Starting Your Washer
1. Measure detergent and pour it into the washer. If desired, add
powdered or liquid color safe bleach. Add extra detergent for
the Super Wash cycle.
Drop a sorted load of clothes loosely into your washer.
■ Load evenly to maintain washer balance. Mix large and
small items.
■ 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 4).
2. (OPTIONAL STEP) Pour measured liquid chlorine bleach
into the liquid chlorine bleach dispenser (on some models).
Bleach will be diluted automatically during the wash part of
the cycle.
■ Never use more than 1 cup (250 mL) 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 chlorine bleach in this dispenser.
NOTE: On models without a bleach dispenser, see "Adding
Liquid Chlorine Bleach."
3. Close the washer lid.
4. Turn the LOAD SIZE selector (on some models) 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 (on some models) to the
correct setting for the type of fabric and soils being washed.
Use the warmest water safe for fabric. Follow garment label
instructions.
NOTE: On models with temperature selections in the Cycle
Control knob, see "Cycle Time and Temperature Options" in
the "Selecting A Cycle and Time" section.
NOTE: In wash water temperatures colder than 70ºF
(21ºC), detergents do not dissolve well. Soils can be difficult
to remove. Some fabrics can retain wear wrinkles and have
increased pilling (the formation of small lint-like balls on the
surface of garments).
Fire Hazard
Never place items in the washer that are
dampened with gasoline 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 a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in
death, fire, or electrical shock.
Do not use an extension cord.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not remove ground prong.
