cycle – Normal and Light.
To Wash Clothes
IMPORTANT: Before using your new washer, make
sure the washer cord is plugged into a 120 Volt
electrical outlet that has the proper grounding and
polarity. Make sure the washer hoses are connected
to the hot and cold water faucets, and that the
faucets are turned on. Be sure the drain hose is not
kinked and is inserted into a drain. Refer to the
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS for details of
proper washer installation.
IMPORTANT: Prior to first wash, use an all-
purpose cleaner, or a detergent and water solution,
and a damp cloth to remove shipping dust from
inside of washtub.
1. Get the clothes ready for washing. Empty pockets
and cuffs. Sort items into separate loads. Pretreat
stains and heavily soiled areas.

7. Pull the timer knob out to start the washer. The
DOOR LOCKED light will come on after a short
delay, water fill will begin, and wash drum will
begin tumbling.
NOTE: Washer door MUST be closed tightly to
start washer.
If items need to be added or removed after a cycle
has started, push the timer knob in, wait approximately
45 seconds for DOOR LOCKED light to go out, open
door, add or remove items, adjust the timer knob (if
desired) and pull timer knob out.
There is no agitator on this washer. Instead, the
clothing gently tumbles through the water. The wash
action consists of a period of tumbling in one
direction, a brief pause, and then a reverse tumble in
the opposite direction. The pauses are part of the
tumble action and add to the uniqueness of the washer.
Do not attempt to turn the timer through these pauses.
They are part of the cycle.
Timer
Although the washer cycles are automatic, the timer
may be reset to lengthen, shorten or repeat a portion of
a cycle.
To set or reset the timer, push timer knob in to stop the
washer. Hold timer knob in firmly while slowly
turning it clockwise to the setting desired. Pull timer
knob out to start the washer.
DOOR LOCKED Light
When the washer is started, the DOOR LOCKED light
will come on after a short delay. The light will turn off
10 to 30 seconds after the cycle is complete.
Out of Balance Load
If at the end of the cycle, the load is dripping wet, the
washer has limited the spin speed. This is to prevent
damage to the unit if there is a severely unbalanced
load.
If this condition occurs, redistribute the load manually
and repeat the cycle beginning at the last rinse.
If the condition persists, consider steps discussed in
the Before Washing section of the Use and Care
Guide.

Using Your Dispenser Drawer
Detergent Compartment
The detergent compartment is located on the right side
of the dispenser drawer. Refer to compartment 1 of
illustration.
Use low sudsing powdered or liquid detergents that are
recommended for use with high efficiency or front
loading washers. Powdered bleach can also be used in
the dispenser along with the detergent.
NOTE: If using detergents made for topload
washers, avoid oversudsing by using 1/2 of the
recommended amount.
When adding detergent, use only the recommended
amount. Adding too much detergent or using regular
sudsing detergent could result in an oversudsing
condition, which would require additional rinsing with
cold water. Use care when adding detergent so as not
to spill into the other compartments. Detergent mixed
with fabric softener can make the softener gummy.
NOTE: The normal level of suds should be below
center of the door.
Liquid Bleach Compartment
The bleach compartment is located in the left front
corner of the dispenser drawer. Refer to compartment 2
of illustration. It has been designed to prevent the
dispensing of undiluted bleach onto the clothes load.
Use liquid bleach in the dispenser. Powdered bleach
must not be used in this compartment. Powdered
bleach can be used in the detergent compartment
only and can be added along with the detergent.
DO NOT use more than the maximum level
indicated for the bleach compartment. Adding more
than the maximum amount could result in early
dispensing of the product and possible damage to
fabrics.
Carefully pour recommended amount of bleach into
the compartment before starting wash load.
Be careful not to spill undiluted bleach. It is a strong
chemical and can damage some fabrics if it is not
properly diluted. Follow bleach manufacturer’s label
for proper use.
Carefully close dispenser door. Do not allow bleach to
spill into other compartments.
Fabric Softener Compartment
The fabric softener compartment is located in the
left rear corner of the dispenser drawer. Refer to
compartment 3 of illustration.
Use no more than the maximum level indicated for the
fabric softener compartment. Adding more than the
maximum amount could result in early dispensing of
the product and possible staining of fabrics.
Add fabric softener to compartment before beginning
washload. The fabric softener will be dispensed during
the last rinse cycle.
Carefully close dispenser door. Do not allow softener
to spill into other compartments.
To Clean the Dispenser
Remove the dispenser drawer from the washer by
firmly pulling the drawer straight out, past the stop
position. Rinse dispenser drawer in hot water. A small
brush may be used to thoroughly clean out any
residue. After cleaning, reinstall the dispenser drawer.
From time to time, water may be discovered in the
dispenser drawer. This condition is normal. To remove
the water, simply remove the dispenser drawer and
pour out the water.

Available Water Temperatures
The Hot Wash temperature is determined by the actual
temperature of the hot water supplied to the washer.
Hot water is the most effective for cleaning, but it is
not recommended for all fabric types (read labels).
The Warm Wash is useful for providing a thorough
cleaning on lightly soiled clothing without damaging
fabric or adding to color fading.
The Warm Rinse is useful in preventing wrinkles on
certain fabrics. Check labels for fabric manufacturer’s
recommendations.
The Cold Wash is ideal for delicate items. Although its
cleaning abilities are not as great as with hot or warm
water, it is useful for colors that bleed easily and for
sensitive fabrics.
The Cold Rinse is optional in every cycle and is the
most beneficial for fabrics. Cold rinses reduce
wrinkling and color fading. In addition, cold rinses
will save you money and energy.
NOTE: The Energy Saver settings, marked with an
asterisk (*), show which temperature settings will
use the least energy.
NOTE: Always follow manufacturer’s care labels.
