WASHER SAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety

messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.

This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."

These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately

follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow

instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can

happen if the instructions are not followed.

Select a normal cycle and press Start. Allow it to complete one whole cycle.

BENEFITS AND FEATURES

Your washer has several benefits and features which are summarized here. Some items may

not apply to your model.

High-Efficiency Wash System

Your new top loading, high-efficiency washer saves you time by allowing you to do fewer,

larger loads. It also conserves resources and also lowers your water and energy bills by using

the following innovations.

IntelliFill 'M Water Level Control

This washer senses the load size and composition through a series of fills and wash motion. [t

then adjusts the water level for the best cleaning and rinsing performance. It eliminates the

guesswork. The water level is just right for every wash load size.

NOTE: You may notice during a cycle that the wash load is not completely submerged in

water. This is normal for your washer.

AutoTemp Control

The Auto [emp Control system on this washer electronically senses and maintains a uniform

water temperature by regulating incoming water temperatures. Using Auto Temp Control will

help dissolve detergent.

Washer Impeller System

Your new washer works differently than most washers that you are accustomed to. [-he most

striking difference is that the washer has an washer impeller system. It uses this new

innovative washer impeller at the bot'_om of the wash basket to move your load through a

mixture of water and detergent. [he load is moved from the outside toward the middle with

items coming up in the center and down on the outside edges.

Dispensers

The dispensers make your washer truly automatic. It is unnecessary for you to return to the

washer during the cycle to add detergent, bleach, or fabric softener.

laundry products are added to the load at the proper time in the wash cycle.

Spin Speeds

This washer is preset to automatically select the spin speed based on the cycle selected.

Depending on your wash load, you can change the preset speeds. The spin speed on this

washer is nearly twice as fast as that of a conventional washer. You may notice different

sounds during a spin cycle because of this higher speed.

Stain Cycle

The Stain Cycle option uses Direct Inject Cleaning Action to help ensure better soil and stain

removal. Stain Cycle reduces the need for pretreatment and is safe for all washable fabrics.

Water flushes through the dispenser to dissolve the detergent. The detergent mixture is then

sprayed onto the load while the washer spins at low speed.This cleaning action will last up to

5 minutes depending on the cycle selected.

The washer then stops spinning, fills with water to the appropriate level and continues

washing with the selected cycle.

High Efficiency (HE) Detergent

This washer is designed for High Efficiency (HE) detergent use only. HE detergents are made to

produce the right amount of suds and give the best performance in low water wash systems.

Innovative Features

Your new washer includes these features that help to reduce noise, increase the ease of use

and improve wash performance.

Electronic Controls

Electronic controls with preset cycles are easy to use whether you are a beginner or an

"expert."

Quiet Operation

This washer is insulated with sound-dampening materials to reduce washer operation sounds

and noises. On some models, an additional tub wrap is added for extra dampening of

vibration and sound. [he washer has an additional bottom sound pad that is included

separately for installation by the customer.

Suspension System

[b reduce washer "walk" and "out of balance" conditions, your new washer combines:

• 4 Spring damper struts to isolate vibration

• Balance ring at the top and bottom of the wash basket to minimize vibration

• Operating software designed to sense and correct off-balance loads

Clean Washer Cycle

This washer features an easy-to-use Clean Washer cycle that thoroughly cleans the inside of

your washing machine using higher water volumes in combination with liquid chlorine

bleach.

Stainless Steel Basket

The stainless steel basket is corrosion resistant and enables higher spin speeds for more water

extraction, reducing drying time.

Self-clean Wash and Rinse Filter System

[his washer filters 100% of the wash and rinse water. [he water is filtered then recirculated.

The force filter traps sand and dirt, flushing them down the drain, so they are not redeposited

onto the clean clothes.

Delay Wash

Delay Wash allows you to load your washer and pause the start of the cycle for up to

10 hours.

End of Cycle Signal

The End of Cycle Signal produces an audible sound when the wash cycle is finished. This

signal is helpful when you are removing items from the washer as soon as it stops.

Spray Rinse

This washer is designed to save water by rinsing tile load with a spray rinse instead of a deep

water rinse on some cycles. When using fabric softener, always select the Fabric Softener

button or select Extra Rinse.

POWER

NOTE: Your washer model may vary from the model shown.

Fire Hazard

Never place items in the washer that are dampened

"l IE" or 'I ligh Efficiency." fhis wash system, along with less water, will create too much

sudsing with a regular non-HE detergent. Using regular detergent will likely result in washer

errors, longer cycle times and reduced rinsing performance. [t 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.

LAUNDRY TIPS

Preparing clothes for washing

Follow these recommendations to help you prolong the life of your garments.

• Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package for this type of detergent will be marked

"HE" or "High Efficiency." This wash system, along with less water, will create too much

sudsing with a regular non-HE detergent. Using regular detergent will likely result in washer

errors, 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 pertormance. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to

determine the amount of detergent to use.

Use only "HE" High Effici_ulcy deterD'nL

• Close zippers, snaps, and hooks to avoid snagging other items. Remove pins, buckles, and

other hard objects to avoid scratching the washer interior. Remove non-washable trim and

ornaments.

• Empty pockets and turn them inside out.

• [urn down cuffs; brush away lint and dirt.

• [urn synthetic knits inside out to avoid pilling.

• Tie strings and sashes so they will not tangle.

• Mend tears, loose hems, and seams.

• Treat spots and stains.

• Stained or wet garments should be washed promptly for best results.

• [urn wool knits inside out before washing.

Sorting

• Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled ones, even if they would normally be

washed together. Separate lint-givers (towels, chenille) from lint-takers (corduroy,

synthetics, permanent press). When possible, turn lint-givers inside out.

• Separate dark colors from light colors, colorfast items from noncolorfast items.

• Sort by fabric and construction (sturdy cottons, knits, delicate items/.

• Separate bulky, nonabsorbent items such as comforters, pillows and poly-filled jackets.

Use the Bulky cycle for these items.

• Separate sheets, pillowcases and towels and use the Sheets cycle for these items. For best

performance, drop items in loose heaps evenly around the basket wall and do not load

items directly on the impeller for this cycle.

• When washing waterproof/water-resistant items such as plastic lined mattress pads,

shower curtains, tarps, jackets, or sleeping bags, select the lowest spin speed setting

available for the cycle and washer model being used.

Unloading

• Remove clothes from washer after the cycle is completed. Metal objects such as zippers,

snaps, and buckles may rust if left in the washer basket for a long time.
