IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
SafeyIructions
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire
WARNING!
or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
WATER HEATER SAFETY
Under certain conditions hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that has not been used for two weeks
or more. Hydrogen gas can be explosive under these circumstances.
If the hot water has not been used for two weeks or more, prevent the possibility of damage or injury by turning on
all hot water faucets and allowing them to run for several minutes. Do this before using any electrical appliance
which is connected to the hot water system. This simple procedure will allow any built-up hydrogen gas to escape.
Since the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame or appliance during this process.

this appliance from the power supply or disconnect
the washer at the household distribution panel by
removing the fuse or switching off the circuit
breaker before attempting any maintenance or
cleaning. NOTE: Turning the Cycle Selector knob to

Liquid Bleach Dispenser (on some models)
The dispenser dilutes liquid chlorine bleach before it reaches into your wash load.
1 Check clothing care labels for special instructions.
2 Measure liquid bleach carefully, following instructions on the bottle.
■ Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly onto clothes or into the wash basket.
■ Do not pour powdered bleach into bleach dispenser.
Before starting the washer, pour measured amount of bleach directly into bleach

dispenser. Avoid splashing or over-filling dispenser. If you prefer to use powdered
bleach, add it into the wash basket with your detergent.
■ Do not mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or acids such as vinegar and/or rust remover. Mixing can
OpeagIructions
produce a toxic gas which may cause death.
The Agitator Cap or Fabric Softener Dispenser (depending on model)
The agitator cap fits into the top of the
agitator. If it accidentally comes off, simply
put it back on.
Add water to dispenser until it reaches
the maximum fill line.

The fabric softener dispenser automatically
releases liquid fabric softener at the proper
time during the cycle.
Do not stop the washer during the first
spin. This will cause the dispenser to
empty too soon.
T

To use, follow these steps:
Do not pour anything into the agitator if
the agitator cap or dispenser is removed.
Make sure dispenser is securely attached
to agitator.

Proper Use of Detergent
Add detergent and start the washer before adding
clothes so that the detergent can work effectively.
Using too little or too much detergent is a common
cause of laundry problems.
You can use less detergent if you have soft water, a
smaller load, or a lightly soiled load.
Loading the Washer
Load dry items loosely, no higher than the top
row of holes in the washer tub. When loading wet
items make sure you set the load/water level high
enough to allow the items to move freely. Water
level should just cover the clothes. To add items
after washer has started, push in Cycle knob and
submerge additional items next to the agitator.
Close the lid and pull Cycle knob out to restart.
■ Do not wrap large items like sheets around the
agitator.
OpeagIructions
■ Do not wash fabrics containing flammable
materials (waxes, cleaning fluids, etc.).
■ Agitation will not start with the lid up.

detergent, then rinse. (Do not use harsh or gritty
cleaners.)
Exterior: Immediately wipe off any spills. Wipe with
damp cloth. Try not to hit surface with sharp objects.
Moving and Storage: Ask the service technician to

and prevents damage to the washer. Refer to the
Installation Instructions that came with your washer
for the correct positioning of the shipping rod.
Lint Filter: The lint filter is located under the agitator.
It is self-cleaning and requires no maintenance.
Long Vacations: Be sure water supply is shut off at
