OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
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: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to
persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS,
located in your appliance's Owner's Manual, before operating
this appliance.
NOTES:
■ Not all features and cycles are on all models, and control
panel appearance may vary.
■ If your model has a touch interface, the control panel
features a sensitive surface that responds to a light touch of
your finger. To ensure your selections are registered, touch
the control panel with your fingertip, not your fingernail.
When selecting a setting or option, simply touch its name.
■ If your model has physical buttons, make sure to press the
button firmly.
■ At cycle completion, your setting and option choices will be
remembered for the next cycle. However, if power to the
washer is lost, the settings and options will go back to the
factory defaults.
Button Descriptions
SOIL LEVEL
Select the setting most suitable for your load. For heavily soiled and
sturdy fabrics, select Heavy Soil Level for more wash time. For lightly
soiled and delicate fabrics, select Light Soil Level for less wash time.
A lighter soil-level setting will help reduce tangling and wrinkling.
WASH TEMP
Wash Temp senses and maintains uniform water temperatures by
regulating incoming hot and cold water.
Select a wash temperature based on the type of fabric and soils
being washed. For best results, follow the garment label instructions
using the warmest wash water safe for your fabric.
NOTES:
■ On some models and cycles, warm and hot water may be cooler
than your previous washer.
■ Even in a cold- or cool-water wash, some warm water may be added
to the washer to maintain a minimum temperature. All rinses are
cold.
WASH CYCLE KNOB
Use the Wash Cycle knob to select available cycles on your washer.
Turn the knob to select a cycle for your laundry load. See online "Cycle
Guide" for detailed descriptions.
RINSE OPTIONS
The following options may be added to most cycles. See online "Cycle
Guide" for additional details.
1 Rinse
This option is used to limit a cycle to one rinse.
2 Rinses
This option can be used to automatically add a second rinse to all wash
cycles.
1 Rinses with Softener
This option must be selected if using fabric softener during a cycle. It
ensures that the water levels are correct for optimal fabric softener
distribution.
2 Rinses with Softener
This option turns on both the fabric softener and the 2 Rinses option.
PRESOAK
Use this option to add an extra soak period to any cycle to help loosen
tough stains. The washer will fill and then alternate between a soak and
a gentle agitation before beginning the selected cycle.
Adding Laundry Products
IMPORTANT: Using non-HE detergent will likely result in longer cycle times and reduced rinsing performance. It may also result in component malfunction and, over time, buildup of mold or mildew. HE detergents
should be low-sudsing and quick-dispersing to produce the right amount of suds for the best performance.
Adding HE detergent to basket:
Add a measured amount of HE detergent or single-dose laundry
packets into the basket. If using Oxi-type boosters, color-safe bleach,
or fabric softener crystals, add to the bottom of the washer basket
before adding clothes.
NOTE: Follow the manufacturer's instructions to determine the
amount of laundry products to use.

Top Load Washer Quick Start Guide
Step 1. Add HE Detergent
NOTE: See the "Adding
Laundry Products" section for
more information on adding HE
detergent, fabric softener, and/
or bleach.
Step 2. Load Clothes
For best results, load garments
in loose heaps evenly around
the basket wall.
Step 3. Close Lid; then Select
Cycle and Settings
Step 4. Press Start/Pause/Cancel
START/PAUSE BUTTON
Press to start the selected cycle; press again to pause the cycle and
unlock the lid.
NOTE: If the washer is spinning, it may take several minutes to unlock
the lid.
Sensing
When the Start/Pause button is pressed, the washer will fill to an initial
water level and begin sensing to determine the load size. The washer
will then continue filling to the appropriate water level based on load
size and proceed to Wash.
If the lid is opened or the Start/Pause button is pressed, the cycle will
pause. Closing the lid and/or pressing the Start/Pause button will
resume the cycle. If the cycle remains paused with the lid open for 10
minutes, the washer will pump out the water.
Wash
During the first stage of the sensing/wash cycle, water will partially fill
the washer and begin to move the load. It is normal to have the sensing
light on during this stage. You will hear the agitator rotate followed by a
several second pause. This process will repeat for several minutes,
allowing the entire load to become saturated. The lower water level
combined with HE detergent at this stage allows for concentrated
cleaning. It is normal for the load to be above the water line during this
stage. At the beginning of the second stage, the washer will add water
to the correct level based on the load size. You will hear the agitator
increase speed during this stage of the wash cycle. The motor sounds
may change at different stages in the wash cycle.
Adding liquid chlorine bleach:
Do not overfill, dilute, or use more than 1 cup (236
mL). Do not use color-safe bleach or Oxi products
in the same cycle with liquid chlorine bleach.
NOTE: Follow the manufacturer's instructions to
determine the amount of laundry products to use.

PROGRESS
The Progress lights show the progress of a cycle. At each stage of the
process, you may notice sounds or pauses that are different from your
previous washers.
Rinse
Certain cycles use a spray rinse, which adds water to the tub while the
basket spins. You may hear sounds similar to the wash cycle as the
washer rinses and moves the load. You may hear the motor turning on
briefly (short hum) to move the basket while filling.
Spin
The washer spins the load at increasing speeds for proper water
removal, based on the selected cycle and spin speed.
Done
Once the cycle is complete, the lid will unlock and this light will come on.
For best results, promptly remove the load.
Locked
The Lock feature allows for higher spin speeds. When lit, the lid is
locked and cannot be opened without pausing the cycle. When the light
is off, the lid can be opened.
To open the lid after it has been locked, press Start/Pause. The lid will
unlock once the washer movement has stopped. This may take several
minutes if the load was spinning at high speed. Press Start/Pause while
the lid is closed to resume the cycle.
Adding Liquid Fabric Softener:
IMPORTANT: Rinse option must be selected to 1 Rinse with Softener or 2 Rinses with
Softener to ensure proper distribution at correct time in cycle. Do not overfill or dilute.
During the final rinse, wait until the washer has completed filling and press the Start/Pause
button to pause the washer. Lift the lid and add the measured, recommended amount of
liquid fabric softener. Do not use more than the recommended amount. Close the lid and
press the Start/Pause button again to start the washer.
