• When the wash cycle is complete, the CYCLE COMPLETE 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 CYCLE COMPLETE light goes off. To power down the washer manually after the wash cycle is complete, select PAUSE/CANCEL once. 8. To begin the wash cycle later Select DELAY WASH until the desired delay time (in hours) is displayed. Select START. The countdown to the wash cycle will show in the display window. 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 The washer has a dispenser drawer with three separate compartments for your laundry additives-one is for detergent, one is for liquid chlorine bleach, and one is for liquid fabric softener. Laundry additives 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 additives directly into the wash tub. Always use the proper dispensers when adding laundry additives. 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 additives to the proper compartment. 3. Push in the dispenser drawer slowly and completely (to avoid a spill). A C MAX DETERGENT LIQUID BLEACH SOFTENER B MAX D Dispenser A. Dispenser release lever B. Main Wash detergent compartment C.
