For best performance, it is recommended to load items in loose

heaps evenly around the agitator.

As the washer dampens and moves the load, the level of the

items will settle in the basket. This is normal, and does not

indicate that more items should be added.

WHAT’S NEW UNDER THE LID?

Choosing the Right Detergent

Use only High Efﬁciency detergents. The package will be marked

“HE” or “High Efﬁciency.” High Efﬁciency wash systems create

excessive sudsing with a regular non-HE detergent. Using regular

detergent will likely result in longer cycle times and reduced

rinsing performance. It may also result in component failures and

noticeable mold or mildew. HE detergents 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 and do not go over the Max line on the dispenser. See

“Using Laundry Product Dispensers” for more information.

Normal Sounds You Can Expect

At different stages of the wash cycle, you may hear sounds and

noises that are different from those of your previous washer. For

example, you may hear a clicking and hum at the beginning of the

cycle as the lid lock goes through a self-test. There will be different

kinds of humming and whirring sounds as the agitator moves the

load and as the basket is slowing down to stop. Sometimes, you

may hear nothing at all as the washer determines the correct water

level for your load or allows time for clothes to soak.

Use only High Efﬁciency (HE) detergent.

More Water When You Need It

The most striking difference in your new washer is the Dual

Wash Agitator System. In Auto-Sensing Water Level mode,

the washer automatically adjusts the water level to the optimal

amount for a High Efﬁciency wash of the detected load size. In

Deep Fill mode, the washer will ﬁll to a pre-determined water level

independent of load size, allowing for greater ﬂexibility in how you

wash your clothes.

Traditional Low-Water

Wash System

With Deep Fill Wash Mode

Washplate

Automatic Load Size Sensing

Once you start the cycle, the lid will lock, and the washer will begin

the sensing process to determine the correct water level for the

load. This may take several minutes before water is added. You will

ﬁnd a step-by-step description in the “Cycle Status Lights” section.

Initially the basket will start to spin prior to adding water, this is part

of the sensing process and is normal.

CONTROL PANEL AND FEATURES

POWER

Touch to turn the washer on and off. Touch to stop/cancel a

cycle at any time.

WASH CYCLE KNOB

Use the Wash Cycle knob to select available cycles on your

washer. Turn the knob to select a cycle for your laundry load.

See “Cycle Guide” for detailed descriptions.

ESTIMATED CYCLE TIME

The Estimated Cycle Time display shows the time required for

the cycle to complete. Factors such as load size and water

pressure may affect the time shown in the display. Overloading,

unbalanced loads, or excessive suds may cause the washer to

adjust the cycle time, as well.

DELAY START

Use “+” and “–” to delay the start of the wash cycle by up to

12 hours. To turn off Delay Start, use “+” and “–” to set the

delay time to “0,” or touch POWER.

START/PAUSE BUTTON

Touch and hold START/PAUSE button for up to 3 seconds or

until the washer starts to begin the selected cycle. To pause a

cycle after it has started, press the START/PAUSE button again.

NOTE: If the washer is spinning, it may take several minutes

to unlock the lid.

CYCLE MODIFIERS

The following options may be added to most cycles.

TEMPERATURE

Wash temperature senses and maintains uniform water

temperatures by regulating incoming hot and cold water.

Select a wash temperature based on the type of fabric

and soils being washed. For best results and following the

garment label instructions, use the warmest wash water safe

for your fabric.

• On some models and cycles, warm and hot water may be

cooler than your previous washer.

• Even in a cold and cool water wash, some warm water

may be added to the washer to maintain a minimum

temperature.

SOIL LEVEL

Select the most suitable setting for your load. For heavily

soiled items, select Extra Heavy Soil Level for more wash

time. For lightly soiled items, select Extra Light Soil Level

for less wash time.

Lighter soil level setting will help reduce tangling

and wrinkling.

SPIN SPEED

Select the most suitable setting for your load.

CYCLE OPTIONS

The following options may be added to most cycles.

OXI

This washer is designed to dispense laundry boosters such

as oxygenated stain treaters and color-safe bleach at the

right time in the cycle for best cleaning performance. Do not

use laundry boosters and chlorine bleach in the same cycle.

EXTRA RINSE

This option can be used to automatically add a second rinse

to most cycles.

NOTE: If you want to Rinse and Spin, select the Drain & Spin

cycle; then touch to turn on the Extra Rinse option.

DEEP CLEAN w/Steam (depending on model)

This option adds additional soak and wash time to many

cycles to help remove tough stains, as well as a steam

boost for added cleaning power. Deep Clean w/Steam

uses a heater within the washer to maintain the selected

temperature setting throughout the wash period. Deep Clean

w/Steam may be selected as an option with other cycles.

DEEP CLEAN (depending on model)

This option provides enhanced cleaning action for tough

stains. It will add additional agitation and soak time to the

cycle.

AUDIO LEVEL

Use this option to adjust volume of the signal that sounds at

the end of cycle and key pad sounds. Touch once for low, a

second time for off, and a third time to loop back to high. A

higher signal is helpful in removing items as soon as cycle is

complete. Default setting is high.

CYCLE STATUS LIGHTS

The Cycle Status Lights show the progress of a cycle. At each

stage of the process, you may notice sounds or pauses that are

different from traditional washers.

SENSING

When the START/Pause button is touched, the washer will

ﬁrst perform a self-test on the lid lock mechanism. You will

hear a click, the basket will make a slight turn, and the lid will

unlock brieﬂy before locking again.

Once the lid has locked the second time, the washer will use

short, slow spins to estimate the load size. These sensing

spins may take 2 to 3 minutes before water is added to the

load and you may hear the hum of these spins. If the sensing

light is on, then washer is working properly. You will hear the

NOTE: The control panel features a sensitive surface that responds to a light touch of your ﬁnger. To ensure your selections are registered,

touch the control panel with your ﬁnger tip, not your ﬁngernail. When selecting a setting or option, simply touch its name until the desired

section is illuminated.

motor turn the basket in short pulses to thoroughly wet the

load. The washer will then move the load brieﬂy, pause to

allow water to soak in to the load, and resume adding water.

This process may repeat until the correct amount of water

has been added for the load. You may also hear water ﬂowing

through the dispenser, adding detergent to the load.

NOTE: Avoid opening lid during sensing. The sensing

process will start over when the washer is restarted. The

sensing light may also come on during the Wash portion of

the cycle. This is normal.

WASH

You will hear the motor and agitator moving the load. Unlike

traditional washers, the load is not covered with water. Rather

than diluting detergent as done in an agitator-style washer,

this washer delivers the detergent directly to the soils. The

motor sounds may change at different stages in the cycle.

The wash time is determined by the selected soil level.

RINSE

You will hear sounds similar to the wash cycle as the washer

rinses and moves the load. Fabric softener will be added if

the Timed Dispensers Fabric Softener option was selected.

SPIN

The washer spins the load at increasing speeds for proper

water removal, based on the selected cycle and spin speed.

DONE

Once the cycle is complete, this light will come on. Remove

the load promptly for best results.

LID LOCKED

To allow for proper load sensing and spinning,

the lid will lock and the Lid Locked light will turn

on. This light indicates that the lid is locked and

cannot be opened.

If you need to open the lid, touch START/Pause.

The lid will unlock once the washer movement

has stopped. This may take several minutes if the load

was spinning at high speed. Touch and hold START/

PAUSE button again for up to 3 seconds to restart the

cycle.

Avoid opening the lid during sensing. The sensing

process will start over when the washer is restarted.

DEEP FILL & AUTO SENSING WATER LEVEL

STATUS LIGHTS

DEEP FILL

The Deep Fill mode is OFF by default but can be turned

on for any cycle except Sanitize with Oxi & Steam or

Sanitize with Oxi (depending on model), Drain & Spin,

and Clean Washer.

When selecting Deep Fill, the Deep Fill light will turn on

and the Auto Sensing Water Level Status Lights will

turn off.

In Deep Fill mode, the washer will ﬁll to a pre-determined

water level independent of load size, allowing for greater

ﬂexibility in how you wash your clothes.

AUTO SENSING WATER LEVEL STATUS LIGHTS

When the machine is operating in Low Water Wash mode

(Deep Fill is OFF), these status lights provide feedback

on the load size that has been detected. When powering

up the unit in Low Water Wash mode, all three lights will

be lit. The lights will remain lit until the Sensing portion of

the cycle is complete. The machine will now illuminate the

light reﬂecting the detected load size.

NOTE: These lights only function when Deep Fill mode

is OFF.

USING YOUR WASHER

• Empty pockets. Loose change, buttons, or any small object

can pass under the agitator and become trapped, causing

unexpected sounds.

• Sort items by recommended cycle, water temperature,

and colorfastness.

• Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled.

• Separate delicate items from sturdy fabrics.

• Do not dry items if stains remain after washing, because heat

can set stains into fabric.

• Treat stains promptly.

• 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.

Helpful Tips:

• For best performance, use HE liquid detergent when washing

bulky items.

• When washing water-proof or water-resistant items, load

evenly. See “Cycle Guide” for tips and more information on

using the Bedding cycle.

• Use mesh garment bags to help avoid tangling when washing

delicate or small items.

• Turn knits inside out to avoid pilling. Separate lint-takers from

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

lint from towels, rugs, and chenille fabrics.

Always read and follow fabric care label instructions to avoid

damage to your garments.

1. Sort and prepare your laundry 2. Add laundry products

For best performance, load items in

loose heaps evenly around the agitator.

Try mixing different sized items to

reduce tangling.

IMPORTANT: Items need to move

freely for best cleaning and to reduce wrinkling and tangling.

Single-dose laundry packest, color-safe bleach, or fabric softener

crystals can be added to the basket prior to adding laundry.

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

laundry products. Always follow manufacturer’s instructions.

3. Load laundry into washer

6. Add liquid fabric softener or

Oxi to dispenser

Pour a measured amount of liquid fabric

softener or Oxi-type boosters, into tray; always

follow manufacturer’s directions for correct

amount of fabric softener or Oxi based on your load size. Close

dispenser drawer, and then select Oxi option. Oxi is added

during main wash and Fabric Softener is added during rinse.

IMPORTANT: Oxi option must be selected to ensure proper

distribution at correct time in cycle. Do not overﬁll or dilute.

Overﬁlling dispenser will cause fabric softener to immediately

dispense into washer.

If Extra Rinse option is selected, fabric softener will be

dispensed into the last rinse.

It is normal for a small amount of water to remain in the

dispenser at the end of a cycle.

5. Add liquid chlorine bleach

to dispenser

Do not overﬁll, dilute, or use more than 1 cup (236 mL).

Do not use color-safe bleach or Oxi products in the same

cycle with liquid chlorine bleach.

Fabric softener tray

Add a measured amount of HE liquid detergent

into detergent tray. This tray holds 3 oz. (89 mL).

If adding powder HE detergent remove inside tray.

Do not overﬁll tray – adding too much detergent may cause

detergent to be dispensed into the washer too early.

NOTE: Make sure tray is in drawer when using liquid detergent

and removed when using powder detergent. Do not go over the

Max line.

IMPORTANT: Use only High Efﬁciency detergents. The package

will be marked “HE” or “High Efﬁciency.” Low-water washing

creates excessive sudsing with a regular non-HE detergent.

Using regular detergent will likely result in longer cycle times and

reduced rinsing performance. It may also result in component

failures and noticeable mold or mildew. HE detergents 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.

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 and hot wash water settings 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 lid open between uses to help dry

out the washer and prevent the buildup of odor-causing

residue.

Cleaning Your Top Loading Washer

Read these instructions completely before beginning the

routine cleaning processes recommended below. This Washer

Maintenance Procedure should be performed, at a minimum,

once per month or every 30 wash cycles, whichever occurs

sooner, to control the rate at which soils and detergent may

otherwise accumulate in your washer.

Cleaning the Inside of the Washer

To keep your washer odor-free, follow the usage instructions

provided above, and use this recommended monthly cleaning

procedure:

TROUBLESHOOTING

If you experience Possible Causes Solution

Vibration or Off-Balance

Vibration, rocking, or

“walking”

Feet may not be in contact with the

ﬂoor and locked.

Front and rear feet must be in ﬁrm contact with ﬂoor, and washer

must be level to operate properly. See “Installation Instructions”.

Washer may not be level. Check ﬂoor for ﬂexing or sagging. If ﬂooring is uneven, a ¾"

(19 mm) piece of plywood under your washer will reduce sound.

See “Level the Washer” in Installation Instructions.

Vibration during spinning

or washer stopped

Load could be unbalanced. Load items in loose heaps evenly around the agitator. Adding

wet items to washer or adding more water to basket could

unbalance washer.

Avoid washing single items. Balance a single item such as a rug or

jeans jacket with a few extra items. Redistribute the load, close the

lid, and touch and hold START/PAUSE.

Use Bedding cycle for oversized, non-absorbent items such as

Noises - For normal operating sounds, go to www.maytag.com/product_help

Clicking or metallic noises Objects may be caught in washer drain

system.

Empty pockets before washing. Loose items such as coins could fall

between basket and tub or may block pump. It may be necessary to

call for service to remove items.

It is normal to hear metal items on clothing such as metal snaps,

buckles, or zippers touch against the stainless steel basket.

Gurgling or humming Washer may be draining water. It is normal to hear the pump making a continuous humming sound

with periodic gurgling or surging as ﬁnal amounts of water are

removed during the spin/drain cycles.

Humming Load sensing may be occurring. You may hear the hum of the sensing spins after you have started

the washer. This is normal.

Whirring Basket may be slowing down. You may hear the whirring sound of the basket decelerating.

This is normal.

Water Leaks

Check the following for

proper installation:

Washer not level. Water may splash off basket if washer is not level. Check that load

is not unbalanced or tightly packed.

Fill hoses not attached tightly. Tighten ﬁll-hose connection.

Fill hose washers. Make sure all four ﬁll hose ﬂat washers are properly seated.

Drain hose connection. Pull drain hose from washer cabinet and properly secure it to

drainpipe or laundry tub.

Do not place tape over drain opening.

Check household plumbing for leaks

or clogged sink or drain.

Water can backup out of a clogged sink or drainpipe. Check all

household plumbing for leaks (laundry tubs, drain pipe, water pipes,

and faucets.)

Washer not loaded as recommended. Unbalanced loading can cause basket to be out of alignment and

cause water to splash off tub. See “Using Your Washer” for loading

instructions.

Washer not performing as expected

Not enough water

in washer

Load not completely covered

in water.

This is normal operation for Auto Sensing Water Level mode.

The load will not be completely under water. The washer senses

load sizes and adds the correct amount of water for optimal cleaning

performance in High Efﬁciency operation. See “What’s New under

the Lid.”.

Run clean washer cycle to optimize the water level and wash

performance.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If you experience Possible Causes Solution

Washer not performing as expected (cont.)

Washer not draining/

spinning, loads are still

wet, or spin light remains

on (indicating that the

washer was unable to

pump out water within

10 minutes)

Small items may have been caught

in pump or between basket and tub,

which can slow draining.

Empty pockets and use garment bags for small items.

Using a cycle with a low spin speed. Cycles with lower spin speeds remove less water than cycles with

high spin speeds. Use the recommended cycle/spin speed for your

item. To remove extra water in the load, select DRAIN & SPIN. Load

may need to be rearranged to allow even distribution of the load in

the basket.

The washer may be tightly packed or

unbalanced.

Tightly packed or unbalanced loads may not allow the washer to

spin correctly, leaving the load wetter than normal. Evenly arrange

the wet load for balanced spinning. Select the Drain & Spin cycle

to remove excess water. See “Using Your Washer” for loading

recommendations.

Load off balanced. See “Vibration or Off-Balance” in Troubleshooting section for more

information.

Check plumbing for correct drain hose

installation. Drain hose extends into

standpipe farther than 4.5" (114 mm).

Check drain hose for proper installation. Use drain hose form and

securely attach to drainpipe or tub. Do not tape over drain opening.

Lower drain hose if the end is higher than 96" (2.4 m) above the

ﬂoor. Remove any clogs from drain hose.

Too much detergent causing suds to

slow or stop draining and spinning.

Use only HE detergent. Always measure and follow detergent

directions for your load. To remove extra suds, select RINSE &

SPIN. Do not add detergent.

Dry spots on load after

cycle

High speed spins extract more

moisture than traditional top-load

washers.

The high spin speeds combined with air ﬂow during the ﬁnal spin

can cause items near the top of the load to develop dry spots

during the ﬁnal spin. This is normal.

Incorrect or wrong wash

or rinse temperatures

Check for proper water supply. Make sure hot and cold inlet hoses are not reversed.

Both hoses must be attached to both washer and faucet, and have

both hot and cold water ﬂowing to inlet valve.

Check that inlet valve screens are not clogged.

Remove any kinks in hoses.

Energy-saving controlled wash

temperatures.

High Efﬁciency washers use cooler wash and rinse water

temperatures than traditional top-load washer. This includes cooler

hot and warm washes.

Load not rinsed Check for proper water supply. Make sure hot and cold inlet hoses are not reversed.

Both hoses must be attached and have water ﬂowing to the inlet

valve.

Both hot and cold water faucets must be on.

Inlet valve screens on washer may be clogged.

Remove any kinks in the inlet hose.

Not using HE detergent or using too

much HE detergent.

The suds from regular detergent can keep washer from operating

correctly.

Use only HE detergent. Be sure to measure correctly.

Always measure detergent and follow detergent directions based

on load size and soil level.

Washer may be tightly packed. The washer is less efﬁcient at rinsing when tightly packed.

Load garments in loose heaps evenly around the agitator.

Use cycle designed for the fabrics being washed.

Add only 1 or 2 additional garments after washer is started.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If you experience Possible Causes Solution

Washer not performing as expected (cont.)

Sand, pet hair, lint, etc. on

load after washing

Heavy sand, pet hair, lint, and

detergent or bleach residues

may require additional rinsing.

Add an Extra Rinse to the selected cycle.

Load is tangling Washer not loaded as recommended. See “Using Your Washer” section.

Select a cycle with a slower wash action and spin speed, however

items will be wetter than those using a higher speed spin. See the

“Cycle Guide” to match your load with the best cycle.

Load items in loose heaps evenly around the agitator.

Reduce tangling by mixing types of load items. Use the

recommended cycle for the type of items being washed.

Not cleaning or removing

stains

Added more water to washer. Washer senses load size and adds correct amount of water. This is

normal and necessary for clothes to move. It is normal for the wash

load to be not completely covered in water. Added water lifts the

laundry off the agitator, resulting in less effective cleaning.

Washer not loaded as recommended. Washer is less efﬁcient at cleaning when tightly packed.

Load garments in loose heaps evenly around the agitator.

Add only 1 or 2 additional garments after washer is started.

Adding detergent on top of load. Add detergent, Oxi products and color-safe bleach to the bottom of

the basket before adding the load items.

Not washing like colors together. Wash like colors together and remove promptly after the cycle is

complete to avoid dye transfer.

Not using HE detergent or using too

much HE detergent.

The suds from regular detergent can keep washer from operating

correctly.

Use only HE detergent. Be sure to measure correctly.

Always measure detergent and follow manufacturer’s directions

based on load size and soil level.

Not using correct cycle for fabric type. Use a higher soil level cycle option and warmer wash temperature to

improve cleaning.

Use Power Wash

cycle for tough cleaning. See the “Cycle Guide”

to match your load with the best cycle.

Not using dispenser. Use dispenser to avoid chlorine bleach and fabric softener staining.

Load dispenser before starting a cycle.

Do not add products directly onto load.

Incorrect dispenser

operation

Clogged dispensers or laundry

products dispensing too soon.

Do not overﬁll dispenser. Overﬁlling causes immediate dispensing.

Load dispensers before starting a cycle.

It is normal for small amounts of water to be remain in dispenser at

the end of the cycle.

Homes with low water pressure may result in residual powder in the

dispenser. To avoid, select a warmer wash temperature if possible,

depending on your load.

Clean dispenser nozzle and make sure drawer is properly seated.

Liquid chlorine bleach not used in

dispenser.

Use only liquid chlorine bleach in the bleach dispenser.
