Hand Washables cycle

This cycle features a series of brief, low-speed agitations and

short soaks to gently clean special-care items. Low spin speeds

minimize wrinkling. Wash small loads. If items appear to be

floating (due to trapped air), stop the washer by pushing in the

Cycle Control knob. Push items down into the washer. Restart

the washer.

Quick Wash cycle

This cycle features low-speed agitation for gentle soil removal,

while providing high spin speeds to shorten drying times. Select

this cycle for small loads of lightly soiled items that you need in a

hurry.

Soak cycle

This cycle features brief periods of agitation and soak time to

remove heavy soils and stains that need pretreatment. Use warm

water when soaking laundry. Hot water can set stains. Use the

amount of detergent or presoak additive recommended by the

manufacturer. When the Soak cycle ends, add detergent and

start a new wash cycle.

Prewash cycle

This cycle feature a brief period of high-speed agitation to help

remove heavy soils and stains that need pretreatment. Use warm

water for prewashing stained laundry. Hot water can set some

stains. After the Prewash cycle ends, add detergent and select a

new wash cycle.

Rinse and Spin

When using extra detergent for heavily soiled clothes, or washing

special-care items, you may find an extra rinse and spin is

needed.

1. Push in the Cycle Control knob and turn it clockwise to any of

the Rinse settings.

2. Pull out the Cycle Control knob. The washer fills to the

selected load size, agitates, drains, and spins.

NOTE: An Extra Rinse option is available (on some models). See

"Starting Your Washer."

Drain and Spin

A drain and spin may help shorten drying times for some heavy

fabrics or special-care items by removing excess water.

1. Push in the Cycle Control knob and turn it clockwise to any of

the Spin settings.

2. Pull out the Cycle Control knob. The washer drains, then

spins.

Adding Liquid Chlorine Bleach

Always measure liquid chlorine bleach. Do not guess. Never use

more than 1 cup (250 mL) for a full load. Follow manufacturer's

directions for safe use. Use a cup with a pouring spout to avoid

spilling.

1. Let the washer fill and begin agitating the load.

2. Add bleach to the wash cycle so it can be removed in the

rinse cycle. Pour bleach around the agitator, not directly on

the load.

Follow directions on the care labels. Do not use chlorine

bleach on wool, silk, spandex, acetates, or some flame-

retardant fabrics.

When soaking with chlorine bleach, add detergent to

soak water.

NOTE: Undiluted bleach will damage any fabric it touches. The

damage appears as rips, holes, tears, or color loss and may not

show up until several washings later.

Adding Liquid Fabric Softener

Always dilute fabric softener with ½ to 1 cup (125 to 250 mL)

warm water. Undiluted fabric softener can stain fabrics.

Add diluted fabric softener only in the final rinse.

Fabric softener should not be mixed with other laundry

products. Greasy stains can form. To remove greasy stains,

wet the stain and rub with liquid detergent or a bar of soap.

Rewash.

Too much fabric softener can make some items (diapers and

towels) nonabsorbent. If this happens, use less fabric

softener, or do not use it every time.

WASHER CARE

Cleaning Your Washer

Cleaning the exterior

Use a soft, damp cloth or sponge to wipe up any spills such as

detergent or bleach. Occasionally wipe the outside of your

washer to keep it looking new.

Cleaning the interior

Clean your washer interior by mixing 1 cup (250 mL) of chlorine

bleach and 2 cups (500 mL) of detergent. Pour this into your

washer and run it through a complete cycle using hot water.

Repeat this process if necessary.

NOTE: Remove any hard water deposits using only cleaners

labeled as washer safe.

Cleaning the liquid fabric softener dispenser

Flush dispenser periodically with warm water, as shown. Remove

the dispenser by grasping the top of the dispenser with both

hands and squeezing and pushing upwards with thumbs. Clean

the dispenser by rinsing it under a water faucet. Replace it after

cleaning.

NOTE: Do not wash clothes with this dispenser removed. Do not

add detergent or bleach to this dispenser; it is for liquid fabric

softener use only.

Water Inlet Hoses

Replace inlet hoses after five years of use to reduce the risk of

hose failure. Periodically inspect and replace inlet hoses if

bulges, kinks, cuts, wear or leaks are found.

When replacing your inlet hoses, mark the date of replacement

on the label with a permanent marker.
