OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 4.1 Cu. Ft. Top-Load Washer Using your washer Washing a load of laundry WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before operating this appliance. Selecting a detergent Your washer is designed to use high efficiency (HE) detergents. • For the best cleaning results, use an HE detergent. We recommend that you do not use a regular detergent. HE detergents contain suppressors that reduce or eliminate suds. When fewer suds are produced, the load tumbles more efficiency and cleaning is maximized. • Reducing the amount of detergent may reduce the quality of cleaning. Make sure that you: • Pre-treat stains • Sort carefully by color and soil level • Avoid overloading Step 1: Turn on your washer Press the /Power button to turn on your washer. Your washer's initial settings are: • Normal on cycle selector with -- displayed on the digital display • Medium for the Soil Level • Warm for the Wash Temp Step 2: Load your washer Caution Before loading your laundry, make sure that you remove coins, keys, and other hard objects, and close zippers. These items may damage clothes. 1 Sort laundry by fabric type, soil level, color, and load size. See ONE-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY on page 31. 2 Fill the tub with dry, unfolded clothes. Load the tub no more than 3/4 full. Note • Overloading may reduce washing efficiency, cause excess wear, and possibly cause creasing or wrinkling of the load. • Wash delicate items such as bras, hosiery, and other lingerie on the Delicates cycle with similar lightweight items. • Wash wool items (such as wool sweaters) in the Hand Wash cycle. • When washing big, bulky items (such as rugs or pillows) or a few smaller items (such as stuffed toys or one or two sweaters) that do not fill the tub completely, add a few towels to improve spin performance. • Always use the Bulky cycle for bulky items. • When washing heavily soiled loads, do not overload your washer to ensure good cleaning results.
