Before using the washer for the first time, wipe the inside and outside with a
damp cloth to remove any travel dust that has accumulated. Operating a rinse
cycle to rinse out the washer is recommended. Front load, horizontal axis wash-
ing machines require less detergent. Soap suds line should not exceed the
halfway point of the glass door.
To begin a wash load:
• Sort and pre-treat clothes.
• Add the measured amount of detergent suggested by the package
directions (maximum two tablespoons).
• Load the clothes loosely into the washer. Close the washer door.
• Turn the cycle selector knob to the desired temperature setting.
• Decide which washing cycle you wish to use. Turn the timer knob
clockwise to the desired wash setting.
• Select High or Medium spin (only for regular washing).
• Press the push button ON.
• After the cycle is complete, wait two minutes for the door lock to
release before attempting to open the door.
WARNING: Do not wash or dry articles that have previously
been cleaned, washed, soaked or spotted with gasoline, dry
cleaning solvents or other flammable or explosive substances.
Do not add these substances to the wash water as they produce
vapors that could ignite or explode. Do not use dryer to dry
articles containing foam rubber or similar textured, rubber-
like materials. Clean the lint screen after each use (if applica-
ble), located in the top left corner on the back of the washer.
Keep the area around the exhaust opening and adjacent areas
free from lint, dust and dirt accumulation.
The removable drain screen, which protects the pump from lint and foreign
matter, needs to be cleaned periodically. The frequency in which it is cleaned
depends upon the type of clothes that are washed. Cotton articles produce
more lint than nylon articles. Under no circumstance should the drain screen
be removed while the machine is full of water. To clean the drain screen on
an empty machine, open the service door by pressing on the left hand side.
Place a cloth or shallow tray under the drain screen housing to catch any
remaining water that may drip out. It may be helpful to first set the machine
to spin, then remove the drain screen. This procedure reduces the amount of
water released. Turn the drain screen counterclockwise and pull the drain
screen out. Clean the screen to remove any dirt and lint. To replace the
screen, slide it back into the housing and turn it clockwise to secure. Close
the service door.
NOTE: Check for water leaks before using the washer after
removing and replacing the drain screen.
