of trouble-free operation, we developed this Use and Care Guide. It contains valuable infor-

mation about how to operate and maintain your washer properly and safely. Please read

it carefully.

Also, please complete and mail in the Ownership Registration Card provided with your

appliance. The card helps us notify you about any new information on your appliance.

Please record your model’s information.

•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

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

following:

This symbol alerts you to

hazards such as fire, electrical

shock, or other injuries.

•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

repair instructions that you under-

stand and have the skills to

carry out.

•See Installation Instructions for

grounding requirements.

continued on next page

Super Wash Cycle

The Super Wash cycle (18 minutes) features

an extended wash

time for washing

heavily soiled

loads that need

maximum soil

removal.

For improved

cleaning, use two

times the amount

of detergent recommended for a wash cycle.

Normal Cycle

The Normal cycle features the Gentle Wash

system, and high

agitation and spin

speeds to shorten

drying time. Use

this cycle for

cleaning cotton

and linen fabrics.

Select 9 (REGU-

LAR) or 12

(HEAVY) minutes of wash time, depending

on whether your load is moderately or

heavily soiled.

For lightly soiled cotton and linen fabrics,

use 6 minutes (SOFTWASH) of wash time.

Permanent Press Cycle

The Permanent Press cycle features the

Gentle Wash

system, a cool-

down rinse, and

low spin speeds

to reduce wrin-

kling. Use this

cycle for cleaning

permanent press

and some

synthetic fabrics. Select 6 (LIGHT) or 9

(REGULAR) minutes of wash time, depend-

ing on whether your wash load is lightly or

moderately soiled.

OPERATING YOUR WASHER

Delicates Cycle

The Delicates cycle features a reduced

agitation speed

for gentle soil

removal. Low

spin speeds

reduce wrinkling.

Use 6 minutes

of wash time for

cleaning lightly

to moderately

soiled delicate items and washable knits.

Hand Washables Cycle

The Hand Washables cycle features brief,

low-speed

agitation (2

seconds), and

short soaks (28

seconds) to

gently clean

special-care

items. Low spin

speeds reduce

wrinkling. Use 6 minutes of wash time to

clean lightly soiled hand washables.

Wash small loads. If items appear to be

floating (due to trapped air), stop the washer

by pushing in the Cycle Control Knob. Push

items down into the washer. Restart the

washer. Refer to “Hand washables” on

page 16 for more information.

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 cleaning

of the wash load.

After agitation starts, the Cycle Control Knob

turns clockwise until it points to an OFF area

and the cycle ends.

NOTES:

•The washer pauses briefly throughout

each cycle. These pauses are normal for

washer operation.

•A Gentle Wash system helps protect your

fabrics by reducing wash agitation speed

during the last few minutes of wash

agitation in the Normal and Permanent

Press cycles.

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. MAGIC CLEAN
