STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS

INSTALLING YOUR WASHER

We recommend that your new washer be installed by a qualied appliance

technician. If you feel that you have the skills to install the washer, please read the

installation instructions carefully before installing.

CAUTION: If, after completing these steps, you are unsure that the washer is

properly installed, contact a qualied appliance technician.

WARNING

If your washer was just delivered and the outside temperature was

below freezing, do not operate until the washer warms up to room

temperature.

STEP 1 - UNPACK THE WASHER

1. Remove all packing materials. This includes the foam base and all adhesive tape

holding the washer accessories inside and outside.

2. Open the top lid to remove the wash basket brace. Pull to remove.

NOTE: Save the wash basket brace to use when moving the washer in the future.

3. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed materials before

using the washer.

WARNING

To avoid danger of suﬀocation, keep plastic bag and other packing

material away from babies and children. Do not use this bag in cribs,

carriages and playpens. The plastic bag could block nose and mouth

and prevent breathing. This bag is not a toy.

STEP 2 - CONNECT AND SECURE THE DRAIN HOSE

1. Enlarge the opening by squeezing the

ends of the drain hose clamp together.

Slide the clamp over the end of the drain

hose, and onto the exible section of the

hose.

2. Fit the end of the drain hose over the

plastic drain port extending from the

washer.

3. Squeeze the ends of the clamp to enlarge

the opening and slide the clamp over the

connection of the drain hose and drain

port. Release the clamp to tighten.

4. Put the drain hose hook end in a drain pipe or laundry tub.

5. Secure the drain hose in place by fastening it to a water hose, the standpipe, or a

leg on the laundry tub. See “Drain System Requirements” for illustrations.

STEP 3 - CONNECT THE WATER HOSES

IMPORTANT: Only use new hoses when installing the washer.

NOTE: Periodically inspect hoses for cracks, cuts, leaks or wear. Replace with new

hoses every 5 years.

NOTE: Hot water needs to be set at a temperature of at least 120ºF - 140ºF. (49ºC-

60ºC) for the soap to dissolve and to avoid soap residue remaining on clothes.

1. Check that a at washer is present and rmly in place in each end of the water

inlet hoses. Flat washers are pre-installed at the factory.

2. The hose couplers are color coded to assist you in making the proper

connections. You may want to use gray for cold and red for hot. Thread the inlet

hoses onto the water faucets by hand until snug. Then using pliers, tighten an

additional two-thirds turn.

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to the hose couplings, do not overtighten.

NOTE: To avoid damage to the faucets do not use plumber’s tape or sealants on

the valve threads.

3. Thread the other end of the inlet hoses by hand onto the inlet valves marked

“H” (hot) and “C” (cold) on the back of the washer until snug. Then using pliers,

tighten an additional two-thirds turn.

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to the hose couplings, do not overtighten.

NOTE: To avoid damage to the washer inlet valves, do not use plumber’s tape or

sealants on the valve threads.

4. Turn on the hot and cold water faucets and check for leaks. If there is any leaking,

check steps 1 through 3 again.

11

STEP 4 - LEVEL THE WASHER

IMPORTANT: Proper leveling of the washer will help reduce noise and vibration.

1. Place washer in its nal location. Check that the water and drain lines are not

strained or pinched. Make sure that all four feet are rmly in contact with the

oor and that the washer rests solidly in position.

2. Using a carpenter’s level, check to make sure the washer is level from side to

side and from front to back.

3. If the washer is not level, adjust the leveling feet. Turn clockwise to extend (raise

the washer) or counterclockwise to retract (lower the washer).

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 1 - PREPARE AND SORT LAUNDRY

PREPARE LAUNDRY



Check garment labels for manufacturer’s washing instructions.



Empty pockets and turn them inside out.



Turn down cus and remove any lint or dirt.



Tie strings and sashes so they don’t tangle.



Close zippers, snaps and hooks to avoid snagging.



Remove pins or other sharp objects from clothes to prevent scratching of the

wash basket.



Pretreat all stains and heavily soiled areas.



Turn synthetic and wool knits inside out to avoid pilling.

SORT LAUNDRY



Sort laundry by the type of wash cycle required (water temperature and wash

action).



Separate light colors from dark colors and colorfast items from non-colorfast

items.



Separate heavy duty fabrics from light weight fabrics.



Separate fabrics that attract lint from fabrics that give o lint.



Separate bulky items such as blankets or pillows.

16

STEP 2 - ADD FABRIC CARE PRODUCTS

ADD DETERGENT



Use only High Eciency detergent. HE detergents are specically

formulated with ingredients to avoid problems caused by too

many soap suds. Excess suds will prevent the complete rinsing of

detergent residue from clothes.



If you select the Quick cycle, it is recommended that you use a liquid laundry

detergent to achieve optimum results. Powdered detergent may not dissolve

fast enough to clean well in this cycle.



Determine the amount of detergent. Follow the detergent use instructions on

the container.

NOTE: The proper amount of detergent depends on the size of the load, the soil

level of the clothes, and the softness of the water being supplied to the washer.

Liquid Detergent

1. Fill washer with a small amount of water and add liquid detergent.

NOTE: For best results, add the detergent to the wash basket before loading

with laundry.

2. Run washer for 30 seconds to dissolve detergent completely.

Powdered Detergent

1. Pour measured powdered detergent

directly into the detergent dispenser.





Pour measured liquid chlorine bleach into the

liquid chlorine bleach dispenser.

NOTE: Use only liquid bleach in this dispenser.

IMPORTANT: Be careful not to spill undiluted

bleach onto the washer cabinet or your

clothes. Since it is a strong chemical, it may

damage clothes or the nish of the washer.



Follow manufacturer’s directions on garment

label for recommended use of liquid or

powder bleach.

17

STEP 3 - LOAD THE WASHER

1. Load garments loosely and evenly around the wash basket.

2. Do not place clothes directly over the center of the pulsator.

3. Close the washer lid.

NOTES:



Do not overload or stu items into the wash basket. Overloading may reduce

wash eciency, cause excess wear and possibly cause creasing or wrinkling of

the load.



The washer will not pulsate or spin with the lid open.

STEP 4 - START THE WASHER

1. Press the POWER button to turn the washer on.

2. Select a wash cycle.

3. Modify the default settings and options if desired.

4. Press the START/PAUSE button to start the wash cycle.

18
