Always follow fabric manufacturer’s care label when laundering.

DO NOT

 wash fabrics soiled with flammable liquids or cleaning solvents.

No washer can completely remove oil.

DO NOT

 wash or dry anything that has been soaked in or spotted with any type of oil (including cooking oils).

DO NOT

 reach into the washer until all moving parts have stopped.

Doing so can result in death, explosion, fire or amputation.

Sorting Wash Loads

Sort by color (whites, lights, colors), soil level, fabric type (sturdy cottons, easy care, delicates) and whether the 

fabric produces lint (terry cloth, chenille) or collects lint (velveteen, corduroy). Wash lint producers such as cotton 

towels and socks separate from lint collectors including synthetic garments and dress pants.

Loading the Washer

 (on models with an agitator)

Load dry items loosely, no higher than the top row of holes in the washer basket. When loading wet items, make 

sure you set the load/water level high enough to allow the items to move freely. To add items after washer has 

started, press 

Start/Pause

. Lift the lid and submerge additional items next to the agitator. Close the lid and press 

Start

 to resume.

WARNING

- Fire Hazard

USING THE W

ASHER

Getting started - Washer

Proper Use of Detergent

Using too little or too much detergent is a common cause 

of laundry problems. 
Use less detergent if you have soft water, a smaller load or 

a lightly soiled load.
For spots, apply pre-treatment to items as recommended on 

the product label. Application should be made in the basket to 

prevent overspray which may cause the coloring on the lid or 

graphics to fade.
Place detergent packets in the bottom of the wash basket 
before adding clothes. 

We recommend the use of High Efficiency detergents such 
as 

in your energy efficient washer. HE detergents are 

formulated to work with low water wash and rinse systems. 
HE detergents reduce the oversudsing problems commonly 
associated with regular detergents.

When using high efficiency or concentrated detergents, 

consult the product label to determine amount required for 

optimum performance. Excessive detergent will negatively 

impact wash performance.

Loading the Washer (on models with an infusor)

Load dry items loosely in the washer basket. For best results, load items evenly and 

loosely around the outside of the basket, filling in towards the center on larger loads.  

To add items after washer has started, press 

Start/Pause

. Lift the lid and submerge 

additional items around the outside of the basket. Close the lid and press 

Start

 to resume.

Ŷ

  Do not place large items such as 

sheets, blankets and towels across 

the Infusor. Load them around the 

outside of the basket.

Ŷ

 Do not wash fabrics containing 

flammable materials (waxes, 

cleaning fluids, etc.).

Ŷ

  Wash action will not start with the 

lid up.

Ŷ

 Do not wrap long items like sheets 

or pants around the agitator.

Ŷ

 Do not wash fabrics containing 

flammable materials (waxes, 

cleaning fluids, etc.).

Ŷ

  Agitation will not start with the lid 

up.
