabric softener into the fabric softener
dispenser, if desired.
Do not overfill. The dispenser holds 3 oz (94 mL), or a
capful of fabric softener.
The fabric softener is dispensed in the final rinse.
Do not spill or drip any fabric softener on the clothes.
NOTE: Use only liquid fabric softener in this dispenser.
5. Close the washer lid.
6. Select a Cycle. This turns on the washer display. (See
"Cycles.")

for no-iron fabrics and garments indicating "Gentle" cycle on the
care label. Low/medium spin speed is used to reduce wrinkling.
The preset cycle wash time is 14 minutes.
BULKY ITEMS
Use this cycle to get 13 to 17 minutes of wash time for large
items like blankets and comforters. Cleaning starts with a spray
of water and detergent mixture to thoroughly saturate your large
load. This is followed by low/medium wash action and low/
medium spin speed to maintain load balance. The preset cycle
wash time is 15 minutes.
12
ULTRA HANDWASH
Use this cycle to get 7 to 11 minutes of wash time for garments
labeled "Hand Wash" and special care items. Gentle cleaning
starts with a continuous spray of water and detergent mixture as
the load is spun at extra-low speed. This lasts for about one
minute and is followed by a brief period of extra-low wash action.
Low/medium spin speed helps reduce wrinkling. The preset cycle
wash time is 7 minutes.
Garments are labeled "Hand Wash" because:
Thefiber construction may be sensitive to wash action.
The fabric contains sensitive dyes that may bleed.
NOTE: Some "Hand Wash" items, particularly wool, naturally
shrink when washed. Keep this in mind when you purchase items
labeled "Hand Wash." Items that shrink should be dried flat.
When still wet, block these items by gently stretching to original
measurements.
EXPRESS WASH
Use this cycle to get 7 to 11 minutes of wash time for small,
lightly soiled loads that are needed in a hurry. Fast cleaning starts
with a continuous spray of water and detergent mixture as the
load is spun at extra-low speed, followed by a brief period of low/
medium speed wash action. High spin speed reduces drying time.
For the fastest results, select warm wash. The preset cycle wash
time is 7 minutes.
WOOL/SILK
Use this cycle to get 6 to 10 minutes of wash time for washable
items that are normally dry cleaned. Cycle combines extra-low
speed spray cleaning and wash action to provide gentle care for
delicate items, such as wool sweaters and silk blouses. Low spin
speed helps garments maintain their shape. The preset cycle
wash time is 6 minutes.

*Wash Time in minutes will appear in the display while making
selections. The total cycle time will appear, including an
estimated time for drain and fill times, once START is pressed.
After you have loaded the washer, selected the cycle, options
and modifiers and you have pressed START, your washer does
the following:
Distributes the load
Load is initially fluffed to distribute the load before water is
added.
Fills
Water enters through the dispenser to mix with the detergent.
Water continues to be added until the load is soaked and just
enough water is present to maintain the spray. This way of
washing and rinsing uses less water and makes the detergent
more effective in cleaning your clothes. As a result, you will
only see a wet load and not a full tub of water, if you open the
lid.
Washes
As the washer continues to fill, a low speed spin begins and
the detergent/water mixture is sprayed on to the load.
The spinning stops and the CALYPSO TM wash motion begins,
while the wash water continues to be sprayed on to the
moving load. The length of wash depends on the cycle and
wash time selected.
The CALYPSO TM wash motion features five wash speeds in
combination with low-speed spin sprays for a variety of fabric
care needs.
Liquid chlorine bleach is dispensed in the last 2-3 minutes of
the wash cycle to help ensure the best cleaning results.
The wash water is then drained and spun out before rinsing
begins.
13
Rinses
Rinsing is accomplished in the same manner as washing.
Fresh water is added to a slow spinning load. Then the load
moves through the spray rinses. The water is then drained
away and the rinsing process is repeated. The number of
rinses varies depending on the cycle.
During the last rinse, fabric softener is dispensed into the
bottom of the tub and applied to the load.
Final Spin
The last of the rinse water is drained and the load is spun.
The amount of spinning depends on the cycle selected.
To make unloading easy the load is peeled off the sides of the
basket by the CALYPSO TM wash motion.
Normal Washer Sounds
As with any new product, you will hear sounds that you are not
accustomed to. You may hear various sounds occurring during
the washing, rinsing and spinning process. Between changes in
wash actions, there will be momentary pauses. You will hear
water spraying and splashing during the wash and rinse cycles.
These new sounds and pauses are part of normal washer
operation. (See "Troubleshooting.")
Use this feature to select the desired prewash and rinse options
for your wash cycle.
PREWASH OPTIONS
Select a prewash option to ensure thorough cleaning of your
heavily soiled and stained loads.
O_A'ilJRATED SOAK
oSTAJH TREAT
PREWASH
OPTIONS
SATURATED SOAK
Use this option for set-in stains and soil that need extra time for
removal. Soaking in this washer is different than in a conventional
washer. The washer sprays the load with water and detergent for
4 minutes at extra low spin speed followed by a brief period of
wash action at the speed of the selected cycle. Then another 4
minutes of spraying and extra low spinning occurs. The wash
action then pauses for the detergent to work on the soils. The
SATURATED SOAK feature is followed by the selected cycle.
Using SATURATED SOAK will extend your wash cycle by 16
minutes.
STAIN TREAT
This option provides enhanced CATALYST'_Cleaning Action for
tough stains. The HEAVY DUTY and WHITEST WHITES cycles
automatically include STAIN TREAT for total wash times of 23
minutes.
NOTE: Deselecting STAIN TREAT from the HEAVY DUTY and
WHITEST WHITES cycles will decrease the total wash times to
19 minutes.
STAIN TREAT may be selected as an option with other cycles.

high speed spin.
RINSE/SPIN
Use this option to get a combination of rinses and spins followed
by a high-speed spin. The time display will include an estimate of
how long it will take to fill and drain the washer. Fabric softener
can be added to the Fabric Softener dispenser.
When to use Rinse/Spin:

Modifiers allow you to further customize your cycles and save
energy.
WASH/RINSE TEMP
Select a water temperature based on the type of load you are
washing. Use the warmest water safe for fabrics. Follow garment
label instructions.
Warm rinses leave the loads dryer than cold rinses. Warm rinses
increase wrinkling. In cold climates, a warm rinse makes the load
more comfortable to handle. Cold rinses save energy.
