It explains these operating steps in detail.
1. Sort laundry into loads that can be washed
together.
2. Prepare items for washing.
3. Pretreat stains and heavy soil.
4. Add the measured amount of detergent to
wash tub before adding the laundry load.
5. If desired, add liquid bleach to bleach dispenser.
DO NOT pour bleach directly onto the load.
6. If desired, add liquid fabric softener to fabric
softener dispenser . DO NOT pour fabric softener
directly onto wash load.
7. Add laundry load loosely to wash tub. Dry load
should not be higher than top of agitator
vanes. For best results, DO NOT overload.
8. Select the wash cycle and settings according to
type, size and soil level of each load.
9. Close lid and pull out Cycle Selector knob to
start washer.
The washer will fill with water but will
not agitate or spin with the lid open.
To stop the washer, push in the Cycle Selector knob.
To change a cycle, push in the Cycle Selector knob
and turn it clockwise to the desired setting. Pull out
the knob to restart the washer.
10. Remove items at end of cycle.
Wait about 2-3
minutes for safety lid lock to release.
Cycle Selection
Push in and turn the Cycle Selector knob
clockwise to the desired cycle. For best results,
follow the washing instructions on the fabric
care labels.
The Whites, Colors and Knits & Delicates cycles
progress through wash agitation, drain and spin
with a spray rinse, rinse agitation, and a final spin.
Whites Cycle
This cycle provides up to 15 minutes of normal agitation
and a fast spin for most fabrics.
Power Spin
provides 12 minutes of spin for maximum
removal of water. This conserves energy by reducing
drying time.
Extra Rinse Cycle
Use the Extra Rinse cycle after any complete wash
cycle when an additional deep rinse may be needed
to remove excess detergent and soil. It provides 3
minutes of rinse agitation in cold water, followed by a
spray rinse at the selected rinse water temperature
during spin.
If desired, add liquid fabric softener to this rinse
(not the fabric softener dispenser) or use a softener
sheet in the dryer. DO NOT pour fabric softener
directly onto the load.
