•Read all instructions before using

the washer.

•Do not wash articles that have

been previously cleaned in,

washed in, soaked in, or spotted

with gasoline, dry-cleaning

solvents, other flammable, or

explosive substances as they

give off vapors that could ignite

or explode.

•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, hydro-

gen gas may be produced in a

hot water system that has not

been used for 2 weeks or more.

HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLO-

SIVE. If the hot water system has

not been used for such a period,

before using a washing machine,

turn on all hot water faucets and

let the water flow from each for

several minutes. This will release

any accumulated hydrogen gas.

As the gas is flammable, do not

smoke or use an open flame

during this time. – SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS –

Washer Safety

Your safety is important to us.

This guide contains safety statements under

warning symbols. Please pay special

attention to these symbols and follow any

instructions given. Here is a brief explana-

tion of the symbol.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING – To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to per-

sons when using the washer, follow basic precautions, including the

following:

•Do not allow children to play on

or in the washer. Close supervi-

sion of children is necessary

when the washer is used near

children.

•Before the washer is removed

from service or discarded, re-

move the door.

•Do not reach into the washer if

the tub or agitator is moving.

•Do not install or store the washer

where it will be exposed to the

weather.

•Do not tamper with controls.

•Do not repair or replace any part

of the washer or attempt any

servicing unless specifically

recommended in this Use and

Care Guide or in published

Stopping/restarting your washer

•To stop the washer at any time, push in

the Cycle Control Knob.

•To restart the washer, close the lid (if open)

and pull out the Cycle Control Knob.

Selecting a cycle and time

This section illustrates and describes the

wash cycles you can select with the Cycle

Control Knob. Use this information to help

you make the best cycle selections for your

wash loads. Each cycle is designed for

different types of fabrics and soil levels.

Normal Cycle

The Normal cycle features longer spins to

shorten drying time.

Use this cycle for

cleaning cotton and

linen fabrics. Select 6

(Regular) or 12

(Heavy) minutes of

wash time, depending

on whether your load

is moderately or heavily soiled.

Permanent Press Cycle

The Permanent Press cycle features a

cool-down rinse and

shorter spins to

reduce wrinkling. Use

this cycle for cleaning

permanent press and

some synthetic fabrics.

Select 6 (Light) or 8

(Regular) minutes of

wash time, depending on whether your wash

load is lightly or moderately soiled.

OPERATING YOUR WASHER

•The washer pauses briefly throughout each

cycle. These pauses are normal for washer

operation.

•Refer to page 8 to learn more about the

sounds you may hear during a wash cycle.

•Refer to page 9 to help you understand

what happens during a wash cycle.

Short Cycle

The Short cycle features brief wash and

soak periods, followed

by shorter spins. Use

this 8-minute cycle to

clean delicate items

and washable knits

that are lightly or

moderately soiled.

Soak Cycle

The Soak cycle features brief periods of agi-

tation and soak time

to help remove heavy

soils and stains that

need pretreatment.

•Use warm water

when soaking

laundry. Hot water

can set stains. See

pages 16-18 for stain removal information.

•

Use the amount of detergent or presoak

additive recommended by the manufacturer.

•After the Soak cycle ends, add detergent

and set a new wash cycle.

Using rinse and spin

When using extra detergent for heavily soiled

clothes, or washing special-care items, you

may find an extra rinse and spin is needed.

1. For an additional rinse, push in the Cycle

Control Knob and turn clockwise to Rinse,

as illustrated.

2. Pull out the Cycle Control Knob. The

washer fills to selected load size,

agitates, drains, and spins.

Using drain and spin

A drain and spin may help shorten drying

times for some heavy fabrics or special-care

items by removing excess water.

1. Push in the Cycle Control Knob and turn

clockwise to Spin, as illustrated.

2. Pull out the Cycle Control Knob. The

washer drains, then spins.

Understanding normal washer sounds

Your new washer may make sounds that

your old one didn’t. Because the sounds are

unfamiliar, you may be concerned about

them. Don’t be; most of them are normal.

The following describes some of the sounds

you may hear and what causes them.

During washing

When you select a small load size setting

for a small wash load, the water level in your

washer is lower. With this lower water level,

you may hear a clicking sound from the

upper portion of the agitator.

During drain

The rate that water is drained from your

washer depends on your installation. If water

is drained quickly from the washer, you may

hear air being pulled through the pump. This

happens during the end of draining.

After drain and before spin

When the cycle changes from draining to

spinning, you may hear gears engaging.

OPERATING YOUR WASHER

Understanding what happens in each cycle

When the Cycle Control Knob is set to a

number and pulled out, the washer fills (to

the selected load size) before agitation and

timing start. The washer begins agitating

immediately after filling; agitation occurs with

the washer lid up or down.

During agitation, the XTRA ROLL ACTION*

agitator creates a

continuous

rollover action

that provides a

thorough clean-

ing of the wash

load.

After agitation starts, the Cycle Control Knob

turns clockwise until it points to an OFF area

and the cycle ends.

The washer pauses briefly throughout

each cycle. These pauses are normal for

washer operation.

WASH RINSE

MAGIC CLEAN*lint filter

The lint filter at the bottom of the washer

basket cleans itself. During agitation, wash

and rinse water passes over the filter,

separating the lint from the water. The lint is

then spun away from the filter and out of the

system during the spin part of the cycle.

If your washer drains into a tub, remove

any lint collected in the tub or strainer.

Adding liquid chlorine bleach

Always measure liquid chlorine bleach. Do

not guess. Never use more than 1 cup

(250 mL) for a full load. Follow manu-

facturer’s directions for safe use. Use a cup

with a pouring spout to avoid spilling.

1. Let the washer fill and begin agitating

the load.

2. Add bleach to wash cycle so it can be

removed in the rinse cycle. Pour bleach

around agitator, not directly on load.

•Follow directions on care labels. Do not

use chlorine bleach on wool, silk,

spandex, acetates, or some flame-

retardant fabrics.

•When soaking with chlorine bleach, add

detergent to soak water.

Adding liquid fabric softener

•Always dilute fabric softener with 1⁄2to

1 cup (125 to 250 mL) warm water.

Undiluted fabric softener can stain fabrics.

•Add diluted fabric softener only in the

final rinse.

•Fabric softener should not be mixed with

other laundry products because greasy

stains may form. If stains form, remove

them by wetting the stain and rubbing with

liquid detergent or a bar of soap. Rewash

the stained item.

•Too much fabric softener can make some

items (diapers and towels) nonabsorbent.

If this happens, use less fabric softener or

do not use it every time.

NOTE: Undiluted bleach will damage any

fabric it touches. The damage appears as

rips, holes, tears, or color loss and may not

show up until several washings later.
