Lid Locked
To allow for higher spin speeds, the lid will lock and the
Lid Locked light will turn on. When this light is lit, the
lid is locked and cannot be opened. When this light is
blinking, the washer is paused. When this light is off, the
lid can be opened. After a cycle is started, water will enter
washer and then lock. If you need to open the lid to add
a garment after this point, you must press START/Pause/
Unlock Lid and wait for the lid to unlock. The lid will only
unlock after washer movement has stopped. Depending
on when in the cycle you try to pause, it may take several
seconds to several minutes for the lid to unlock. Press
START/Pause/Unlock Lid to resume the cycle.
Sensing
This washer will perform a series of spins to check for load
balance. During this time, a series of clicks and a whirring
noise signal that sensing technology is determining if there
is an off-balance load.
IMPORTANT:
■After the washer basket lls to the selected water level, the lid must be closed before the wash cycle can start.
If lling stops with the lid open, close lid and press START button.
■Fabric Softener option must be set to Yes to ensure fabric softener dispenses at the correct time (on some models).
Sounds
At different stages of the wash cycle, you may hear
sounds and pauses that are different from those of your
previous washer. For example, you may hear a clicking
and hum at the beginning of the cycle as the lid lock
goes through a self-test. There will be different kinds of
humming and whirring sounds as the agitator tests for
load balance or moves the load. And, sometimes, you may
hear nothing at all as the washer allows time for clothes to
soak.
Spray Rinse
Select cycles default to a spray rinse. During these cycles,
you will hear water enter the washer as the tub spins,
allowing the rinse water to penetrate clothes. Check the
“Cycle Guide” for details.
WHAT’S NEW UNDER THE LID?
Your new washer will operate differently than your past agitator-style washer.

4
LOAD SIZE
Select the setting most suitable for your load. Extra Small
or Small (depending on model) will add a low amount of
water for smaller loads and Large will add the most amount
of water for large or bulky loads. Items need to move freely.
Tightly packing can lead to poor cleaning performance, and
may increase wrinkling and tangling.
WASH TEMP or TEMPERATURE
Temperature senses and maintains uniform water
temperatures by regulating incoming hot and cold water.
Select a wash temperature based on the type of fabric
and soils being washed. For best results and following
the garment label instructions, use the warmest wash
water safe for your fabric.
■On some models and cycles, warm and hot water may
be cooler than your previous washer.
■Even in a cold and cool water wash, some warm
water may be added to the washer to maintain
a minimum temperature.

WASHER MAINTENANCE
Replace inlet hoses after 5 years of use to reduce the risk
of hose failure. Periodically inspect and replace inlet hoses
if bulges, kinks, cuts, wear, or leaks are found.
When replacing your inlet hoses, mark the date of
replacement on the label with a permanent marker.
NOTE: This washer does not include inlet hoses. See the
“Installation Instructions” for more information.
WATER INLET HOSES

10
Operate your washer only when you are home. If moving, or
not using your washer for a period of time, follow these steps:
1. Unplug or disconnect power to washer.
2. Turn off water supply to washer, to avoid ooding due to
water pressure surge.
WINTER STORAGE CARE
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage, install and store washer
where it will not freeze. Because some water may stay in
hoses, freezing can damage washer. If storing or moving
during freezing weather, winterize your washer.
To winterize washer:
1. Shut off both water faucets; disconnect and drain water
inlet hoses.
2. Put 1 qt. (1 L) of R.V.-type antifreeze in basket and run
washer on RINSE/SPIN cycle for about 30 seconds to
mix antifreeze and remaining water.
3. Unplug washer or disconnect power.
NON-USE AND VACATION CARE
TRANSPORTING YOUR WASHER
1. Shut off both water faucets. Disconnect and drain water
inlet hoses.
2. If washer will be moved during freezing weather, follow
“Winter Storage Care” directions before moving.
3. Disconnect drain from drain system and drain any
remaining water into a pan or bucket. Disconnect drain
hose from back of washer.
4. Unplug power cord.
5. Place inlet hoses and drain hose inside washer basket.
6. Drape power cord over edge and into washer basket.
7. Place packing tray from original shipping materials back
inside washer. If you do not have packing tray, place heavy
blankets or towels into basket opening. Close lid and place

washer is placed in new location.
WASHER CARE
Recommendations to Help Keep Your Washer Clean and
Performing at its Best
1. Always follow the detergent manufacturer’s instructions
regarding the amount of 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 and hot wash water settings 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 lid open between uses to help dry
out the washer and prevent the buildup of odor-causing
residue.
Cleaning Your Top Loading Washer
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

TROUBLESHOOTING
If you experience Possible Causes Solution
Washer not performing as expected (cont.)
Washer not draining/
spinning, loads are
still wet or spin light
remains on (indicating
that the washer was
unable to pump
out water within
10 minutes)
Small items may have been caught
in pump or between basket and tub,
which can slow draining.
Empty pockets and use garment bags for small items.
Use a cycle with a low
spin speed. Cycles with lower spin speeds remove less water than cycles with high spin speeds. Use the recommended cycle/speed spin
for your garment. To remove extra water in the load, select Drain/
Spin. Load may need to be rearranged to allow even distribution
of the load in the basket.
The washer may be tightly
packed or unbalanced. Tightly packed or unbalanced loads may not allow the washer to spin correctly, leaving the load wetter than normal. Evenly arrange
the wet load for balanced spinning. Select the Drain/Spin cycle to
remove excess water. See “Using Your Washer”
for loading recommendations.
Check plumbing for correct
drain hose installation. Drain hose
extends into standpipe farther than
4.5" (114 mm).
Check drain hose for proper installation. Use drain hose form
and securely attach to drainpipe or tub. Do not tape over drain
opening. Lower drain hose if the end is higher than 96" (2.4 m)
above the oor. Remove any clogs from drain hose.
Too much detergent causing suds to
slow or stop draining and spinning. Always measure and follow detergent directions for your load. To remove extra suds, select Rinse/Spin. Do not add detergent.
Dry spots on load after
cycle High speed spins extract more moisture than traditional top-load
washers.
The high spin speeds combined with air ow during the nal spin
can cause items near the top of the load to develop dry spots
during the nal spin. This is normal.
Incorrect or wrong
wash or rinse
temperatures
Check for proper water supply. Make sure hot and cold inlet hoses are not reversed.
Both hoses must be attached to both washer and faucet, and
have both hot and cold water owing to inlet valve.
Check that inlet valve screens are not clogged.
Remove any kinks in hoses.
Energy saving controlled
wash temperatures. This washer uses cooler wash and rinse water temperatures than your previous washer. This includes cooler hot and warm washes.
Load not rinsed Check for proper water supply. Make sure hot and cold inlet hoses are not reversed.
Both hoses must be attached and have water owing to the inlet
valve.
Both hot and cold water faucets must be on.
Inlet valve screens on washer may be clogged.
Remove any kinks in the inlet hose.
Using too much detergent. The suds from too much detergent can keep washer from
operating correctly. Always measure detergent and follow
detergent directions based on load size and soil level.
Washer not loaded
as recommended. The washer is less efcient at rinsing when load is tightly packed.
Load garments in loose heaps evenly around the basket wall.

SÉCURITÉ DE LA LAVEUSE

17
Verrouillage du couvercle
Pour un essorage à plus haute vitesse, le couvercle
se verrouille et le témoin de verrouillage du couvercle
s’allume. Lorsque ce témoin lumineux s’allume, cela
signie que le couvercle est verrouillé et ne peut être
ouvert. Lorsque ce témoin lumineux clignote, cela signie
que la laveuse effectue une pause. Lorsque ce témoin
lumineux est éteint, cela signie qu’on peut ouvrir le
couvercle. Après le démarrage d’un programme, de l’eau
pénètre dans la laveuse et celle-ci se verrouille. Si l’on
doit ouvrir le couvercle pour ajouter un vêtement après
cette étape, il faut appuyer sur START/Pause/Unlock Lid
(mise en marche/pause/déverrouillage du couvercle) puis
attendre que le couvercle se déverrouille. Le couvercle
se déverrouille uniquement une fois que le mouvement
de la laveuse a cessé. Selon le moment où l’on souhaite
suspendre le programme, le couvercle peut mettre entre
plusieurs secondes et plusieurs minutes à se déverrouiller.
Appuyer sur START/Pause/Unlock Lid (mise en marche/
pause/déverrouillage du couvercle).
Détection
La laveuse effectue une série d’essorages pour contrôler
l’équilibre de la charge. Durant cette période, une série de
cliquetis et un bruit de frottements rythmiques indiquent
que la technologie de détection détermine si la charge est
déséquilibrée.
IMPORTANT :
■Après que le panier de la laveuse se soit rempli jusqu’au niveau d’eau sélectionné, le couvercle doit être rabattu pour
que le programme de lavage puisse commencer. Si le remplissage s’arrête alors que le couvercle est ouvert, fermer
le couvercle et appuyer sur le bouton START (mise en marche).
■L’option Fabric Softener (assouplissant pour tissu) doit être réglée sur Yes (oui) pour que l’assouplissant pour tissu soit
distribué au moment approprié du programme (sur certains modèles).
Bruits
Au cours de différents stades du programme de
lavage, vous entendrez peut-être des bruits et pauses
que votre laveuse précédente ne produisait pas. Il est
par exemple possible que vous entendiez un cliquetis
et un bourdonnement au début du programme, lorsque
le système de verrouillage du couvercle effectue un
test automatique. Différents bourdonnements et bruits
de frottements rythmiques se produiront à mesure
que l’agitateur évalue l’équilibre de la charge et qu’il
la déplace. Il est aussi possible que la laveuse soit
parfois complètement silencieuse, lorsqu’elle laisse
tremper les vêtements.
Rinçage par vaporisation
Certains programmes utilisent l’option Rinçage par
vaporisation par défaut. Au cours de ces programmes,
on entend l’eau pénétrer dans la laveuse tandis que la
cuve tourne, ce qui permet à l’eau de rinçage de pénétrer
les vêtements. Consulter le “Guide de programmes” pour
plus de détails.
QUOI DE NEUF SOUS LE COUVERCLE?
Votre nouvelle laveuse fonctionne différemment de votre précédente laveuse de type agitateur.

18
TABLEAU DE COMMANDE ET CARACTÉRISTIQUES
LOAD SIZE (taille de charge)
Sélectionner le réglage le plus adapté à votre charge.
Extra Small (très petite) ou Small (petite) (selon le modèle)
ajoutent une faible quantité d’eau pour les charges plus
petites et Large (grande) ajoute la quantité d’eau la plus
importante pour les grandes charges ou les charges
volumineuses. Les articles doivent pouvoir se déplacer
librement. Trop tasser le linge peut entraîner une mauvaise
performance de lavage et augmenter le froissement et
l’emmêlement.
WASH TEMP (température de lavage) ou
TEMPERATURE (température)
La fonction de température détecte et maintient une
température uniforme de l’eau en régulant le débit d’arrivée
d’eau chaude et d’eau froide.
Sélectionner une température de lavage en fonction du type
de tissu et de saleté à laver. Pour des résultats optimaux,
suivre les instructions sur l’étiquette du vêtement et utiliser
la température d’eau de lavage la plus chaude possible qui
reste sans danger pour le tissu.
■Sur certains modèles et pour certains programmes, les
températures utilisées pour l’eau chaude et l’eau tiède
peuvent être inférieures aux températures utilisées par
votre précédente laveuse.
■Même pour les lavages à l’eau froide ou fraîche, il est
possible que de l’eau tiède soit ajoutée à la laveuse pour
maintenir une température minimale.

FABRIC SOFTENER (assouplissant pour tissu)
(sur certains modèles)
Cette option peut être ajoutée à la plupart des programmes;
on doit la régler sur YES (oui) si l’on utilise de l’assouplissant
pour tissu durant un programme. Ceci garantit que
l’assouplissant pour tissu est ajouté au bon moment lors
du rinçage pour être correctement distribué.
WASH CYCLE KNOB
(bouton de programme de lavage)
Utiliser le bouton du programme de lavage pour sélectionner
les programmes disponibles sur la laveuse. Le bouton reste
statique pendant la progression du programme – voir les
témoins lumineux de programme pour suivre sa progression
étape par étape. Voir “Guide de programmes” pour des
descriptions de programmes détaillées.
BOUTON START/PAUSE/UNLOCK LID (mise
en marche/pause/déverrouillage du couvercle)
Appuyer sur ce bouton pour démarrer le programme
sélectionné, puis appuyer de nouveau pour suspendre
le programme et déverrouiller le couvercle.
REMARQUE : Si la laveuse tourne, le couvercle peut mettre
quelques minutes à se déverrouiller. Appuyer pendant
3 secondes pour annuler un programme.
Certains programmes et options ne sont pas disponibles sur certains modèles.
L’apparence des appareils peut varier.

FINAL SPIN (essorage nal)
La laveuse essore la charge à des vitesses augmentant
graduellement pour une bonne extraction de l’eau, en
fonction du programme et de la vitesse d’essorage
sélectionnés.
CYCLE COMPLETE (programme terminé)
Une fois le programme terminé, ce témoin s’allume. Retirer
la charge rapidement pour un résultat optimal.
LID LOCKED (couvercle verrouillé)
Pour un essorage à plus haute vitesse,
le couvercle se verrouille et le témoin de
verrouillage du couvercle s’allume. Lorsque
ce témoin lumineux s’allume, cela signie
que le couvercle est verrouillé et ne peut
être ouvert. Lorsque ce témoin lumineux
clignote, cela signie que la laveuse effectue
une pause. Lorsque ce témoin lumineux
est éteint, cela signie qu’on peut ouvrir
le couvercle.
Si l’on doit ouvrir le couvercle, appuyer
sur START/Pause/Unlock Lid (mise en
marche/pause/déverrouillage du
couvercle). Le couvercle se déverrouille
une fois que le mouvement de la laveuse
a cessé. Il se peut que cela prenne
plusieurs minutes si la laveuse essorait
la charge à grande vitesse. Appuyer de
nouveau sur START/Pause/Unlock Lid
(mise en marche/pause/déverrouillage
du couvercle) pour poursuivre le programme.
CYCLE STATUS LIGHTS
(témoins lumineux des programmes)
Les témoins lumineux de programmes indiquent la
progression du programme. À chaque étape du processus,
il est possible que l’on remarque des pauses ou des sons
différents de ceux des laveuses ordinaires.
FILL (remplissage)
Lorsqu’on appuie sur le bouton START/PAUSE/ Unlock
(mise en marche/pause/déverrouillage), la laveuse se
remplit jusqu’au niveau d’eau sélectionné. Si le couvercle
est fermé lorsque la machine a ni de se remplir, le
couvercle se verrouille et la machine commence à
fonctionner.
Si le couvercle est ouvert alors que l’eau cesse d’entrer
dans la machine, le programme ne démarre pas tant que l’on
n’a pas fermé le couvercle et que l’on n’a pas appuyé sur
le bouton START/PAUSE/Unlock (mise en marche/ pause/
déverrouillage). Si le programme n’a pas commencé dans
les 10 minutes qui suivent le remplissage de la laveuse, la
laveuse commence à pomper l’eau pour l’évacuer.
REMARQUE : Éviter d’ouvrir le couvercle durant le
processus de détection. Le processus de détection
recommencera une fois la laveuse remise en marche.
Le témoin de remplissage s’allume également lors des
étapes de trempage et de lavage du programme. Ceci
est normal. Pour remettre la laveuse en marche après
que le couvercle a été ouvert, appuyer sur START (mise
en marche).
WASH (lavage)
On entend l’impulseur déplacer la charge. Les bruits émis
par le moteur peuvent changer lors des différentes étapes
du programme. La durée de lavage est déterminée par le
niveau de saleté sélectionné.
RINSE (rinçage)
On entend des sons similaires à ceux entendu lors
du programme de lavage à mesure que la laveuse rince
et déplace la charge. Le moteur émettra peut-être un
court bourdonnement pour déplacer le panier pendant
le remplissage. L’assouplissant pour tissu sera ajouté si
le bouton Fabric Softener (assouplissant pour tissu) a été
réglé à YES (oui).
Certains programmes utilisent un rinçage avec
vaporisation. Après avoir effectué la vidange et
l’extraction de l’eau de lavage, la laveuse poursuit
l’essorage et la vaporisation d’eau de rinçage pendant
toute la durée de rinçage.
