injury to persons when using your appliance, follow basic precautions,
including the following:
WARNING
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Warning and Important Safety Instructions appearing in this manual are not
meant to cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur.
Common sense, caution, and care must be exercised when installing,
maintaining or operating appliance.
Always contact your dealer, distributor, service agent, or manufacturer about
problems or conditions you do not understand.
CAUTION – Hazards or unsafe practices which COULD result in minor
personal injury.

b. Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other
flammable or explosive substances to the wash
water.These substances give off vapors that could
ignite or explode.
c. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be
produced in a hot water system that has not been
used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS
EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been
used for such a period, before using a washing
machine or combination washer-dryer, turn on all
hot water faucets and let the water flow from each
for several minutes.This will release any accumulated
hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, do not smoke
or use an open flame during this time.
d. Do not wash or dry items that are soiled with
vegetable or cooking oil.These items may contain
some oil after laundering. Due to the remaining oil,
the fabric may smoke or catch fire by itself.
7. Do not reach into the appliance if the tub or tumblers
are moving.
8. Do not allow children or pets to play on, in, or in front
of the appliance. Close supervision is necessary when
the appliance is used near children and pets.
9. Do not tamper with controls.
10. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or
attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended
in published user-repair instructions that you
understand and have the skills to carry out.
11. Unplug power supply cord before attempting to service
your washer. Service is to be done only by qualified
service personnel.
12. Keep all laundry aids such as detergents, bleach, etc.,
out of the reach of children, preferably in a locked
cabinet. Use laundry aids only as directed by the
manufacturer. Observe all warnings on container labels.
13. Keep the area around and underneath washer free from
the accumulation of combustible materials, such as lint,
paper, rags, gasoline, and all other flammable vapors and
liquids.
14. Do not use chlorine bleach and ammonia or acids (such
as vinegar or rust remover) in the same wash.
Hazardous fumes can form.
15. Do not machine wash fiberglass materials. Small
particles can stick to fabrics washed in following loads
and cause skin irritation.
16. For flame resistant finishes - follow garment
manufacturer's instructions carefully. Improper
laundering could remove the finish.
17. Before the appliance is removed from service or
discarded, remove the lid to the washing compartment.
18. Inlet hoses are subject to damage and deterioration
over time. Check the hoses periodically for bulges,
kinks, cuts, wear or leaks and replace them every five
years.

ESTIMATED TIME DISPLAY
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Put dry, unfolded clothes loosely in the tub, up to the
top row of holes for a maximum load. Do not pack
down the load.
•Overloading may reduce washing efficiency, cause
excess wear and possibly cause creasing or wrinkling
of the load.
•Wash delicate items such as bras, hosiery and other
lingerie in the “delicates” or “hand wash” cycle
with similar lightweight items.
When washing smaller, bulky items that do not fill the
tub completely such as a rug, one pillow, stuffed toys
or one or two sweaters, a few towels should be
added for improved tumbling and spin performance.
DO NOT overload the washer when washing large,
bulky items such as comforters, blankets or mattress
pads. Items should fit loosely in the tub, below the
top row of holes. Use the “bulky items” cycle for
these loads. The “bulky items” cycle can be
accessed by touching “cycle library” on the Home
screen or use the Cycle Library option pad.
•When washing heavily soiled loads, it is very
important to avoid overloading the washer to assure
good cleaning results.
•To load a forgotten item, press the Start/Pause
touchpad, wait for the Locked light to go out, add the
item, close the lid and press the Start/Pause
touchpad. After a pause of up to one minute, the
cycle will resume.
•Close lid carefully to avoid slamming
NOTE:
• To assure that your additional items get clean, do
not wait more than five minutes after the cycle has
started to add the item.
For detailed information on sorting, pretreating stains, etc., see the enclosed Laundering Tips booklet.

DETERGENT USE
FEATURES
Your Maytag Neptune
®
TL washer is designed
to use either high efficiency (HE) detergents
or regular detergents normally used with
top-loading washers.
•For best cleaning results, use a high efficiency detergent such
as Tide HE, Wisk HE, Cheer HE or Gain HE*. High efficiency
detergents contain suds suppressors which reduce or
eliminate suds.When less suds are produced, the load
tumbles more efficiently and cleaning results are maximized.
When using regular detergent formulated for top-loading
washers, it is important to pay close attention to the soil
level of the load, load size, and water hardness**. To avoid
over-sudsing, reduce the amount of detergent used
with soft water or with small or lightly soiled loads.
The Detergent Dispenser is located under the lid of the
washer. There are two compartments in the dispenser, one
for liquid detergent and liquid color-safe bleach, and one for
powder detergent and powder color-safe bleach.
The dispenser will automatically dispense the detergent and
color-safe bleach (if used) as the washer fills.
The washer has separate compartments for dispensing
detergent and color-safe bleach, chlorine bleach and fabric
softener. All laundry products can be added at once in their
respective compartments before starting the washer.
The detergent dispenser MUST ALWAYS be in place before
starting the washer.
* Brand names are trademarks of the respective manufacturers.
** To determine water hardness in your area, contact your local water utility or
State University Extension office in your area.
AUTOMATIC DISPENSERS
DETERGENT DISPENSER
NOTES:
When using color-safe bleach, add it to the appropriate
dispenser compartment (liquid or powder) with the
detergent. Do not mix liquids and powders in the same
compartment of the dispenser.
• Do not place detergent or softener bottle lids, caps or
dispensers into the washtub. Damage to the load or
washer may result.
18
CHLORINE BLEACH DISPENSER
The Chlorine Bleach Dispenser is located on the left side
of the washer tub.To use the dispenser:
1. Add chlorine bleach to the bleach compartment. DO
NOT exceed the MAX FILL line.The liquid chlorine
bleach compartment will hold 1/3 of a cup.
2. Avoid splashing or over-filling the compartment.
Over-
filling the compartment will not damage the load
but will release the liquid chlorine bleach into
the clothes washer too early to be effective.
3. The washer automatically dispenses bleach into the tub
in the first rinse.This maximizes the effectiveness of the
bleach.
4. The dispenser automatically dilutes liquid chlorine
bleach before it reaches the wash load.
The Fabric Softener Dispenser is located on the right side of
the washer tub.To use the dispenser:
1. Pour the recommended amount of liquid fabric softener
into the softener compartment. For smaller loads use less
than one cap full.
2. Fabric softener should be diluted with warm water until it
reaches the MAX FILL line on the compartment.
Do not
fill above the MAX FILL line. If the compartment is
filled above the MAX FILL line, fabric softener will
enter the clothes washer too early to be effective.
3. This compartment automatically releases liquid fabric
softener at the proper time during the final rinse portion of
the cycle.
*Brand names are trademarks of the respective manufacturers.
FABRIC SOFTENER DISPENSER
NOTES:
• Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach
directly onto the load or into the tub. It is a
powerful chemical and can cause fabric damage,
such as weakening of the fibers or color loss, if
not used properly.
• If you prefer to use color-safe, non-chlorine
bleach, add it to the appropriate detergent
compartment. Do not pour color-safe bleach into
the chlorine bleach dispenser.
NOTES:
• Use the softener compartment only for liquid fabric
softeners.
• Do not use the Downy Ball* with this washer. It will
not add fabric softener at the appropriate time and
may damage the washer. Use the dispenser in the
washer.
19
Turn off the water faucets after finishing the day’s
washing. This will shut off the water supply to the clothes
washer and prevent the unlikely possibility of damage from
escaping water.
Use a soft cloth to wipe up all detergent, bleach or other
spills as they occur.
Clean the following as recommended:
Control Panel – clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use
abrasive powders or cleaning pads. Do not spray cleaners
directly on the panel.
Cabinet – clean with soap and water.
The Detergent, Fabric Softener and Bleach dispensers may need
to be cleaned periodically due to laundry additive buildup.
Detergent Dispenser:
1. Remove the dispenser by releasing the top end from the lid
with a quarter or something similar.
2. Take the dispenser to a sink.
3. Wash thoroughly with plain water and soft brush if necessary.
4. Rinse and dry the dispenser.
5. Replace dispenser in washer lid by fitting the bottom in first,
then snapping the top all the way in. Important: Make sure
all three tabs on the dispenser bottom are securely
fastened to the lid.
6. DO NOT clean the dispenser in the dishwasher.
Chlorine Bleach Dispenser:
The dispenser cover is not removable.
Wipe thoroughly with a clean, damp cloth or paper towel.
CARE AND CLEANING
CLEANING THE DISPENSERS
Fabric Softener Dispenser:
The rear portion of the fabric softener dispenser cover is
removable for cleaning.
1. Grasp the rear portion of the cover and pull straight up.
2. Wash with hot, soapy water and a soft cloth. Rinse and
dry thoroughly.
3. Wipe dispenser compartment with a dry paper towel to
remove buildup. Follow with a clean, damp cloth or paper
towel.
4. Replace dispenser cover.
5. DO NOT clean the dispenser cover in the dishwasher.
The interior of the washer should be cleaned periodically to
remove dirt, soil, odor or bacteria residue that may remain in
the washer as a result of washing clothes. We recommend
taking the following steps every 60 to 120 days to clean and
freshen your washer interior. The frequency with which the
washer should be cleaned and freshened depends on factors
such as usage, the amount of dirt, soil or bacteria being run
through your washer, or the use of cold water.
To clean and freshen the washer interior:
1. Select Normal cycle, hot wash/cold rinse water
temperature, heavy soil level and the max extract spin
option.
CLEANING THE INTERIOR
2. Press Start/Pause and wait until the washer has stopped
filling with water
When the washer has stopped filling with water:
1. Press Start/Pause and lift the lid.
2. Add 1/2 cup liquid chlorine bleach to the water in the tub.
3. Close the lid and press Start/Pause to restart the washer.
4. Allow the washer to complete the cycle.
NOTE:
The dispenser MUST ALWAYS be in place before starting
the washer.
