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.
IMPORTANT: Remove all sharp objects from
laundry to avoid tears and rips to items during
normal machine operation.
1. Get the clothes ready for
washing. Empty pockets
and cuffs. Sort items into
separate loads. Pretreat
stains and heavily soiled
areas.
IMPORTANT: If using detergents made for
topload washers, avoid oversudsing by using
1/4 cup regular detergent (1/2 of the
recommended amount).
5. Set WASH/RINSE temperatures.
There are four WASH/RINSE temperatures
available — Hot Wash/Cold Rinse, Warm
Wash/Cold Rinse, Warm Wash/Warm Rinse,
and Cold Wash/Cold Rinse.
Refer to the chart on the following page for the
temperature that works best for your garments.
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 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.
