Starting Your Washer

1. Measure detergent and pour it into the washer. If desired, add 

powdered or liquid colour safe bleach. If the water 
temperature is too low, dilute the detergent in warm water. 
Add extra detergent for the Super Wash cycle. Follow 
detergent manufacturer’s directions. 

Drop a sorted load of clothes loosely into your washer.

Load evenly to maintain washer balance. Mix large and small 
items. Larger items such as sheets should be added last.

Items should move easily through the wash water. 
Overloading can cause poor cleaning.

To reduce wrinkling of permanent press clothes and some 
synthetic knits, use a large load size to provide more space 
(see step 5).

2. (OPTIONAL) Pour measured liquid bleach into the liquid 

bleach dispenser. Bleach will be dispensed automatically 
during the wash part of the cycle. 

Never use more than 250 mL (1 cup) for a full load. Use 
less with a smaller load size.

Follow the manufacturer’s directions for safe use.

To avoid spilling, use a cup with a pouring spout. Do not 
let bleach splash, drip, or run down into the washer 
basket.

Use only liquid bleach in this dispenser.

3. Close the washer lid.

4. Turn the LOAD SIZE selector to the correct setting for your 

wash load and the type of fabric being washed. 

Choose a load size that allows the load to move freely for 
best fabric care. See "Loading."

You may change the load size selection after the washer 
has started filling by turning the selector to a different 
setting.

5. Set the TEMPERATURE selector to the correct setting for the 

type of fabric and soils being washed. Use the warmest water 
safe for fabric. Follow garment label instructions.

Your washer uses 

 

automatic temperature control to maintain 

a uniform water temperature by regulating incoming hot and 
cold water. This helps eliminate undissolved detergent and 
ensures consistent cleaning results. The cold wash is 
regulated at approximately 24ºC (75ºF) by adding small 
amounts of hot water during the cold fill. The warm wash is 
maintained at approximately 38ºC (100ºF).

NOTE: Make sure that both hot and cold water taps are fully 
turned on, or the automatic temperature control feature will 
not work properly. 

Fire Hazard

Never place items in the washer that are 
dampened with petrol or other flammable fluids.

No washer can completely remove oil.

Do not dry anything that has ever had any type of 
oil on it (including cooking oils).

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

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into an earthed plug socket outlet.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in
death, fire, or electrical shock.

Do not use an extension cord.

Do not use an adaptor.
