WHAT'S NEW UNDER THE LiD?
Cleaning with Less Water
Traditional agitator-style
washer
Washer with low-water
washplate wash system
The most striking difference in your new washer is the low-water
washplate wash system. The washer automatically adjusts the
water level to the load size--no water level selector is needed.
For best performance, it is recommended to load garments in
loose heaps evenly around the 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.
You will hear the motor turn the basket in short pulses to
thoroughly wet the load. This low-water wash method uses less
water and energy compared to a traditional agitator-style
washer.
Choosing the Right Detergent
Use only High Efflciency 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.
Use only High Efficiency (HE) detergent.
Concentrated Cleaning
Low-water cleaning means concentrated cleaning. Rather
than diluting detergent as done in an agitator-style washer,
this washer delivers the detergent directly to the soils.
[
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 washplate
moves the load. And 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.
As the washer dampens and moves the load, the level of the
garments will settle in the basket. This is normal, and does not
indicate that more garments should be added.
IMPORTANT: You will not see a washer basket full of water
as with your past agitator-style washer. It is normal for some
of the load to be above the water line.

WASH TEMP
Wash Temp 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 cool and cold water wash, some warm water
may be added to the washer to maintain a minimum
temperature.
CYCLEOPTIONS
The following options may be added to most cycles.
See "Cycle Guide" for additional details.
RINSE
This option can be used to automatically add a second
rinse to most cycles.
FABRIC SOFTENER
This option must be set to "On" if using fabric softener
during a cycle. It ensures that fabric softener is added
at the correct time in the rinse for even distribution.
STAINBOOST
This option provides enhanced cleaning action for tough
stains. It wJJJadd additional spin and soak time to
the cycle.
WASH CYCLEKNOB
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.

CYCLE STATUS LIGHTS
SENSING WASH RINSE SPIN COMPLETE LID LOCKED
CD CD CD CD CD CD
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/Unlock Lid is pressed, 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 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 the lid during sensing. The sensing
process will start over when the washer is restarted. The
sensing light may also come on during the Soak and Wash
portions of the cycle. This is normal.
WASH
You will hear the motor and washpJate moving the load.
Unlike traditional washers, the load is not covered with
water. Low-water cleaning means concentrated cleaning.
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
bevel.
RINSE
You will hear sounds similar to the wash cycle as the
washer rinses and moves the load. You may hear the motor
turning on briefly (short hum) to move the basket while
filling. Fabric softener will be added if the Fabric Softener-
On option was selected. Some options use spray rinsing.
SPIN
The washer spins the load at increasing speeds for proper
water removal, based on the selected cycle and spin speed.
CYCLECOMPLETE
Once the cycle iscomplete, 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 loci<
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, press START/PAUSE/
Unlock Lid. The lid will unlock once the washer
movement has stopped. This may take several
minutes if the load was spinning at high speed.
Press START/PAUSE/Unlock Lid again to resume
the cycle.

to drain washer after canceling a cycle or completing a cycle
after a power failure.
Use this cycle every 30 washes to keep the inside of your
washer fresh and clean. This cycle uses a higher water level.
Use with liquid chlorine bleach to thoroughly clean the inside
of your washer. This cycle should not be interrupted. See
"Washer Care."
iMPORTANT: Do not place garments or other items in the
washer during the Clean Washer cycle. Use this cycle with an
empty wash tub.
NOTE: If you are using fabric softener, be sure to select Fabric Softener-On option.
_AII rinses are cold.
USING YOUR WASHER
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.
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.
* Empty pockets. Loose change, buttons, or any small obiect
can pass under the washplate and become trapped, causing
unexpected sounds.
* Sort items by recommended cycle, water temperature,
and colorfastness.
* Separate heavily soiled items from Nghfly soiled.
* Separate delicate items from sturdy fabrics.
Do not dry garments 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:
" When washing water-proof or water-resistant items, load
evenly. See _'Cycle Guide" for tips and more information
on using the Bulky/Sheets 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, knJts_ 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.
Add laundry products
Add a measured amount of HE detergent or
single-dose laundry packet into the basket.
If using OxJ=type boosters, color-safe
bleach, or fabric softener crystals, add
to the bottom of the washer basket
before adding clothes.
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.
NOTE: Follow the manufacturer's instructions to determine the
amount of laundry products to use.
8
For best performance_ load garments in loose
heaps evenly around the washplate. Try
mixing different sized items to reduce
tangling.
IMPORTANT: Do not tightly pack or force
garments into washer. Garments need to move
freely. Tightly packed garments can lead to
poor cleaning performance, and may increase
wrinkling and tangling.
_5. Add fabric softener
To dispense fabric softener in the rinse
cycle, this washer has been designed to
allow the use of the Downy Ball °t
Off On
Fabric Softener
dispenser. Pour a measured amount of Downy ® liquid fabric
softener into the Downy Ball ® dispenser, pull the ring tightly to
seal it, and place on top of load. Always follow manufacturer's

replacement on the label with a permanent marker.
NOTE= This washer does not include inlet hoses. See the
"installation Instructions" for more information.
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:
Clean Washer Cycle
This washer has a special cycle that uses higher water volumes
in combination with liquid chlorine bleach to clean the inside
of the washer.
Begin procedure
1. Chlorine Bleach Procedure:
a. Open the washer lid and remove any clothing or items.
b. Add 1 cup (236 mL) of liquid chlorine bleach to the
bleach compartment.
NOTE= Use of more liquid chlorine bleach than is
recommended above could cause washer damage
over time.
c. Close the washer lid.
Do not add any detergent or other chemical to the
washer when following this procedure.
e. Select the CLEAN WASHER cycle.
Press the START/Pause/Unlock Lid button to begin the
cycle. The Clean Washer Cycle Operation is described
below.
f WASHER CARE (cont.)
NOTE= For best results, do not interrupt cycle. If cycle
must be interrupted, press POWER/CANCEL (For models
with no POWER/CANCEL button, press and hold START/
Pause!Unlock Lid for three seconds). After the Clean
Washer cycle has stopped, run a RINSE/SPIN cycle to rinse
cleaner from washer.
Description of Clean Washer Cycle Operation=
1. This cycle will fill to a water level higher than in normal
wash cycles to provide rinsing at a level above the water
line for normal wash cycle.
2. During this cycle, there will be some agitation and spinning
to increase the removal of soils.
After this cycle is complete, leave the lid open to allow
for better ventilation and drying of the washer interior.
Cleaning the Dispensers
After a period of using your washer, you may find some
residue buildup in the washer's dispensers. To remove residue
from the dispensers, wipe them with a damp cloth and towel
dry. Do not attempt to remove the dispensers or trim for
cleaning. The dispensers and trim are not removable. If your
model has a dispenser drawer, however, remove the drawer
and clean it before or after you run the Clean Washer cycle.
Use an all-purpose surface cleaner, if needed.
Cleaning the Outside of the Washer
Use a soft, damp cloth or sponge to wipe away any spills.
Use only mild soaps or cleaners when cleaning external
washer surfaces.
iMPORTANT= To avoid damaging the washer's finish, do not
use abrasive products.
,r
NON-USE AND VACATION CARE
Operate your washer only when you are home. If moving,
or not using your washer for a period of time, follow these
steps:
1. Unplug or disconnect power to washer.
2. Turn off water supply to washer, to avoid flooding due
to water pressure surge.
f WINTER STORAGE CARE
iMPORTANT= To avoid damage, install and store washer
where it will not freeze. Because some water may stay in
hoses, freezing can damage washer. If storing or moving
during freezing weather, winterize your washer.
To winterize washer:
1. Shut off both water faucets; disconnect and drain water
inlet hoses.
2. Put 1qt. (1 L) of R.V.-type antifreeze in basket and run
washer on RINSE!SPIN cycle for about 30 seconds to
mix antifreeze and remaining water.
3. Unplug washer or disconnect power.

are removed during the Spin/Drain cycles.
You may hear the hum of the sensing spins after you have started
the washer. This is normal.
Water may splash oft: basket if washer is not level. Check that
load is not unbalanced or tightly packed.
Tighten fill-hose connection.
Make sure all four flJJ hose flat washers are properly seated.
Pull drain hose from washer cabinet and properly secure it to
drainpipe or laundry tub.

Water can back up out of a clogged sink or drainpipe. Check
all household plumbing for leaks (laundry tubs, drain pipe, water
pipes, and faucets.)
Unbalanced loading can cause basket to be out of alignment
and cause water to splash off: tub. See "Using Your Washer"
for loading instructions.
This is normal operation for an HE low-water washer. The load will
not be completely underwater. The washer senses load sizes and
adds correct amount of water for optimal cleaning. See "What's
New under the Lid."
iMPORTANT: Do not add more water to washer.
Both hoses must be attached and have water flowing to
inlet valve.
Both hot and cold water faucets must be turned on.
Check that inlet valve screens have not become clogged.
Check for any kinks in inlet hoses, which can restrict water flow. j

precauciones b&sicas, incluyendo las siguientes:
[] Lea todas las instrucciones antes de usar la
lavadora.
[] No lave articulos que hayan sido previamente
limpiados, lavados, remojados o humedecidos con
gasolina, solventes para lavar en seco, u otras
sustancias inflamables o explosivas ya que estas
emanan vapores que podrian encenderse o causar
una explosi6n.
[] No agregue gasolina, solventes para lavar en seco,

[] En ciertas condiciones, puede generarse gas
hidrOgeno en un sistema de agua caliente que no se
haya usado por dos semanas o un periodo mayor.
EL GAS HDROGENQ ES EXPLQSlVO. Si no se ha
usado el agua caliente durante dicho periodo, antes
de usar la lavadora, abra todos los grifos de agua
caliente y deje que corra el agua por varios minutos.
Esto liberar& todo el gas hidr6geno que se haya
acumulado. Debido a la inflamabilidad de dicho gas,
no fume ni use una llama abierta durante este lapso.

&QUi_ HAY DE NUEVO DEBAJO DE LA TAPA?
Limpieza con rnenos agua
L
Lavadora de estilo
tradicional con agitador
Lavadora con sistema de
lavado de placa de lavado
y bajo nivel de agua
La mayor diferencia en su nueva lavadora es el sistema de
lavado con placa de lavado y bajo nivel de agua. La lavadora
regula autom6ficamente el nivel del agua de acuerdo al tama_o
de la carga; no se necesita un selector de nivel de agua.
Para obtener el mejor funcionamiento, se recomienda colocar las
prendas en montones flojos y de modo parejo alrededor de la plata
de lavado.
Detecci6n autorn6tica del tama_o de la carga
Una vez que ponga en marcha el ciclo_ la tapa se asegurar6
y la lavadora comenzar6 el proceso de detecci6n para
determinar el nivel de agua adecuado para la carga. Esto puede
tomar varios minutos antes de que comience a Ilenarse de agua.
Encontrar6 una descripci6n paso a paso en la secci6n "Lutes de
estado del ciclo'.
Escuchar6 el motor haciendo girar la canasta con impulsos
cortos para mojar la carga por completo. Este mStodo
de lavado con bajo nivel de agua usa menos agua y energfa,
en comparaci6n con el estilo tradicional de lavadora con
agitador.
Selecci6n del detergente adecuado
Use solamente detergentes de alto rendimiento. El paquete
tendr6 la indicaci6n "HE" o "High Efficiency" (Alto rendimiento).
EI lavado con poca agua crea espuma en exceso con un
detergente regular que no sea HE. El uso de un detergente
comOn probablemente derive en tiempos de ciclo m6s
prolongados y menor rendimiento de enjuague. TambiSn
puede ocasionar fallas en los componentes y moho evidente.
Los detergentes de alto rendimiento (HE) est6n hechos para
producir la cantidad adecuada de espuma para el mejor
rendimiento. Siga las instrucciones del fabricante para
determinar la cantidad de detergente que debe usar.
Use solamente un detergente de Alto rendimiento (HE).
Lirnpieza concentrada
Una limpieza con bajo nivel de agua significa una limpieza
concentrada. En lugar de diluir el detergente como Io hate
una lavadora con agitador_ esta lavadora coloca el detergente
directamente sobre la suciedad.
Sonidos comunes que puede esperar
En diferentes etapas del ciclo de lavado, podr6 escuchar
sonidos y ruidos que son diferentes a los de su lavadora
anterior. Por ejemplo, podr6 escuchar un chasquido y un
zumbido al comienzo del ciclo, cuando el seguro de la tapa
realiza una autoverificaci6n. Se escuchar6n distintos tipos
de zumbidos y runruneos mientras la plata de lavado mueve
la carga. Algunas veces no escuchar6 nada, ya que la lavadora
determina el nivel de agua adecuado para su carga y deja
la ropa en remojo por un tiempo.
A medida que la lavadora moja y mueve la carga, las prendas
de acomodan en la canasta y el nivel de las mismas se asentar6.
Esto es normal y no indica que se deban agregar m6s prendas.
IMPORTANTE: No ver6 una canasta Ilena de agua como en su
lavadora anterior de estilo traditional con agitador. Es normal
que parte de la carga quede por encima del nivel de agua.
