These items include acetone, denatured alcohol,

gasoline, kerosene, some liquid household

cleaners, some spot removers, turpentine, waxes

and wax removers.

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.

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

Operutin9Tips

Detergent

• Use either liquid or granular laundry detergent. For

best results, he sure detergent is added to the

washer BEFORE the load and he sure the wash

water is above 65 ° E

• Use the correct amount of detergent for the load size,

soil level and water conditions. Use more detergent if

you have hard water and very soiled loads.

If you have soft water or a lightly soiled load, use less

detergent. (See manufacturer's instructions.)

• Wipe up any detergent spills on the washer.

• Put dry, unfolded clothes loosely in the tub, up to the

top row of holes for a maximum load.

• Do not wrap large items like sheets around the agitator.

• Mix large and small items for best circulation. Wash

bulky items like blankets separately.

• When laundering wrinkle free items or items of

delicate construction, washable woolens or loosely

knit items, never use less than the MEDIUM water

level setting. This will minimize shrinkage, wrinkling

and pulling of seams.

• For best results add the detergent to the washtub

before adding the load.

• Close lid carefully to avoid slamming.

Additional tips

• If the washer stops during the spin, it may be due to

an unevenly distributed load. If this happens, push in

the control knob, open the lid, redistribute the load,

close the lid and pull out the control knob. The spin

will resume at the point it was interrupted.

• The washer will pause briefly throughout each cycle.

These pauses are normal.

• This washer is designed so that it will not agitate or

spin when the lid is open. It will, however, fill with the

lid open so water is available for pretreating stains or

diluting fabric softener.

• If you open the lid during a cycle, the washer will

stop. When the lid is closed and the control knob

pulled out, the washer will continue the cycle at the

point it was interrupted.

UsingtheControls

SpecialFeatures

Bleach Dispenser

The dispenser automatically dilutes liquid chlorine

bleach before it reaches your wash load. To use, follow

these steps:

1. Measure liquid chlorine bleach carefully, following

the instructions on the bottle.

2. Add the bleach to the dispenser before adding the

load. Avoid splashing or over-filling the dispenser.

Fabric Softener Dispenser

The dispenser automatically releases liquid fabric

softener at the proper time during the cycle. To use,

follow these steps:

1. Pour a measured amount of fabric softener into

the dispenser to fill line only.

2. If fabric softener comes below line, add warm

water.

Note

Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach

directly onto the load or into the wash tub. It is a

powerful chemical and can cause fabric damage,

such as tearing or color loss, if not used properly.

If you prefer to use color-safe, non-chlorine

bleach, pour it into the wash tub with your

detergent. Do not pour non-chlorine bleaches into

the bleach dispenser.

Note

• Do not stop the washer during the first spin. This

will cause the dispenser to empty too soon.

• Never pour fabric softener directly on the load. It

will leave spots and stains.

• Use the dispenser for liquid fabric softeners only.

Pour liquid chlorine bleach into

bleach dispenser.

Pour liquid fabric softener into cup and

dilute with warm water.

Care&Cleanin9

Turn off the water faucets after finishing the day's

washing. This will shut off the water supply to the

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:

Oontrol Panel - clean with a soft, damp cloth and

glass cleaner. Do not use abrasive powders or

cleaning pads.

Cabinet - clean with soap and water followed with an

appliance wax, if desired.

Fabric Softener Dispenser

1. Pull the dispenser off of the top of the agitator.

2. Soak for one hour in sink or container in hot

water and dishwashing liquid.

3. Hold hands over top and bottom of dispenser

and shake to loosen buildup.

4. Rinse with clean, hot water.

5. Repeat process if necessary.

6. Replace dispenser on

agitator.

Do not use dishwashing liquid

inside the washer. Oversudsing

can Occur.

Lint Filter - it is self-

cleaning and requires

no maintenance. The

filter is located under

the agitator on the

bottom of the

washtub. During the

wash and rinse portion

of the cycle, lint is collected on the filter. Then

during the spin and drain the filter is cleaned

automatically.

Interior - hard water deposits may be removed, if

needed, using a recommended cleaner labeled

washer safe.

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. Add a measured amount of chlorine bleach to

the bleach dispenser, following package

directions.

2. Add 1/4 cup of detergent to the tub.

3. Run the washer through a complete cycle using

hot water.

/4. Repeat the process if necessary.

Storin9thekVusher

Washers can be damaged if water is not removed from

hoses and internal components before storage. Prepare

the washer for storage as follows:

• Select Regular, eight minutes, and add one cup of

chlorine bleach OR white vinegar to a full load of

water without clothes. Run the washer through a

complete cycle.

Turn the water faucets off and disconnect the inlet

hoses.

Advance the cycle control knob to Spin and lower

the drain hose to eliminate any water that may be in

the drain hose.

Disconnect the washer from the electrical supply

and leave the washer lid open to let air circulate

inside the tub.

Distributeur de javellisant

liquide

avant qu'il atteigne le linge. Pour I'utiliser, proc6der comme

suit :

1. Mesurer la quantit6 de javellisant liquide avec soin en

suivant les instructions sur le r6cipient.

2. Verser le javellisant dans le distributeur avant d'ajouter

le linge, l_viter les 6claboussures ou le d6bordement du

distributeur.

Distributeur d'assouplissant

Ce distributeur ajoute I'assouplissant liquide au moment

voulu du cycle. Pour I'utiliser, proc6der comme suit :

1. Verser la quantit6 voulue de liquid dans le godet,

jusqu'au rep6re de remplissage seulement.

2. Si le liquide n'atteint pas le rep6re, ajouter de I'eau ti6de.

Remarque

Ne jamais verser de javellisant liquide non dilu6

directement sur le linge ou dans la cuve. Ce produit

chimique est puissant et peut endommager les tissus,

en les d6chirant ou d6colorant, s'il n'est utilis6

correctement.

Lorsqu'un javellisant sans chlore et sans danger pour

les couleurs est utilis6, le verser dans la cuve avec le

d_tergent. Ne pas verser de javellisant sans chlore dans

le distributeur de javellisant.

Remarque

Ne pas arr6ter la machine durant le premier essorage.

Le distributeur se viderait trop tot.

Ne jamais verser d'assouplissant directement sur le

linge. II laisserait des trainees et des taches.

uniquement.
