Single-dose laundry packets, Oxi-type boosters, color-safe
bleach, or scented crystals can be added to the drum prior
to adding laundry. When using single-dose laundry packets,
make sure that the bulk dispenser is disabled or off (see
Step 12).
NOTE:
Always follow manufacturer’s instructions.
Using Your Washer
Sort items by recommended cycle, water temperature,
and colorfastness. Separate heavily soiled items from lightly
soiled. Separate delicate items from sturdy fabrics. Treat
stains promptly and check for colorfastness by testing stain
remover products on an inside seam.
IMPORTANT:
n
Empty pockets. Loose change, buttons, or any small
object can plug pumps and may require a service call.
n
Close zippers, fasten hooks, tie strings and sashes,
and remove non-washable trim and ornaments.
n
Mend rips and tears to avoid further damage to items
during washing.
n
Turn knits inside out to prevent pilling. Separate lint-takers
from lint-givers. Synthetics, knits, and corduroy fabrics will
pick up lint from towels, rugs, and chenille fabrics.
n
Do not dry garments if stains remain after washing,
because heat can set stains into fabric.
n
Always read and follow fabric care labels and laundry
product instructions. Improper usage may cause damage
to your garments.

Sort and prepare your laundry
First wash cycle without laundry
Before washing clothes for the first time, set up the Load & Go™
bulk dispenser or add detergent to the single-dose dispenser
(see the “Using the Dispensers” section). Choose the Regular
(what to wash) and Quick (how to wash) cycle and run it without
clothes. Use only HE detergent. This initial cycle serves to ensure
the interior is clean.
Place a load of sorted items loosely in the washer. Items need
to move freely for best cleaning and to reduce wrinkling and
tangling. If using the drying option, loading the drum half full
or less and not interrupting the drying cycle by opening the
door will improve drying performance and cycle time. Close
the washer door by pushing it firmly until the latch clicks.
n
Push load fully into the washer. Make sure no items are
resting on the rubber seal to avoid trapping them between
the seal and the door window.
n
Mix large and small items and avoid washing single items.
Load evenly.
n
Wash small items in mesh garment bags. For multiple
items, use more than one bag and fill bags equally.
