Whirlpool WET3300SQ User Instructions - Page 5

To find out whether your model allows fabric softener dispenser usage and for information on ordering, refer to the front page of this manual or call the dealer from whom you purchased your washer/dryer. Ask for Part Number 3350834. NOTE: Do not spill or drip any fabric softener onto the clothes. Undiluted fabric softener can stain fabrics. Always dilute fabric softener with warm water. Too much fabric softener can make some items (diapers and towels) nonabsorbent. If this happens, do not use it in every load, or use less of it in each load. Style 1: With liquid fabric softener dispenser (on some models) ■ Use only liquid fabric softener in this dispenser. Pour measured liquid fabric softener into the dispenser. Softener is added automatically during the rinse portion of the cycle. Dilute liquid fabric softener by filling the dispenser with warm water until liquid reaches the crossbar in the dispenser opening. 4. Close the washer lid. Washer will not agitate or spin with the lid open. 5. Turn the WATER LEVEL selector to the correct setting for your wash load and the type of fabric being washed. You may change the load size or water level selection after the washer has started filling by turning the selector to a different setting. 6. Set the TEMPERATURE selector 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: In wash water temperatures colder than 60ºF (15.6ºC), 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). 7. Push in the Cycle Control knob and turn it clockwise to the wash cycle you want. Reduce the wash time when using a small load size setting. Pull out the Cycle Control knob to start the washer. Style 2: Without liquid fabric softener dispenser (on some models) ■ In the final rinse ONLY, add fabric softener that has been diluted with ¹⁄₂ to 1 cup (125 to 250 mL) warm water. To stop or restart your washer: ■ To stop the washer at any time, push in the Cycle Control knob. ■ To restart the washer, close the lid (if open) and pull out the Cycle Control knob. WARNING DRYER USE Starting Your Dryer WARNING Explosion Hazard Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from dryer. Do not dry anything that has ever had anything flammable on it (even after washing). Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, explosion, or fire. Fire Hazard No washer can completely remove oil. Do not dry anything that has ever had any type of oil on it (including cooking oils). Items containing foam, rubber, or plastic must be dried on a clothesline or by using an Air Cycle. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or fire. This booklet covers several different models. Your dryer may not have all of the cycles and features described. Before using your dryer, wipe the dryer drum with a damp cloth to remove dust from storing and shipping. 1. Clean lint screen before each load. See "Cleaning the Lint Screen." 2. Load clothes loosely into the dryer and close the door. Do not pack the dryer. Allow space for clothes to tumble freely. 3. Turn the Cycle Control knob to the recommended cycle for the type of load being dried. Use the Energy Preferred Automatic Setting to dry most heavy to medium weight fabrics. 4. (OPTIONAL) Your dryer may have an END OF CYCLE SIGNAL. The signal is helpful when drying items that should be removed from the dryer as soon as it stops. The End of Cycle signal is part of the Start button and is selectable. Turn the Start button to ON or OFF. The signal will sound only if the selector is set to On. 5. If desired, add fabric softener sheet. Follow package instructions. 6. Press the PUSH TO START button. 5
