You will hear the door locking, unlocking, and locking

again. This is normal.

If you do not press START/PAUSE within 5 minutes of

choosing a cycle, the washer automatically shuts off.

When the wash cycle is complete, the DONE status light

illuminates, the door unlocks, and the wash load can be

removed from the washer. The washer powers down

automatically 5 minutes after the cycle is complete and the

DONE light goes off until door is opened. To power down

the washer manually after the wash cycle is complete, press

POWER/CANCEL once.

8. To begin the wash cycle later

Press DELAY START until the desired delay time (in hours) is

displayed. Press START/PAUSE. The indicator will remain

illuminated during the desired time selected.
IMPORTANT: When delaying a cycle, use only powdered

detergents in the main wash compartment since liquid

detergents may seep out of the compartment during Delay,

before the wash cycle begins.

Using the Dispenser

Your new washer has a dispenser drawer with three separate

compartments for your laundry products—detergent, liquid chlorine

bleach, and liquid fabric softener. Laundry products are diluted and

dispensed automatically at the proper time during the wash cycle,

making it unnecessary for you to return to the washer during the

cycle to add them.
It is normal for small amounts of water to remain in the dispensers

when the wash cycle is complete.
Do not put laundry products directly into the wash tub. Always use

the proper dispensers when adding laundry products.

Choosing the Right Detergent

Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package for this type of

detergent will be marked “HE” or “High Efficiency.” This wash

system, along with less water, will create too much sudsing with a

regular non-HE detergent. Using regular detergent will likely result in

washer errors, longer cycle times, and reduced rinsing performance. It

may also result in component failures and noticeable mold or mildew.

HE detergents are made to produce the right amount of suds for the

best performance. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to

determine the amount of detergent to use.

Use only HE High Efficiency detergent.

To fill dispenser compartments

1. Pull out the dispenser drawer.
2. Add the desired laundry products to the proper compartment.

3. Push in the dispenser drawer slowly and completely (to avoid a

spill).

Main Wash detergent compartment

(Letter B in Dispenser Illustration)
Add liquid or powdered HE detergent to this compartment for your

main wash cycle.

Liquid color-safe bleach or oxi products may be added to the

Main Wash compartment along with liquid detergent.

Powdered color-safe bleach or oxi products may be added to the

Main Wash compartment along with the powdered detergent.

Do not mix powdered and liquid products in the Main Wash

compartment.

Use the measurement device which comes with the detergent.

Add no more than the manufacturer's recommended amount.

NOTE: Overfilling could cause an oversudsing condition.

Chlorine bleach compartment

(Letter C in Dispenser Illustration)
Add NO MORE THAN 2/3 cup (160 mL) liquid chlorine bleach to

this compartment. The bleach will be automatically diluted and

dispensed at the best time during the first rinse after the wash cycle.

This compartment cannot dilute powdered bleach.

Use only liquid chlorine bleach in this dispenser. Do not use this

dispenser to add powdered chlorine or any form of color-safe

bleach or oxi products to your load.

Always measure liquid chlorine bleach. Use a measuring cup
with a pour spout; do not guess. Follow the manufacturer’s

directions for proper use.

Do not fill beyond the “MAX” level.

NOTE: Overfilling could cause garment damage.

Fabric softener compartment

(Letter D in Dispenser Illustration)
Follow the manufacturer's instructions to determine the amount of

fabric softener to use. Fabric softener will be automatically

dispensed in the final rinse or in the 2nd Rinse, if selected.

Do not fill beyond the “MAX” level.

Pausing or Restarting
