Important Safety Instructions
Save These Instructions
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury
or death to persons when using your washer, follow
these basic precautions:
W023
• Read all instructions before using the washer.
• Install the washer according to the INSTALLATION INSTRUC-
TIONS. Refer to the EARTH/GROUND INSTRUCTIONS in the IN-
STALLATION manual for the proper earth/ground connection of
the washer. All connections for water, drain, electrical power
and earth/ground must comply with local codes and be made by
licensed personnel when required. Do not do it yourself.
• Do not install or store the washer where it will be exposed to
water and/or weather.
• Do not add the following substances or textiles containing
traces of the following substances to the wash water: gasoline,
kerosene, waxes, cooking oils, vegetable oils, machine oils, dry-
cleaning solvents, flammable chemicals, thinners or other flam-
mable or explosive substances. These substances give off va-
pors that could ignite, explode or cause the fabric to catch on
fire by itself.
• 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 ma-
chine or combination washer-dryer, turn on all hot water fau-
cets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This
will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. THE GAS IS FLAM-
MABLE, DO NOT SMOKE OR USE AN OPEN FLAME DURING
THIS TIME.
• To reduce the risk of an electric shock or fire, DO NOT use an
extension cord or an adapter to connect the washer to the
electrical power source.
• Do not allow children to play on or in the washer. Close supervi-
sion of children is necessary when the washer is used near chil-
dren. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (includ-
ing children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabili-
ties, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appli-
ance by a person responsible for their safety. This is a safety
rule for all appliances.
• Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children
without supervision.
• Children less than three years should be kept away unless con-
tinuously supervised.
• Do not reach into the washer if the washtub or agitator, if ap-
plicable, is moving.
Safety Information
Part No. 203183 ©Copyright, Alliance Laundry Systems LLC - DO NOT COPY or TRANSMIT 6

• Never operate the washer with any guards, panels and/or parts
removed or broken. DO NOT tamper with the controls or bypass
any safety devices.
• Use your washer only for its intended purpose, washing clothes.
Always follow the fabric care instructions supplied by the gar-
ment manufacturer.
• Always read and follow manufacturer’s instructions on pack-
ages of laundry and cleaning aids. To reduce the risk of poison-
ing or chemical burns, keep them out of the reach of children at
all times (preferably in a locked cabinet). Heed all warnings or
precautions.
• Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static un-
less recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener
or product.
• Lid MUST BE CLOSED any time the washer is to agitate or spin.
DO NOT bypass the lid switch by permitting the washer to agi-
tate or spin with the lid open. A brake will stop the washtub
within seconds if the lid is opened during spinning. If the wash-
tub does not stop when the lid is opened, remove the washer
from use and call the service person.
• Be sure water connections have a shut-off valve and that fill
hose connections are tight. CLOSE the shut-off valves at the
end of each wash day.
• Keep your washer in good condition. Bumping or dropping the
washer can damage safety features. If this occurs, have your
washer checked by a qualified service person.
• Do not repair or replace any part of the washer, or attempt any
servicing unless specifically recommended in the user-mainte-
nance instructions or in published user-repair instructions that
you understand and have the skills to carry out. ALWAYS dis-
connect the washer from electrical supply before attempting
any service.
• Disconnect the power cord by grasping the plug, not the cord. If
the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manu-
facturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order
to avoid a hazard.
• Before the washer is removed from service or discarded, re-
move the lid or door to the washing compartment.
• Failure to install, maintain, and/or operate this washer accord-
ing to the manufacturer’s instructions may result in conditions
which can produce bodily injury and/or property damage.
NOTE: The WARNING and IMPORTANT SAFETY IN-
STRUCTIONS appearing in this manual are not meant to
cover all possible conditions and situations that may oc-
cur. Common sense, caution and care must be exercised
when installing, maintaining, or operating the washer.
Always contact your dealer, distributor, service agent or the man-
ufacturer about any problems or conditions you do not under-
stand.

Operation
Before Washing
Prepare Wash Load
Empty Pockets and Cuffs
Make sure all pockets are empty and turn them inside out. One bob-
by pin, metal or plastic toy, nail or sharp object in a load can catch
laundry, cause tears and plug the pump. Facial tissue left in a pock-
et will produce extreme “lint”. A crayon or lipstick in a wash load
may cause stains that cannot be removed. Roll down cuffs and
shake out grass, sand and gravel.
TLW1990N_SVG
Mend Rips and Tears
Little holes can become bigger in the washer. Mend holes and tears
before placing garments in the washer.
Close Zipper and Fasten Hooks
These can catch on garments in a wash load and tear them. Tie
belts and sashes so they won’t wind around clothes.
Check For Colorfastness
Squeeze a portion of garment in warm or hot sudsy water. If the
color bleeds or runs, wash the item separately in cold water.
Sort Items
Different items use different wash cycles and temperatures. Al-
ways follow the manufacturer’s care label.
TLW1991N_SVG
Proper sorting is easy if you follow a few guidelines:
1. Sort by Color: Separate items into loads of whites, darks, lights
and non-colorfast.
2. Sort by Fabric and Construction: Separate items into loads of
cottons/linens, permanent press, synthetics/blends/poly knits,
and delicates.
3. Sort by Temperature: Separate items into loads that can be
washed in cold, warm or hot water.
4. Sort by Type and Amount of Soil: Heavily soiled clothes will need
extra treatment. Lightly soiled clothes can become dingy if
washed with heavily soiled items.
5. Sort Lint “Shedders” From Lint “Receivers”: Some fabrics at-
tract lint and should not be washed with lint-shedding loads.
Lint shedders are cottons, terry towels, chenille bedspreads,
rugs and clothes that have been heavily bleached. Lint receivers
are synthetics, permanent or durable press, knits (including
socks), corduroy, and other smooth fabrics.
Pretreat
Pretreat shirt collars and cuffs with a pretreat product or liquid
detergent when placing them in the washer. Before washing, treat
special stains individually.
WARNING
Do not wash or dry items soiled with vegetable or
cooking oils. Some oils may remain after washing and
may cause the fabric to catch on fire by itself.
W527
Loading the Washer
Load Articles
NOTE: Always add detergent first.
• Load items by the amount of space they take up, not by their
weight. Mix large and small items in a load to get the best
washing results.
Operation
Part No. 203183 ©Copyright, Alliance Laundry Systems LLC - DO NOT COPY or TRANSMIT 8

• Drop items loosely into the washtub. The bulk of the clothes
rather than the weight will determine load size. Do not pack
items in or wrap them around the agitator. Overloading can
cause poor cleaning, excessive wrinkling and tears.
TLW1992N_SVG
• Items should move freely through the wash water for best
cleaning results. Items should rollover, sink and then reappear.
• When washing very large items, do not fill washtub as full as
with other loads.
Load Size (Water Level)
• The water level in your washer should fit the size of your wash
load. Small loads will use lower water levels. There must be
enough water in the washtub to allow items to move and turn
over freely.
Wrong Water Level for Size of Load
TLW2223N_SVG
Right Water Level for Size of Load
TLW2224N_SVG
• Overloading the washtub can result in poor washing and rinsing.
• Overloading may also cause wrinkling and tearing of items as
well as increased wear to the washer’s motor.
IMPORTANT: If in doubt, always use a larger load size.
Most average loads will require the Large Load Size set-
ting. Failure to have the correct volume of water relative
to the load may decrease washer performance.
NOTE: Starting January 2009, the Department of Ener-
gy (DOE) mandated new efficiency standards which re-
sulted in reduced water levels in the topload washer.

Wash Temperature
Hot
Hot water is the most effective for cleaning, but it is not recom-
mended for all fabric types (read labels).
Warm
The Warm Wash is useful for providing a thorough cleaning on light
and moderately soiled clothing without damaging fabric or adding
to color fading. Warm water also reduces wrinkling. Use with non-
colorfast or dark colors, permanent press, silks, woolens, nylon, and
acrylic.
Cold
The Cold Wash is ideal for delicate items. Although its cleaning abili-
ties are not as great as with hot or warm water, it is useful for col-
ors that bleed easily and for sensitive fabrics.
All rinses use cold water. It is the most beneficial for fabrics. Cold
rinses reduce wrinkling and color fading. In addition, cold rinses will
save money and energy.
NOTE: In wash temperatures colder than 60°F (16°C),
detergents do not dissolve well. This may cause ineffec-
tive cleaning, or lint and residue to form.
NOTE: Always follow manufacturer’s care labels.

Cycles
The following cycle descriptions will help determine which cycle to
choose depending on the type of laundry being washed. The de-
scriptions are standard settings that may be modified using the
Selections and Options.
Heavy Duty
Use for sturdy items, like play or work clothes, towels, T-shirts, etc.
The wash time selection will depend on the type of fabric and the
amount of soil. For the best results when cleaning heavily soiled
items, use a higher soil level selection. Lightly soiled items require
less wash time.
Use the Prewash setting for extra heavily soiled items. During the
PREWASH setting, the washtub will fill with water, agitate for a re-
duced period of time and spin out.
Normal Eco
This cycle uses less water than the other cycles. It also uses less
hot water. This cycle is recommended for washing everyday cot-
tons and linens.
Perm Press
Use for permanent press items and synthetics. The final spin is a
low spin speed.
Delicate
Wash delicate items usually washed by hand on this cycle. A full tub
of water is recommended (even for small loads) to allow the deli-
cate items to move freely through the water. More water helps re-
duce fabric wear, wrinkling, and provides for a clean wash.
On this cycle, the agitation during the wash portion of the cycle is
not constant. The wash will alternate between periods of agitation
and then a short soak until advancing to the spin portion of the cy-
cle. All spin speeds are a low spin.
Rinse & Spin
Use to quickly rinse items. The rinse is followed by a high spin.
Spin
Use this cycle to extract water from wet items. The cycle uses the
high spin.

To Wash Clothes
IMPORTANT: Before using your new washer, make sure
the washer cord is connected to an appropriate electrical
outlet that is properly installed and connected to a pro-
tective earth/ground. 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 INSTAL-
LATION INSTRUCTIONS for details of proper washer in-
stallation.
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 wash drum.
1. Get the clothes ready for washing. Empty pockets and cuffs.

Optional Features
Bleach Dispenser
The bleach dispenser is located in the left front corner, under the
lid.
Use liquid bleach in the dispenser. Powdered bleach must not be
used in the dispenser. Add powdered bleach to the wash water.
Use no more than one cup chlorine bleach for large loads, three-
quarters cup for medium and one-half cup for small loads.
Carefully pour recommended amount of bleach into the dispenser
during the first fill of the washer.
Be careful not to spill undiluted bleach. It is a strong chemical and
can damage some fabrics if it is not properly diluted.
Fabric Softener Dispenser
Fabric softener is not recommended to be used when the Normal
Eco cycle is selected. For best results, choose an alternate cycle
setting if using fabric softener.
To Use Dispenser
After the clothes are loaded into the washtub and before the
start of the WASH cycle, pour the proper amount of liquid fabric
softener into the bottle measuring cap (refer to bottle directions).
Pour into dispenser.
The large fabric softener dispenser allows for the fabric softener
to be diluted with water. We recommend adding water up to the fill
level. Do not exceed tip of arrow which indicates correct fill level.
Over-filling can allow fabric softener to spill onto the clothes, caus-
ing stains on clothes if the softener comes into contact with de-
tergent suds.
Setting the water level to medium or higher will result in better per-
formance from the fabric softener.
The fabric softener will remain in the dispenser during the wash fill,
agitation and spin. At the end of the wash spin, the liquid fabric
softener will be dispensed into the washtub through the slots in
the agitator and will be mixed with the incoming rinse water.
To Clean the Dispenser
1. Remove the dispenser housing from agitator by squeezing the
lower part of the dispenser, pulling directly upward and at the
same time tilting slightly. This will expose the dispenser cup,
which is also removable for cleaning. Refer to illustration.
2. Soak both housing and cup in hot soapy water.
3. Rinse housing and cup clean.
4. Clean funnel shape in top of agitator by using a small brush.
5. After cleaning, install dispenser cup, then push dispenser hous-
ing directly downward onto top of agitator until firmly snapped
together.
IMPORTANT: When adding detergent to the wash load,
DO NOT allow any detergent to enter the softener dis-
penser cup. If this happens, refer to the cleaning instruc-
tions.

Use Tips
• Fabric softener spilled onto garments may cause staining. To
remove, dampen stain and rub with bar soap. Wash as usual.
Cycle Operation
Part No. 203183 ©Copyright, Alliance Laundry Systems LLC - DO NOT COPY or TRANSMIT 15

• Liquid fabric softeners will be dispensed during the first rinse
and should not be combined with bleach, bluing, starch, deter-
gents, soaps or packaged water conditioners.
• Fabric softener is not to be used in dispenser when using Pre-
wash cycle, if available.
• When adding detergent to wash water, do not allow any to en-
ter into softener dispenser cup, as softener will become gum-
my.
To prevent softener buildup, the dispenser can be filled with clean
water for automatic cleaning. This can be done in washing cycles
other than when softener is used.

Clothing Care
Clothing Concerns
To keep clothes looking white or bright, use good washing practices
at all times to prevent a gradual build-up of soil or water hardness
minerals on them. If you notice that your clothes are not as bright
as they should be, take corrective measures immediately.
Problem Cause Solution
Gray or Dingy Clothes Insufficient Detergent Add more detergent to washtub before
loading clothes.
Mild detergents are not suitable for aver-
age soil.
Improper Sorting Wash whites separately. Separate light
from heavily soiled items. Clothes can pick
up soil from dirty wash water.
Nonphosphate Detergent and Hard Water Follow package directions. Soften water if
possible.
Water Not Hot Enough White clothes will stay whiter with hot
wash water. Increase temperature.
Overcrowding Washer Clothes must circulate freely through the
water for best results.
Yellowed Clothes Unremoved Soil Skin soil is hard to remove. Check hem
edge of sheets and pillowcases, bottom
end of t-shirts, etc. If this portion is white
and center is yellow, the fabric contains
unremoved soil. Use sufficient detergent
and a hot wash. Chlorine bleach may be
needed.
Clothes Stained from Iron in the Water To test for an iron stain, use a rust remov-
er that is recommended for use with
washing machines on a portion of the gar-
ment. Follow bottle directions for larger
items.
Older Clothes Some white fabrics turn yellow with age
and cannot be whitened.
Clothes Tearing or Damaged Improper Use of Chlorine Bleach No correction for bleach damaged clothes.
Always measure and dilute bleach. Take
extra care to avoid unwanted spilling.
Insufficient Precare Fasten all hooks and zippers. Mend tears.
Remove objects from pockets.
Overcrowding or Overloading Make sure all items can move freely during
agitation.
Clothing Care
Part No. 203183 ©Copyright, Alliance Laundry Systems LLC - DO NOT COPY or TRANSMIT 17

Problem Cause Solution
Excessive Lint Improper Sorting Fabrics that shed lint cannot be washed
with fabrics that receive lint.
Insufficient Detergent/Non-phosphate
Detergent
Use enough detergent so lint remains sus-
pended in water and flushed out. Do not
oversuds the water.
Mixing Fabric Types Knits and permanent press attract lint.
Wash these only with similar items.
Use fabric softener in rinse water.
Wrinkling Improper Sorting Heavy items like towels should not be
washed with light items like nightgowns.
Improper Cycle Make sure cycle selected is appropriate
for type of clothes.
Improper Temperature Using a warm or cold wash and a cold rinse
reduces wrinkling.
Too Many Clothes in Washer Clothes must circulate freely through the
water for best results.

If the unit is delivered on a cold day (below freezing), or is stored in
an unheated room or area during the cold months, do not attempt
to operate the washer until it has had a chance to warm up. Water
from the previous cycle may remain.
Care of Your Washer
Use only a damp or sudsy cloth for cleaning the control panel. Some
cleaning products may harm the finish on the control panel or dam-
age the interior. DO NOT use products that contain alcohol on the
control panel. Wipe the panel dry after cleaning.
Wipe the washer cabinet as needed. If detergent, bleach or other
washing products are spilled on the cabinet, wipe immediately.
Some products will cause permanent damage if spilled on the cabi-
net.
Do not use scouring pads or abrasive cleansers.
The washtub will need no particular care though it may need rinsing
or wiping after some unusual loads have been washed. This also may
be necessary if too little detergent has been used.
Leave the lid open to allow the inside of the washer to dry out after
use. This helps prevent musty odors from developing.
The agitator should not be removed except for service. The wash-
tub is designed to be self cleaning.
Replacing Hoses
Hoses and other natural rubber parts deteriorate after extended
use. Hoses may develop cracks, blisters or material wear from the
temperature and constant high pressure they are subjected to.
All hoses should be checked on a monthly basis for any visible signs
of deterioration. Any hose showing the signs of deterioration listed
above should be replaced immediately. All hoses should be replaced
every five years.
Filter Screens
Check the filter screens in the fill hoses for debris or damage every
six months. Clean or replace them if necessary.
If the washer is filling with water slower than normal, check the fil-
ter screens. Clean or replace them if necessary.
Order filter screen Part No. 803615 from the nearest authorized
parts distributor.
Vacations and Extended Non-Use
IMPORTANT: To avoid possible property damage due to
flooding, turn off the water supply to the washer whenev-
er there will be an extended period of non-use.
Preventative Maintenance
Follow these guidelines to ensure the washer operates properly.
Call for service if you observe any of the following: water of any
amount on the floor, an increase in operating noise or water re-
maining in the wash basket after a cycle.
Frequency Maintenance Procedure
Monthly 1. Check all hoses and the
drain for leaks.
2. Check the lid switch for
proper operation.
3. Check to make sure the
washer is level.
Every six months 1. Clean the filter screens in
the fill hoses.
Every five years 1. Have a qualified service
technician conduct general
preventative maintenance
on the washer to ensure it
operates properly.
2. Replace the fill hoses.
Reinstallation of Shipping Materials
You must install the shipping brace and shipping plug any time the
washer is moved.
Shipping Brace
The shipping brace in the lid opening should be saved and reinstalled
whenever the washer is moved. To reinstall the brace, open the
washer lid and place the brace over the washer agitator, placing the
back of the brace into the lid opening first.
Shipping Plug
The plastic shipping plug should be saved and reinstalled any time
the washer is moved. The plug fits into two openings: The base
opening and the shipping plug opening on the bottom of the movable
pivot dome. The plug MUST be inserted into both openings to pre-
vent damage to the washer. In order to accomplish this, the ship-
ping plug opening must be directly lined up with the base opening.
