Cycle Guides

You can use this washer/dryer to wash only, dry only, or wash and dry. This washer/dryer has a unique user interface to help you

select the best wash cycle for your load. The “What to Wash/How to Wash” layout guides you to the optimal cycle in two easy steps:

First determine what items are in the load that you are trying to wash. Use that to guide your “What to Wash” selection. Then determine

how you want the washer to wash them and select the appropriate “How to Wash” selection. Selecting “What to Wash” will

automatically select a default “How to Wash selection,” so selecting a “How to Wash” is optional. See chart below for more details.

Settings and options shown in bold are default settings for that wash cycle. For best fabric care, choose the cycle, options, and

settings that best t the load being washed. Always read and follow fabric care labels and laundry product instructions. Avoid tightly

packing the washer/dryer. The washer/dryer will not rinse well or spin correctly if tightly packed. Loading the drum half full or less will

improve washing and drying performance and cycle time. Not all settings are available with each cycle, and some options cannot be

used together.

Using the Load & Go

™

Bulk Dispenser

Follow the steps below to ll the Load & Go

™

bulk dispenser

when using the washer for the rst time, or when the low detergent

icon or low fabric softener icon on the display indicate that

the detergent or fabric softener level is running low.

1. Open the bulk container lid on the top of the washer/dryer.

2. Lift the ll door on the

Liquid Detergent dispenser

(Dispenser 1). Add liquid HE

detergent up to the “MAX”

line. Do not overll. Close the

ll door. It will click into place.

NOTE: If Dispenser 1 is empty,

you may choose to add only

enough liquid HE detergent

for one load.

3. Lift the ll door on the Liquid

Fabric Softener dispenser

(Dispenser 2). Add liquid fabric

softener up to the “MAX” line.

Do not overll. Close the ll

door. It will click into place.

NOTE: If Dispenser 2 is empty,

you may choose to add only

enough liquid fabric softener

for one load.

4. Slowly close the bulk

container lid. Make sure

it is completely closed.

5. Make sure that the bulk

dispenser is active. Use

the Tools button to make sure that

both Dispenser 1 and Dispenser 2

are active and that the detergent

concentration is correct. See

Step 11 on page 13.

NOTES:

n Dispenser 2 may be used as a second Liquid HE Detergent

dispenser. Use the Tools button (go to “Load & Go

™

Dispenser

2”) to change the content in Dispenser 2 and set the detergent

concentration. Make sure that the other dispenser is disabled.

n The entire Load & Go

™

bulk container can be easily removed

for ease of cleaning.

n Thoroughly clean the Liquid Detergent dispenser (Dispenser 1)

before switching to a different brand of detergent.

n Thoroughly clean the Liquid Fabric Softener dispenser

(Dispenser 2) before switching from liquid fabric softener

to liquid detergent, before switching back from liquid

detergent to liquid fabric softener, or before switching

to a different brand of detergent.

IMPORTANT:

n Do not use chlorine bleach in this

washer/dryer. Chlorine bleach will

damage it.

n Do not add a single-dose laundry packet to the bulk dispenser.

n Do not use powdered HE detergent in the bulk dispenser.

Choosing the Right Detergent

Use only High Efciency detergents. The package will be marked

“HE” or “High Efciency.” Low-water washing creates excessive

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

will likely result in longer cycle times and reduced rinsing

performance. It may also result in component malfunction and,

over time, buildup of mold or mildew. HE detergents should be

low-sudsing and quick-dispersing to produce the right amount

of suds for the best performance. They should hold soil in

suspension so it is not redeposited onto clean clothes. Not all

detergents labeled as High Efciency are identical in formulation

and their ability to reduce suds. For example, natural, organic,

or homemade HE detergents may generate a high level of suds.

Always follow the detergent manufacturer’s instructions to

determine the amount of detergent to use.

Use only High Efciency

(HE) detergent.

About Detergent Concentration

Today’s liquid HE detergents are concentrated. Most brands of

concentrated HE detergent will show the level of concentration

on the bottle.

However, if the detergent bottle does not give the concentration,

it can be easily calculated. Just divide the package size in uid

ounces by the number of loads. Then refer to the chart below

to nd the concentration.

Set the concentration level setting on the washer by using

the Tools button (see Step 11 on page 13). If you do not get

your desired cleaning results, set the concentration level to a

lower concentration number. If you have excess suds, set the

concentration level to a higher concentration number.

Concentration Number of ounces ÷ number of loads

2X 1.5–2.49 (44.4 ml–73.6 ml)

3X 0.9–1.49 (26.6 ml–44.1 ml)

4X 0.7–0.89 (20.7 ml–26.3 ml)

5X 0.5–0.69 (14.8 ml–20.4 ml)

6X 0.3–0.49 (8.9 ml–14.5 ml)

Use only High Efciency

(HE) detergent.

Chlorine

Bleach

10

Powdered HE detergent, single-dose laundry packets, Oxi-type

boosters, or scented crystals can be added to the drum prior to

adding laundry. Make sure that the Load & Go

™

bulk dispenser

is disabled or off (see Step 11 on page 13), and skip Step 4 when

using powdered HE detergent or single-dose laundry packets.

NOTES:

n Always follow manufacturer’s instructions.

n Do not use chlorine bleach.

Using the All-In-One Washer/Dryer

Sort items by recommended cycle, water temperature,

and colorfastness. Separate heavily soiled items from lightly

soiled. Separate delicate items from sturdy fabrics. Treat

stains promptly and check for colorfastness by testing stain

remover products on an inside seam.

IMPORTANT:

n Empty pockets. Loose change, buttons, or any small

object can plug pumps and may require a service call.

n Close zippers, fasten hooks, tie strings and sashes,

and remove non-washable trim and ornaments.

n Mend rips and tears to avoid further damage to items

during washing.

n Turn knits inside out to prevent pilling. Separate lint-takers

from lint-givers. Synthetics, knits, and corduroy fabrics will

pick up lint from towels, rugs, and chenille fabrics.

n Do not dry garments if stains remain after washing,

because heat can set stains into fabric.

n Always read and follow fabric care labels and laundry

product instructions. Improper usage may cause damage

to your garments.

1. Sort and prepare your laundry

First wash cycle without laundry

Before washing clothes for the rst time, set up the Load & Go

™

bulk dispenser (see page 9). Choose the Regular (What to Wash)

and Quick (How to Wash) cycle and run it without clothes. Use

only HE detergent. This initial cycle serves to ensure the interior

is clean and the bulk dispenser is primed and ready for use

before washing clothes.

If using liquid HE detergent in both Dispenser 1 and Dispenser 2,

you will need to run a second cycle without laundry as indicated

above to prime Dispenser 2 and clean the interior. Using the

Tools button, make sure that Dispenser 1 is disabled when

priming Dispenser 2 for detergent.

2. If desired, instead of liquid detergent,

add powdered HE detergent and/or

laundry products

Place a load of sorted items loosely in the washer/dryer.

Items need to move freely for best cleaning and to reduce

wrinkling and tangling. If using the drying option, loading

the drum half full or less and not interrupting the drying cycle

by opening the door will improve drying performance and

cycle time. Close the washer/dryer door by pushing it rmly

until the latch clicks.

n Mix large and small items and avoid washing single items.

Load evenly.

n Wash small items in mesh garment bags. For multiple

items, use more than one bag and ll bags equally.

3. Load laundry into washer/dryer

11

4. Add liquid HE detergent to Load & Go

™

bulk dispenser (if bulk dispenser is

not already loaded or if low detergent

icon on display is lit), if desired

See page 9 for instructions on how to ll the liquid detergent

bulk dispenser (Dispenser 1). Press the TOOLS button and make

sure that the bulk dispenser is active. See Step 11 on page 13.

NOTE: Do not add powdered HE detergent, single-dose

laundry packets, Oxi-type boosters, or scented crystals

to the bulk dispenser. They will not dispense correctly.

See page 9 for instructions on how to ll the fabric softener

bulk dispenser (Dispenser 2). Press the TOOLS button and

make sure that the bulk dispenser is active. See Step 11

on page 13.

IMPORTANT:

n

Do not overll or dilute fabric softener.

n

Do not spill or drip any fabric softener onto the clothes.

n

Do not use scented crystals in the bulk dispenser.

They will not dispense correctly.

n

Do not mix fabric softener and detergent in Dispenser 2

at the same time.

5. Add liquid fabric softener to Load & Go

All-In-One Washer/Dryer Maintenance

WASHER/DRYER CARE

Recommendations to Help Keep Your Washer/Dryer

Clean and Performing at its Best

1. Always use High Efciency (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 or hot water washes 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/dryer door slightly ajar

between uses to help dry out the washer/dryer and

avoid the buildup of odor-causing residue.

4. Periodically clean residue from all interior surfaces of the

glass window. For better care, wipe the entire inside of the

glass door with a damp cloth.

Cleaning Your Front-Loading Washer/Dryer

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/dryer.

Cleaning the Door Seal

1. Open the washer/dryer door and remove any clothing

or items from the washer/dryer.

2. Inspect the seal between the door opening and the drum

for stained areas or soil buildup. Pull back the seal to

inspect all areas under the seal and to check for foreign

objects.

3. If stained areas or soil buildup are found, wipe down

these areas of the seal using the following procedure:

When the cycle is complete, gently pull back the rubber

door seal and clean the entire surface with the textured

side of an affresh

®

Machine Cleaning Wipe.
