the washer owner to have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
Flooring
To minimize noise and vibration, install the
washer on a level, solidly constructed floor
capable of supporting the washer without
flexing or bouncing.
The washer must be installed on firm flooring to
minimize vibration during the spin cycle.
Concrete flooring is best, but a wood floor is
sufficient, provided it is built to FHA standards.
The floor under the washer must not slope more
than 1 inch (2.5 cm) from front to back or side to
side.
Installing on carpeting and soft tile surfaces is
not recommended.
Never install the washer on a platform or weakly
supported structure.
Floor Installation
To ensure sufficient clearance for water inlet
hoses, drain hose and airflow, allow minimum
clearances of at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) at the sides
and 4 inches (10 cm) behind the washer. Be sure
to allow for wall, door, or floor moldings that may
increase the required clearances.
Minimum vertical space from floor to overhead
shelves, cabinets, ceilings, etc., is 58 inches (147
cm).

Delicate articles should not be mixed with heavy or
sturdy fabric types. Washing heavy fabrics with
delicates can result in poor wash performance for
the heavy fabrics and possible damage to the
delicates.
Lint Type
Some fabrics attract and bind lint to them while
others give off lint in the laundry process. Avoid
mixing these lint collectors and lint producers in
the same load. Mixing these fabrics will result in
pilling and linting on the lint collectors. (For
example, lint collector - knit sweater; lint producer
- terry cloth towels.)

18 OPERATION
Loading the Washer
General Tips
Check and empty pockets. Paper clips, coins,
matches, etc. can damage clothing and the
washer.
Close zippers and hooks, and tie drawstrings to
prevent snagging or tangling of clothes.
Pretreat heavily stained areas for best results.
Brush off heavy soil, dust, and hair from items
before washing. Excess dirt or sand can abrade
other fabrics and lead to poor wash
performance.
Combine large and small items in the tub. Load
large items first. Large items should not be more
than half of total load.
For best results, load dry items only. If washing
very wet items, wring out excess water before
loading, or run a Spin Only cycle to extract
excess water before adding detergent and
starting the desired cycle.
The washer can be fully loaded, but the tub
should not be tightly packed with items. The lid
of the washer must close easily.
The washer will not fill or operate with the lid
open.
Do not overload the tub. Clothes should fit
loosely in the tub under the maximum fill line
a.
Loading clothes over the fill line may result in
damage to clothing and the washer.
- Do not press down on items while stacking
them in the tub.
- Load clothes loosely, and do not overfill the
tub. Clothes need room to circulate in order to
get clean.
Bulky Items
Do not wash entire pillows or cushions. Remove
pillow or cushion inserts and wash the covers
only.
•Use the Bedding cycle for large or bulky items
such as poly-filled jackets, comforters, pillows,
etc. These items may not be as absorbent as
other laundry items and should be sorted into a
separate wash load for best performance.
Bulky items should be placed as far down in the
tub as possible for best performance. Always
place buoyant items at the bottom of the tub.
The washer will automatically detect the load
size. Because of the high efficiency wash system,
the water level may not completely cover the
load.
Small Items
Do not wash a single small item. Add enough
similar items to the load to prevent an out-of-
balance load.
Wash small, light items in a mesh bag. Small
items can get caught in the impeller at the
bottom of the tub, and brassiere hooks can
damage other items or the tub.
General Tips for Models with an
Agitator
If the appliance uses a tall, vertical spindle in the
drum, follow these instructions when loading the
washer.
For best performance, load clothes as shown.
3
19OPERATION
ENGLISH
To reduce tangling, load items loosely in even
piles surrounding the agitator.
Do not load a single bulky item unless it fills the
drum. Load several small bulky items around the
agitator to balance the load.
Do not load bulky items such as pet beds that
are too large or stiff to move easily around the
agitator. Impeding the motion of the drum or
agitator could cause damage to the items or the
washer.
Adding Cleaning Products
About Detergent Use
This washer is designed for use with only HE (High-
Efficiency) detergents.
HE detergents produce fewer suds, dissolve
more efficiently to improve washing and rinsing
performance, and help to keep the interior of
the washer clean. Using detergent that is not HE
may cause oversudsing and unsatisfactory
performance which could result in error codes,
cycle failure, and washer damage.
Detergents designated as HE-compatible may
not provide optimal results.
For proper wash performance, always measure
detergent using the measuring device provided
by the detergent manufacturer. For an average
load, use less than half of the recommended
maximum. Use less detergent for soft water,
light soil, or smaller loads.
Use extra care when measuring 2X and 3X
concentrated detergents because even a small
amount of extra detergent can lead to problems.
Never use more than the maximum amount of
detergent recommended by the manufacturer.
Using too much detergent can lead to
oversudsing, poor rinsing, detergent buildup in
clothing, and residue buildup that can contribute
to odors in the washer.
Do not use more than one single-use detergent
pack or detergent tablet in the washer. Using too
much detergent may cause oversudsing and
unsatisfactory performance. Reduce detergent
amount or add an extra rinse if detergent
residue is left on fabrics. To add an extra rinse,
select the Extra Rinse option.

Single-Use Detergent Packs / Gel or
Tablet Detergents
Place liquid or powdered detergent packs, or gel
or tablet detergents in the tub before loading
laundry. Do not place these detergents in the
dispenser.
About the Dispensers
The automatic dispenser consists of two
compartments which hold:
Liquid fabric softener
Liquid or powdered detergent for main wash
CAUTION
Do not place or store laundry products, such as
detergent, bleach, or liquid fabric softener, on
top of your washer. These products can damage
the washer’s finish and controls.
20 OPERATION
NOTE
Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations
when adding cleaning products.
Using the Detergent and Softener
Dispenser Drawer
To add detergent and fabric softener to the
automatic dispenser drawer:
1 Open the dispenser drawer.
2 Load the laundry products into the
appropriate compartments.
a Liquid fabric softener compartment
b Main wash liquid detergent cup
c Insert
d Main wash powdered detergent
compartment
3 Gently close the detergent dispenser drawer
before starting the cycle.
Slamming the drawer closed may result in
the detergent overflowing into another
compartment or dispensing into the drum
earlier than programmed.
Be careful not to get a hand caught in the
drawer while closing.
It is normal for a small amount of water to
remain in the dispenser compartments at
the end of the cycle.
Main Wash Detergent Compartment
This compartment holds laundry detergent for the
main wash cycle. Either powdered or liquid
detergent may be used in this compartment.
The detergent is added to the load at the
beginning of the cycle. Always use HE (High-
Efficiency) detergent with your washer.
Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Using too
much detergent can result in detergent buildup
in clothing and the washer.
Liquid or powdered color-safe bleach may be
added to the main wash compartment with
detergent of the same type. Do not mix liquids
and powders.
When using liquid detergent, make sure the
liquid detergent cup and insert are in place.
When using powdered detergent, remove the
insert and liquid detergent cup from the
dispenser. Powdered detergent will not dispense
with the liquid detergent cup and insert in place.
If you use a detergent that does not dissolve
easily or a detergent with high viscosity, it will
leave a residue and clog the dispenser.
Fabric Softener Compartment
This compartment holds liquid fabric softener,
which is automatically dispensed during the final
rinse cycle.
Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Using too
much fabric softener may stain clothes.
Dilute concentrated fabric softeners with warm
water.
Never pour fabric softener directly onto the load
or into the tub.
Using the Liquid Bleach Dispenser
The bleach dispenser is a separate compartment
at the left front of the tub opening.
WARNING
Do not mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or
acids such as vinegar or rust/scale remover.
Mixing chemicals like these can produce a lethal
gas, resulting in severe injury or death.
NOTE
Do not add powdered bleach to this dispenser.
The bleach dispenser is designed to dispense
liquid bleach only. Powdered or liquid color-safe
bleach will not dispense properly.
Do not place laundry items on top of the bleach
dispenser when loading and unloading the
washer.
Never add more than one cup of bleach and do
not exceed the maximum fill line since this can
